I've been inspired by a wonderful lady whom I've only had the pleasure of meeting one brief time to start a blog. In fact, she doesn't even know that she inspired me (except that I just told her). Jenn married Aaron, one of my best friends from high school, and they have three beautiful children and live in Texas. I spent a little time today reading some of her blogs (back to 2005!) and decided it was something I'd like to try. I'm not a fabulously entertaining writer, but I figure - at the minimum - this will give our out-of-town friends and family a glimpse into life in the Oury household. So, thanks Jenn for the inspiration!! :)
Today Nicholas is 9 months old. It's hard to believe. I left work a little early to take him to his well-baby check-up. Of course, he's perfect. A tad over 20 lbs., 28 inches long and in the 50th percentile in comparison to other 9 month olds - they obviously don't compare cuteness or he'd be off the chart! He was a little angel for Dr. Peter and didn't even cry when that mean old nurse came at him with the needle. Taylor was with us (he'll be 8 on 7/29) and he talked non-stop at the appointment...as is par for the course nowadays. Dr. Peter gave him a little gumball machine toy after he promised to keep it away from his baby brother.
Jason's working tonight so, after having dinner, the boys and I loaded up in my new HUMMER H3 (that Jason bought me last weekend - thanks again baby!) and went to the CHS track to walk our laps. We've been walking nightly for about a week now and are up to 6 laps, or a mile and a half. It's not much, but it's a start.
Two more days until a three day weekend!! Tomorrow is my sister's birthday - she'll be 29 for the first time! :)

Yay for walking laps! What a great family event.
My exercise here consists of walking to the market for veggies---or bread--or to the seamstress to pick up outfits she's working on for me. Nobody runs here! Grant and I do try to hike about once a week, though.--plenty of places for that.
It's wonderful to see your family. Your boys truly are beautiful, and the top ten thankful list is inspiring to me.
Love and miss you!

Yeah!! We are so glad that you decided to blog! Hope that you enjoy it as much as we do....even Aaron reads my blog every once in a while. He says that he doesn't need to read it all the time because he "lives the blog.."
