Thursday-Sunday

It's been awhile since i've been able to write a blog, so let me catch up. Thursday we had my mother-in-law over for dinner. I made meatloaf. Then I helped her make a card for her cousin Annie's 50th b-day. It was a really nice evening and the girls love seeing their grandma. 3/4/10 3/4/10 3/4/10 3/4/10 Lani w/Gram 3/4/10 3/4/10 Friday, I went out with Sammie, Annette and nephew's gf, Gabby. My nephew, Matt and great nephew, Landon stayed to keep Matt company. We went to Baby R Us to look at baby clothes and Christening outfits. Then we went to Applebees for dinner. Their grilled chicken ceasar salads are yummy. We had some good laughs on the way home especially when I tried giving Annette directions. I suck at giving directions, but we made it home safe :) It's nice to have a girls night out once in awhile.:) After everyone left Jay and his lady, Jen then came over til about 2am. Good times!

I'm going to have to use the gown I got Alaina for her baptism rather go buy another. Was so upset because when I took it out thursday I saw a couple stains on it, so I need to get it dry cleaned right away. Thanks to my thoughtful sister-in-law, Theresa I was able to get Bella this beautiful bib, bracelet and headband to go with the gown. She even got Bella's cake. Thanks so much T! <3

Saturday, my dad, sister and nephew came over to visit. We ordered pizza and wings since it's been awhile and Matt was craving his wings. Alaina was having SOOOO much fun playing with Ethan, so I talked my sister into staying the night. Boy were they sugared up lol! They were chasing eachother from the livingroom, to the diningroom and back. I loved hearing them laugh and having a good time.

Today, Alaina went with grandma to her cousin Annie's house. Annie turned 50! Happy 50th Birthday Annie!!! They only saw Alaina once when she was two months old, so that was nice of Kathy to take her along. I'm sure she's having a blast, but I miss her already :(

I must say it's been an awesome few days with friends and family. Matt and I are so blessed to have such great friends and family. He's doing better today than yesterday. I need to remind him to take an easy or he over does it. Men!

Well, I'm off to watch the Academy Awards. I hope everyone had an awesome weekend! God Bless! Today's National Women's History quote is, Don't compromise yourself. You're all you've got. Janice Joplin Bella napping with daddy 3/7/10 My girls
