I'm lame.... I know....

My beautiful B's birthday came and went without me blogging about it: Bad Mommmy! Her birthday was awesome, quieter than usual, but still awesome in the same. My sis had one of our friends use this crafty scrapbooking tool thing to cut out Dr. Seuss-ish styled letters in the phrase, "Oh, the places we'll go!" which looked awesome as a backdrop to the food table... She received a ton of super cute clothes as well as a bunch of toys that have been keeping her quite busy for the past few weeks. We took a few photos but I haven't had a moment to download them to post. I promise to get them loaded soon and posted here so everyone can see...

I can't believe she's a year old.... Wow, that went by so very quickly. Now on too wild and crazy wedding prep for my sister's big day in May!!!

DeLurking Day!

Sometimes I forget that the regular old day-to-day of my life probably isn't that riveting of a read.... To me, the trials and tribulations of everyday mommy hood is both a blessing and a curse and it's fun for me to look back to the beginning of my blogging adventure and re-read the day-to-day. So, in honor of DeLurking Day, I'm going to attempt to "out" myself at least once on ALL of the blogs that I follow.... Bear with me that that is a pretty damn big list and it's gonna take a bit... Thanks Lora over at FEVER for hooking me up with the DeLurker Badge.... Luv ya Chic!

Countdown to B's B-Day

I can't believe she's going to be 1 on Saturday.... Where the heck did all 365 of those days go? In the mad rush of planning and executing her birthday after spacing on all of that throughout the holidays (NOTE TO SELF: Next year, don't wait until two weeks before the big day to plan and figure out a theme!!!), I've been a bad blogger and just noticed I haven't posted anything in almost two weeks. I'm going to try to post at least a few more times before the big day....

Birthday Plans:
(Theme)Dr. Seuss' "Oh, the places you'll go"
(Colors) hot pink, lime, teal and violet
(Invites) template designed/ordered, addressed and sent out
(Food) Still not 100% sure, but will probably do a make-your-own sandwich bar
(Decorations/Supplies) Bought and waiting for Friday night
(Cake) Gotta order today, thinkin' maybe cupcakes for party-goers and a mini cake
for Miss Brooklyn
(Prep) Still have to clean off the back porch, sweep, mop and clean the bathroom, but other than that we're good!
(Weather) Good thing we planned to throw the party inside because it's been raining all week and it doesn't look like it's going to let up until early next week




** Wish us luck for a beautiful, fun first birthday for our baby girl!! **

Happy NEw YEar!

Lukey Duke made it to the ball drop this year! Happy New Year all!!!


Hug your spouse, kiss your babies and live in the moment!
