April was kind of a great month. Stephen has become more fun and interactive and we’re able to actually leave the house without a meltdown. It really makes me happy. Not only are his doctor appointments and trips to the grocery store a million times easier, but we could throw in a few fun things…

Happy Halloween!
We stayed home today. I mostly sat on my big booty while my husband packed the kitchen getting ready for the remodel next week. But we DID go out on Friday and Saturday nights so we wouldn’t feel too old and boring. This was our (very last minute) costume: Juno & Paulie Bleeker Hope everyone…
4th of July
Usually for Independence Day we get together with the friends at someone’s house to BBQ/relax. This year we wanted to mix it up a little, so we got together with the friends and went down to Long Beach. We had a great lunch at the Yardhouse and walked around Shoreline Village for a bit. We…
Christmas 2009
We went to Utah for Christmas to visit my side of the family. It was a lot of fun. We ate so much dang food. But thank goodness it’s not just me. From the looks of other blogs and facebook updates I’m reading, it sounds like most of us kept with the American tradition and…
Christmahannukah Party
OK so after all my un-merry talk, I had my first twinge of holiday excitement when I attended the fabulous Christmahannukah Party put on my one of my besties.

Bah-humbug...

Ugly Sweater Party Pics
On Saturday we had our first Ugly Sweater Party. It was more difficult than I thought to actually FIND ugly sweaters, but everyone did a pretty good job. Even had a few people end up with the same ones! We had a gift exchange, games, and oh so much food. It was a lot of…
Successful Christmas!
When I say successful, I mean it was relaxing, fun and stress-free. Luckily I got most of my Christmas shopping done pretty early this year, so on Christmas Eve we got to focus on just wrapping the gifts and preparing delicious food. We had the Christmas music going and it was raining outside, so it…
Reasons To Love The Season
So I was at the gym yesterday (after not going for about 2 weeks) and as you go around the Curves work-out circle, they have little signs on the floor with quotes and health tips – you know, something to read so you don’t get bored doing the same work-out day after day. Anyway, as…
