My buddy

Just love this kid... she's always making me laugh! I can't believe baby #2 will be here 6 weeks from today! I hope I like her as much as Sophie!

Bravest girl at the park

I had to show you guys just how fearless my kid is. She just climbs right up there and then I have to go up there big ol belly and all to get her down so she doesn't just let go. She's crazy!!

Weekend in Chicago

Mike and I had such a great weekend away in Chicago, thanks to THG. He had a black tie gala he was invited to so we stayed a couple extra nights and got to see the town. We felt a little out of our league at the event but had fun with our tablemates and ate super good food. The next morning there was a brunch on the 95th floor of the Hancock building which was amazing... there's a peek down. We spent the rest of the time walking and eating, going to movies and then seeing Wicked. It was so fun and that was such a great show, so entertaining. I thought it was interesting how gorgeous everyone in Chicago is, so done up and wearing the cutest clothes... I couldn't have felt frumpier so I just ate more. Garretts popcorn from there is heaven on earth if you ever go.

Happy Birthday Sophie!

Sophie had so much fun opening her presents and was so cute with her excited reactions to all her fun new toys. As you can see the birthday song and all the attention got a little stressful for her. While we were all singing she just burst into tears... she did the same thing at her friend party too, then just started yelling after she blew out the candle. I guess she just had too many emotions and didn't know what to do with them.

Magazine junkie

Funny story... I love magazines and they pile up a bit, so the other day I was cleaning out and Sophs was helping. I was sorting into piles and she was flipping through some, then she starts laughing and saying 'beep beep' over and over and I look over and she's looking at a Victoria Secret catalog pointing to all the exposed belly buttons! Shes so cute and fun, I love my little buddy!
