mama night and baby day

last night i went out for dinner and drinks with one of my favorite
fellow mamas megs. we had such a good time and only spent about half
the time talking about babies and they other half having some really
fantastic deep conversations that we had never had before . i just love
that girl! i really needed a night out and last night was just perfect.
hopefully soon we can hang out with babies.

today we ran around just about everywhere on the west side with fritz and then brittany. we discovered the best book store (twice) and i am happy to that i have found my new favorite. its called liberty books & news and it is just the best store.

happy birthday holly

today i just wanted to do a special blog for my very first niece on her 5th birthday! happy birthday holly!! i cant even believe what a big girl you are now, you grew up way too fast! but you make me proud every day to be your aunt and to have the same name. i love you dolly!

cousins at easter

doing what she does best

please take note of belas cheeks in the middle picture... could she cram anything else in there? maybe some veggies?

picky

so my little "eats anything" bela girl has suddenly turned picky. well picky about certain foods. she still loves most meat and of course cheese, but lately she doesnt want anything to do with veggies. i even tried cutting them up in minuscule pieces and mixing in to mac n cheese which only caused her to not eat any of it. so last night for dinner she ate chicken and cheese and she was perfectly happy. now i just need to discover new tactics for hiding veggies. on the upside she will eat baby food veggies... is that weird? i guess i cant complain really.

on a sidenote, this morning i turned on the tv to belas channel and the wiggles were on. gag. it was the "little wiggles" segment where all of the men are replaced for like 8 year old boys. gag. their tv was malfunctioning and one of them made a comment about missing oreilly. as if the show isnt horrendous enough, but now they gotta be young republicans too? gag.

too much

somehow did i not only make it almost three weeks without posting, but
i made it without a single person reminding me of it. so know it has
been way too long and way too much has happened in that time. we have
been really busy and idont think my brain can take recapping it all right now.
we have family in town for easter which was wonderful. my sister, her husband and the their girls and also my aunt and uncle from colorado. we all crashed my folks house and it was such a full house, but no one complained. i think we all loved every minute of it, i know i did!
in current news, bela was sick again last night, i hoping today will look up.
okay so i know this was a crappy catch up post, but thats
it man. i will post more if i think of something worth while. and in typical style, i will supplement with pictures! lets
all just forget about the lapse and i will try to be a better blogger.
deal? deal.
