So Grown Up

Today we took the family to 6 Flags. This was our first trip of the season and we invited the DeTars to show them where you can find us most days in the summer. The kids had a blast. It was hard to see how they have grown up in just a few short months. Today Caden and Emmeline went on rides all by themselves. Daddy even talked us into going on the raft ride where Caden and I got SOAKED! Yay for walking around the park in soaking wet clothes - can you sense my sarcasm?

Reason #999

Today I came home to discover yet another reason why I LOVE the Roomba. After searching the house for the Roomba I discovered it was vacuuming underneath my bed. When was the last time I was able to vacuum under the bed? I'll say it again - I'm in love.

Mama's Boy

It looks like I am going to have to learn the sign for salad. Jackson LOVED my salad and couldn't eat enough of it. Now if I could just get his brother and sister to love it as much as we do.
The second interesting food discovery we made was that Jackson loves frozen peas. It cracks me up because one of my favorite snacks growing up was frozen corn and grapes (No Judging Me).
Jackson is definitely his mama's boy.

Happy Birthday

Happy Birthday to one of my best friends! I don't know where I would be or what I would be wearing if it wasn't for her. (I know I wouldn't be blogging.)
I love how she keeps me accountable. I probably wouldn't have completed any of my Pinterest projects.
She is the most fashionable and crafty person I know. I love our craft days and when she cleans out her closet. 

I have cherished our friendship over the years,  but I have loved this past year and sharing motherhood with her. I love hearing how her little guy grows and seeing how she has grown as a mommy. She has an amazing heart. She is there for me and my kids anytime I need her. My kids adore their "Aunt Tiffani" and I don't know what I would do without her around.

She is adventurous and simply amazing. I can not wait to see all the new adventures that she will take on in her thirties. Happy Birthday Tiffani!

Nail Shop Here We Come

Today we had a "first". Emmeline broke out her new sandals and asked me to paint her toes. I have been wanting to do this for years. After she realized it was painless, she let me paint her fingernails too.
I am beyond excited. I can not wait to take her for her first mani-pedi!

Starbucks

Oh Starbucks how I have missed you. This year the kids were learning about Lent in school (I love how grown up they are getting) and I decided I would give up Starbucks for Lent. I figured this would be a good example because they know how much Mommy LOVES her Starbucks. I survived my 40 days and even went more than a week past. But today was a STARBUCKS day and it was sooo good.

Monday Funday

Dad was back to work today and it was back to our normal schedule. Morning nap time is a fun time out our house. I am constantly trying to find something new and QUIET (is that possible??) for the Twins and I to do. Today we did shaving cream painting and painter's tape race tracks.
