Bambinos and birthdays

So, for those of you that don't already know.....we are having a BOY in December! I'm not exactly sure how I feel about this.  Girls are just easy for me now! I mean, I know how to handle a girl, all you do is put in beauty and the beast and all is well with the world. I put Lyla in the shower with me this morning to save time.....can you even do that with a boy? Is that weird? So many silly questions JUST like that I have.  Poor kid, I hope he will be patient with me!!



Noe started 3rd grade last week.

Of course Lyla had to have a picture too

Third grade has already been eventful! We have officially been in school for 4 whole days and we have already had one fundraiser packet sent home, homework every night, and the first cold virus of the season has attacked the house. Nice.



Last weekend I turned the big 2-9. Mark and I celebrated with absolutely no children. Does that sound bad? Mama needed a break, so we went to Atlanta.  We went to see the Chicago Cubs play the Atlanta Braves. Unfortunately, the Cubs lost.  Chipper Jones was actually hitting a home run for the braves as we walked into the park.....hence the fireworks. 

We stayed at the the downtown Hilton and woke up on my birthday to a completely kid free meal at Cracker Barrel! Then we drove home and hit the outlets on our way.....and ULTA!! What birthday is complete without a little Ulta shopping?  I have to say it was one of the best birthdays ever. I have the best husband ever!!

This was the view from our hotel room

As I said.....BEST. BIRTHDAY. EVER
