Many things have changed since then such as:<br />
1 We no longer live in Moore, Ok.<br />
2 Tim graduated from OU Medical School in May 2011.<br />
3 We no longer have 3 kids but 4!<br />
4 Spencer Hancock Dorius was born on July 30, 2012.<br />
5 We moved to Omaha, Ne in June 2011 where Tim is doing his residency in Internal Medice.<br />
<br />
I think those are main changes in our lives.<br />
I decided to update this blog mainly as a way to keep track of all the adventures in our lives.<br />

A few weeks ago we tried having Ashley and Lucas sleep together in the same room which so far hasn't worked out very well. Lucas goes to bed early and gets up early and Ashley is the complete opposite. After several visits to their room to tell them to go to bed we found Lucas lying on Ashley's bed. It was so cute and they both asked if they could sleep together. It didn't happen because Ashley ended up falling asleep before Lucas and he kept trying to wake her up so he had to go back to his bed.Cristinahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/09317951235431280063noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2316579768672564316.post-18325527135369919722009-06-28T11:22:00.000-07:002009-06-28T11:28:53.879-07:00Happy Birthday, Lucas!!<a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgZ3e56YKXca_Mm6g-pCYBqaB1ZTL3gF-bsQuSImJ9gyCgAjtWH4ZdEc1jj4OF-dPMnK7OqzEAAw54sFHkYUh7TRPF92dTMZo7J8LD1yDWNiQu_7SplYZRJ0q8IuxsyeyP6hLGFwInLFVY0/s1600-h/IMG_0171.JPG"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 150px; height: 200px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgZ3e56YKXca_Mm6g-pCYBqaB1ZTL3gF-bsQuSImJ9gyCgAjtWH4ZdEc1jj4OF-dPMnK7OqzEAAw54sFHkYUh7TRPF92dTMZo7J8LD1yDWNiQu_7SplYZRJ0q8IuxsyeyP6hLGFwInLFVY0/s200/IMG_0171.JPG" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5352446230836893874" /></a><br /><br />Lucas is our funny kid.

He is constantly doing something to make us laugh. He knows he is funny so he does funny things all the time. He LOVES to get attention from us. He is our eater. He eats almost anything. I would say that his favorite foods are meat ( any kind) and chocolate milk. Another thing that he LOVES is candy. There isn't one day that goes by without him asking for a piece. At times when he gets mad at you he will ask for a piece of candy and I can only imagine this 18 month-old boy saying, "If you give that to me I won't be mad at you anymore". Lucas is very attached to us and to close friends. He will talk to people he doesn't know but we need to be by his side. He loves animals (any kind) especially dogs and cats (he is allergic to both of them...I am fine with that) He is also a big dancer. Both of my kids love to dance and Lucas is pretty good at it for a boy. I think it'll be fun to go dancing with him when he is older...Tim says that is NOT a good idea but I don't see anything wrong with it except some girls being jealous of me and my cute boy. Lucas is super active. He is always into things such as plugging and unplugging anything he finds (just like his dad) He won't sit down and watch TV. When reading books he won't sit still for more than 3 min. He doesn't walk, he jumps. Now that he is not able to jump in the trampoline outside, he has been jumping in small indoor trampoline he have. I just don't know how he does it. Lucas is an awesome sleeper. We put him in bed around 8:00pm and he doesn't wake up until 8:30am or 9:00am. I love it!! After lunch he takes another 2 hour (or more) nap. At night if I happen to be very tired or we are busy we put him in bed and he stays there, and never complains. He is still in a crib because he is too active to be in a big boy's bed and I am not ready to fight with him to go to bed. Lucas looks a lot like Tim and his heart is so tender and sweet as his dad's but he is definitely a mommy's boy and I love it.<br /><br />Ashley:<br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhSIYAj6uOjVJwMw33pk29N1EQV7w5StSyS_ARi31Wfz-jMhPZFrvhsNPvBf3-CZ3Kxk1cKjrwAavehAi5v9sul_GuOXBGW19k7OdiBcyKGzMVnKg17KOeMzQgZYVkqJ6_sSxSzQoGoZjYd/s1600-h/DSC02517.JPG"><img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 150px; height: 200px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhSIYAj6uOjVJwMw33pk29N1EQV7w5StSyS_ARi31Wfz-jMhPZFrvhsNPvBf3-CZ3Kxk1cKjrwAavehAi5v9sul_GuOXBGW19k7OdiBcyKGzMVnKg17KOeMzQgZYVkqJ6_sSxSzQoGoZjYd/s200/DSC02517.JPG" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5300885929525406834" border="0" /></a>She is funny but I don't think she means to be. She is constantly doing and saying funny things and what makes it funny is that she is serious. She has a beautiful smile and when she laughs it melts my heart. Both of my kids' laughs melt my heart. Ashley is a girlie girl but not to the extreme. She loves skirts and dresses but long skirts are her favorite. She likes to play with her dolls and her kitchen and more than anything in this world...she loves to watch TV. She is addicted to any show that has music and dancing. She also enjoys reading books especially whenever Tim has time to do it because he really gets into it and she has a blast!!! I know that she loves me but she is daddy's little girl. Whenever Tim gets home I don't exist anymore. She is so heart broken anytime she gets in trouble with her dad. She just loves him so much and cannot stand the fact that her dad is upset/sad at her for whatever she has done. Ashley is very independent. She can make friends better than anyone I know. She will pretty much talk to anyone and consider that person her friend. She adjusts to changes very well. She is not a problematic child by any means. She is tough and very stubborn (I wonder where that comes from?)<br />I hope she uses that latter in her life for good. When she is set on doing something nothing is going to stop her. She is also my picky eater and I don't blame her, though I wish she would just try, but I am the same way. She eats a very small portion comparing to Lucas who eats just as much as we do (almost). Ashley is such a sweet heart. I won't ever forget one day when we had to take her to the emergency room because she wasn't doing well and after they checked on her and her oxygen level was so low and along with that she had other complications I just lost it and cried and she asked me to hold her and she patted me on my back and told me she was going to be OK. She is my strong girl. She has a very strong spirit and I am so grateful for that.<br /><br />I am so blessed to have them in my life.Cristinahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/09317951235431280063noreply@blogger.com4tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2316579768672564316.post-1616712062764666992009-02-07T19:22:00.000-08:002009-02-07T19:53:32.873-08:00SPOILED!!!<a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjRmapR8vNR8B5BfEfE4cHpPczcxi7pi7L9UPYLZqwJPYdbcYjNYXRYLoc_JrUui_pv-xZIXo2u6jlW1rBeUMXy8cu1yxrFlaSTT0s5wV3x6tzaQt9MCcbDtKnzwzBI0obixFwgDzFODdEG/s1600-h/DSC01604.JPG"><img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 150px; height: 200px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjRmapR8vNR8B5BfEfE4cHpPczcxi7pi7L9UPYLZqwJPYdbcYjNYXRYLoc_JrUui_pv-xZIXo2u6jlW1rBeUMXy8cu1yxrFlaSTT0s5wV3x6tzaQt9MCcbDtKnzwzBI0obixFwgDzFODdEG/s200/DSC01604.JPG" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5300267971898534146" border="0" /></a>I miss baking with Ashley but I have a new helper...Lucas!<br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi38WjzekIQOg6zHdFjLfD5suZbrBXzStgBTK8VEVW6U8KEMI4HV31CoulYN4H9drqXzwgOME84s1Md20XnON7WEWkzxqQinmxuAvQI2G1HShW-5GxDeCJ9i7dx8KeaQs16iFZhcmHhCO4w/s1600-h/DSC02732.JPG"><img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 200px; height: 150px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi38WjzekIQOg6zHdFjLfD5suZbrBXzStgBTK8VEVW6U8KEMI4HV31CoulYN4H9drqXzwgOME84s1Md20XnON7WEWkzxqQinmxuAvQI2G1HShW-5GxDeCJ9i7dx8KeaQs16iFZhcmHhCO4w/s200/DSC02732.JPG" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5300264605450158818" border="0" /></a>Ashley at the airport in Oklahoma City.<br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgM8fS21uJ5T4f48G4BoSDaXDynfHbiF17_l6ahMtdpL2dt2eGvPGf4ec8_qRIbD4dg_27UzngZgP1PEvJNT5f2DaAX5DRmTp0DY6N389oGVTaLUixUZtLbisOby3P_JJYp7tZbBkj3STc6/s1600-h/DSC02726.JPG"><img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 150px; height: 200px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgM8fS21uJ5T4f48G4BoSDaXDynfHbiF17_l6ahMtdpL2dt2eGvPGf4ec8_qRIbD4dg_27UzngZgP1PEvJNT5f2DaAX5DRmTp0DY6N389oGVTaLUixUZtLbisOby3P_JJYp7tZbBkj3STc6/s200/DSC02726.JPG" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5300264599933995538" border="0" /></a>Ashley leaving the house to go to the airport with her Dora backpack. She was so excited to get on an airplane and fly to Paraguay. I just loved to see her so excited!<br /><br />We have missed Ashley a lot since she left more than 3 weeks ago but at the same time we are so happy and proud of her. She has been enjoying playing and swimming with her cousins and spending time with my family. Every day when I talk on the phone with my mom ( and sometimes Ashley too) I laugh as I hear all the crazy and funny things that she has been doing and of course no one says "No" to her so she is LOVING it!! I was so spoiled as a child by my grandparents ( more than I could ever tell) and I am so happy to have Ashley experience the same thing. I am so grateful for grandparents and their role in our lives. I was blessed to have wonderful grandparents and my kids are so blessed to have two sets of awesome grandparents.<br />This morning as we talked to Ashley I told her I would be there in less than a week and that Lucas is coming with me to which she replied..." I don't like Lucas." I thought it was funny till I looked at my innocent little boy and I couldn't believe what she said. My mom mentioned that when they tell her about me and Lucas going down there she acts like she doesn't care. I think that's because she is getting so much attention from everyone and she never gets in trouble, so she knows that is about to end when I get there. Actually, probably not because there are so many people in my family and someone is always ready to spoil a little one but she doesn't know that. As for her getting in trouble, I can't discipline her too much around my parents. To them, the grandchildren are always good and they remind me that "they are just kids and it is normal" so I won't be able to do much...Cristinahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/09317951235431280063noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2316579768672564316.post-69801508436054914722009-01-28T20:44:00.000-08:002009-01-28T22:15:52.242-08:00St. Johns Indoor Triathlon!Last Friday I was able to participate in my last triathlon before the baby comes. It was at St. Johns Health Plaza in Tulsa. I invited my friends Alicia and Ben to participate with me but I soon realized that I wasn't going to be able to do it all by myself ( I could barely run) so we decided to do it as a team. Right when we were ready to sign up Ben decided that he wasn't going to do it so we invited Andrea, Alicia's sister to join us. We were all so excited and fired up that Alicia's family decided to compete against us!!! They are very athletic and they don't need any time to train. It was hilarious! Ben has his own team along with Andrea's husband and sister in law. It was great!!! <br />Ben and I did the swimming together. As a matter of fact we got to swim in the same lane. It wasn't too bad but I could definitely tell that I am pregnant. I was happy with my swimming time though it has gone up since September that it was expected. Alicia did a fantastic job biking. She cut off 7 minutes from her training time; that is amazing to me. Andrea, who doesn't proclaim to be a runner, did an incredible job with her running time. Andrea, though she had a hard time breathing (asthma), did super!!! I am not a runner either but she is able to run 5 minutes faster than me ( she didn't even train for it). Some people are just good. I am sure not one of them. Our team came in first so we were very proud of ourselves. We seriously were not expecting to win but we are very happy that we did and most importantly that we all had a great time. Saturday instead of picking up our medals we decided to go out and celebrate with good food and great company.<br /><br />Here are some pictures of my 5 months pregnant triathlon!!<br /><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiknpZdU2EqJ1UOdECqR9Y0VIaSM_yGPL4bQwCmrVhoE0TzQSJj7WxHknwbTaa6VXPVAEvfaJkq9GfsZtR7ME9LvBIrtnV184yZHmNt9en4MMc-pAp5wA_17LFYTWBajnYWivWLWafEIRWr/s1600-h/DSC02785.JPG"><img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 200px; height: 150px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiknpZdU2EqJ1UOdECqR9Y0VIaSM_yGPL4bQwCmrVhoE0TzQSJj7WxHknwbTaa6VXPVAEvfaJkq9GfsZtR7ME9LvBIrtnV184yZHmNt9en4MMc-pAp5wA_17LFYTWBajnYWivWLWafEIRWr/s200/DSC02785.JPG" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5296587610676670674" border="0" /></a>Ben and I right before the competition started.<br /><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg_JWSvCju4-BZhAEWVjTTQv28V6o8wvWiQ6Ux6Kdo8JsVzMGQ6CJWGIt1X0JArP9hxmLCJonzRtguEVdn4eOaYa4LQYtO-ArAuD6z6rwndFiAy4zMRx-vb-d4XxWHETwWZeVvLlJwH3RQ7/s1600-h/triathlon.JPG"><img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 200px; height: 150px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg_JWSvCju4-BZhAEWVjTTQv28V6o8wvWiQ6Ux6Kdo8JsVzMGQ6CJWGIt1X0JArP9hxmLCJonzRtguEVdn4eOaYa4LQYtO-ArAuD6z6rwndFiAy4zMRx-vb-d4XxWHETwWZeVvLlJwH3RQ7/s200/triathlon.JPG" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5296588706871717970" border="0" /></a>After passing the timing chip to Alicia.

I have one brother and three sisters so I think I know how to handle girls more than boys. The good news is that we are having another baby boy!!! I say it is good because they are cheaper than girls; at least at this age. We are very excited to have another child come into our lives. Ashley and Luke have been such a blessing to us than I can't even put it into words.<br />I do want to share Ashley's response to the news...keeping in mind that all she wanted was a girl!<br />We came home around 8:30am from the doctor's office and decided to wake Ashley up to share the news with her. Here is how it went down:<br />Me: Ashley, guess what?!<br />Ashley (sleepily): What?<br />Me: You are going to have a baby brother!<br />Ashley: Oh, no! We already have a baby brother. Give him (the new baby) to Mama Cristi (my mom).<br />She was so disappointed to find out that she won't have a baby sister, but I think she is getting over it.Cristinahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/09317951235431280063noreply@blogger.com2tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2316579768672564316.post-17822309828322225192009-01-20T15:33:00.000-08:002009-01-26T09:02:51.033-08:00Christmas Break and so much more!<a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEixEFChi3uWaoonvsdkj8dSvzp5L-790ThQUFJk6zF15IaNPi-kZjIjTiFm4qon88ML7Q6HHJKHuZitl4ePb3C-q7Cxrd3kZ3U5Ci2sA64NUQMLsWhYjlvVMeI8v_MNQ3OyYderKeKs8aee/s1600-h/DSC02664.JPG"><img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 200px; height: 150px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEixEFChi3uWaoonvsdkj8dSvzp5L-790ThQUFJk6zF15IaNPi-kZjIjTiFm4qon88ML7Q6HHJKHuZitl4ePb3C-q7Cxrd3kZ3U5Ci2sA64NUQMLsWhYjlvVMeI8v_MNQ3OyYderKeKs8aee/s200/DSC02664.JPG" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5293531534244289922" border="0" /></a>The 4 "girls" enjoying Las Vegas!!<br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjQ6BpX4o93eDiW3dlLhlipV0LIDmZxXbsNYjgbrYvK2dDtE1Yf4z1g07Wr8Ieaw8XBu2RElJI9Mt7j9J6Kqz5R_14yRTGZVNxJ-SWVNhLJ_mP-nIFYS2Pboj7fTpkJTqHto_5r5dcVYBCG/s1600-h/DSC02630.JPG"><img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 200px; height: 150px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjQ6BpX4o93eDiW3dlLhlipV0LIDmZxXbsNYjgbrYvK2dDtE1Yf4z1g07Wr8Ieaw8XBu2RElJI9Mt7j9J6Kqz5R_14yRTGZVNxJ-SWVNhLJ_mP-nIFYS2Pboj7fTpkJTqHto_5r5dcVYBCG/s200/DSC02630.JPG" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5293530848761265682" border="0" /></a>My mom and Lucas.<br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEic1lWHH9PImhQdmuFuxdMDzu9rF6vclsBQH2E7FxjL4zFzdUvWvDP5WRbP7EtKufk-NPGA76O-WAgpO8hclq347Up4BXomAl9TFF7P2XYUZbzLxlgrAZpmTi_8XUxr8oAsRO6v9-2RFuRm/s1600-h/DSC02627.JPG"><img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 200px; height: 150px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEic1lWHH9PImhQdmuFuxdMDzu9rF6vclsBQH2E7FxjL4zFzdUvWvDP5WRbP7EtKufk-NPGA76O-WAgpO8hclq347Up4BXomAl9TFF7P2XYUZbzLxlgrAZpmTi_8XUxr8oAsRO6v9-2RFuRm/s200/DSC02627.JPG" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5293530841623708418" border="0" /></a>Ashley having fun playing with the snow in Flagstaff, Arizona.<br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj0QKPxECNfKR-2BCDFDfAjx3YdT7KiMFBJDcpz64W5Zt6-ujZXmaFvdGgdKBmtBIvlpXUKytaMU4V4c6HxMhfiCnCkj8SuAoQAefs9h0zk1qVp32UFV05oylKe-nRqDluHXkZjXFN8iJ5w/s1600-h/DSC02645.JPG"><img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 200px; height: 150px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj0QKPxECNfKR-2BCDFDfAjx3YdT7KiMFBJDcpz64W5Zt6-ujZXmaFvdGgdKBmtBIvlpXUKytaMU4V4c6HxMhfiCnCkj8SuAoQAefs9h0zk1qVp32UFV05oylKe-nRqDluHXkZjXFN8iJ5w/s200/DSC02645.JPG" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5293526710870578418" border="0" /></a>Cristi, Ashley, me and my mom in Las Vegas!<br /><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgSarELJovFwtCivftRKiJLox23QcP-PdP1F_hFcaXI4kQ2CG0twOeXk87G0FKIUkPAqQ76yxUhkAjI19Nj0RjCWrA0Cgvl3LJEMT7DuFLW4u1znXlbV9-dd7D1k8W2FTW8F3FTHLMdEcuV/s1600-h/DSC02605.JPG"><img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 200px; height: 150px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgSarELJovFwtCivftRKiJLox23QcP-PdP1F_hFcaXI4kQ2CG0twOeXk87G0FKIUkPAqQ76yxUhkAjI19Nj0RjCWrA0Cgvl3LJEMT7DuFLW4u1znXlbV9-dd7D1k8W2FTW8F3FTHLMdEcuV/s200/DSC02605.JPG" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5293526698132154018" border="0" /></a>My mom's turkey!

We don't understand how she did not wake up with all the noise around us.<br /><br />We are back!!! It has been such a long time since I posted something on the blog. As most of you know my mom was here visiting over Christmas break so I was very busy having fun with her and family. She went back to Paraguay over a week ago and took my sweet little girl with her. Ashley is loving being in Paraguay for many reasons. Every time we talk to her she is on her way out to a party or the pool or someone's house. She is never home!!! My dad says that their house is like a "hotel" for her, she only comes to eat, shower and sleep! I am so happy that my family has the opportunity to spend time with her and that Ashley also has the opportunity to be there and associate with my parents, siblings, cousins, etc. They all love having her around.<br /><br />During Christmas break we decided to go on vacation to Las Vegas! We went there for New Year's Eve and stayed there for a week. We all had a great time. Tim and I were able to go to some shows by ourselves while my mom babysat for us at the hotel. We went to see David Copperfield, Lance Burton, and some other great shows.Cristinahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/09317951235431280063noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2316579768672564316.post-8935499891306256632008-12-12T20:37:00.000-08:002008-12-12T22:21:39.607-08:00Busy, busy, busy...Like most of you, we have also been so busy getting ready for Christmas and as Ashley would say "Don't forget about" Mama Cristi. My mom is getting into town tomorrow morning and we are all so excited. Ashley thinks that as soon as my mom gets here they are going to Paraguay. She can't understand that my mom will stay here for 4 weeks and then they will leave.

I was right there next to him but I didn't notice what he did. Minutes later Tim saw the cell phones in the glass and it was too late. His works fine with some minor defects but mine won't work at all. In other words I lost all the phone numbers that I have been saving for the last 3 years!!! I am pretty sad about that but what do you do?? Tim asked Lucas what he was thinking to do that and I responded. Nothing, he is a 17 month old!!!<br /><br />Now that the Christmas tree is up he won't stop taking the ornaments down!!! If I don't catch him on time I find all the bottom ornaments on the floor among other decorations that we have in our tree. He thinks that the ornaments are "balls" and wants to play with them. It doesn't seem that bad except when you put them up 3 to 4 times a day!!! I know I could just move them up so He can't reach them but I won't like my Christmas tree that way so I just better learn to deal with it for a few more weeks.<br /><br />This morning as we were getting ready to go to pick up Tim from school to go to lunch Lucas came to my closet where I was putting my shoes on and showed me his hands. Oh my goodness!! I screamed like I haven't in a long time. He got so scared that he cried but I also wanted to cry. His diaper was dirty and he decided to put his hands inside his pants and you can imagine what happened. I didn't know where to start. We were all ready to leave when this happened! I put him in my bath tub and bathed him there. It was a big mess! I just looked at him and I could see how innocent he is. He truly didn't know what happened and I am sure he didn't mean to do that. At least I am so glad that he didn't touch anything around the house so we were able to make it on time for our lunch with daddy.<br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjobXGNNMg26GFzCPvmyc-zUngOpuyGKWVeFFWi7BjPHy4a_e58l-ovIohLoHYEkRVLwzlouqMsBI2lOCalq-ViJ1NC9g06Wdqg2iELR9HpNucsO4mCDuymidZyzk0LJkEXujnqvuhf5Xeh/s1600-h/DSC02056.JPG"><img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 200px; height: 150px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjobXGNNMg26GFzCPvmyc-zUngOpuyGKWVeFFWi7BjPHy4a_e58l-ovIohLoHYEkRVLwzlouqMsBI2lOCalq-ViJ1NC9g06Wdqg2iELR9HpNucsO4mCDuymidZyzk0LJkEXujnqvuhf5Xeh/s200/DSC02056.JPG" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5276425195695173234" border="0" /></a>One of his favorite things to do.

Every morning she asks if we can open the presents so Monday night we gave her one of them because she was a good girl and she finished her dinner (which she is supposed to anyways, right??) She is so happy with her Strawberry shortcake doll. She can't stop fixing her hair. I am so glad she likes it.<br />Lucas is so ready to go to Paraguay. Here he is wearing his "purple" backpack which isn't really his.<br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi7_EuPTHTXJGamo7WhC4Qy3i-dieuIH8MZv_SPY_Cop0dYUT8VPLZr3AmjObiIx-6P1RDyMcVPZ8Hsdr9e2l4DivMwE4ehFccB-31vmzdKjnkXc1Cb_dSd50kwPX0F5jl5yQDc-iJCnQcX/s1600-h/DSC01609.JPG"><img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 200px; height: 150px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi7_EuPTHTXJGamo7WhC4Qy3i-dieuIH8MZv_SPY_Cop0dYUT8VPLZr3AmjObiIx-6P1RDyMcVPZ8Hsdr9e2l4DivMwE4ehFccB-31vmzdKjnkXc1Cb_dSd50kwPX0F5jl5yQDc-iJCnQcX/s200/DSC01609.JPG" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5276424179845943890" border="0" /></a>Cristinahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/09317951235431280063noreply@blogger.com2tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2316579768672564316.post-33600459966052771702008-12-04T15:53:00.001-08:002008-12-04T21:16:09.541-08:00Thanksgiving week<a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgTkRfnodeOrV1XGr8ugb2IXW8Sj8qajgjDVHyOKFIG5mBYO_G93wUNnGv2Q5VI-WNDWKmVqBdbMeJahHV5YSGcFMALXGP2YDNZHGJKjBDTr0-CARFfhu4kKcUdhO9YEkKFZw07O9ocW2tJ/s1600-h/DSC02388.JPG"><img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 200px; height: 150px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgTkRfnodeOrV1XGr8ugb2IXW8Sj8qajgjDVHyOKFIG5mBYO_G93wUNnGv2Q5VI-WNDWKmVqBdbMeJahHV5YSGcFMALXGP2YDNZHGJKjBDTr0-CARFfhu4kKcUdhO9YEkKFZw07O9ocW2tJ/s200/DSC02388.JPG" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5276088011350436578" border="0" /></a>Ashley and Lucas helping grandma make Cranberry bread( a tradition in the Dorius family)<br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEihUR1pctOsrjmJTVCHQhij4ST95ShSzt00iksN2w2sNTg_bsCwnbf7DEB_awBGRknithHnrWYgK5iKIv1SIbaCSh620HmTTX9zfNRGqejTO2Gn1XSypaY3ievnU3BZAO9a93cNWzE2GC4s/s1600-h/DSC02390.JPG"><img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 200px; height: 150px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEihUR1pctOsrjmJTVCHQhij4ST95ShSzt00iksN2w2sNTg_bsCwnbf7DEB_awBGRknithHnrWYgK5iKIv1SIbaCSh620HmTTX9zfNRGqejTO2Gn1XSypaY3ievnU3BZAO9a93cNWzE2GC4s/s200/DSC02390.JPG" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5276087743808021122" border="0" /></a>Tim and his grandpa. We took him out for lunch to his favorite place and got to listen to him tell us many great stories!<br /><br />This past week we were able to go and visit Tim's family in Memphis, TN. We left on Tuesday morning and came back Saturday night. It was a fun trip and as always the kids were happy to see grandma, grandpa, Bethany and Pepper (the dog). We did a lot of fun things including shopping, eating (way too much), visiting, watching movies, going to the park, and just relaxing. It was also nice to be able to go out without the kids and have some time just for us.<br />Ashley loves dogs so being in Memphis didn't help us much. She has been asking for a dog for a long time but there is no way we are going to get one now, maybe later in a few years. She also got to see Santa at the mall and she asked for a dog and a pony..WHAT??? Are you kidding me??? I went nuts wondering how in the world I was going to explain to her that Santa wasn't going to bring her a dog so I had to asked her if she meant the dogs that she has seeing at the stores (meaning stuffed animals) Ashley wasn't too sure about it but since I mentioned that she could get the dog that swims in the water she kind of got excited. She is not too happy about that idea, she truly wants a "real" puppy but I am hoping she will happy with what she is getting.<br />On the way back we had such a good time singing Christmas songs and just being silly since we had 7 hours to kill in the car. Ashley really got into singing Christmas songs and of course she had to hear "Jingle Bells" about 10 times; that is her favorite. Thanks grandma for the Christmas CD, it was great!<br />It was so nice to be back and see all the houses decorated with Christmas lights. I just love Christmas and I always get overwhelmed by the Spirit that I am able to feel at this time of the year and I am so glad that I was able to feel it again. I am looking forward to this Christmas season and I am so excited to have my mom here with us!<br />After unloading the car from the trip we went to watch the OU vs OSU football game at our friends the Lusk's. It was an awesome game and we are looking forward to more OU!!<br /><br />I hope you had a great week as we did.Cristinahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/09317951235431280063noreply@blogger.com0
