Them Wild One's.....

A WILD Saturday!!!

Well seeing as Jeff is about to start busy season we thought it would be fun to take the boys down to the Wild Animal Park. We have not been there since Noah was Sawyer's age. They have made so many changes since we were last there. Noah was very excited to see all the animals. The new way they do the tram is really a lot better, you get to see a lot of animals and much closer than you did before. We also got to see Elephants...we tried to sit through the show but lets face an almost 3 year old really could care less about an elephant picking up a log. So we left about half way through. The major highlight of the trip had to be the soft serve ice cream....it was seriously so tasty and I could really go for another!! We finished off the day with going to the Carlsbad Outlets....I love shopping and even more I love shopping at the outlets. Too bad the boys and Jeff were there they totally hold me back from my bargain skills. Maybe that is a good thing!! All in all it was a great day, the weather was gorgeous and we are so glad to spend the day outside!!

Kids love.....

Happy Valentines Day!! As I have already mentioned I love love this holiday. I love the color red and I love a holiday to celebrate and go crazy. So yesterday I did just that. I decided it would be fun to have Noah and has friends have a little party and pass out valentines. It was really fun...or atleast I thought it was. I think the party was more fun for me than anyone else. The kids (almost all boys) only wanted to play outside and eat cupcakes. It was a great party...I love having an excuse to party and theme out an event!! I can't wait for St. Patricks day or Easter.

This is the best we could get from a bunch of 2 and 3 year olds!



All of the food, I went a little heart crazy. There was heart shaped cheese too.



All of the loot the kids got!!!



Sawyer and the perfect party: Gwen and a bottle!

Thanks, Cupid.

Jeff and I went on a fabulous date on Saturday night. It was so nice especially since I think the last time we went out was before Christmas. Jeff has been really spoiling me this last week and a half. Everyday since February first he or "cupid" has been leaving me a present a day with a cute poem and valentine. I have gotten lots of cute things to decorate with and candy it has been GREAT. I even asked him this morning if I could have this everyday...since I get to be the princess again for awhile. Sadly he told me no...but I understand.


He planned a great evening for us. We always go out for Valentines the weekend before or after to try and beat the crowds. Jeff made reservations for us at the Melting Pot. I have been telling him for awhile that I really wanted to try it. It was so much fun and really yummy. I never knew I would like fondue so much! We got this spinach artichoke cheese fondue, it was seriously fabulous. I have been dreaming about it ever since.


After dinner we went to see the movie 27 Dresses. It was so cute...I am one lucky girl, I told him we could see whatever he wanted but he said it was LOVE DAY so we had to go to a romantic movie.

We had a great time. We decided that we are sending our boys to the Melting Pot when they get engaged, it is a two to three hour meal...very romantic but great for a couple they would have to do a lot of talking. It was the perfect night!! Thanks Jeff for all your planning and hard work I feel very lucky!!!

The Results Are In....

Well I guess my gut was right and we are having another BOY!!! I figured that is what it was.....I think I am a little in shock because as we were finding out both of my boys were terrozing the room unplugging lamps and acting like little boys. But we are excited to be welcoming a happy healthy baby in August!!!! Thanks to all who wore pink today wishful thinking!!! I guess I will be out numbered four to one!!!

Nothing really new.....

So it has been a boring week at our house...when I mean boring I mean I spent more days at home than I did out and about and I hate weeks like that. But we all have colds and horrible coughs. Luckily we did get out to Target this week and thought I should share these two stories. On Monday we went to Target with friends and I had to laugh because my kids are too funny. Sawyer was sitting in the basket first and totally fell asleep sitting up. I wish I knew how to get the photo off my phone it is funny. I moved Sawyer to the back and put Noah in the top not even kidding less then five minutes later Noah was asleep sitting up too. I think the cart must have been laced with benedryl. Noah has this new thing that he does when he is trying to get my attention, he calls me Abby. It drives me CRAZY he actually knows that it does and now just mostly calls me Abby. So a few days ago while we were at Target he kept saying Abby..and I kept saying no I am mommy and I won't answer you until you call me Mommy....I think like 5 people stopped me laughing at our absurd conversation. Like I actually thought I could reason with him.

I have been busy this weekend, I finally put up my curtains!!!! I can't even believe how different it made the room look. So things are finally coming together I am still searching for the perfect clock and picture frame for two of my walls.Here is the picture frame that I really want....

Both of the things I really want are from Pottery Barn....but that is never going to happen so I am trying to find cute alternatives. I order my bench and coat rack and I am dying for them to get here!!! Well that is all for now...sorry no picutres I really hate when I have no pictures but then again I am too drugged right now to care. When I say drugged I mean Tylenol cold and chloreseptic...my throat is so numb that stuff is AMAZING!!!! Oh stay tuned we find out tomorrow night whether we only produce boys!!!
