ZZZZzzz....

I hope everyone had a wonderful Memorial Day weekend!  Clearly this guy did!  I can't help but laugh every time I see this picture.
A nap is seriously calling my name right now.  Probably isn't helping that I am listening to Cheeks snore while I am paying bills. 

I went to the doctor today and I am 33 weeks along and everything is going well!  I can not wait to have this little one out of my belly and in my arms.  I am a very impatient person.  We still have a lot to get ready before the little peanut gets here.  I need to buy him a coming home outfit as well as a few new onesies.  These are so impractical in AZ in the summer but how cute are these! 

So heart burn has been coming at me like crazy.  If you know of any good cures please let me know!  Right now I am living off Sprite and Ginger Ale. 

Last Thursday we went down to Sierra Vista for a high school graduation.  Doesn't Cheeks look just like my husband and his father?
The weather in SV wasn't cooler than in Tempe so I was a little sad.  We had a nice time though because we got to see Sean's family and also a friend of his.  I was excited because not many people know but about 20 minutes outside of Sierra Vista there are some wine vineyards and Sean bottle me a bottle of bubbly for after I have this baby! http://www.sonoitavineyards.com/  If you ever are in Southern Arizona you should check it out.  It's no Napa but I thought the wine was pretty good!
My little man growing up so fast!  On Saturday he went to his second big birthday party.  It was at a place called Pump It Up.  Basically its like a big indoor warehouse with a bunch of different inflatables.  As an adult I thought eh of the place the kids however loved it!  Last time Luke was in a bouncy he refused to stand and clung on to Sean for dear life.  This time he jumped a little.  He was still scared but had fun.  On Sunday we went over and joined some friends at the Camelback Inn.  They have a beautiful pool and ever a splash pad for kids!  Thank god for the splash pad because some kid did a #2 in the pool so we couldn't swim while I was there.  The weather was amazing so I didn't mind just sitting in the shade drinking ice cold water with lemon. 

Well I better get back to paying my bills before Cheeks wakes up!

Broiled burger

Is what I am currently trying to make.  I am normally a grilled burger gal but since my husband is working I thought I'd broil (because I have no idea how to use the grill).  We'll see how they pan out. 

I am 32 weeks preggo today.  This pregnancy has flown by!  I have so much to do before this baby boy comes.  We still need to pick a name.  So far Jake is the only name that we can both agree on.  I still need to pull out all of Cheeks old clothes and wash them and get them ready.  I also need to buy more clothes considering Cheeks was born in January and this one will be born in July and if you have ever been to Arizona in the summer you know that as little clothing as possible is best!

Sorry this is such a lame post but I can't get pictures or anything to work right now.

San Diego

Here are the pictures I never posted from our trip!  Ahh...I want to go back.  I love it there!













Forever and a day

I know it's been forever since I last posted.  Life's been a little crazy.  I am now a stay at home mom so I hope I will be able to post a little more once I get a bit more organized.  It's crazy how fast the day goes by now that I am home all the time. 

I have been cooking like crazy since I have been home.  Def not a good way to keep off too many lbs.  I made these turkey burgers last week.  They were amazing!  Shine from Yahoo has some pretty good recipes I want to get into a little more.  Sewing is going to be the next thing I really want to get into.  I have so many cool ideas and I just need to do them!

Cheeks is growing like a weed...a not very tall weed :)  We are actually going to the ear, nose and throat doctor today because he has been having a lot of ear infections since he began teething when he was 6 months old.  Normal antibiotics aren't really helping to get rid of the infection either so poor baby has been in pain for a while.  The doctor was shocked at what a tough kid he is.  :(  SO sad!  I feel awful because we can't really do anything except for what the doctor tells us.  Have you had to deal with this?  Did your kid get tubes?  Let me know because I am a little nervous if he has to get tubes.

I actually mean it now when I say you will be hearing from me more often!
