Best Park Playmate! Poppa!

Just BBQ-ing au natural!

last week

So, just started to get back on my feet - in time to do another wedding tomorrow! Last Friday I took Max to Fairy Tale Town and he Loved it! it's so fun taking him on outings like that - to see his elation and discovery of new things - he's definitely my little buddy! James had a blast with him in the ball pit, too! and it fits great in our formal living room! He's such a good Dad - even though he's only had 1 day off in 40 days (can you believe that?!?, he always makes time to play with Max when he gets home no matter how tired he isyeah, i'm cute!

Say cheese!!!

Boy time

sick...again

yep. that's right. On Friday I had the worst allergy day ever, ending up throwing out my back from sneezing and coughing, couldn't move the next day, had a fever and got a sinus infection - oh, and I had to makeup for an out of town wedding that same day. Then of course Max wakes up on Sunday with a 103 fever! Of course he got it from me! Perfect! and being pregnant makes it way easier to deal with, too...ugh. i'll be back in commisssion soon.

zoo

giant ant eater!




my little monkey!
My hard-working Hubby!
Yeah! I love the zoo! Max has been so under the weather, we thought that it'd be good for him to just get out!!! and, how sweet are my folks - it's their 15 year wedding anniversary (amazing!) and instead of going out, they wanted to take Max to the zoo - for their anniversary! Incredible Grandparents!!! and I talked Auntie Carey into coming (she'll love the snake mask picture I put up of her!), she's always game! I was just thrilled to get out of the house! This is the first weekend since February that I haven't had a wedding or a consultation! and tomorrow will be James' first day off in 22 days!!! and his last until May! Poor Guy! I'm SO proud of him and grateful for all his hard work!

Before and Afters!

These are some fun snapshots of what a difference a little paint makes! this was a sweet little wedding I did last weekend, the bride looked like a Princess! She's a little 4'11 Romanian gal and she looked like Audrey Hepburn from Roman Holiday!

sunny days!

yes, he's in the trunk; he was on sale!
that face says it all - my sickie buddy!

Max loves his Mimi!
kicking it with Auntie Kathy!
Today was Gorgeous! and we had to get out in it! Max has been cooped up inside, since he'd been having severe asthma attacks and had to go on a little breathing treatment and steroids! yuck! and he's been puking and having horrible diarrhea this week....poor baby, when he gets hit, he gets hit hard. So, needless to say, between that, being sick myself, pregnant and trying to get settled in - the 10 consultations a week I've been averaging have been wiping me out!!!! But today my mom and my Auntie Kathy came to the rescue and we got lots done in the house and went shopping for the fun stuff at Target and even got California Yogurt and watched August Rush! what a good day!!!

Update

Had my first Dr.'s appointment this week and it went great! I had an ultrasound and James got to be there - amazing how it just pops up on the screen and there's this tiny perfect little baby wiggling around in there (well, mine are always wiggling - hmmm....is it me?)! And, yes, there's only one - although, I'll have to answer the twins question frequently because of my petite size...fun. But I'm actually 11 weeks and due Oct. 28th! So, I'm thinking I'll have to cancel the wedding I was scheduled to do on the 25th...yeah - probably a little much. I can't believe I'll be in my second trimester already! Yahoo!

Baby Bump???

Good gracious! I've heard the second time around it happens faster, but are you kidding me?!!? I'm hoping there's a couple of them in there just to make sense of this, but, i'm afraid not. It happened almost as simultaneous as taking the test, watching the "pregnant" sign appear as the button popped off my jeans!!!! Seriously crazy!!! at least we bypassed the whole ""in-between" stage, where you don't look pregnant you just look thick! Bring on the Belly!!!!
