crusin'

Yahoo! I found out Monday that Jonathan and I are going on a cruise for our anniversary! I'm so excited, first we haven't been on a trip together in a long time and second I've never been on a cruise. In celebration I went to Gap and bought 3 new swim suits ( they were all on clearance).

Here's the other thing I'm excited about: we're getting a new fridge! Our other one will live in the garage and hold all the cold drinks! What room we will have, I can see it know, a whole watermelon, diet coke galore, a place to put leftovers, a place to put more frozen stuff! Yipee!

Do do pee doooo!

School is over
School is over
School is over, hey, hey ,hey, hey!

We had end of the year breakfast this morning and everyone's favorite part is when they draw names for $100 bills! Yes my district gives out 20 ben franklin's to employees whose name is drawn and are present. Last year I won one of the bills, it was the best! I had just had Bowen three weeks before and I used that money to go buy some clothes I could fit in, it made my year!
I went to a bar with some school friends last night and had such a great time! I love my friends but it's so fun to make new ones, new friendships are so exciting, you get to tell about yourself and learn about others lives. If you think about it, as an adult, you don't get the new friend opportunity as often as in college, I like it.
I can't wait to start this summer!

Thought we had made it...but not really.

I was silly for me to assume our family was in the clear for sickness till school was out. I was even thinking that I had a sick day left and I could take it and have a day at home just to chill. You know what assuming does right? Bowen wakes up this morning and I go to get him. He has throw up all over him, he must have barfed during the night and wallered in it all night long. So he gets a bath and I'm praying that he's OK, he lays on the couch and drinks his morning bottle and pretty soon said bottle is all over couch after coming out his mouth. Gross. He also has a snot like substance coming out his nose, no that would make sense, really it's coming out his EAR. Ick. So he's on antibiotics for that. I'm hoping that the hurling is due to congestion and not to a stomach bug in addition to an ear infection. Anyway I'm at home today washing sheets and couch cushion covers.
I had a great Mother's Day, I'm eagerly awaiting my gift, it's a cool razr phone that's PINK, how cool is that! I also received a present from Jonathan before Mother's Day that consisted of diamonds to wear on my neck. Jewelry for the body that includes sparkley things is never the wrong gift. Jonathan said it was a putting up present, a present for putting up with him since he broke his leg, what a guy.
My pitiful boy just woke up so, off I go!

Birthday Pictures!

Celebrate Good Times, Come On!

It's official Bowen is ONE! I spent most of today thinking, one year ago today I was __________. Mostly I filled in the blanks with things like, getting my water broken, getting the epidural placed, getting the epidural placed again, pushing, pushing, pushing, holding Bowen. I'll have to say I love Bowen today more than I loved him one year ago, I hope that's normal. I'm so glad that Bowen is a boy, when we found out he was indeed a he, I was worried I wasn't sure what i would do with a boy. All my fears washed away when I saw that baby! And he has grown on me ever since! There were a few times I thought I might put him out in the yard, but I didn't and he has grown out of his reflux and his tubes are working great so he is a MUCH happier baby now. He loves me lots too, I never knew a snuggly baby before Bowen but he loves to be near me and love on me. I used to think it was just my nice rack, but now I know it was just me! I Love You Bowen, Happy First Birthday!
