Rex's Birthday

Today is Rex's 3rd birthday! Time has just flown by. I can't believe that my little baby boy is going to be 3 already. It's crazy how fast it has been.


We have a great birthday planned for him. He chose a dinosaur theme which means that we already have almost all the decorations. See for his first birthday we did a huge 50+ guest list T-Rex themed party because of his name. It was fun and really cute and now since he loves dinosaurs we are able to reuse what we have. 


I found a great cake to make online and showed Rex and he is really excited. 




I'm just hoping it turns out OK because I have never made a cake like this before. Actually M's birthday was in February and I made just a regular cake for the first time in about 5 years so this cake is making me nervous.


 We are having a smaller guest list of mostly just family and 2 of Rex's closest friends over to my parents house to join in the fun. The weather is looking great and I think the kids will have a blast outside drawing with chalk, playing in the sandbox, and playing on the swing set. 


Of course Rex is getting spoiled with presents. He's getting trains and a train table from M and myself. Granny and Great Popa are splitting a big driving Jeep gift with him which I think he will love. Then my parents have talked about getting him a fish tank which he loves looking at the fish at their neighbors house and at the library. I think that his 3rd birthday is going to be a blast and I'm so glad that we have such a wonderful boy to celebrate. I couldn't have asked for a better son to have!

Day 2 of 31 Day to Clean

So I have told you the other day that I'm going to start 31 Days to Clean by Sara Mae. (For that post go to 31 days to clean post). So I'm finally on day 2 after several days in between. This will be the way it is for me because not everyday I will be able to tackle a big task, like day number 2, but I did it today and that is what counts. So what was day 2...clean the refrigerator and freezer (at least the Martha part) so that's what I did. I cleaned the refrigerator not that long ago but I figured I would just do it again and I'm glad. Just after about 2 months (maybe 3) it really needed cleaned again and I'm really happy that it looks really nice and I can find all the stuff that is in there again. I think that I'm going to put this on my To Do list every other month. I think that would be really helpful and that way it stays clean. I'm just going to put it in my day planner and when I have some free time on day I will do it that month. Sounds like a pl...

WEDDING! Part 2: The Day Of

**Warning more Picture overload!** I couldn't help it! WEDDING DAY! (August 6, 2005) On our wedding day I was so excited! I got ready at my parents house and J. and the guys got ready at our house. It was so much fun to get our hair done at a long time friends  hair salon .  After that we headed over to my parents house to start getting ready.    Everyone was busy getting me ready and many people were up my dress trying to get my 'fluff' to stay up so I didn't have to hold my dress us when walking.  My dad was kicked out of the house until I was done. I wanted him to get the whole sh-a-bang when he walked in. This was interesting. I had to climb into the truck but was not allowed to step on the tailgate and I couldn't see my feet. It was so funny! It looks like we were going fast but we really weren't but that's how we got to the park.  THE CEREMONY! After all that hard work to make it so I ...

Monkey's Surgery

So I finally downloaded pictures and I thought I'd share the cute pictures of my little boy after his surgery he had in April. No one should have surgery at 3 years old but poor little Monkey had to have his gallbladder removed due to his blood disorder called spherecytosis.  I had to stay in bed with him afterwards. He didn't want me to go anywhere. However, being pregnant made it so I had to use the bathroom quite often so luckily he was OK with Aunt Tiffany or Grandma holding his hand while I went. He hadn't been aloud to eat for almost 48 hours. He was starving! He ate almost the whole plate of pancakes and the nurses were shocked he could eat so much. They kept encouraging us to get him up and out of the room later in the afternoon after the surgery. So we headed out in the wagon first. He wasn't to happy about being moved and we made him walk a little bit in the room but he was glad to be out.  Granny and Great Po...
