HAHA forgot something....

So I was reviewing my blog after I posted it and realized I forgot the big thing Saturday. Me and some of my girlfriends (Missed my Tam :( ) went to Olive Garden for dinner, then to see Sex and the City 2, then to have drinks and chat. It was a GREAT time and it was so nice to get out with the girls and be silly!! The movie was good, made me want to travel and SHOP! :)

Ok, I think that is really it for this weekend. I gotta get to my mommy duties, laundry and washing bottles! :)

A BUSY weekend!

This past week was difficult for me. I started back to work and Brody started going to a sitter. It was great but very tiring! Work picked up right where I left off, literally. I was assigned cases I started before I went out FOUR months ago! So I guess that is nice because I wasn't having to really work someone's case they started but it still was like BOOM right back as busy as it was before I left! i like staying busy though because it helps the day go by much faster!

Then this week we also met with foundation companies regarding fixing our sink hole. Basically to make a VERY long and VVVVEERRRRYYYY boring story short. The hole is going to be an expensive fix (one me and hubby doesn't think is worth it) and we probably will not be completely done until DECEMBER! I just hope that everything is done and we are back to our normal life by Brody's first Christmas in our house...that is the most important thing to me.

This Friday was our first date night...all night. We went to dinner, then drove around looking at vehicles, and then to a movie. ALL while Brody stayed the night with Nana...it was so hard being without him the whole night, but it is something hubby and I plan to do regularly to give us the ability to still date and focus on just being us! The movie we saw was Killers...it was so good we both LOVED it!

Then Saturday morning Duke got a little pampering while Brody was at Nana's. Our poor pookie has been a GREAT dog with Brody coming into the picture. He watches him and doesnt get jealous of our attention or time, LOVE my pookie!! I just feel so bad for him because he does not get ANY attention to him. So we let pookie get in bed with us and I got him to help me wake Daddy...like the ole days! :) I think he enjoyed the attention.

Duke helping me wake Daddy!

This past week we put Brody in the bumpo (?) thing. He LOVED it. I think it made him happy to feel like a big boy sitting up all by himself. I always think he is bored because he wants to go and do but can't yet, so this was a nice treat for him :)

Watching TV with Daddy

"This is cool mommy!"

He wasn't too sure about it at first!

It has begun!

I have started back to work...therefore my vacation is officially over! :( I am actually glad because I can get things back to normal and in a pattern. Brody started staying with a sitter and we LOVE her. This week I also started my FULL FORCE work out plan. I have played with it a few times and loved it but now that I am back at work and NONE of my dress pants fit I have decided its time to buckle down. I have taken before pictures to compare myself to, but will not be posting those :) haha not a site for all to see! I will take more pictures that I can post so you can follow my journey as well. I also got my hair CHOPPED off....and I LOVE it!

This friday Hubby and I will begin our bi-weekly date night again. I think it is important to continue to date, my mema and pepa still have date night!! So we will start that this friday and I am SO looking forward to it. Not sure what's on the agenda yet...hoping a yummy steak :)

Then saturday I am going to get me some girl time...I am SO excited and it is very much needed!!! Can't wait to hang out with you ladies.

Brody update: he is trying to hold his head up, smiling, and even giggling now!! Each time I pick him up from the sitter he looks sooo different. If you promise to keep a secret...it makes me a lil jealous that she gets to be with my baby all day while I work :( but that's ok because it is what we have to do and I know it is good for him too!!

Well I guess I gotta get to bed it WAY past my bed time!

Bad Blogger!

I keep getting on here checking everyone else's blog but didnt realize I haven't blogged in a while. Not a whole lot going on these days. Finally graduated- WOO HOO!! Sink hole remains a sink hole! Brody is doing AMAZING, he is laughing and smiling.

Lil man's smile is amazing. No matter how bad my day is going he can smile and it will completely turn my day around.

Looking at this face, who couldn't smile!?!

Also recently I got a new camera that I am IN LOVE with. I spent my weekend taking pictures and editing them. I am by far no pro but I enjoy the hobby and wanted to share my fav from this weekend.

This weekend I also saw a commercial about the medicine little man is on. It was one of those commercials where attorneys want you to call them if you are taking this particular medicine. Well what do you know the commercial was about the medicine he is taking. I freaked and told hubby. We tossed his medicine out and said that we would call the doctor on Monday. So I called the doctor today, the nurse explained the me that there are complications with all medicine. I know this! But my problem is these side effects are more serious than "may cause dizziness". She comforted me that the doctor wouldn't give her babies anything that was dangerous, and I know that I trust my doctor. But again I worry. She also told me that the hospitals NICU are still using this medicine daily and that should offer more comfort. So I am not sure what to do because not giving him the medicine this weekend I can tell a big difference and I can see he is in pain without it. I asked if there was an alternate medicine and she said there wasnt anything else on the market at this time that does the same thing. So what do I do!?!? I plan on talking to hubby about it but it has to be the most difficult decision ever. I dont want to see my baby in pain now, but at the same time I dont want to give him a medicine that may hurt him in the long run if he will just grow out of this acid reflux condition. I wish someone could just make the decision for me and it be the best thing for him! Being a mommy is tough, but I still LOVE IT! :)

We are done! :)

I thought the day would never come that I could say "I am a college graduate" but I can now! I am officially done with school and I cannot believe the relief I feel. Hubby has worked on this for 8 years and I have worked on it for 5, geez what are we going to do with our free time!?! We are going to spend it on vacations and family events with our lil man. Since he has gotten here, our days fly so fast. We want to make sure we provide the very best for him and now that we do not have to worry about school and homework it is going to be easier to do that. I look forward to the trips and events we plan to do with lil man.

This saturday at 11:00 we will make it official. Also this weekend will be my first mother's day. I cannot believe that either, I have been celebrating mother's day my entire life but this year is so different. I get to be the mother this time, and I look forward to a life time of many more.

Tonight my hubby and I are going on a date. We have dinner planned and then going to the Carrie Underwood. I'm excited because this will be only our second concert together. And I dont think hubby has been to many concerts before.
