Mark has been obsessing over beating Mario 3 on his Wii. This is what I saw for the majority of the evening.

Sasha is still trying to get over her cold, and tonight, as soon as Mark picked her up she laid her head on his chest and fell asleep! She is so adorable!

Tonight Sasha was making us laugh! She was trying to drink her bottle by bending over it and sucking - it took her several tries before figuring out that it wasn't working!

Tonight Mark was flipping through the channels and found a documentary about butterflies. As sad as it is, it was the highlight of the day.

Tonight Mark and I went to a class in Mesa, as we were driving home I had to take a picture of our exit. This is off of the US 60.

It has only taken me about 10 months to finally hang the chair rail in my bathroom - but it is done and it is such a great finish! I think it turned out really nicely!!

Today was Sasha's 6 month appointment. The poor thing had her shots, but she was such a great sport and was happy the whole time!

Today was an important day in history for many Americans. Many gathered to celebrate the inauguration of the first African American President, Barack Obama.

Today I had the day off and was able to spend extra time with Sasha. We had a great time playing and discovering her fingers!

Mark SURPRISED me by taking me on a hot air balloon ride. All I knew was that he had picked out my outfit and told me we had to leave the house by 6:00 AM. It was AMAZING. Mark, thank you so much for the best birthday!

I can't believe she is getting so big! I love spending time with her in the morning - getting out cute outfits, laughing with her, and getting her ready for her day. We love her so much!

It is sad, but Mark and I have always really enjoyed American Idol. Maybe because we like to sing, or maybe because we have nothing better to do - but we did watch the premier tonight! It was the Phoenix tryouts...we had to!

This is something that we see often in our home! I am a stickler that if you use the last of the toilet paper you replace it....but I happen to live with someone who doesn't quite remember. But that's okay!

Every Thursday I look forward to watching Grey's Anatomy. It is one of my favorite TV shows. Mark really likes it too, although I am not sure if he would admit that to people!

Keeping it real - this is what my living room looked like Tuesday morning when I was getting ready for work. Laundry everywhere - Sasha's toys taking up half of the living room, and yes...our tree is still up!
