Great weekend

Hi! What an awesome weekend :) The weather was BEAUTIFUL, summer is so close I can taste it! Friday I babysat a friend's daughter and we played all day. Friday night we painted our toe nails (he saw me and insisted...I obliged) Saturday we went to the park, then headed down to Arvada to stay the night at Jeff's. Today, we went shopping for new shoes/sandals for P, he had some friends over, and I cleaned... currently his friend Bella and him are running around/dancing to Pandora. This nice weather makes me sooo happy. SO FREAKING HAPPY. I...

Through new eyes...

I want to bottle up those moments. The ones where my boy is so loving and happy. Those moments that bring a look to his face that makes me freeze, those moments that I stop and truly see what he sees, something so little, so obvious but something so new and exciting to him. through new eyes...

Choices.

I just want to put this out there- If you don't like what I post here, if it is hurtful or upsetting, if it makes you unhappy or you don't agree with things, nobody is forcing you to keep coming back (again and again and again). This is MY blog. MY life. If you don't like it, I'm not sorry- OH WELL. All I'm saying is this- I don't post particular things for any other reason besides it's MY life, and this is where it's documented. If it's not something that makes you happy, then make the choice...

CocoPPa- An AWESOME iPhone app!

I wanted to tell you all about an app I found via Pinterest that is SO amazing I think everyone should know about it! First of all, the app is used to "replace" icons on your homescreen, with more unique, cooler ones :) I will try and explain how to use it in this post. There are other things you can do that I'm not going to go over here, but if you have any questions feel free to leave a comment and i'll try and help!

Denver Zoo

We took Porter to visit the Denver Zoo for the first time ever yesterday. I haven't even been there in almost 5 years! There are so many new things! We packed a lunch and ate in the sunshine, saw tons of animals, and rode the carousel and the train. It was an amazing, beautiful day :) This is what a two year old looks like after 5 hours of sunshine and animals :) Exhausted!
