Becca's First Birthday Extraveganza was January 19th! Complete with good friends, loving family and a Princess Cake!















Did I mention, pink CUPCAKES! How sweet are these!





















Auntie Alicia has a birthday too! I got to help her unwrap her gifts, so FUN!












And we had our holiday bash at Sages! We got to play the COOLEST game called Rock Band! Mom is pretty good at the drums.






Daddy's rockin the gitar!



















Auntie Brie, your so silly!!








And Mommy got a new job that she loves. This is the view from her desk. Her friend Laura is there everyday and they get to chit chat and tell funny stuff to each other. It's so much fun!

10 Random thoughts from yours truly!



1. I love the feeling of my little baby spontaneously fluttering in my tummy. I get so busy in the day that I forget that i'm a new mommy to be. My new little peanut doesn't let me to forget and I love that.



2. I miss my mother in law ALOT! More than I ever thought I would. She really would have loved Becca and visa versa.



3. I finally like my job. I would love to be a mommy full time, but, working at TCA with friends that are like family is the next best thing.



4. After 4 years of living within walking distance of Lourdes Mexican Restaurant, I have finally given the chicken soup my attention and guess what?, it really is the best soup in the world!



5. I hate Clowns!



6. I adore my little sister. She is my more sophisticated side, the person that I would want to be if I wasn't such a jeans and boots kinda gal.

7. Being a Mom is harder than I thought it would be. It's very rewarding and very scary at the same time. I think it must have to do with the amount of LOVE you have for that little human bean. You really would want to give your life for them if you had too.

8. I'm addicted to yummy ripe oranges right now. I could eat them till the citric acid makes my mouth raw.

9. I love the ribbons that Sage gave me for Christmas. I love matching them to my outfits and it's made wearing a pony tail much more fun!

10. I love my pink sands liquid lip gloss from origins. It's the perfect color and it has a minty flavor on your lips.

Where does the time go?

I have not forgotten you blog. I am sorry I have been alouf. Started a new job and got ready for penuts 1st Birthday!!! It was a super weekend, very busy but we had FUN!

Love the new job. I actually look forward to heading out the door to work. What a concept!

Stay Tuned for pictures with narative to see what you have missed in the last 2 weeks. I will post them TONIGHT!!!!

Gotta Run for now. Much LOVE!

My News Years List.

We made it to 2008! I have to say, things are quite different being a parent of a little one. Staying up till midnight just wasn't in the picture. We tired, really we did, but at the stroke of Ten, we were done. Maybe next year will be a little more memorable. Happy New Year to everyone as another one bites the dust.

January one also slapped me in the face with many many things that I need to accomplish in the next 2 weeks. Most importantly, the big First Birthday for Becca. Not that Im going to the extent of a Jumpie or petting zoo, but still, these things take careful planning and thought. She only turns 1 once, and every year thereafter I must try to out do myself from the previous year, so I can't set the bar to high, but it still needs to be special. Oh the agony!!!! What is enough, but not too much? And then the guest list. Who really wants to come? Do my friends that don't have kids want to come? Do my parents friends want to come? These are delicate situations that must be taken seriously as we do not want to offend in any way! Do you understand my delima? It's just a babies Birthday.

Then there is the New Years Resolution. Do I go with somethings obvious and cliche like losing weight or getting organized? I think not. Losing weight is a no brainer, hello! And getting organized is a very lose concept in my house. I know where things are, for the most part, they just aren't always in logical places and I don't see that ever changing as much as I would like it too. So, I think I will make it something fun. I want to get together with friends at least once a month and work on something creative like a scrap project. I have millions of them floating in my head, just never the time to accomplish one. So thats like 12 times a year, should be doable. I'll keep ya posted.

In other news, it's my third to my last full day at my old job. I think my boss is in denial, but I expected that. Next week I will start my new job at Classical Academy. YEAH! I will get to see great people everyday like Laura, Sage and Andee. It will be so refreshing.

So, have a happy Wednesday. Also, my friend Heidi let the cat out of the bag. She is letting everyone at home know about her blog, finally, after a year of posting. Go visit her site and RAZ her a little, she can take it=)
