Life Happens

 So, life most certainly happens and time gets away from us!  I FINALLY e-mailed a dear friend back after I think two weeks!  HORRIBLE but hey, I did it and it will be fine.  She understands!  I absolutely LOVE this outfit from Gymboree.  That's why this pic is at the top of my blog.  He is so adorable!


 When we went to the State Fair I got this to eat.  It's actually a cupcake!  It looked so real!  The bun is cupcake, the hot dog is chocolate icing and the mustard is vanilla icing dyed yellow.  



October 13, 2011 was my four year anniversary for quitting smoking.  I won't lie, I've had the urge and several times.  I don't think that will ever go away.  My hubby surprised me with my "Four Roses for Four Years Smoke Free".  As much money as I save not smoking, I think the roses were worth it!  :o)





On another note, I took this picture of Marley the day after we took Dagwood to his new home.  It makes me sad because she looks like she is sad looking out the window wondering where he is.  He drove her nuts but they did play together.  Her and Keiko used to play all the time until he came and took over that so I hope they remember that and start playing again soon.  Dagwood went to a family that I know personally and they said he is SO spoiled.  I am so happy about that.  He was so deprived of the attention he needed and deserved here at our house.  I'm so happy he is where they will play, play, play with him!


Recently while at the Sooner Fashion Mall I was needing to nurse Ryne so I figured I would have to go into the family bathroom to do it until I saw this room!  I was SO excited!  They had a glider rocker, ottoman and changing table in this room and you could lock it and take care of your business.  It was SO nice.  I didn't feel vulnerable or rushed or dirty by being in a BATHROOM.  Thank you Sooner Fashion Mall!



We met our great friends Staci, Curtis and their son Kaden in Wichita this last weekend for a trip to the zoo.  It was so good to see them!!  Below, our first zoo trip as a family.  Well, we went when Ryne was in the oven, so technically second family trip!  


My AWESOME friend Staci.  She is expecting in February and looks so adorable.


My little man just about to sneeze............




Daddy and Ryne........he's such a proud daddy!



Staci, Ryne, Kaden and I.  My darn dimples.  And, YES, Ryne has them too!



Ryne is growing by leaps and bounds.  He actually rolled over from front to back the other day.  He was 11 weeks old this last Sunday.  He opens and closes his fists like crazy but he LOVES to clench them.  He's usually either "riding a motorcycle" or waiting to "box" someone.  I don't think I want him doing either when he grows up.  :o)

He says "Put 'em up!"
