Laperoscopy (it that spelled right?!)

I have been having major, serious, annoying problems with my body lately. I will use this as an excuse of why I haven't blogged lately. I'm going in for a Laperoscopy tomorrow, and am hoping that my OB will figure out what is wrong with me. My recooperation time is supposedly a week, but hopefully I will be feeling better after sleeping off the anesthia.
I am so excited about my life right now!!! After Bobby and I joined the church, we had a really hard time finding our identity and who and where we fit in with the church. I have tried to read the Book of Mormon, like, 50 times. I don't think I've actually even gotten through half of the Book of Mormon. One of the biggest problems I have is understanding what I'm reading. I explained this to one of my friends, and she gave me the Book of Mormon for latter-day saint families. It's filled with information on the bottom of the page that includes definitions of words, explanations of symbolism, and other great stuff (it also has pictures!). I started reading about three weeks ago, and am now starting the book of Mormon. And the great thing is, I totally understand what I'm reading. It is so wonderful, and I actually enjoy opening up my scriptures and reading. One of the biggest things I have noticed since I have started reading my scriptures is that there has been tons of opportunities to share the gospel ALL THE TIME. I probably talk to somebody about the gospel two or three times a week! I think that is so amazing! The other great thing is that I feel it's easier to make good decisions. My T.V. time has come down, I'm not yelling as much, and I feel more calm. It is a great feeling. If anybody is reading this, and doesn't understand why reading scriptures is so important: Just start reading! You will start to see blessings almost instantly!

My dad and Giada

We just went to Infineon Raceway last weekend to see my dad race. I am so proud of him!!! He is fulfilling a dream of his since he was young, and I totally look up to him! He has taught me that some dreams take time to really come true.
My posts will probably always be in the middle of night, because I have had insomnia for the past week or so. The only way that I can get to sleep is by taking a sleeping pill. I can't get my brain to shut off. When I lived by myself, I would actually stay up all night cleaning, doing laundry, and whatever else needed to be done until I would finally fall asleep cleaning the freezer out or something. Then I would sleep well into the day, and be ready for another night of sleeplessness. The problem I have now is that I have wonderful children that I get to have a fun-filled day with! I've got to figure out how to rid this insomnia!
Bobby and I finally went out on a date for the first time in like two months. It made me realize how much in love with him I really am. It's so easy to let little things get in the way of your relationship, but I remembered today why I fell in love with him. It's nice to know that you will always have a best friend that you can talk to about anything!

I can't believe I'm doing this!

I can't believe that I'm blogging. For anybody who knows me, they know that I'm extremely too old fashioned to do something as extreme as this :) But I've realized with kids graduating from the high school, that I love to hear and see new things going on in their lives. So I thought...maybe, just maybe...somebody out there is wondering about our lives.
It's interesting to be reading some of these blogs that my friends have been posting. They are so witty and clever...they are so good at making their lives sound interesting. So I must put a disclaimer before you read on: I AM NOT A WITTY AND CLEVER WRITER. My favorite subject is math, and that is because there is always a right answer and a wrong answer. And I can already tell by the way I am babbling on about nothing, I am getting the wrong answer!
For those of you who don't know, my husband, Bobby and I have stayed in old Brentwood. Every day we talk about how much we hate it, and how much we want to move, but Bobby has such a good job that we really can't pass it up. Bobby works for ACCO Engineering, finishing up his last year of his apprenticeship. I am working at Liberty part time playing for Sue Stuart in the choral department, and helping her whenever needed. I'm also teaching piano lessons, and am loving teaching again! Giada Rose Andrego will be 3 years old this month, and Clinton Robert Andrego will be almost four months old. Being a mom is hard work, but I love getting up every morning and am grateful to my Heavenly Father and my husband for making a way for me to stay home most days with my kids. I've decided to take a break from school for a while. I am a senior in my credits, and when I have some extra time, I am going to finish up my schooling...so that I can look at my diploma and say, "I'm so glad I paid all that money to an institution, and only got this piece of paper that I will probably never use." One thing that most people don't know about Bobby and I, is that we joined the LDS church about 3 years ago. We were sealed in the temple on February 2nd, 2007, and our children are now sealed to us for all time and eternity. We are so excited about our lives! We also just bought a house, and we have a 34 foot toy hauler to go camping with. We LOVE LOVE LOVE camping, and we try to go as often as possible! I think that's it for now!
