Break out the vitamin C...

Our house seems to have come down with the flu very suddenly and I really really hope we didn't give it to anyone else. Ben visited 2 flu states in the past week and apparently he carried it home. So far Aidan is fine and I really hope she stays that way.

I take it all back

Just when I was ready to break up with the internet it saves my life! I am a habitual cell phone loser. I always leave it in the car or get it stuck in the couch cushions, or absentmindedly put it in the fridge. Yes I have done that. This is doubly bad because we don't have a house phone so I can never find it if Ben's not there.

Last night I had looked for my phone for close to an hour. I was so frustrated! I can't even set my alarm without my cell phone. Then I did a desperate Google search and found a site called phonemyphone.com. This is the greatest thing that has ever been invented. You put in your number and it will call your phone for you! You can give it a specific time to call or just say ASAP, you can even tell it how many times to call your phone. Within 60 seconds my phone was ringing and I found the phone under Aidan's crib (Aidan also likes to steal and hide my phone).

Hopefully it didn't charge me $15 or something, but in this case it was worth it.

Sometimes she just eats it.

The thing about the internet is....

Sometimes it's a big ole pile of crazy and sometimes you need to step back from that crazy and remind yourself that not everyone's as crazy as they seem online. So with that extremely cryptic nugget I guess I'll get back to blogging.  Hello friend, I've missed you.

Well let's recap the last 2 months. Okay not really. But I did want to mention that Aidan got a Teddy Ruxpin for Christmas. Oh yeah, the Ruxpin is back!!! (By the way I just Googled Teddy Ruxpin to double check how to spell it and I ran across a few fan sites that would make your lose your mind, this is not helping me get over my fear of the crazy).

Anyways Aidan has fulfilled her father's childhood dreams (apparently I was spoiled rotten) and received a Teddy Ruxpin of her very own.  My cousin Sarah and my Nana were so sweet and wanted her to have one because they remembered how much I loved mine. 

Guys, I don't want to alarm you or anything but this bear is speaking to me.

Guys?

Once Aidan warmed to old Teddy she started copying his facial expressions. This is her trying to blink like Teddy Ruxpin. 

One thing I've noticed about the new Teddy Ruxpin is that it's a bit smaller than my old one. I guess when you don't have to have a VHS tape shoved in your nether regions you can build a smaller bear. Hey technology is great!

I don't know why I haven't been blogging lately, I need to get back in the swing of things. This was the 4th picture in my 4th folder. Obviously this is my quinceañera. Oh it's our wedding day. I am very proud to say that we were Mandy's first wedding to shoot. This one is funny because we are both making weird faces.


This is my actual favorite of that pose.

Ben looks like he has x-ray vision.
