New York Trip

So I am a lot behind on posting but we went to NYC and it was great. We were there for the Sept. 11 anniversary, the U.S. Open, and took in a Broadway show. It was great to be just Anthony and I while the girls stayed with their Mamaw. Thank you Mamaw and Papaw!! Anthony did have two days of work which I managed to shop, finish a book, and just relax.

Weekend

The weekend went by way too fast!! Friday we went to dinner as a family and Anthony and I watched a movie. Saturday we had our monthly game night, which was a murder mystery. It was a lot of Italiano and French fun and, of course, Anthony ended up being the murderer. It was fun dressing up and having kids free night. Here are a couple of pictures ...

BTW..I have not offically put on the blog but we are having a BOY!!! I am so excited and can not believe it. It is kinda of weird since I have only had girls but we are thrilled. Still feeling great but feel like I am packing on the weight. =( Oh well, I will worry about that later. Now I have to get started on the nursery. I will take any suggestions. I am also giving the girls room a makeover, since they will be sharing a room. I was happy to find fantastic deals on my mattresses for the room this weekend too! So now to finish painting and making their head-boards. I will post pictures as soon as it is done.

Last night some girlfriends and I got together as a belated birthday celebration. Nothing better than shopping and eating with the girls. It was so much fun! Thanks to Anthony who put homemade birthday cards and a balloon on my car while I was shopping with the girlfriends. I also came home to a clean house, bathed children, and he went grocery shopping and stocked the fridge for me. I feel so blessed with that man! =)

I also found some fabulous deals and was able to buy the girls wardrobe for next summer for dirt cheap. I love finding great deals! I guess you can say that I did a lot of shopping this weekend...one of my favorite things to do. =)

Home

There is no place like home and I am so glad to be in my own bed! I have actually been sleeping at night, better than the hotel, and not so creeped out but up to my eyeballs in laundry. =) Even though the hotel had all of our clothes laundered and they were clean when I brough them home I still felt the need to bleach, wash, and have the rest dry cleaned.

Here is a picture of the girls with their new gifts from the hotel manager...

Anthony of course spent the weekend mowing, taking care of ant hills, and weeds that have taken over our yard since we were gone so long. Now things are slowly getting back to normal but just for short amount of time because we are heading to NY soon. Which I am looking forward too but you better believe I will check my hotle room from top to bottom.
