Happy Valentines Day!

Today Mia was with Daddy and then met me for a little surprise date! Then she was off to Grandma's house for cookie decorating. She fills us and our family with so much love I can't wait till this new little shrimp (that is the size of the baby this week) rocks our world.

I hope that everyone has a great day! I have to say I used to HATE Valentines day cause I was ALWAYS single and there is nothing worse then having a day dedicated to shoving the fact that you are ALONE in your face. I on the other hand love an excuse to celebrate anything. So, I focused my negative energy into all of the kids that I have looked after making Valentines tolerable for me. That was until 2005 when a certain someone left a card (with the most amazing words) teddy bear and flowers on my bed. I was so happy and called everyone I knew telling them my luck had changed, little did I know I would be that lucky for the next 6 years and I have a feeling that luck will keep coming! The G-rents are with Mia tonight and my hubby is taking me out. Have a great day people :)

Last week the bean was the size of a lime so here is Beez kissing her new sibling!
Decorating cookies with Grandma and Grandpa!

BIG NEWS!!!!!!

Mia would like to announce that she is going to be a big sister!!!!!!

We have another small friend coming to live with us around August 20th. We saw the little beans heart beat the other week and its such a magical moment, I am starting to feel a TON better and time is already passing so much more quickly with this baby. Mia knows that there is baby in my belly and not only do I have a baby in my belly but so does Ryan, my parents, animals, friends and herself!

Whidbey Island

Last weekend we went with my family to Whidbey Island. We had a great time and the weather was actually pleasant and sunny for part of the time. Which we need so bad this winter is killing me, I need some sunshine in my life and Beez needs to get out and R-U-N!!!!!! We went for walks on the beach and Mia must have run at least a mile, she loved the fresh air and family time :)

Grandpa Doug Came.......

Last week Grandpa Doug came to visit! Mia just loved having him (she is still asking for "papa gug") It was a short trip but filled with some of Mia's favorite spots, Bell square play area. MOD pizza, kidz bounce, and Grandma and Grandpa's house for some dress up!

She might be the only kid in history to kiss this mask!

One of her new favorite things "diaper hats"

Grandpa Doug even took part in the new fun.

Kidz bounce!!!!!!

Silly Mia......

Mia got a new potty from her Grandpa Doug, BG and Auntie Paige! She has yet to sit on it with out her clothes on but she sits on it anyways! These are a few Christmas pics that I found and made me laugh! Mia is growing up right in front of us and we are having a blast watching the Beez show every night!

Sweeney Family Party

We had the annual Sweeney family Christmas party, I have to say I really look forward to this every year! We are such a big family that its hard to get together all that often with everyone but at Christmas time we all get together. Here is how we get the party started............

My Dad and his brothers. Matt Jeff and Paul.
My Godson Joe! Look how big he is????

Uncle Paul and Heidi

Aunts with my Mom

Uncle Jeff Ryan and Beez (who stayed up so late that night with no problem cause there was so much cousin love to keep her busy)

Grandma Jeanne (Mia's Great Grandma)

The gang minus about 15 more!

Very late Christmas update.......

My friends are fabulous! I have had them since I moved here and I could not be more blessed. And you know I must really love them cause they are about the only people that I would go to snowflake lane for the 5th time in 3 weeks!!!!! We went to dinner and took in the show, Mia of course loved it and so did I.

Only my 3rd time dancing with this young fellow.....

LOVE THEM!!!!
Not sure why this picture is so little but we also went to a cookie party and Mes and I were the only ones who brought babies and they totally acted like a couple of unruly poorly behaved jerks jumping on couches and slapping their legs saying "Ah Shit!" So they are both going to Military school........
