Cynthia's 'Sprinkle' for baby Mya!

Yay...Cynthia and Brandon had their sweet baby girl this morning at 7:53am and weighed in at 7lbs.
Brody is now a Big Brother. Congratulations Hoges!!

Just before Cynthia delivered, we had a little 'sprinkle' for her (that's what you call a shower for the 2nd child- gotta love the new lingo). We met for breakfast at La Madeleine and enjoyed visiting and 'sprinkling' her with baby girl gifts. Here are some pics of our fun morning...

Can't wait to meet their sweet little girl! How Exciting!


love is still in the air....

a little valentine love for mommy and daddy from lauren
wall of love (very bottom right hand corner is lauren's fishy)

daddy & i snuck out of work friday to join her party at school.


Funny story about Saturday night - she and daddy were giving me a valentine card and candy. I was reading her card aloud and asked her, "wow pumpkin, did you write this all by yourself? You did soo good, thank you". She looks and me and nods with this sweet grin on her face…'yeees'. Then she stopped....with a slightly concerned look on her face, " Ac-shually, I didn't mommy……daddy did it". I could not believe that she just used the word ACTUALLY in a sentence AND in the right context. I don't think I learned that word until last year. Kidding, but you know what I mean - I was cracking up.

bring on the beef...

it's time to buy our big boy a tooth brush!! here is a glimpse of his pearly 'white'.

everybody conga...

gotta love the webcams at Lauren and Dylan's school. i can peek in from time to time to see what they are up to. it breaks up the day nicely and allows me 'spend time' with them throughout the day...

lauren's favorite thing to do these days is The Conga (as mentioned in a previous entry)...well, here she is leading the group at school....too cute! (she's in front of the line wearing hot pink- not the one off to the side not following directions...ha!)

Super Bowl Sunday...and Boys Bowl!

my honey's team won the boy's bowl flag football game this year and it's the first year they are sporting a fancy trophy. believe me, they were 'lovin' the trophy...literally! i didn't post the many photos of them kissing it...it was a bit much. i guess they were really excited!
enjoy the pics from the game and after party at the Donato's. such a fun day with friends...i am bummed they only play once a year!
