My Birthday Weekend...

Raegan started out my birthday weekend with a new smile! She opens her mouth as wide as she can like she is laughing hysterically, but without sound. You can't help but squeeze those cheeks. She also discovered that she had musical talent. She plays on her toy xylophones like an old pro!!!
She enjoyed the swim toys even without getting in the water!
Our sweet neighbors gave the girls this little froggy pool. Kylee thought it was pretty cool until she realized we were outside and there were bugs. A fly landed in the water and ended our backyard fun! Stupid fly!!!
The Saturday before my B-day, we were invited to the Memorial Hermann Gala at the Hilton downtown. It was so fun to get dressed up in formal wear and have a night out! It was way overdue. Cocktails started at 7:00 (we had diet coke), a fantastic 5 course dinner was served at 8:00. It ended with live entertainment and dancing. It was unbelievable! I felt like pretty woman (except for the prostitute part). We hope we left a good impression on the "important people" so maybe we will be invited again next year.
During dinner there were contourshionists hanging in these white sheets doing unreal stunts! Pretty cool I must say!!! Look how handsome my man looks in a tux.
By the way, Houston is not the best place to try to find a modest formal dress. Thank goodness for the internet and shalls that are multi-functional. Lets just say that I would not have been able to go through airport security with all the safety-pins I was wearing! Thanks Jenny!

Time to Get Ready, so Suck it Up...

HERE COME THE TOES
HERE COMES THE BRIDE

HERE COME THE "SHORT" GIRLS
HERE COME THE SMILES

HERE COMES THE THROW UP!

THE DETAILS

The night before the rehearsal dinner both of my girls started throwing up. I was covered from head to toe so I jumped in the shower at 4:00 am while my mom helped with the girls. I then started to feel nauseated. I thought it was all in my head, but then I threw up with I got out of the shower. I slept for a few hours then it was off to our nail appointment. I tried to "suck it up" but I had to run to the bathroom for a few close calls. We made it through the nails but mom gave me some yummy narcotics and the rest is a blur. All I remember is that the groom had it worse than I did. I was able to eat at the rehearsal dinner, thanks to the meds, but he had to have soup. To make things worse, my mom got the flu that night and was in the E.R the morning of the wedding. She sat in a chair the whole night. Mostly alone because everyone was was trying to avoid "the plague". I felt so sorry for our poor mommy, but she still managed to look beautiful! Thank goodness the groom felt better and the bride remained in good health.
CONGRATULATIONS TO JOSH AND ADRI BERGK!!!

MORE FUN PICTURES OF THE GIRLS!

She will not allow her swing to swing. She grabs on to the bar the whole time, she just loves to chill!
Wiped out after a good attempt to crawl. So tired!
The girls are into wrestling! Guess who won?
RRRRRRRRRRRRRRR matey! Me a pirate!
First teething biscuit, not quite sure of this. Strange because she eats everything off the floor and it does not seem to bother her. Silly baby!
The morning after the party! We had left over cupcakes and ice cream for breakfast! Yes, that is what is on her face and a party hat on her head.
Reaggy pooh was feeling left out! She has found her tongue this month, she loves to stick it out at me already. Where did I go wrong?
Jammin to her sisters new Dora headset! She sits and dances to the music. It's hilarious!
They already fight over toys. The bloody battles have begun!
The little turkey has discovered body coloring. She told me that she got a big ouchy on her leg so she needed a big bandaid. The purple markings represent the big ouchy!
She did not get the big bandaid she wanted, she did however get a purple bath and a little time out!
