Birthday Trip To Disney in Pictures






The Boy Turns 4





wake up Sister I'm 4!!! Sister thought it was her Birthday too. 








To My Son, 

Last Thursday  you turned four, and just like every birthday before, I couldn't believe you were another year older. I think I will feel this way every birthday for the rest of your life. I remember when I had my first thought of you. The thought that filled my body with calm and purpose. I have never wanted anything so bad in my life. I remember where I was, what I was wearing, where we were on our way to when I took the pregnancy test. I remember sitting on the floor holding your Daddy's hand, reminding myself to breath because three minutes is a long time to hold your breath. I remember being afraid to look at the result because I couldn't bare it if it was negative. 
Two perfectly pink lines stared me in the face, and our lives were changed forever. I remember sitting on your Daddy's lap on the bathroom floor crying. We both were. That is when we knew how much we were going to love you. 
I remember the first time I felt you flip in my belly. I was alone laying in bed, and it was as if you were just saying hello. I remember the first Dr appointment and all the ones to follow. I had your nursery done by the time I was 6 months pregnant, and I would sit in it and rock in the rocking chair and I would rub my enormous belly and we would have deep conversations about nothing. 
I remember the day you were born. My water broke at Fashion Island in the parking lot and I thought I'd peed  my pants. Your Daddy was so excited he was jumping out of his skin. I remember just feeling ready, 
I was ready to see you, smell you, love you, just be your mama. 
Twenty four hard hours later, there you were. This perfect little being. I will always remember the first time we met. I couldn't take my eyes off of you. It was the sweetest moment of my life. I had never loved anything so deeply in my ever. 

I remember every cry, every laugh, every bump and bruise. I remember every talk we've had, every song we've ever sung. I remember the night you went to bed a baby and woke up a boy. That was a hard night for me:) 

We have a million memories of the past four years and I remember every one of them. They are etched in my brain and when you and I are having a particularly difficult day, I search for the memory of the first time you said you loved me. That was a sweet day. 

You are the best boy anyone could have, You are wild and crazy, and smart and thoughtful. You teach me something new everyday. I can get lost looking thru your long lashes and into your deep brown eyes. When you belly laugh, I get the chills because it is the most pure sound I have ever heard. You love your Sister and say you'll always protect her from monsters. That one makes my heart full . 

You are my first babe. You made me a mama. You and I have been thru it all little man. I love you so deep down to your bones it blows my mind. 

Happy Birthday Son. 

Love, 
Mama

I have so much blogging to catch up it's not even funny. My first born turned four, went wedding dress shopping with Chelsea, and went to Vegas for Whitneys amazing bachelorette party. I swear I'll get around to it. Right now I'm sitting in the backseat with my sleeping babes on our way to my parents for another Birthday dinner for the boy.
I'm totally getting car sick typing this is tootles from the 15 freeway

SOS

This is a stick of butter my Girl decided to make her mid morning snack. So sick




Someone has taken my daughter and replaced her with a naughty little back talking, I'm not gonna listen to anything anyone says, little girl. Her new hang out is the time out wall, and NO and WHY are her favorite words. I am loosing my mind and I said so long to my patience about a week ago. I'm pretty convinced that God made women to have babies
and he made wine so we don't go crazy trying to raise them. I am not a quitter, I don't give in easily, but so far this week the Girl wins. 
And I am just to dang exhausted to fight back.
