Weekend of celebrations

What a wonderful weekend I had! Saturday we celebrated my favorite nephew's 3rd birthday!! He had a pirate birthday with one of the most extravagant cakes I've seen and a really cool pirate balloon bouquet! Happy birthday little man!!

I also hosted a baby shower for one of my bestest friends in the whole world! It was so much fun planning and seeing it all come together! All the guests had a great time and everyone said it was a great party! She got some awesome gifts for her new baby boy. I am so excited, and I can't wait to meet him and hold him!!! Come on April 17th!!!

Today was the perfect ending to a busy but fun weekend...today was my baby brothers 16th birthday!!! I can't believe he is 16 already, it makes me feel so old! We started the day off bowling, then went to my parents house for some games and rest/relaxation. I went and bought the cake and then helped my mom make dinner. We had a wonderful dinner followed by cake and presents. Since my birthday is in Wednesday, we also celebrated my birthday! We both got spoiled with gifts!! I love my family so much, I couldn't imagine my life without them.

How was your weekend?

I hope you all have a wonderful week ahead of you.....CHEERS!

Leap Day

Happy Leap Year Day! Today is a day like no other. Not only does it come around once every four years, but I now have two friends who's sons were born on this day.

Four years ago, one of my best friends gave birth to a beautiful baby boy. Weighing in at a chart topping 10lbs 10oz, baby Carson made his grand debut! Four years later, I am so happy that he and M&M's are such close pals! In fact, my beautiful friend is currently pregnant with another baby boy due in April, so he and Almond Joy will be close in age and they can be friends too! Happy Birthday Carson!

Joining the world today, baby Jack made his big debut weighing in at 9lbs 8oz. I am so proud of his mommy and so excited for his parents to experience all the joys, trials, and tribulations of parenthood! They will be wonderful parents and Jack is one lucky little boy! Welcome baby Jack and Happy Birthday!

Although I had a very rough and trying day at work on this extra day of the year, I am so happy that this is how I get to end it...babies make me smile!!

Did your extra day make you smile? Happy Leap Day, see you again in 4 years!
