Birthday Ideas

Check out all the great birthday ideas at Kelly's Korner!. I found her site last year when I was researching sweet girl's first bday. I am going to get some good ideas for her 3rd bday (i know, its 10 mos away). It is Carey's fault I am so into birthday's! I already have monkey's planned for November so now it's time to plan the sweet girl's!!

Night away

This weekend is the state club hockey tourney in Canton. I will be going with coach and we will be leaving the crazy kiddos here! Yahoo! Our wonderful neighbor is coming over at 3 AM tomorrow so we can lv. There is a game tonight that we will miss because coach is playing in his band and the first game tomorrow is at 8 AM in Canton - hence the 3 am departure. I am already exhausted thinking about it! My plan for tomorrow is hockey, massage, nap and more hockey. I am really hoping they don't win all 3 games ( I know, great attitude!) but if they do, they play at 8 am Sunday morning and I want to sleep!!!!! Monkey has been waking up at 5 am everyday for a few weeks now and I am a walking zombie! Aargh. Have a wonderful weekend!

Branching Out

I am trying to prepare/eat some new foods. These aren't anything crazy but if you know me, you know I am wierd about what I eat. I have trouble eating anything that is the name of a body party (with the exception of chicken breast). ie: pork butt. NAST. I also am wierd about eating anything I swim in the same water with. So this limits our meals to beef or chicken. When we were in Florida, I tried my parent's fish and it wasn't too bad. I told Carey that it isn't the taste I don't like, it is just the fact that I am eating a fish. But last night... I actually bought, cooked and ate fish! I picked Fish Tacos because i thought it would disguise the fish the best. I I have never used Old Bay seasoning before (my mom uses it for lobster boils), so I was quite liberal in it's use. HOLY SPICY! Note to self: next time, use it sparingly! Aside from the nose dripping spiciness, it was good. I will be making these again.

Star of the Week!

Monkey is star of the week at school this week! They randomly pick a child each week and I was so hoping he wasn't picked last! Friday, we went to Red Robin (his pick) to celebrate! This morning, he was up at 5:45 am he was so excited. He also brushed his hair one million times and kept asking me how he looked. He even had to take a brush in the car! Adorable!

Etsy

If you know me, you know I love Etsy! I have bought dresses, bows and party decorations just to name a few. I have always had the best luck and everything is adorable!! But I just read this. I had no idea you could do that! I'm defiantly going to try that next time!!

Worth the 6 minutes!

Funny!
