lottery: cha- ching.

A record was broken in our house last night.......mommy slept for 8 consecutive hours. I haven't gotten that for over a year (before pregnancy).
Today is my lucky day.

oh the games begin.

Today Lo reminded me of one of Liv's favorite old games... (being sarcastic)
she enjoys watching her toy go from the walker (or highchair) to the ground, over, and over, and over.

This little game just reassures me that she is right on target ;)
fun, fun, fun.

New invention...... a retractable toy. Like a fishing rod, but it reels in on it's own if it goes beyond three feet from the child.

picnic with meme.

pre-bath play.

dance party.

three guys and a girl.

All of us, monday playgroup mom's were pregnant together with our seconds....now they are starting to have their own little playtime while the toddlers tear into other parts of the house.

fresh squeezed lemonade.

What a great big sis.

Liv amazes me everyday with her love and kindness towards her sister. I am so proud of her! Lo is a lucky girl to have such a great big sis!

snug bugs...

Lolo.

a good night sleep.

It is pretty sad what I consider a "good nights" sleep. For the past few nights Lo has gone to bed at 7 and woke up at 12ish for a feeding. Then up at 5am. I take her into bed with me at 5 and she nurses and snoozes until about 7:30/8 when her sister gets up.
With a schedule like this, I feel GOLDEN.

my mornings just got easier.

kinesiology/acupressure

Lo had her first treatment today. It was really amazing and I feel it can be promising. Massaging some pressure points and some kinesiologic body testing, the doctor could feel some "static" in areas. We both feel that the homeopathic drops she has been taking and treatments are making her more comfortable.
We are back in 5 weeks for another treatment.

do-rag.

sleepy head.

On my 5 minute drive to Whole foods........ I turn around and find this. (poor thing, this transition from one nap to none is tough on her)

fresh air.

While some garage spring cleaning, the kids enjoyed the fresh air. SPRING FEVER!!!

26 hour with daddy.....

Ry and Liv hopped on the r5 downtown to get some ice cream and do some people watching (she loved watching the skateboarders).

26 hours with daddy....

While Lo and I ventured to AC for the night, Liv and daddy had lots of fun.
(btw- liv is wearing one of Lo's 9 month onsies in these pics)

Bachelorette party!!!

Saturday night was a big night out on the town in AC. I started the day early by heading down to AC in the morning to meet my mom and dad. We headed to SH to check out the renovations of the Krib (which is awesome!!) Let's just say we are counting the days until the summer starts.....

Then we went back to AC to meet all of the girls at the Tropicana in a three room suite. We had fun being super girly and getting dolled up. Then went to Buddakan. Had an AMAZING dinner. We went back the the suite freshened up, had champagne, then went out again. (My mom stayed in a separate room with Charlotte and I was on call to nurse. It worked out great. I only had to feed her before dinner and after.)

It was fun being out again. I had a blast celebrating my sisters last official night of single-hood. ;)

Sorry for the lack of photos. Jeanna was on camera and flip duty.

smiles!
