Happy Birthday to ME :)

That is right, today is my silver birthday. I am offically part of the 1/4 century club (good god that sounds depressing). Well...not technically yet, not until 10pm tonight :D

Today was a wonderful day. We woke up after a hillarious and out right fun night of drinking (which I really needed!!) and I got breakfast served to me. Timmys in bed, nothing better, Brian knows me too well. I knew from yesterday that I had 2 "appts" for this morning, but had NO idea what/where. So I get ready and head out in the car. Brian drops me off for a nice relaxing massage!!!!!! It was amazing. He booked the appointment with a massage therapist/physio therapist and they were jsut amazing. I really was in need of a great de-stressing massage and that is exactly what I got. When it was time to leave Brian and the girls were there ready for the day and they brought me to the next place. Brian then set up an appointment at a spa for a mani/pedi. Ohhh it was nice. I was very pleased with the place.

Time for lunch. Brian (daring I may add because of the plans he had) asked me where I wanted to go for lunch. Of course, I said Jacks. Boy he is lucky he knows me 100%! We headed to Jacks for lunch and I was suprised by family and friends with a birthday lunch. It was nice to have people there to celebrate with us and we had alot of fun. Great food and great company. It was very sweet.

All in all it has been a marvelous day. We were planning on going to the drive thru tonight but Im not too sure at this moment. We are both SO tired from the day, so we may wait and go for the super feature night tomorrow. Im kind of excited at the thought of a quiet movie night at home with some gelato! YUM :)

SO that was my day. It was great and Im so very lucky to have such an amazing man in my life.

Maybe I am a bit mistaken

Could someone fill me in on where I went wrong. I was very unaware that caring about an innocent child, being respectful and being the bigger person meant that I was kissing people's asses. Everyday of my life does not need to be about drama. I dont feel the need to be over dramatic about every little god damn situation. A child is sick (Yes...child...INNOCENT CHILD) and I want them to get better and offer suggestions....and im kissing ass? I comment on a child's pictures and Im kissing ass? Now I could see if I was constantly complementing those who have hurt me in the past. I could see if I was mailing out mother of the year awards, hell I could even see if I was playing best friend but matters of a child? Common! I am 25 years old, I don't need to stoop to the past levels of others to make myself feel ok. Save the drama for someone else, I dont need it!

oh wait...I thought that everyone deserved second chances. Right, only when it wasnt me in the good books. Gottcha. Ill make a mental note of that for nex time.

GRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRr

ok, vent over.

Baths are for babies

And Miss Brooklyn no longer things she fits in that category!! If I try to put her in the bath, she freaks. She points up to the shower head and says tub tub. All she wants is a shower, no baths for this big girl. She will though, let me eventually put the plug down and allow the bath to fill up. Once shes had enough shower she will play in the bath. Damn stubborn kid. Wonder where she gets that from...................................

Getting ready and all excited



In and getting adjusted



PLAY TIME!!!




An extra one for fun!!

Yes....I did it

I gave my baby her first set of piggy tails. Go ahead and laugh at me, I think it looks adorable. She is just too damn cute NOT to do this too. Geesh, how did I ever get so lucky? She is just like her sissy was from the beginning. She sat in my lap, played with her toothbrush and let mommy do her magic. Such a little angel she is!! Here are the pics, aint she darlin'??

Do you notice her hair getting even lighter? It's unreal!! You should see it in the natural light!




Mommys little ham, boy how I love this little lady.

Hair style mama

Brooklyn is a girlie girl through and through. She is obsessed with shoes, jewlery, and putting stuff in her hair. I guess this day she thought mamas hair brushing wasnt enough to tame her wild ways.





You cant really see it in that last one, but its there. Yesterday it was barretts. Why is it the child with NO hair actually likes stuff put in it??

Mommys little helper

Now...onto the more important stuff....my kids!

This pic is from last week but I wanted to show it off. Alexis is such a great helper, without even asking. I have vaccumed the floors downstairs and then went to put clothes away. After a few minutes I heard the vaccum go on again and thought maybe it was possessed. Well...it was! By Alexis! She insists on re-vaccuming the floors each and everytime I do it. Ahh...shes so amazing!! Here she is in action.



Look at that smile, its to die for!



ENJOY :)
