Girls weekend 2005

I was looking at some old pics and ran into these of Diana, Kristy and me on our little Austin getaway. They made me smile..

Questions

Last night while Ella, Ian and I were lying on my bed and Ian was patting and hugging on my belly, Ella pointed to my belly button and asked "Is that where the baby comes out of?" I Said no and then told her using correct terminology. She looked at me very puzzled and said "from....China?". I love my lulu.

The Zoo (again)

We spent yesterday at the Dallas zoo with some of our friends.It was a really perfect day; good weather, good friends, good food and the most wonderful thing was that I didn't have a single contraction and I didn't almost pass out (both very regular occurrences) I even came home and cooked dinner and cleaned the kitchen!
The most important thing is that the kids had a blast. Ella and Emma were such cute little girls together, holding hands and chatting it up but they would fight because they wanted to both talk at the very same time. Josh, Gabe and Ian loved climbing on anything high.
Like I said a perfect day!

The Autorama

Let me just say that I have a secret love for classic cars it's one of my many quarks it's something Gordon and I have in common and I just don't it to appease him I really love classic cars.
So last weekend we went to the Autorama and had a great time, the best part of the Autorama is that there are quite a few of the cars for sale so it's a little like dream shopping on the first floor of the Galleria. They did have a few Broncos restored so I am hoping it will help Gordon get excited about fixing his up again. (He's going to be upset by that)

Fairfield

My Grandma sold her weekend home in Fairfield, so we all went down for the last time to help clean it out and to say goodbye.

Ella, Ben Maren and Ian

Josh and Elliott

I have know idea what Josh is doing.

Ella and Papa

Ian's Three

For Ian's 3rd Birthday, our entire family (It ended up being 24 people in all, too much for my house) came over for cake and Ice cream.I had originally planed to make a Hot wheels cake but due to the fact that I wasn’t feeling good I opted for a Sam’s Club cake that I decorated with a few hot wheels, I had felt bad about not making a cake but since he loved this one I got over that real fast. This was especially fun for me because Ian has grasped the concept of birthdays and milked it for all it was worth, all day long when Ian wasn't getting his way he would quickly remind us that he was now 3 and it was his birthday. I am so glad that Ian had such a good birthday and that he felt so special.

check it out!

I totaly took this idea from my friend Farrah. But it's cute!
