BIG 2-9

Last week I celebrated my 29th Bday. I had a wonderful bday week. I'm so glad my hub realizes that girls deserve an entire week to celebrate their bday! KT babysat Audrey every single night last week...bless his heart!



Rachel came over and gave me a free color...Audrey REALLY wanted her color done too but she settled for a couple high lights. (foils only)



Kyle has VERY strict gift giving rules. No gift is EVER given before the day of. So, I walked into the living room and it was like Christmas morning!!! I found this bad-boy all set up and ready to go. I didn't ask for it so I was TOTALLY surprised.



Audrey was with me (she drags me out of bed every morning) and she was just as surprised, she had the wrong idea though. She ran to the stroller screaming 'baby!' and peeked inside the sun shade to find no baby. I guess she thought somebody had dropped one off.


I spent the morning having breakfast at my fav spot with some of my fav friends!

Then off to Dland with NO KIDS (Thanks to my wonderful mother in law!) for the day with this fun gal! I pooped out before our night was done so she drove me to Bloomingdale's to finish the bday night off right.

I celebrated with my family later in the week. It was so fun to go out with everybody.

And, so good to see this little guy!

And, these little guys! I'm loving my Rachie's hair dark!

Kyle and I played house with baby Ryan...or Kyle did anyway. Audrey is CRACKING me up in this picture...her face is so washed out but she's def up to no good.

This guy is obsessed with his niece and nephew...he wants to hold them ALL THE TIME.

I enjoyed a super fun night out with the gals to celebrate. We have such a big fun group and I love them all.

Thanks everyone, for making my bday so much fun!

Dear Landlord,

Old Faithful just showed up in my backyard and I keep forgetting to tell you. Can you put him back where he belongs? Thanks a lot!

ps. I accidently spent my rent money at Nordstrom, please don't kick me out.

One of my favorite bday presents this year was a photo session from ( www.sarahhullphotography.blogspot.com ) the most talented gal!

Don't be jealous of my special bday card ladies!

Audrey Lately

Just wanted to share a few things Audrey has been doing lately that make me smile.


Audrey fell in love with these pink boots in front of Grandma Natalie at Target so Grandma couldn't resist. They are worn EVERY DAY...I knew Audrey's boot day would come eventually.



Audrey has also started saying 'cheese' for the camera and posing which is WONDERFUL.

Audrey has started DEMANDING to wear certain items. The demands are a lot stronger when she is tired so bedtime is a lost cause these days. That tank top and flower bow were the demands of this night.

Audrey LOVES to 'pound it out' especially with daddy. She kisses all of her own owies. I don't even know she has been hurt until I see her kissing a body part.

Gone Ape

Audrey and KT were running around acting like monkeys last night. KT was literally swinging from poles and hanging from the ceiling!

The ape went running the second the pictures for the blog started snapping...

Audrey is finally realizing all the fun things her dad is good for.
