Happy Birthday to Me!



So, I turned 26 on Tuesday! You know they say the older you get the more it's just another day! Normal I make sure my birthday is a BIG deal.. but, this year I failed myself. I have just been so busy with work and being a mom that I kind of forgot about my birthday. But, my wonderful husband, Skyler and Allie made it very special. It started out with cards that Drew had planted all threw out my house.. One from Skyler in the bathroom, One from Allie in my purse and one from him in my car. It was so so sweet because Drew has never-ever given me a card- So, I will be hanging on to that card- I had to work all day but after I got off I went to Drew's softball game then Drew took me to dinner at one of my favorite places "TEXAS ROADHOUSE". After dinner we came home and Drew surprised me with some birthday presents- He got me a gift certificate to the spa, a new purse, a new jewelry box and a gift card to go by some new clothes! He is so sweet. He made my birthday very special! Thanks Babe- Love you!!!

Busy.. Busy..

What a very busy weekend.. Skyler had a lot of firsts this weekend.. Well, it all started off with Friday night- Skyler's first trip to the drive inn! He was such a good boy. We went with Aj and Brittany and saw the Incredible Hulk followed by Iron Man. On Saturday, Skyler went swimming for his first time over at his Aunt Brittany's house. Let's just say Skyler did not play in the water too much.. He screamed so much. He was ok when either Drew or I was holding him but he was very unhappy... Skyler also meet his Aunt Danielle for the first time. And oh boy was he in love with her.. He could not stop staring at her... It was great to spend time with her!!! Love you Dani- After dinner we went and watched fire works with Aj, Brittany and Darin.. over at Jerry's house.. We waited forever for the fire works to start but they never did.. until we started driving home.. oh well.. Boy.. it was a very busy weekend.. Skyler slept most of the day today because he was so tired.. Ok, Drew and I took a nap too!!!

Also, today skyler is 2 months old! He is getting so big. He has started into his 3 months clothes! He has learn that he can smile and I love to make him smile.. He also knows who his mommy and daddy are! It's so great that after a long day at work you get to come home to such a cute little boy that just is so excited to see you!! Also, the other day he sat up by himself.. He has not done it since, I think it was a one time thing because it has not happened since..
Thanks Great Grandma and Grandpa Modahl for the Super COOL Shades!

Happy Father's Day!

It was Drew's first "real" father's day. Allie has gotten him cards and
little things in the past but he is a real father now! We had a really nice day! Of course we where super busy. It started off with an early breakfast with Drew's mom and step dad. The off too up north where we say Drew's grandparents and Drew's dad! It was so much fun to see everyone and they could see how much Skyler has grown! After being up north we went to a movie.. We saw "Don't mess with the zohan" Not the greatest Adam Sandler movie.. but, that is what Drew wanted to see. After the move we went over to my dad. We hung out over there then came home to spend some time as a family. Skyler and Allie had bought Drew some new clothes for his first father's day.. and boy does he look good!! ;-) I got Drew something for father's day but also something to help us out money wise.. He got a Scooter! and boy does he love it. He takes that during the week when he does not take Skyler to Brittany's. His gas bill was getting a little to much for our pocket book.. So, instead of $160 a week in fuel is more like $10 in fuel! Well, Happy Father's day Drew! We love you- And all the other father's out there! We hope you had a great day!

No time for Skyler

So, I'm sure you all know that I'm back to work now.. It's a lot harder then I thought it was going to be. On Monday, my first day back, I dropped Skyler off at my mom's and I was not upset to leave him. I was excited to start back to work.. I got to work and I was so busy that I only had one bathroom break all day!! Boy, does that make for a long day. I had to work late so Drew picked Skyler up. I got home about 8 pm and I was so excited to see my little man.. but he was sleeping ;-( but, I woke him up anyways. I gave him his bath, feed him and put him to bed. Yesterday, Drew took Skyler to Brittany's on his way to work.. So, I got up and got him ready and off he went. It was funny because he was still sound asleep as I changed his diaper and got him dresses. So, needless to say I really only got to see Skyler for like 30 minutes the last 2 days. I really missed him yesterday! I'm sure it will get easier.. I just have to remember the time that I do have with him is super special and cherish every minute with him.

Good bye stay at home mom!

My two babies!

So, today is my last day of being a stay at home mom! I'm going back to work starting Monday! I'm excited to go back to work because I LOVE my job so much! but I'm also sad because I'm going to miss my two cute babies! It really has been fun spending so much time with Skyler. He has started this new obsession with ceiling fans. He will stop everything he is doing if a ceiling fan is going. Also, on a sad note.. He has a little hernia.. His belly button in not in anymore it's out. His intestines are pushing it out because his ab mussels have not formed yet. But the doctors is 99% that is will fix itself. I'm also really thankful for the people that are going to be watching Skyler while I go back to work. On Monday, Wednesday and Friday grandma crazy (my mom) is going to be watching him.. and Allie might be going over there some of the times too. On Tuesday and Thursday Brittany will be watching him.. but, I don't know how long that will last because she is expecting her own little bundle of joy too and I don't want it to be to much stress on her. But on the positive side Drew's dad and Daylane want to take him on Thursdays! So, we will talk to them and work out the details because they live an hour away and that is so far for them to travel. But the things grandparents do for there grandchildren!
