1.  First off, happy Friday!!  The week is almost over then we have a fabulous weekend together.  When I was working out of the house every day, before I had kids (eek, it’s been 6 years since I quit my last desk job) I looked forward to the weekends because I needed a break from work.  Many of you know that exact feeling.  That doesn’t change when you are a full time mom.  My kind of break is when the kids are in bed and asleep at night… but by then I’m totally exhausted and ready to go to sleep myself.  Now, the weekends are filled with help from my hubby!  So now my “break” is taking a shower by myself!    But we also get to do fun things together instead of our regular routine of waking up grouchy kids for school, homework, workouts, etc.  Summertime is the perfect time of the year for fabulous weekends!  Yay for Summer!

2.  I went to the DMV this morning, dragging my feet all morning at just the thought of being there all day.  To my pleasant surprise, I was in and outta there in about 45 minutes!  Whoa!  And all I ended up needing was a renewal since I hadn’t been out of the state for long.  I never did memorize my CO license number… my CA number has been stuck in my head for so many years and I got it back.  Nice!

3.  Who can resist this giddy little smile?  Last weekend someone *ahem, her brother…* nailed her on the back of the head with a water gun.  Not a smart move.  He busted it open and she had to get two staples to hold it close.  We took her back a couple of days ago to get them removed.  Call me mean, but I made him stay in the room with us while she cried getting them out… I bet he’ll never do that again…

4.  Next week is Ashton’s 1st birthday.  Well, more like 10 days from now.  Um, my last baby is becoming a toddler.  I’m torn on how I feel about this.  Anyways, be on the lookout for a smash-the-cake session with him.  Oooh, so much fun!!

5.  This weekend we are heading to the beach with one of our favorite families to enjoy some cooler temps, good eats and a lot of laughs.  Have a great weekend all!  Love!
