Heres a funny thing Aubrey said yesterday--


We have our insta-set pool up and its a few years old and not in so good shape. We couldnt figure out why it was loosing so much water everyday..we thought maybe because the kids splashed it out or dumped it. But then Aubrey had her theory..."Maybe its hybernating". (me and Tony look at each other thinking what the heck) and then Aubrey continued "you know when the water goes up to the clouds". Then we started laughing cause we realized what she meant was EVAPERATION. lol!

Another story that happened like a year ago--

The kids were riding there bikes out front and Weston had ran over our Lantana plant. Aubrey being the little tattle tail she is came and said "mommy, Weston ran over the Hannah Montana plant"!

Shes so cute..

Throwing away my razors

For over a year now I have been going to American Laser Centers in Mesa. First I went to improve my skin by getting the Affirm followed by the Microdermabrasion. Then I got offered an awesome deal I couldn't turn down. Im now getting laser hair removal on my underarms and *GASP* the fully extended Brazilian. (yeah thats all the front and all the back) Soon I will never have to shave there again. Oh the joys!!! Ive been happy with the girls who work there and the results thus far. I would highly recommend them 480-634-6231. Tell em Kaylyn sent you! Got any questions? Im more than happy to answer them for you.

Enjoying the good ol outdoors

Sage had her 18 month check up today. Shes 24.02 lbs 50th percentile on weight and 32.5" tall which is 75% on height. Phew! She got daddys tall jeans and not my short ones. She is healthy and happy! She even waved goodbye to the doctors after getting her shot. Aww! Now we dont need anymore shots until shes 4 years old...thanks goodness for that! Shes saying lots of new words like ball, whats that, mommy, daddy, right there, hot, shoes, ouch, hi (on rare occasion) We love her funny personality and her quirky faces she makes. Shes such a good baby..or I mean toddler. She sleeps well, eats okay and plays really good with everyone (once shes warmed up to them). Looove her!

I had a fun busy weekend! I flew to Nashville and met up with my good friend Jolene. It rained about half the time and was humid but I was very green and beautiful there. This is a busy week for me...I have appointments, bday parties and stuff I need to get done. Next week is also very busy for me. Here are some pictures of me and Sage.

Aubreys Birthday Party and dinner

We had Aubreys Birthday Saturday afternoon! She had a few friends over to play on the water slide! After that we had cake and icecream popsicles (thats what she wanted)! She opened her presents and then they played a few balloon and water games. After everyone left I made the kids shower and we got ready for dinner. We met my parents and Tonys parents at Ruby Tuesdays. On her actual birthday (Sunday), we made her breakfast of her choice which was waffles and she got to play with her new toys and games!!! I just cant believe she is 6 years old already! Shes so beautiful and sweet. We love her very much!!!

Did anybody else watch the new episode Jon & Kate plus 8 last night? I actually felt sad for the family! Is that weird for me to feel bad for them? What do you all think about whats happening?

Life as of now is going fine and dandy! No sick kids...(knock on wood), school is almost out and no major catastrophes. We've been a bit more busy than normal but that comes natural to the end of the school year and summer.

Aubreys birthday is on Sunday. I cant believe shes going to be 6! We will be having a girly swim party here at our house for her little friends on Saturday then afterwards we will be meeting up with the grandparents for dinner. (location is still up in the air) Aubrey keeps changing her mind where she wants to go...first it was Ruby Tuesdays then it was Red Robin but then she said TGIFridays. Typical, huh! A girl can change her mind alot. She changes her clothes at least 2 times a day! Silly girl!!!!

We have been fortunate to have good friends and neighbors..we've been doing alot of activities with them and the family too! These next 2 weeks are gonna be crazy with doctor appointments, dentist appointments and school functions. But then summer will be here and we can stay indoors instead of melting out in the heat. Dont get me wrong...I love it warm. Thats why I live in Arizona! I wish I had a pool..that would make summer alot more fun and do-able. Ahhhh, someday a pool with be in my backyard! 10 years from now :(

Well off to do some yard work and hopefully get a tan while at it! Then off to Aubreys class to hand out birthday invitations.

Make a Smilebox scrapbook Its not quite Aubreys birthday yet (May 31st) but I had some extra time on my hands and wanted to make this.
