My mom had some socks downstairs and Memphis thought she would give them a try. Kids are just too funny sometimes! I love it!

Nothing like breaking out old toys. This road was Chase's but a favorite toy among all of us kids. I let Memphis play with it and she loved it. She kept crying when she would break the over pass! She then took it apart and used the ramps as slides.

Tonight Damien pulled this towel from the stove and started rubbing the side of his face with it while I was doing the dishes. I looked down and couldn't help but just laugh. Could my little man be tired??? (since that is what he does with his blankets when you lay him down) He is SO easy to put to bed. Sweet sweet boy. He'll be 1 in a week in a half! Where does the time go???

Today Memphis fell asleep really early so she woke up around 11:30 pm, Walked down the stairs and said "hi" in the cutest voice ever! She has been obsessed with this protein bars in the cupboard and I just keep taking them away, so tonight I finally just opened it up and let her have it. It was making me laugh... so I took a picture. I hope it was everything she dreamed it to be. My little health nut! Ha ha ha!!!

Today we attended the baby blessing of sweet Brooklyn Doney. It was a fun day spent with good friends.

I actually started this salad yesterday... it's a little time consuming. This is one of those things I LOVE TO MAKE!!!! I can't claim it as my own since I got the recipe from my sister. Not only do I love making it, but it just looks cool and tends to always be a great crowd pleaser!

So many have already heard the story... but I was making a jello salad JUST like this(only blue) for my cousin Lauren's graduation party and I went into labor with Memphis. I made it on "bed rest"!!! Shhhh!!!! Anyway, I was sad that I didn't get to go and no one got to eat my salad. :) That being said... that turkey girl who fights me every night on going to bed was totally worth it!

Tonight I had a date with Ruby! Pedicures, shopping and dinner! I love getting pedicures. We came here and I made haystacks. They are like one of my top 5 dinners now. It's so easy and it takes SO GOOD!

So Mike has about 224 boxes full of baseball, basketball and football cards and this week he pulled them out and started sorting through them. Quite honestly I had no idea he had that many!!! I think he counted over 200 Michael Jordan cards alone!!!!! So the 224 boxes might be a bit of an exaggeration but not by much... let me tell you!!! He came across this Derek Jeter rookie card and we laughed and laughed. I took this picture to pass on to my friend Amy... who intends to marry Mr. Jeter. Being the huge Yankee fans that we're NOT... we will be donating this card to Amy!

Ok, so I have an amazing job and super cool boss... who allows my kids to come to work with me. Damien is only there for the first hour, but 36 minuets into my day I find myself watching the clock...impatiently waiting for Mike to arrive.

This feels like déjà vu!

Today's pictures are compliments of Ceciley. The Hallmans watch Memphis during football season while Mike is at practice. They love her and SHE LOVES THEM!!! :) It's nice for me too and I am so grateful for them.

Well, today was the first day of football practice for Mike. It was strange to be home alone with just little D. When my mom got home and I said... wanna go do something? So, we headed out for some cheese fries! Half priced Monday - Thursday! Awesome!!!!! D man like them too. :)
