Lovin' Friday

Today was a great day! This morning the gym, then Marshall's. I have a love/hate relationship with Marshall's but made it quick and I did get a few cute things. :) Then the office cuz I haven't worked all week, been studying for my exam, then time to get my kids. I LOVE picking up my kids (especially when they sit in the back and are mean to each other the whole way home) today wasn't like that though. Sierra waved at me when she saw me and they were so lovely. When we got home Ashton got in trouble cause he ate a granola bar (we save those for school, I know, I'm so mean!) He wasn't going to be able to have icecream. He asked me what he could do to earn it. His room was a dis.as.ter! If he cleaned his room and put everthing where it was supposed to go he could have icecream after lunch. After fixing them lunch I was cleaning bathrooms and Sierra came and asked if she could help. Whaaa! Of course, I would love that! She cleaned her whole bathroom! I just had to go over a couple of things! Beautiful and sparkly and even better, she cleaned it. While we were cleaning the bathrooms Ashton was busy cleaning his room, it was beautiful! We were all working and working together! Then when I was done mopping the floors of the bathrooms I walked out to the kitchen and my kids had made me lunch! I kinda knew it was coming cause they would come back to the bathroom and ask "mom, just wondering, what do you like on your burrito? Just wondering?" They made a huge delicious burrito with everything I like, some chips and salsa and a big glass of water! We sat and watched Good Luck Charlie. I have great kids!
When daddy came home we used our free queso and chips coupon at Chili's for dinner. Love family time!

Another dessert for the birthday boy!


When we got home we got out his baby book and looked at all his ultrasound pictures and birth pictures. At 8:59, I grabbed him and hugged him and held him and said "Happy Birthday!" Daddy came and took him away from me and was hugging him too and said "Happy Birthday!" and he said, "why did you take me away from my mommy!" Daddy said, "because your mine too!" :)
Happy Birthday my little man! Here's to many more! and REMEMBER...Mommy loves you!
