Top 2 Tuesday...

My friend Amber participates in "Top 2 Tuesday" every week (or almost every week) and I decided to join her this week (hopefully every week!)

This week's topic: Top 2 perfumes/Colugnes...

1! Acqua Di Gio

This is Jordan's colugne, so right now I might just be longing to smell him (it has been at least 4 months), but I have to admit it smells pretty amazing, even if you smell it every day.


2. DKNY's Be Delicious

I LOVE this perfume! It's light and fresh and overall really great. It's my go-to.

Pictures, as promised...

I'm a little late, but better late then never, right??

This weekend I'm working on a surprise for Jordan... stay tuned for pictures!! :)

My big girl...

This post is a little sad for me to write... it seems that Abigail is growing up, and I'm not completely positive I like it. Let me explain (there's two BIG reasons)...

Due to changes in KS laws, Abigail can no longer sleep in a pack-n-play at daycare, even though she's still in a crib at home. Next week she is starting the transition to sleeping on a cot. Friday afternoon I received an email from her babysitter, it went something like this "Once I have Abigail transitioned to the cot our routine will be: lunch, diaper, then (this is the part that got me!) she'll help me make up her bed, she'll nap, and then help me strip the bed so I can wash everything" What?! Is my baby girl really old enough to help (and I know it'll only be help for awhile) make a bed and then un-make it?? I guess so...

Story 2:
This morning I was putting my lunch together and Abigail wanted something to eat (note: she eats breakfast every morning at daycare) so I gave her a piece of banana. Well, because mommy was putting her snacks (aka carrots) in a little ziploc bag, Abigail wanted her banana in one, too. Okay, that's cute, she wants to be like me! (instert really happy smiley face!). Well we're a couple blocks into our drive to daycare and I look back (yes, I'm the bad driver who has her rear-view mirror flipped down so I can see my child in it, instead of the cars behind me), and she has her banana gone. THEN she says "Mama, I want more, please". Again, What?! This was her first, fully, completely understandable scentence. AND, she was polite! I won't lie, I got a little teary-eyed. When we walked in the door at daycare she said, "Hi Mo! Hi Reece!". Okay, my little girl is not only polite, but greeting people? Usually she says "MO!" as she points to him (that's our babysitter's husband, who she loves by-the-way).

So, yeah, since Friday I've come to the realization that my babygirl might not be such a baby anymore... *tear*

(pictures to come ~ I promise! I have a ton)

Friday Night...

The Cardinal's did a tribute to the Missouri National Guard troops that are currently in Afghanistan. They televised the game on the AFN for the guys to watch and had live feed to the stadium of them watching. During the game they interviewed some of the guys and had them introduce players, say hi to their families, etc.

I thought that I was recording the game. Little did I know they blacked it out here becuse the Royals were playing. Anyways, one of my best friends did some searching and found two videos of Jordan and a couple of his unit...

(on the right side of the page you can see other videos... the site is pretty cool. She found a video from 2006 of her brother when he was in Iraq!)

Happy 4th Of July...

Happy Independence Day, everyone!!

I don't have any new pictures (my camera battery has been dead ~ but it's currently charging), so here are some of Abigail from last year on the 4th...

It's amazing how much she's changed!!
