State Fair Baby!
We made our way to the state fair last Sunday. It was loads of fun. We took our time to preview all of the food selections and rides before deciding that our first event would be to ride the bumble bee… actually, Aiden decided this.

Next order of business, riding the dump [...]

[cup]Cake!!!
We recently celebrated Aiden’s second birthday in a good old fashioned way.
No petting zoo, clowns or herds of sugar hyped unruly toddlers…. just mommy, daddy and birthday boy… and the [cup]cake! Although to be truthful, we had at least planned to celebrate with other family members, but our schedules just wouldn’t allow.
I don’t know which [...]
Dolce & Gabanna
The old me purchased most clothing at Wal-Mart, Target, Stein-Mart etc. Decent clothes; cute, comfy, fashionable enough plus, I wouldn’t have a coronary if I ruined something.

What began as a perfectly normal blustery day last week, turned into a day full of surprises.
Getting dressed Thursday morning, I thought how [...]

I’m late, I’m late for a very important date!
Not really… Just finding myself pressed for time to gather and organize photos and supplies for Monday and Tuesday’s scrapbook session. I tried for four days to sit at my laptop and choose photos to upload and print. Did I get it done? No. Why? Aiden. Err.
No, I’m not “hatin’” on my child, I’m just [...]
