Zoo time

I may have jumped the gun on this little field trip of ours. Brynn was not as impressed as I had hoped with the entertainment the zoo had to offer. We had fun anyway. I love my girl Gina, she is the best unpaid nanny out there! So consider this post a shout to Gina, woot woot!

The iconic lion drinking fountain.

New BFFS

That smile is worth the $8

She just couldn't quite get close enough

Every good little girl deserves a souvenir

Watch out MAC, Estee Lauder, Clinique...

There is a new make-up guru in town. Brynn is completely obsessed with make-up. Whenever I put on lipstick Brynn is immediately smacking her lips so I don't forget that she "needs" some too. She even assumes the position when it comes to applying the lipstick.Clearly you can tell that she can't stay in the lines, but with a face like hers I would buy anything from her!

Living Planet Aquarium

I really don't want to think of anything clever to say about our field trip to The Living Planet Aquarium. So fill on the blanks yourself!

If you are looking for a Saturday to kill before you kill each other, try this place. We actually had a fun time.

(and just because I don't want to come up with anything clever does not mean that I love my family any less, you crazies!!)

Damn jellyfish ruin a perfectly beautiful ocean!

HAPPY BIRTHDAY BIG DADDY!!!

LIFE IS SO MUCH BETTER WITH YOU AROUND

YOU ARE THE HARDEST WORKER WE KNOW

WE LOVE YOU!

Easter Fun

I hope most of you are pleasantly surprised to see a new post. Truth of it is that this is really the only journal that I have and I apparently have decided to share it with the world for the time being. Hope you enjoy a little glimpse of our Easter fun.

The "Easter Bunny" brought our little one a new swing set.
SO MUCH FUN!!

I'm torn! What is your reason?

I am having a tough time deciding if this blogging @#$% is making me a better person or if it is really just a waste of time. There have been times that it has taken time away from my little girl and really anything constructive. And that alone is a shame!!!! So as the pressure builds to do a new post, I have to admit I may need some time to decide. I have often been curious as to why people even blog in the first place. I am still trying to make sense of mine! My belief is that it is a big world of bragging. Who has the better friends, better car, the best dad and husband, the bigger house, the best clothes, and not to mention kids that never get out of hand!. I must shamefully admit that I am guilty of it too. It is truly embarrassing that blog stalking has become a favorite past time of people everywhere. Pretty sure that I sound like a Debbie downer, but let me assure you that this is not the case. I am just trying to find some reason to all this madness. So please feel free to leave your insight, I really want to know your reason for blogging. Even if you are a stalker. And just to clear the air, my husband is the best, my marriage is successful, my little girl is everything I hoped for, and we are blessed! Can I get a hell ya!
