Good Ol' Fashioned GIRLS NIGHT OUT

I decided to celebrate my 33rd birthday with the wonderful women in my life (and some hard core booty shaking - haha). What a fun night! Thanks, ladies, for celebrating with me! Love ya!

This and That

I feel like I haven't blogged in so long. Life with the kiddos is keeping me busy :) Just wanted to share a few exciting/funny/scary moments...

First off, let me tell you just how silly and smart Elizabeth is. She is now crawling, pulling herself to standing, waving, saying "braba" (brother) and "Joja" (Joseph) all the time, eating everything in sight, and entertaining anyone she sees by making silly faces. She even knows to do "scrunch face" or "the look" on command, then she smiles. Check her out! :)

Joseph is now swimming! He completed a swimming lesson course this past week, and LOVES to swim with his face in the water. He can hold his breath under the water for 15 seconds. He is so proud of his new skill.

Matthew (and Joseph) started a "Playtime" class at the community center this past week, so I dropped my little 3 year old off for the first time. I was SO nervous about it. I told them he has problems articulating his words, and he just potty trained a few months ago, so he might need a little help. Matthew didn't even say goodbye to me. He was off and playing in no time. I think it helps to have his big brother there. He also has his good buddy, Jack, there, too. I'm so proud of him yet so sad to watch him leave me. He is definitely my "mama's boy."

I enjoy my children thoroughly. They bring me such overwhelming joy (and frustration at times LOL). Life doesn't get much better than this.

God Bless America!

Happy 4th of July everyone! Hope you had a fun, safe day. Thank you to all who have protected, who protect, and who will protect our freedom!
