    A Yo Gaba Gaba Birthday

    After all the planning and preparation, Ben’s birthday party was a success. Everyone seemed to have fun and most importantly the birthday boy had a blast. With Ben’s obsession with Yo Gaba Gaba, I knew that we had no choice but to have a character themed birthday this year. Wide awake and ready to celebrate. Enjoying a special heart shaped breakfast. After breakfast we spent the morning playing, picking up cake, and finishing up last minute details for the party. Then it was time for a nap and when Ben woke up, the party began. All the delicious food. It’s always pretty stressful at the last minute finishing up all…

    Happy Birthday to Me

    Let me just start off by saying that I am spoiled. My friend Melissa might tell you that when we were younger I would start crying if I didn’t get my way or something I wanted. She is a big.fat.liar. Don’t listen to her. There is a difference between being spoiled and being a spoiled brat and although I’m definitely the first one, I truly appreciate everything. That being said, I had a great birthday filled with lots of celebration. Friday at work I received these from my wonderful mother. When I came home I was greeted with this from J. And just what was in my little pink bag?…

    Life Update

     Remember Ben’s first movie I was taking him to? We saw Barnyard(well some of it) and Ben did great and lasted about an hour. The theater on the other hand, EPIC FAIL. We settled into our seats, the lights went down, Ben began to eat his popcorn and then about 10 minutes in the lights came back on and the movie stopped. Ben’s response, “uh-oh.” The manager came into the theater and informed us that they had sent a large number of people to the wrong theater so they were going to bring all those people into our theater and restart the movie. Just as everyone crammed into what empty seats there…
