So i signed up on Twitter

I have no clue what i'm doing on it! I update my status every now and again....that's about it. I don't "get" it. I don't get what the point is except to see what everyone is doing at whatever point in time. I'm gonna do some playing around with it and see if i can figure it out. If anyone has a Twitter account i guess give me the address so i can stalk, um, i mean follow you!!

Fun in Chicago

Saturday night was my friend Jenna's Bachelorette party. We left Saturday morning at 10am and made the 4 hour drive up there. We stopped at the Northbrook Mall to do some shopping and so Jenna could get her make-up done. Then checked into the hotel and started getting ready. After that we went to her friend Gina's house for a pre-party of food and drinks. She also opened a few gifts of lingerie.

Yes that is a penis straw in my beer, lol!

Penis cookies!

Then a limo came and picked us all up and off we went!

Inside the limo


Getting crazy!


We drove around and enjoyed free drinks in the limo and came to our first stop, Baton Lounge, a drag show. It was hilarious! Those guys(?) were pretty and had better boobs than me! lol No cameras were allowed but i did manage to sneak one picture-hehe.


After that we loaded back into the limo and headed to Enclave, a club in downtown Chicago. We were only there for maybe 10 minutes because it was so packed in there, literally shoulder to shoulder!


So we loaded back into the limo and were contemplating going to another club but by the time we would have gotten somewhere it would have been time to leave anyways so we went back to the hotel. It was a lot of fun and i'm so glad i went! I was really debating going or not since Brody is so young. It was a great trip and a nice getaway!

What a Day

This morning i had to take both boys to the doctor. Carter had his 3 year check-up and Brody's 2 month check-up and shots. I had my mom go with me and thank God i did because wow it was definitely hectic! First of all, i wanted to talk to the doctor about the vaccinations because i have been feeling really uneasy about giving all of them at one time to Brody. So the nurse gave me some info sheets to look at and the pediatrician took her time coming in the room. By the time she came in, Carter had had enough! He was just so bored and tired of waiting. He could not sit still and kept turning the light on and off, trying to open the door and escape, dumping crayons on the floor, etc. Finally, the ped. came in. When she came in, Carter was in time out because he hit Brody on the head. He was screaming at the top of his lungs! After his time out, my mom took him back out to the kids waiting room while the ped. looked over Brody and answered my questions. Then while the nurse came back in to give Brody his shots, she went in another room with my mom and Carter to give him his physical. He had pinched his hand on the flusher in the bathroom right before the physical and screamed the entire time. Brody was also crying because he just got his shots. Ugh..what a morning. I'm just so glad i scheduled early in the morning and got it over with. In all the madness and insanity, i forgot to write down the boys' stats. I remember that Brody is 12ish lbs and 23 1/4 in. Carter is 35 lbs and i think she said 34 or 36 in. Bad mommy i know! Anyways, i'm just glad it is all over! I'm definitely getting a sitter for Carter when i have to take Brody for his 4 month check-up!

Do You Think They Look Alike?

I seem to be having a lot of people tell me that Brody looks just like Carter. I honestly don't see it at all. I feel like if i hadn't seen him come out of me and watch them put on the ID bracelets on him in the delivery room (and the fact that he was the only baby in the nursery the whole time we were there) that he was not my baby! So i'll put a couple of pics up here of both boys and see if anyone sees any similarities.

Brody 7 weeks old:
Carter had TONS of hair when he was born and Brody doesn't have much at all. Carter's eyes were darker and Brody's are still bright blue. I'm not sure if his will change to brown or not.

Happy 3rd Birthday Carter!

My oldest little boy is 3 years old today. I'm sick so we're not doing much. We took him to Wal-Mart and had him pick out a few toys and now Brad is taking him out to lunch and then to the park while i am home resting with Brody. We had his birthday party yesterday and bad mommy didn't get any pictures! We had it at Happy Joe's and we had a great turn out and he got tons of presents! It was a great day.
