Austin, TX


We (just Adam and me) had planned a trip to Mexico (late bday present) and even bought tickets (nonrefundable). We were going with some friends for a whole week and I was oh so excited. Slight problem: Adam hadn't thought to get permission to leave the country from his commander. ughhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh. My parents had even bought tickets to stay with our kids. Oh well maybe another year (yeah right we have said that year after year). So instead we went to Austin. Doesn't compare but we had fun and Adam even suggested shopping! I found a dress for the hospital Gala we are going to in a few weeks and Adam got to go to Lance Armstrong's bike shop and see three of his tour bikes (pretty cool). The first day we got there I slept, then slept in the next morning, and after room service breakfast I slept some more. So I guess it doesn't matter that we weren't in Mexico, as long as I had a big comfy bed with no kids! We found a great ice cream shop and enjoyed a night picnic of Freebirds (my fav burrito place EVER)and bat watching (there are like 1.5 million that live under a bridge and all fly out at dusk). I really enjoyed Austin, but have to admit I like Dallas better!

Greyson Ross!!!!


Now picture me yelling that! Grey had already been bathed, lotioned up, jammies on, and was ready for bed. But he had other ideas. He was NOT done with his bath so he decided to climb in with big sis Lucy. This is MILD compared to most days. Oh and yes that IS his sippy cup in the bath. You can't bathe in your pjs without something to drink duh!

Mom's Day 2009


It seems to be Adam's tradition to go away to some conference for Mother's Day. The good part though is that I always take myself shopping plus he feels bad and also gets me gifts. So this year I went to the mall with the kids and bought myself an outfit for church:) bought myself a WiiFit, then got a babysitter for Grey and took myself and Lucy to get manicures and pedicures. Adam got home Saturday night with flowers and a card and made bfast for me Sunday morning. It was fun, like I said when Adam goes out of town I just get spoiled!!!
