Weekend Wrap Up

So this weekend was not so great... Saturday was my birthday and that was the kick-off of what turned out to be one disaster after another! First of all my husband was so so sick I am talking a deadly cough and don't worry...RING WORM! thats right! It had spread before they figured out what it was! It is all over his legs and torso...it just looks like a crazy rash but it it is highly contagiuos so he was not in good shape! Now it gets worse...he some how managed to get up and play in a golf tournament on the morning of MY BIRTHDAY! I know it lasted until 2! My baby was being super clingy that day(my birthday) so I took her with me to H&M but because my car is lacking in the entertainment department(no radio...broken! and no TV) I asked my mom if we could switch cars so miss P wouldn't scream the whole drive! I then went to H&M where i found nothing for me but spent my birthday money on my BABY! Well then I got a call from my mom an hour later saying my car had broken down and she nearly died while it stalled in the middle of the intersection. She had to abandon it on the corner of Val Vista and Southern! I then drop my phone, cracking the screen nearly in two and decide it is time to just go home and put Peight down for a nap! That night we had dinner and movie plans so I figured it would all be ok if I could just make it to that. Leaving was a nighmare Peight cries and cried as I was leaving "mamamamamamamamamamama" but I left anyway(hey it was my birthday) I figured my mom could handle it! I got to dinner 30 min late and got a call from my mom...she still hadn't stopped crying. I ate dinner and called back when I was done, STILL CRYING! My mom said, "I don't know what to do I think she just needs you!" AHHHH seriously pulling at my heart string because my happy little baby NEVER acts like this! So long story short I went home early and when I got there she didn't care and had stopped crying so i went to bed! There are no pictures of my birthday this year because frankly turning 26 was not so fun! however my birthday passed and my husband fixed my car and I forgave him for golfing and my baby stopped clinging and all was right in the world again on February 13th!
So for Valentines Day we decided to lay low and make it simple dinner in Fountain Hills as a family and then a snuggle fest on the couch! All is now well in the Bennett household. One year older and wiser too!



Although there was all that crazy...I am so grateful for my 2 valentines and all the love and laughter they bring to my life!

A Baby Story

This little bug became a big sister on Sunday! My sister in law Kerri had her second beautiful baby girl during the National Anthem on Superbowl Sunday! I was luck enough to get to see Baby A come into the world! (thank you so much Chris and Kerri!!) It was seriously the most amazing thing I have ever seen! Having a baby of your own and watching someone else have one are two very different things!!! Having one of your own is so much work and energy...watching one born is the most peaceful and spiritual experience I have ever had (like i said not so much for my sis in law i am sure) although she did have that baby out in 3 pushes...AMAZING. I am so jealous and now have really high expectations for baby #2 to just pop right out!(NOT PREGNANT OR EVEN TRYING) just wanted to clear that up so there was no confusion:)haha!
I love being an aunt..so fun!
