Reluctant Blogger

I have rather reluctantly joined the blogging world. In the past few years, I have weaned myself off a terrible My Space habit and successfully avoided the Facebook frenzy (to which even my dad has succumbed). Now with my sister's recent wedding and maternity leave, she has had the time and need to start blogging. Trying to be a devoted aunt, I began following Baby Rocky's first blog and then out of fairness I have added Baby AJ, my older nephew. When I saw that my sisters had both managed to track down friends (mainly Lindsay), I began to see the value.

This seems to be a great way to keep up with people and let them know what I have been up to, which is mainly work and school. 2008 was a crazy year. I got a new brother in law and nephew. I finished clearing my Education Specialist Credential and gained permanency in my school district. Rob and I traveled a little: Mexico, Grassvalley, Lake San Antonio, Indian Wells, Laughlin.

This has also been a year full of keeping up with Kobe, the cutest and craziest cat ever. Our baby boy has grown so much and just had his second birthday. He now is able to jump on top the refrigerator from a sitting position on the kitchen floor. Kobe has learned to open all of our closets and cabinets this year too. With age has come something far sweeter though, he now sleeps the entire night curled between our heads on the bed. Once you see past the broken dishes and bite marks, Kobe has the best personality I have ever seen in a cat. He plays fetch, greets you at the door, and follows you around the house much like a dog.
