HAPPY HALLOWEEN / BIRTHDAY TO ME !!!

Well nasty weather or not we still ended up getting to TRICK OR TREAT!

Thank goodness! This Mama was NOT a happy camper

when I didn't think we'd get to go take our Elmo out

to show him off, lol. It was only his 2nd Halloween

I didn't wanna miss it!

Plus we didn't manage to get to a pumpkin patch to pick out

pumpkins and take pics or carve a pumpkin so this was our last Halloween hoorah!

And OF COURSE

I only got a few pics taken too busy watching little man have fun. :)

Didn't catch any pics of Aunt Riley she had Heelies on

&wastes no time getting that candy! XP

And too busy huffing and puffing this preggo belly up and down the street. -_-

Can't imagine if I had actually dressed up it may have been worse lol.

On the plus side the weather was cool FOR ONCE,

Bubba wasn't tooo scared to go get his candy

&he didn't freak out wanting his costume off!.:)

Overall night=SUCCESS

(Some pics came out better than others=my iphone vs my actual camera :P)

David all dressed up ready to rock &roll! Haha :D

My two best boys <3 <3

My handsome Elmo!

 David &&his Nonnie  :)

 Aubry Layne all dolled up! :)

Miss Kacie &Jancoth

&Kevin the Bumblebee!

Trick-or-treating with his Aunt Kacie :D

Chilling in his wagon Nonnie brought for this very reason! Haha :P

We also got to stop by Grandma &Grandpa's to see them,
Mimi &Aunt Marissa after trick-or-treating!
We didn't get to stay long cause it was already getting to be bedtime
&we were all exhausted from all that walking.. :(
But here's Bubba and his Aunt Marissa
Mimi caught a pic of them!

Then got to stop by Popo &Grandma's house
so they could see his little costume before heading home,
course by then David was ready to be out of it
and relaxing! Lol :P

Hehem, on a side note it was also MY BIRTHDAY!

Not that I was too worried about that part. :P

Was just glad we got to see family and

little man got to have his fun dressing up and trick-or-treating! :)

Hubby didn't skip it though

got me some Wingstop and this freaking delicious

fudge brownie cheesecake beforehand..

 and took me to Barnes &Noble the next day after our date night at Olive Garden!

to get some yummy hot chocolate &books <3

Love that man <3

These 3 were the day AFTER Halloween

David decided he wanted to keep wearing his costume

around the house..

My cutiepie :))

This one he told Elmo ni-night, kissed his hand

and put it on Elmo's head.. XD

This little boy cracks me up.. :)

Well that's all I've got this year but I'm sure next year will be a WHOLE

different story with twoo boys and a not-so-preggo

Mama that can actually keep up and dress up!

HAPPY HALLOWEEN EVERYBODY! :)

Presents All Around! (Kacie's Party)

As well as Logan's 2nd birthday party day,

it was also one of my baby sister's SWEET 16 party day!!!

It still blows my mind how fast these kiddos are growing up

and that means I'm finally starting to get older.. -_-

(Although I'll still deny it!)

Once again I didn't get as many pics as I wanted to
on account of partying so hard XP
But here's a few of the birthday girl!

Happy happy happy Birthday to my beautiful sister

KACIE DANIELLE :D

 Mom set up a THE BOMB party with
PINK
literally everywhere!
Perfect for a young lady turning her sweet 16! :)
Lucky us got hotdogs and snacks twice in one day <3
David was so digging the pink balloons everywhere &the hawaiian punch!

Her cake came out awesome looking &I think
my baby sis def got the party she deserved. :)

(Thanks to our awesome event planning Momma!
Don't think there's a party that woman can't throw. XD)

Happy Birthday Kacie!!! <3
We love you!

Presents All Around! (Logan's Party)

HAPPY BIRTHDAY LOGAN JAMES !!!

Today was Mr. Logan's 2nd birthday party!

It was the cutest "How To Train Your Dragon" themed

&&he seemed to definitely enjoy his day :)

I didn't get too many pics since we were busy having fun

&I put my camera down at one point &completely

forgot about the pics I had planned to take.. -_-

He had little cupcakes, a dragon pinata, little dragon figures everywhere,

foam shields &swords(the boys favorite part!

They had quite a battle with Logan's Gigi XD),

viking helmets(which they had a love-hate relationship with haha),

plenty of delicious kool-aid squeezes(most of us adults favorite part XP),

dogs &burgers &a great big moon bounce for the kiddos &Daddy's

to run all their energy out on sliding down. :)

LJ sure knows how to throw a party!

 Big boy making his wish!
He actually had Mommy relight his candles a couple times,
getting as many wishes as he could! ;)

 Tearing presents up=always the best part :P

LJ &Daddy checking out his hugging Elmo :D

What better gift for a toddler than a giant Elmo?!

David was definitely jealous :P lol

Happy 2nd birthday sweet boy, hope you had as much fun as we did. :)

HAPPY BIRTHDAY DAVID CONRAD <3

Hope you had a great 1st birthday! :)

Happy 1st Birthday little one <3

Dear David Conrad,

     A year ago today @9:30 PM, I gave birth to a beautiful 7 lb 1.2 oz 19 in baby boy..

We'd been waiting months for him to get here,

&when he did we couldn't have been happier and more blessed than in that moment.

We changed in a split second from a regular couple,

to a Mommy &Daddy that would move the Earth to make sure

he was safe and loved and got everything he needed in this world.

     That baby boy was you. :)

You came into our lives just when we needed you the most

and have completed this little family we started.

It's been only a year but I don't know where we'd be without you sweet baby.

We thank God everyday that he made you just for us.

 Even at one year's old you are already so smart, funny, sweet, and loving

and we can't wait to see what good you bring to this world.

You will do great things and I promise we'll be there every step of the way.

We are already so proud of you. <3

So today's your day big boy!

We love you so much David. :)

Love,

Mommy &Daddy

No time to say hello, goodbye I'm late I'm late I'm late!

My goodness friends I am so sorry I've been MIA for a long while now! :P Not only did MY laptop finally give out(the screen could never stay up on its own, then the screen went &stayed black); but Hubby's Mac's battery decided to up &die one day &also never turn back on. >:( So for now my nice father-in-law lent me his laptop!

Terrible considering ALLL of my pics are on both of them. So yes my posts from Halloween, Thanksgiving, Christmas, &everything else in between are also MIA, just for now I hope.

But just a quick update minus pics:

All the holidays with Jon, David, &myself being our firsts w/baby boy were amazing naturally. (:

~Halloween was my 22nd birthday! I celebrated by trick-or-treating for David's 1st Halloween, he was Winnie The Pooh! Cutest little Pooh we'd ever seen! He seemed to like visiting everyone's doors to say hello :P He didn't really get tired till there at the end of course by then it was time to head home anyway.

~Thanksgiving had wrenches thrown into it as David had a high fever we couldn't get down and was crying inconsolably so we only got to visit w/one house of relatives! Had to take the poor baby to the hospital &spend the rest of our Thanksgiving day there just hoping he'd feel better. :( Turned out to be another annoying ear infection. >:( Darn those things!

~Christmas was good also: went to see the Festival of Lights, picked out a live tree, bought our own decorations for it &a pretty tree skirt.

We didn't get to take a picture with Santa as we were super late in December for it &just broke my heart since we won't have that picture for later years to look back on.. :( But on the plus side we had a nice Christmas as a family &did get sweet pictures for the rest of the time. :)

~New Years we spent at home counting down as the ball dropped in Times Square on TV w/ordered-in pizza &the munchkin getting to stay up and play late for a change!

I'd like to point out that only in Texas is it hot during basically all these Holidays!

Even a couple days in January so far have been shorts kinda days.

Business has yet to be started as I'm back on my own, granted I like it better that way. (: Less drama when I don't have to share my business decisions with anyone but ME. So still working out the kinks, but since it's a new year with a fresh start I figure it's now or never to get started!

On a side note keeping myself busy planning David's 1st birthday coming here in February! Considering how big even just my immediate family is, I'm having trouble finding a place to have it.. >:( Our place just isn't big enough! So much for keeping his 1st bday small.. :/ I'm also considering making homemade pizza like I have before! But I'll probably make a whole different post for David's bday planning just to keep track of it all as I go along. (:

Anywhooo that's it for now, hopefully soon we can get our computers back up and running &I can share our holiday pictures with you! Till then (:

Logan's big 1st Birthday !!!

Todayyyy was David's buddy, Mr Logan's 1st birthday!!!

It was lots of fun &I know David had a ball, mostly playing with all Logan's new toys!

We got to celebrate LJ's Big 1 &visit with some old friends too :] Overall good time!

LJ wasn't tooo sure about his little cake, lol

But that didn't last long :P

It was monster themed, so cute! David was kinda scared of his

little monster party favor for a few day before he'd play with it lol..

Awesome little family &&some good friends. :]
