::this weekend we are having lane's 3rd birthday party. as in party, just a family party. i haven't done a single thing for it. nothing. absolutely nothing. must.get.started!! the other day he heard me talking to dana on the phone and i was saying how we're just having family for his birthday, no friends or anything, just real simple. he instantly spoke up and said "no, my want to have friends. my friends make me real happy. my friends at my house, eat cupcakes too?" oh man, that kid knows how to put a quilt trip on his mama's heart. i'm hoping he'll forget about friends once he sees some presents.
::vance and i just celebrated our 6th wedding anniversary. actually, we weren't even together on our actual anniversary. sad, but, tickets were way cheaper to travel when we did...practicality always wins at our house. 
::we celebrated 6 years by going out to eat without the kids!! a first for us....a babysitter!!!! we may be the most overprotective parents around. its way hard for us to even think about leaving our kids with someone....but we did it. and they survived. uhm, want to go out this weekend babe?!
::we have all been fighting a horrible terrible cold/flu bug. in fact, our anniversary date was pretty much lack luster. vance and i both felt terrible. body aches, coughing, temperatures, and mexican food are hardly a good combo.
::speaking of being sick....the boys have been too. it never fails, they hear the word "omaha" and get sick instantly. somehow every trip we end up going to pediatric emergi-care. this time they both have double ear infections and have been soooo not fun to be around. our family must have low thoughts of our kids, they pretty grumpy when sick....whiney, crying, icky. come to colorado and see the real them:)
::this past week we've had lots of cute moments.
...we saw the ever darling addie.
...mr. owen
lane brain...
gagers...
and of course, the brand new precious penny...
::today, instead of checking off the huge list of to dos, i took nearly a 2 hour nap. it was glorious. it seemed like a good idea at the time. now, not so much.
::gage took a 5 hour nap today. he woke up only because i woke him. crazy.
::saying goodbye to penny & renee last night was one of the hardest things i've done in a long time. we were a soppy crying mess right there in the middle of b&g's tasty foods saying our goodbyes. my arms miss holding that sweet baby.
::gage is in such mama mode. he won't let anybody else hold him. straight up, mama's boy.
::the other night while in nebraska we were all about to sit down for supper. owen started to throw up. i said, "don't let lane see it, he can't handle seeing throw up" it was too late. all of a sudden lane was yelling/covering his mouth/gagging "trash can. trash can please." ...even in a moment of throwing up, lane remembers his manners. thats my boy:) ...and yes, he did throw up in the trash can.
::colorado has very little appeal to me today. its has snowed all day! yesterday we were in shorts & tees.
::ok, my 15 minutes are up. we've got some crazy busy weeks ahead...may is a very full month!
