Jeter Family BlogAaron, Cassie, and Sophie Jeter

Well I know about this time, some of us pen down a few New Year’s Resolution’s for the upcoming year!! Now not to bore any of you, but I am going to mention a few of my goals that are very important to me:-) Stop reading if you have no interest what so ever in Cassie Ann Olpin Jeter’s goals! There, I gave you all a fair WARNING!! Now you can’t say I didn’t warn you!!!

First and foremost..I want to take “better” care of Cassie:-0! This means a little more excercise, taking time to eat breakfast in the morning, eating more fruits, veggies and whole grains, and laying off the diet drinks while increasing the water flow. Just to name a few!! Well, I have already started implementing some of these things and it is going Oh so WELL!!! The greatest thing is I think I am gaining more energy and feelling better then I did before. Oh so COOL!!!

Another goal I have is to take a few classes in school. I am very excited about this because I never finished my degree and I have always wanted too! Being a Mom is my first priority and always will, however, I think gaining more education will only benefit me, along with my family. I am checking out classes right now and the most I would take would only be 1 or 2 a semester!!

These are a few of my main goals that I’m SO EXCITED about!!! Ask me how I am doing on both of them later!!!

All my LOVE and may the BEST come to you, yours and your family in this new year 2010!!!!!!!!!! I’ve also posted a picture of Sophie bringin in New Year!!!:-)

Today I have to tell you something that I realized. I am completely HAPPY and CONTENT with my LIFE!!! And quite frankly I wouldn’t want any other:-) I was sitting here reading friends blog’s, when this realization hit me!!! No offense to you blogger’s/friends out there, but I am completely HAPPY and SATISFIED with all the DYNAMICS and WONDERS of my LIFE. I wouldn’t change anything and realizing this was quite SPECTACULAR.

As I got thinking, I realized a big part of my contentedness is due in large part to my HUSBAND!!! Have you ever met him? If not you must do so. He is one of the most gentle, wonderful creatures I know and tomorrow is his BIG DAY!!! He will be turning 32. He is the BEST HUSBAND AND DAD in the world! I couldn’t ask for any better.

Among the many things he does for me, I will say the biggest thing that he does for me is help me with Sophie. He is so great to change diapers, feed her, play with her, etc etc…
Another big one is he helps me with the housework. Washing clothes is his fortee’!!!
And last but not least, he texts me a love note every day.

These are just a few of the things he does for Sophie and I on a daily basis. I could go on and on for sometime but I would bore you all!!!!! HAPPY BIRTHDAY HON!!!!! WISHING YOU ALL THE BEST IN THE YEAR TO COME:-0!

Here are a few of the milestones Sophie has reached in the last couple of months, along with some cute things she does that might be unique to “Sophie”!!
**Yay, she can crawl now folks (now maybe I’ll shed a few pounds)and can she ever crawl fast!! I’m on the move alot these days because the confined areas are usually not enough to meet her satisfaction!!
**She can sit-up on her own!! So cute!
**I may be biased, but I definately think she is going to be a dancer!! She does two things, well actually four, that make me think so…1st-she rotates her ankles. 2nd- she does leg stretches in her car seat in the back of our car( Aaron has caught her doing this also!). 3rd-she hits these cute poses while crawling!! One of the poses she has one leg bent underneath her with the other one extended. She also does the push up position a lot. 4th-she is majorly flexible. Along with putting her foot in her mouth, she’ll also bend her body in other flexible ways. I’m so glad God sent me a dancer:) J/K As long as she does something productful, I’ll be a Happy Mom!
**She has discovered that if she covers and then uncovers her mouth with her hand, she can make a cool noise!
**She’s a hoot! We already laugh at her quite regularly. She is a lot of fun. One thing that she does that makes us laugh is she will grunt when she wants a change. If she is tired of her swing or saucer, she will do a low pitched grunt until we take her out! I’ll admit, this trait doen’t make me laugh “all” of the time. Sometimes it’s a little frustrating when she sounds like a “little monster”(maybe that’s what I should have made her for Halloween!!! J/K).
Anyhow, I’m sure I could think of some more things to brag about but I’m sure I’ve bored you all by now anyways.

OK, so I usually like dogs, but when my baby is sleeping, and the next door neighbors dog starts yapping, I’m usually not thinking pleasant things. So should we consider getting Sophie a dog when she is a little bit older or not?!! HMMMMMM, something to think about!
