Dear Alex, I’m not one for writing sappy letters anymore, but I was just amazed over the week we spent together during Spring Break. You amaze me. You discover and learn each every day. I love it when you say T-to (thank you) after I say thank you. I’m trying to teach you to say you’re welcome, but I think you’d rather say T-to instead. When I say I love you and you reply with wa-wuv u. Then, I say you need to say I love you too and then you say three! That’s hilarious. I find it quite humorous…

This week’s Photo Scavenger Hunt theme is round. I chose this pic because of the soccer ball that’s round.

Today Rob and I celebrated Valentine’s Day. Remember how we celebrate it late. We had lunch at Red Lobster, while Uncle Nick watched the kids. I really enjoyed myself. We stuffed ourselves. We have so many leftovers, it’s not even funny. I’m on some new meds, which I think it’s interfering with my appetite. Anyway, so I gave Rob the movie, Fever Pitch and a couple other things. He got me the movie The Notebook and an autographed copy of Going Places! Yes, Rob now reads my blog.

Appetizer Name 3 things that you think are strange. People who think they should use a turn signal when the car in front of them is turning and they’re not. That irks me!

Salad What is one lesson you have learned in the past year? I’m learning to see constructive critism as helpful and not personal. Main Course Tell us about one of your childhood memories.

For those of who know me well, know that I’m a reality TV addict! So the other night, I watched Next Food Network Star. I didn’t watch the first season so I wasn’t sure what to expect. But, I’m totally hooked now! I set the DVR to record the entire season. Watching the 2nd episode, I was so shocked to see all the preparation and work that goes into 1 episode of a cooking show. I was also surprised that they tape it live with no stops. If you mess up, oh well, you gotta keep going. Not only do…

Ok, why is it that work weeks creep by, but spring break flies by in the blink of an eye? It’s Wednesday already! Yes, I’m sorry for those of you who work year round and I know I’m lucky to have off when I do. I just can’t help it. I’m dreading going back to work, because for 2 straight weeks the kids will be taking the SAT10 and the ARMT. Yuck! Normally when I have a day off here or there I spend it cleaning, washing, you know all that fun stuff called house work? So I told myself…

Here’s Alex after having his first real haircut at the Barber Shop. He watched his Daddy and big brother get a haircut. When it was his turn, he sat up there. He didn’t utter a sound. He sat still. He was perfect! Drew threw a royal fit the first time he went there. I think having a big brother to watch first helped him know everything was going to be ok.

It’s crazy that my baby is turning 2 on Tuesday! I just can’t believe it. Where HAS the time gone? It seems like just yesterday when he was born. We’re celebrating his birthday next weekend, because Rob’s mom and step dad were out of town this weekend. Tuesday, Drew has his Den meeting, where he’ll get his Bobcat. So we’ll be busy with that on the *big* day!

Hope everyone who celebrates the day is having the most romantic time evah! I’m sitting here figuring out what I’m going to cook for dinner feeling sorry for myself. 🙂 And for Monica, Rob and I don’t celebrate the day basically because he has always hated the day. It’s a commercialized holiday that he used to spend the evening stressing out over the plans that didn’t turn out the way he had planned. We decided that we would celebrate it the last weekend in March or the first weekend in April every year, but we never really do that either.…

My Dad recently came to visit and it was great! Here’s a few pics from that weekend.

Sorry I’ve been MIA, but this past week has been hectic. Friday we had an Auburn Diamond Club banquet. Then, my dad, who I haven’t seen since 2002 came to visit and I was really excited that he was able to come. We enjoyed the beautiful weather by walking around on campus while showing him around. We ate lunch at Chappy’s Deli and dinner at Cock of the Walk. Today we just hung out here and then we made homemade pasta for dinner. The boys really enjoyed seeing him. Alex has never seen him and Drew didn’t remember him. He…

Yawn… I’m so tired! The party with the five boys plus mine went pretty well. They enjoyed the surprise, which was an Auburn basketball game. He wasn’t thrilled with that at first, but Drew got to meet some cheerleaders and had his birthday announced during the game. After the game, we came back and they played. We did pizza for dinner and opened presents. They played more, and then we did cupcakes. Through the night, they had some spats. Four of the five kids spent the night, so it made for an interesting evening. We let them watch a couple…
