This ones for the girls!

This past weekend I was so lucky to see my best friends from college!  We had not all been together in over a year, so this weekend was very special.  My best friend Kim was in a play in Lynchburg so it was a great time to get together.  I did a dinner on Friday night for everyone, then it was off to the L-burg for dinner and the musical.  It so much harder to get together these days.  Between the 5 of us we have 5 kids, 8 dogs, 4 husbands, and I think someone has a couple of goldfish.  Congrats Kim on a job well done, you were fabulous!

Guess What??  Baby G is 3 Months today!!!!!!!!


The past 3 months have gone by so quickly!  I know people tell you that all the time but you don't believe them until you have a baby of your own.  She now loves to talk, loves to watch TV (especially hockey and MTV music videos), go to the mall with her mother, and just be the happy baby that she is.  Speaking of talking, I was at the mall last night with Baby G in one of our favorite stores Gymboree.  I was debating on which articles of clothing to by her so I decided to hold them up for baby to see.  Keep in mind the entire time I'm in the store I am basically talking to baby non-stop.  I look around and people are staring.  Does no one else talk to their 3 month old?  And yes, she does know what I'm saying.

Busy weekend ahead.  Sister's bridal shower, hauling the baby to my hometown, and MOTHERS day!!  I did remind my husband today that yes in fact this year I am a mom.  I would just love to sleep in on Sunday as my gift, but he's on 24 hour call on Saturday and won't be home to after the baby is already awake.  So much for that plan, so I guess jewelry will just have to do. :)  Did I remind you that I'm on the princess plan?  That's all for now, have a great weekend everyone!

In the beginning.....

Today I start a new chapter in my life.  Blogging.  I follow several blogs daily and am looking forward to jumping into that world.  As you may already know, I have a lot to say and sometimes nobody to listen to it.  I may never get any followers, but at least I can look back and all that I have done with my life.  I have a beautiful daughter "Baby G" which i am sure you will get sick of hearing about it.  I won't be as bad as Kathie Lee but it could become that way.  BTW, I love the 4th hour of the today show.  Hoda and Kathie Lee are a riot!  We had a blast last night celebrating Cinco de Mayo with friends at a local Mexican restaurant.  4 adults, 1 2-year old, and 2 babies under 4 months might sound like a crazy night, but our love for tequila and any excuse to drink it during the week made everything better.  I will leave you with some pics to get my blog started, I hope you enjoy reading it as much as I enjoy posting.
