Birthday Recap Part 2

I had big plans for Little M's actual birthday yesterday.  We were going to spend the entire day, just the three of us, and I wanted to do something extra special.  And what's more special than a kid's first trip to Chuck E Cheese!?!?  I was psyched and I knew she would have a great time {right Kim!}

We started the morning off with Skip making Little M and I some breakfast in bed.  We ate some waffles and watched a little Elmo.  Then we headed downstairs to open more presents!  Little M absolutely *loved* the play kitchen we bought her!  We finally managed to pull her away, got her dressed, and headed out.  Chuck E Cheese time!

Well about 40 minutes and lots of driving around in circles later, we had to move to Plan B.  Apparently the Chuck E Cheese we had seen this summer, the one I had confirmed was listed on their website that morning, was closed!!! :(  I was so sad.  Thankfully Little M really had no idea what was going on and didn't seem phased by the whole thing.  We headed over to Friendly's instead and had the most wonderful time!  We've avoided restaurants with Little M for the past few months since she's been known to scream and misbehave, but yesterday she was just wonderful!  She gobbled up almost all her mac and cheese and happily ate not only her ice cream, but some of her dad's as well!  

After lunch we surprised Little M with a copy of her favorite movie, Cars,  and headed home for a nap.  Once we woke her up 2 1/2 hours later {being two is hard work!} we had a relaxed dinner of leftovers and some birthday cake!  We finished up the night watching Cars all snuggled up on the couch.  It was a wonderfully special day that Skip and I were so happy to spend with our wonderful little girl!

Spring Giveaway!

First off I want to thank Kim over at Life As I Know I t for becoming my 100 th follower! I love her blog and just know we would hang out all the time if she didn't live across the country. I am completely humbled that 100 people actually want to read what I have to say! Blogging has opened up a whole new world of friendships to me and I would probably not have kept doing it if it was not for all of you! Okay, now it's down to the good stuff. I am *dying* for a little spring around here. We had a few days of warmth and sunshine, but for the past three days it has been raining...again....I heard they have even mobilized our National Guard in case the rivers decide to really get out of hand...you know more than the crazy flooding they've already been doing. Anyways, one of my favorite things to do to get ready for spring is to paint my nails a fun, bright color. So today I am giving away these beauties. One lucky reader will win all four of these fabulous colors! I g...

$50 CSN Giveaway!!

As you all know, I have raved about my love of CSN stores several times before.  They have a huge selection of products and are constantly adding new stores to their website.  My family definitely headed over there to do some of our Christmas shopping, and I was just perusing their selection of flat panel TV stands.      It's one thing, however, for me to tell you how great CSN is.  But it's another for you to experience it yourself.  That is why I am so excited to be sponsoring a $50 gift certificate giveaway to CSN to one of my readers!!!  It's the perfect opportunity to order yourself something you didn't receive for Christmas, or check out their fitness equipment to help with your new year's resolution! Entering is simple...just leave a comment telling me what your new year's resolution is {you can also just say you aren't making any this year if that's the case!}  The giveaway will be open until January 7th 10:00 pm est.
