Blogger Envy

I love to read other blogs and I secretly wish I was as good of bloggers as they are. One of my favorites is Rants from Mommyland. These two ladies are HILARIOUS!! They go by Kate and Lydia and call their kids things like "Little Terror Suspects" and "A Cupcake Baked by the Devil". I love reading their blogs, they make me laugh.EVERY.DAY. Here is a link to their Rant about mother's day. http://www.rantsfrommommyland.com/2010/05/mothers-day-is-always-disappointment.html

3 year anniversary!

The handy hottie and I celebrated our 3 year anniversary yesterday. Destructo spent the night at his Aunt and Uncles house. HH and I went to see a movie... in a movie theater!! Neither of us can remember the last time we had set foot in a theater. Last night we saw Fast Five. SO.GOOD. What movie can come out with sequel after sequel and they are still awesome?! This movie is for anyone who likes to stare at hot guys, hot girls, hot cars, likes love stories, action, or suspense. You can't go wrong with this movie. I loved it, and I will see it again.

HH and I then went to eat at Casa Gallardo. Now if you know me well enough, you know that I don't like Mexican food. Normally when we go to this restaurant (which is one of the Hottie's favorites) I get chicken fingers or something else that's "safe". But this time, I ventured out and got some steak and chicken fajitas, YUMMY!!! They were delicious!! I'm very excited to have found something that I actually like at this restaurant. With my fajitas, I also enjoyed a very tasty Strawberry Daiquiri. Double YUMMY!!!

Since Destructo was spending the night somewhere else, I took advantage of rearranging my AM schedule this morning so that I could sleep in. For all you moms out there, you can appreciate the fact that I slept till 8:45!!!! (for all you non-moms you're probably thinking WHUCK! that's still really early) But I enjoyed it oh so much!!!! I woke up with out an alarm, with out a crying baby, and without any where to be!

Happy 3 year Anniversary Handy Hottie, I love you!!!

Destructo's first haircut

We took the plung! Destructo had his first haircut and he looks like such a big boy. He's like a mini man now. He went to the same stylist that the Handy Hottie sees and she was great! Popped a sucker in the kids mouth and started cutting away. Here is a before picture and an after picture.

I'm the worst blogger EVER!!

Who cares about days 9 through 30, right??? Instead, lets talk about what an amazing kid I have. Destructo has been going to a new babysitter for 3 weeks now. He is doing so well there and he loves it so much that he doesn't even cry when I drop him off anymore!! Let me tell you how much better my day is when I get a kiss and a wave goodbye instead of tears. Destructo's personality is so great at this age that I wish I could pause life right now and stay here forever. He was talking to the Handy Hottie on the phone the other day (well Daddy was doing the talking) and when he says "okay I have to go", Destructo pulled the phone away from his ear and waves to the phone!! *heart is melting just remembering it* He gives the best hugs. And who can't resist a cutie in cowboy boots?

Day 8 - A picture that makes me laugh

I even had to make this picture large. It makes me laugh EVERY time!!!! Christmas 2010

Day 7 - A picture of my most treasured item

ooops, Saturday was Day 7 buuut, I don't do much blogging on the weekends (that gives me no excuse to why today is Thursday, except that I suck). Back to "A picture of my most treasured item. " This one was really tough for me. I don't know that I could say that I have ever really treasured an item. I tend to focus more on relationships and memories.

So.... I treasure my family. No matter how out of the ordinary, strange, crazy, or well... you get the point. I love my family very much .

I also treasure my friendships. I have so many great friends in my life.

Day 6 - A picture of something I'd like to do again

I would like to go to the wineries again. I've only been ONE time and that was for my bachlorette party in 2008. I think it's time for a trip, who's coming with me!!??

Day 5 - A picture of my favorite memory

Day 4 - A picture of my night

Yeah so I'm not really sure what this day's blog is really supposed to be about. So my evening last night consisted coming home from work to find my two favorite men playing. Even though this picture was not taken last night, it shows the mischief that my Destructo can get into. I love that little guy!

Day 3 - A picture of the cast from my favorite show

I don't feel that I watch a whole lot of television, but there some shows that I'm pretty pasionate about.
My all time favorite show is Alias which is no longer on the air *tear*. I love the action, the romance, and the characters. This show is AWESOME. Jennifer Garner is an amazing actress and lets face it, Michael Vartan and Bradley Cooper are HOOOOT! If you have never seen it then I highly suggest that you call me so you can borrow Season 1 and fall in love with it too.


My favorite show that is on the air at this time is the Office. It's silly and fun. I was not into this show at first because I tried watching mid season last winter while on maternity leave. A friend of let me borrow her seasons on DVD and after just a few episodes of Season 1, I was hooked. If only I could do some of the pranks that Jim does....
