Izzy's 3rd Bday

The pictures are a little late but we did Isaiah's birthday last Saturday at the dinosaur museum with some friends and family. It was a pretty cool joint, lots of stuff for the kids to do which I was grateful for because I was cooking pulled pork at home and I started cooking it too late. Everything worked out and Isaiah got quite the haul this year. Thanks to Nana and Papa for the tricycle, he's still trying to figure out how to pedal but he'll get the hang of it. Thanks to everyone else that came and for the great presents!

Faze

I'm thinking of going through a selfish faze, just to see how it feels. Something tells me I actually won't go through with it but it would be nice to put myself first sometimes. And I'm not just talking about being a Mom, I'm talking about with people in general.

Well I didn't marry him for his brain lol

Darrin was playing some b-ball today with Isaiah and jumped up to grab the rim. Well it just so happens that the basketball poll has been eroding for years now and finally decided to snap. Down came the baskball hoop onto Darrin who fell down on the cement. It was quite a loud crash. Luckily Isaiah wasn't anywhere near the crash so he's fine but as you can tell from the pic Darrin has been better lol

Bride Wars

It was the ultimate face off between the 70's wedding dress and the 2002 wedding dress. Normally the younger dress would win but the victor was the old school dress....PS Darrin wanted to mention he looks really chubby in the 3rd picture

Surprise

On May 6th Darrin, Isaiah and my self drove up to the blustery north to surprise my Mom for her birthday/Mother's day. Since she and Isaiah share the same birthday I thought it would be nice if they were together to celebrate their birthdays. Everyone knew we were coming except Mom so it was really exciting. When we drove up Dad took Isaiah and put a bow on his head..
he walked him through the garage...

and downstairs to the very surprised Mom....as you can see by the face lol

I think it's safe to assume she had no idea.

This one is my favorite picture.

Intro

Hello my name is Erin and I bawl over Grey's Anatomy episodes. Full on sobbing on occasion. My cousin Amber warned me but the latest episode sealed the deal with my sob fest. In short a little 6 year old girl dies because of a terminal lung condition and as her Dad's holds her while she dies I can no longer control the emotions bubbling up. Although Isaiah has never had a serious problem, he has been to the hospital a few times and I can't even imagine what it would be like to go there for something life threatening. Blah! Anyways I thought you should know how sad I am. The End.

Fabulous things on Etsy

I love Etsy and it's dangerous to go on the website because people are always making amazing things. Here are a few of my recent favorites!

I don't why but I love owls now, how cute is this?

I wish I could sew like this, I love the detail around the neck

Okay this is gorgeous and I think the lady is only charging $35 for it

These are so me!!!
