All Right, All Right.

Sorry for lagging. Spring seems to be the craziest time of year for me. Always has been. Even before I had babies. Emma's Swim season has started up, softball is getting very intense and with some recent rain-outs, make-up games are filling up our nights off. This week, Emma has swim every day at 5:15 and softball every day at 6. Somehow, I've got to fit dinners into that schedule... Then dentist appointments, some volunteer commitments at the school, a homework project for Ava, Emma has a Bday party to go to, the March for Babies on Sat, as well as Beto's birthday and Mother's Day. And I have to work a couple of days...it is like this every week during the spring. And to top it off, it is San Diego beautiful outside, so I have to resist the urge to ditch my laundry to head outdoors.

Anyhoo, I don't have much to rant or rave about. Last week we took all 3 of the kids for haircuts. Emma just got a quick trim because she is "too old for Snipits to style her hair" I can't believe how long we let Vinny's hair grow!

Yes, he is as mischievous as he looks!! But don't you just want to squish him?

She got glitter, gems and a ribbon. She loved it but I thought it bordered on dog grooming...shhh.


This past weekend, Emma and I went on an awesome adventure with her GS Troop to Great Wolf Lodge. We had so much fun. I even put on my bathing suit AND went on the slides! I may not be the skinny mini of my aspirations but I felt better AND seeing some of those milfs in their bathing suits was an excellent motivator!
Other updates:
1) We took Vinny to speech therapy for an eval and her assessment was exactly the same as the EIC eval: he has a slight expressive language delay but tests at or above age level for all other developmental milestones and no signs of autism (there was no doubt, but they eval for that anyway). After talking to lots of other moms of boys who talked late and have no problems now, we decided to hold off on the therapy for a little while. He is only 22 months and he has been slowly adding more words. He'll get there :)
2) The diet is trucking along. No great losses to write about but no gains, either :) I'm totally back on the wagon.
3) My newest obsession is Twitter. See, I just checked my Twitter account and Maria Shriver and Miley Cyrus (Emma begged me to add her :) want to follow me. Isn't that cute? Me and Mrs. Terminator are tight :)) Get on and play with me. And if you still aren't on Facebook, come on now. Even the White House has a facebook page!
4) If you have any spare change or if you are free on Sat, I am Marching for Babies at Auditorium Shores. Please, please, please donate a few dollars or come out and walk.

TTFN :)
