A toast!

Ahhh....those were the days! I stumbled upon this picture yesterday while looking through an old Nursing book for a friend and man did this bring back some memories! Before Husbands and children :) I think this was Tiffany's Beach wedding.

Bert we were HOT back then!

I wouldn't change anything for what I have now, but I have come to realize I will never look like this again :) Here's to all those crazy nights out on the town!

Poppy Festival

Here are a few pics from the Festival. this was the first year we've gone and we had such a nice time with friends! We had to leave a little early because Benjamin was completely worn out :) and passed out in the stroller. Sorry you missed all the animals in the petting zoo!

Future Astronaut

We ventured out to the Poppy Festival In Lancaster over the weekend with some good friends and stumbled upon the NASA tent. We couldn't pass up this photo opportunity!

Look Out NASA! Here comes trouble.

Yummo?

Why does my 17 month old still like to chew his feet/ shoes? It was fine when the kid wasn't walking but now it's just gross. Maybe it will end when he gets all his teeth? Who knows maybe he'll always be known as the kid who eats shoes! UGH!!!!!!!!!!

Busted Lip

So I knew it would eventually happen and Sunday morning it did. Benjamin fell in the kitchen while running and trying to take his jacket off at the same time and landed on his face. I knew by the sound that it was going to be bad and man o man was it! The blood was gushing everywhere and he was screaming his head off for what seemed like an eternity. We finally got him calmed down 45min later and things were a little better with 3 blankies, a boo boo buddy, and a grape popsicle that was followed by his Paci. We felt so bad for the guy and knew he was in a lot of pain. The whole situation made him absolutely exhausted and he wound up taking a 4 1/2 hr nap to recover from the incident.

Don't tell anyone that mommy took a little snooze also! :)

Toddler Tantrums

These seem to happen frequently these days and so I grabbed the camera and started snapping away only to find out it just made the situation worse. Oh it's so tough to be a toddler!

Isn't he cute!!

I think the title says it all!

As you can tell my new camera came this week and I've been having a blast with it! Enjoy all the cute picts to come.

New Toy

I have been sucked into the SLR Camera family. I would not have been able to buy one of these awesome cameras if I had not known about a cool site called http://www.slickdeals.net/. They run daily deals on just about everything and we have gotten som great deals from the site. I can't wait for thee camera to get here, and hopefully by easter so I can take some pics of Ben :)

Been a while!

Sorry it's been a while since I last posted. things have been super crazy around here with memorial services for Dave Cooley, the F-22 pilot we lost on March 25th. We also had a friend of ours from TPS come back from his 7 month deployment today so we got a limo and loaded up 15 of us and headed down to LAX this morning to welcome him home. It was so great to see Doug back here safe and sound, and I know his wife is so excited to have her Man back :). We have a few busy weeks ahead of us with appointments and Easter parties, trips to the zoo and Transportation Town. I will get new pictures of Ben up here soon I promise!!!
