To Babyland we go!

I am so excited! I am getting my son tomorrow and I am going to see two new babies! Two good friends of mine just had babies two weeks ago. I can't wait to see them. I can't wait to see all the kids actually. Being around the newborns is going to be really hard. I want another baby so badly. It doesn't help that my sister is going and she is dying for me to have another baby too. It will be great to have the hellion back and he will love hanging out with all the other kids. He loves babies too. Should be a great weekend!

The best weekend!

Let me just say I am exhausted! I had the best weekend!! I don't think I have ever packed so much into one 3 day weekend before. So Saturday I took Damian to the Kids Fest thing. It was rather boring and D was whiny. They did have a blow up obstacle course thing that Damian made it half way through before he turned around and came back out.
After that we went home and took naps. My parents went to the Rays game and I almost took D to that but he was not in the best mood so I took him to the mall instead. He played in the kids area for over an hour, rode the carousel and we ate dinner. We still didn't get home till after 9pm. Thankfully he fell asleep in the car.

Sunday I got him up and ready for church then sent him off with my mom. Then I got ready for Rockfest. OMG! It was a freaking blast!!! My brother and I got there around 11am. The first two bands were really good, then we kinda stopped listening for a while. Later that afternoon Surge was on and we started listening again. A few of our friends showed up and we hung out with them. Michelle and I went up to the stage to watch Three Doors Down. We were maybe five rows back by the time we couldn't squeeze through anymore. They were amazing. Then Kid Rock came on and blew everyone away. It was a great day and I had a great time. I got burned bad though. I also forgot to take my camera and I was pissed.

Today D and I went to Busch Gardens for his first time. It was so much fun. We wondered around and looked at all the animals. We played in Jungala and the Land of the Dragons. I realized my baby wasn't a baby anymore. He went on a ton of rides all by himself. He had so much fun. I couldn't believe he went on all the kiddie rides. I got some great pics of him today. We had a blast and didn't get home till late. Poor boy is going to be a mess tomorrow at school, but it was worth it. I think tomorrow is going to suck for both of us, but the weekend was well worth it!

I miss my Hellion

I hate this so much. Now it is worse. Our custody agreement has changed and we each get him for two weeks at a time instead of one. It is hopefully going to be a lot easier on the boy. He will get time to settle into each house and we will get three full days with him instead of one. Plus it will save me 100 bucks in gas. The part that sucks is my ex having him. I hate it so much. He should be here, with me. Not off with his dad doing who knows what. I don't want to take him away from his dad but at times it is really tempting. Ugh, this just sucks!!!

A day at the zoo!

We went to Lowry Park Zoo today! The hellion, Nini, Gigi, Papa and I spent a few hours walking around looking at all the animals. Hellion of course didn't want to walk and didn't want to be in his stroller. So Gigi and Nini spent a lot of time holding him, I refused to. I am such a mean mommy. We saw all the Florida animals. He petted the stingrays and absolutely loved the manatees and turtles and other reptiles/amphibians. He got to feed a giraffe, which was a fun experience for him. He got to see a kangaroo with a baby in her pouch. All you could see were the tail and one of its feet sticking out. Hellion was fascinated and didn't want to leave. He also had his first ice cream cone today. Gigi made the mistake of offering him a bite of hers. Needless to say she never got it back. All in all it was a pretty good day. We got to see lots of animals and got some great pictures.

WTH!

I live in a neighborhood with an association and stupid rules. They are a bunch of small minded idiots with nothing better to do than go around looking for things to complain about. Apparently when they created the list of rules for our neighborhood there were a lot of work trucks here because the neighborhood was still under construction. One of their stupid rules is no trucks parked in the driveway. Ok, fine. What would you like my brother and I to do with our trucks then. We can't stick them in the garage because they don't fit. We can't park them in the street or anywhere else in the neighborhood so what would you like us to do exactly?! Seriously, is this the best thing you could come up with. There are a zillion rules being broken in this neighborhood daily and you are gonna harp on an outdated one. Why don't you spend your spare time finding the hoodlums that wreck peoples mailboxes every week. Or the ones that litter in the ponds. Go find something worthwhile to bitch about and leave us the hell alone! I am gonna start parking at the park in the neighborhood. Don't think we have any rules about that. Meh!
