One Year Ago Today....

I LOVE THE WEEKENDS!!!!
So.... what awaits me in 2 hours and 17 minutes!!! First off I will pick up Palmer. (Who by the way now as an obstructed ear tube that we are treating with ear drops and anti-biotics..if those don't work off to get new tubes. Why they can't just suck the junk out of there who knows, it is a conspiracy among drs to make me spend more money!) ANYWHO... I will pick up Palmer and give him lots of hugs and kisses before I run off for.....
GIRLS NIGHT!!! Do you know how pumped I am about this? I haven't had a true weekend night Girls Night in Forever! Us girls are headed to Norton Commons to eat and hang out outside on the patio (hopefully if the weather cooperates) I am just so excited to have some womanly conversations with no interruptions of babies or testosterone! :) A meal where I am not picking puffs off the ground or feeding anyone else but myself. A meal where I do not have to scoot a highchair away from the table in fear of plates and drink cups flying! A meal where I don't have to worry about anyone but ME :) TRUE BLISS!!
Tomorrow morning though it is back to mommy mode when Palmer and I walk with Kimmie and Katie in the Waggin Trails 5k, that should be fun and interesting to say the least! And then our weekend is plan free!!! We can do whatever our little hearts desire that is after I run errands, wrap presents, change sheets, and desperately scrub the house to get ready for my mom's arrival and Palmer's b-day. After that though we can do whatever we want :)
I just checked the weather for P's b-day pary and it is "supposed" to be 74 and partly cloudy! Partly cloudy I can deal with, 80% chance of thunderstorms I can't! Keep your fingers crossed. I am just so excited to see all of my friends and family not just because of P's b-day but because I want and need them close to me! My family and friends mean the world to me and now that so many of my friends are having babies and are pregnant their kids automatically mean the world to me too and my heart grows even bigger each time a new life is born into our circle. I miss their kids and watching them grow everyday so Palmer's birthday will be a celebration of good family and good friends and how we have evolved and have grown so much over the years!
So... to everyone TGIF!!!!

RANDOM CATCH UP ON PICTURES!!
Oh and ONLY 15 Days, 0 Hours, 54 Minutes and 30 Seconds until Palmer is 1 :)
SO HAPPY!
Greatest Picture Ever!
Still Wanting more Skin!
AWWWW! Trying to hug Daddy now!
Ok, back to clawing at him!
We don't take many pics but this is a picture of Tex and I when we went to Brown Co with the Prathers! It was our first true overnight trip since Palmer was born!

I GOT MY STIMULUS CHECK!!!!
So as any good citizen would do I have already accumulated many great ways to spend, spend, spend this money! I feel it is my duty to the economy to not put this money into my savings account where it should go but rather run as quickly as I can to the nearest Walmart, Target, Mall, etc.... and see how fast I can spend it and that is exactly what I intend to do starting tonight! :)
As everyone in the city of Louisville attends Derby parties and events my family has involuntarily chosen to boycott the festivities and instead go shopping! The first purchase of the night is going to be Palmer's swing set (Shhhh! It's a secret for his birthday!!!) We are so excited and all the reviews on Walmart.com say it only takes 7 hours to assemble! WOOHOO!
I think Palmer will love it! I can't wait to see his happy little face when he gets to swing everyday!! The second purchase we are going to make is Landscaping and some additional patio furniture. I wish someone would "makeover" our patio and yard but we are going to have our own DIY mini makeover. I want it to exude summer paradise when I walk out my back door that is until you notice the other 2 houses so close you can touch them and my neighbors not so finished above ground pool, but anyways off the subject. I want it to be a kid friendly mini oasis (is that an oxymoron?) So, i am thinking about 2 chaise lounges, that sounds nice right?
Well, anyways most of the money is going to go to the outdoor makeover so hopefully Tex and I will know what we are doing when making over our yard. The rest of the money will go toward P's b-day and our family trip to Destin!!! (By the way I can't wait to be on the beach) So I will rest easy tonight knowing that I am helping the economy by spending my money on frivolous things rather than saving it or investing it for the future. God Bless America :)
PS... Sorry I have posted for a while. Bad Blogger! I promise to be more diligent in my efforts. (Can you sense the sarcasm throughout this whole post?) I do have some hilarious pics of P and Tex that I must post soon!!!
