Janie had her birthday party today. Heather and Joe hosted a great low key party. We had yummy food, watched Jane (and Grace) open gifts, and just chilled. The men folk went out to shoot a few hoops. Grace and I walked Reagan for a bit. It was a prefect first year old's party!!
I took this picture while Grace was sitting on my lap reading books. I tried to get her to look at the camera, but what can I say, the girl LOVES books.
Lucy got her spring hair cut today. She looks so utterly naked!! I think it is a hoot how white/blond her base coat is, keep in mind that Lucy and Evie are usually the same exact color!
Brad and I went to a great dinner at Flemings this evening. It was great food, but our favorites were the appetizer and the desserts (Wicked BBQ Spicy Shrimp and a Molten Chocolate Cake with vanilla ice cream, though i did have to ask for extra ice cream:) ) We decided against a movie and just meandered thru the Gateway shops. I dressed for a nice dinner and not for walking. So eventually I bought some new flip flops and ditched the high heels that I had been wearing. All that cobblestone at the gateway is NOT high heel friendly! We perused the shelves at Barnes & Noble and bought an arm full of great books. I am making the kids do more book reports this summer, so I bought a few great summer reads for the kids (The Cay for Shakierra and The Outsiders & The Giver for Myles). I love bookstores, I can spend hours walking thru and reading book summaries. I even treated myself to a new bookmark!!
Well I better go get Brad to bed. He worked last night and has yet to go to bed. He is on his 32nd hour of being awake. The poor guy, I would have fallen dead from exhaustion by now.
Happy Mother's day to all you Mothers out there!!!
