This past week was my 24th birthday. It feels weird saying that I'm 24. I still feel like I'm like 19 or 20. My students knew my birthday was coming up and so they asked me how old I was turning. When I told them I would be 24, they were in shock. One little boy said, "What? I thought you were like 18!" Another girl said, "Ya, you dress like you're in highschool or something." LOL. I took it as a compliment.
Marlin and Cante came up to my class to bring cupcakes for my birthday. My students loved meeting them. All the girls loved seeing Cante and all the boys were excited to meet Marlin..and get the cupcakes.
We celebrated by going out to Red Robin. Crystal, Spencer, Hina, Tristan, Lakia, Eric, Erica, Leatha, Jaya, Raja, Tama, Abe, Amber, Sariah, Warrior, Marlin, and Cante were all there. We had a good time. It was nice to catch up with everyone..I feel like we have been so busy lately. I hadn't even seen Crystal since Tristan was born..which was like 2 months ago!

November 13, 2011
We have had a busy week this week! I had parent teacher conferences on Wednesday and Thursday night. Marlin's birthday was on Wednesday, but we didn't get to celebrate because of my conferences. On Tuesday night we had mutual, and on Friday we went to the Living Legends show to see Eric perform. He did such a good job. I was so proud of him. Cante looooved watching the show. We thought she would stay awake for the first part and then eventually fall asleep, but she was wide awake the whole time. Marlin says that Aztec was her favorite number....she was jumping up and down during that one.
Cante's first teeth are coming in. We can see her two bottom teeth. She has been a little fussy but not too bad. She just puts everything in her mouth and likes sucking on her pacifier because it puts pressure on her gums. She loses her appetite and has trouble staying asleep during the day...but luckily we havent had too many problems at night.
I can't believe she is almost 5 months old! Marlin and I keep saying that we wish we could freeze her so she could stay this age forever. She gets cuter and cuter everyday though. She smiles at everyone..sings..talks..and giggles when we tickle her. She is trying to sit up on her own now..but still can't do it. I have read that you can't feed babies solids until they can sit up on their own. We are both anxious/excited to introduce her to some of our favorite fruits and veggies...only 1 more month hopefully.
Last night, I got onto new.familysearch.org and found out that Marlin has some ancestors whose work is ready to be done in the temple! We were so excited! We reserved the names and will hopefully get them done within the next month. It is actually his great grandparents on his mom's side. We have been trying to do names for the past 6 months or so but realized that we were using the wrong website the whole time. We were using familysearch.org not newfamilysearch. I knew it wasn't matching up right, I just didn't know why. So now I am pumped again and so excited!
Well we have a lot to look forward to in the next couple months with Thanksgiving and Christmas around the corner.. I will do my best to keep everything updated :)
