Ohio, here we come!

I am counting down the days until I get to go see my BFF and her girls! I hope Eden does well on the plane and I hope Craig can survive without me!

Lucy and Eden are only 4 months apart so I just know they are going to have a ton of fun together! Nola is one week old now and I can't wait to get my baby fix. Only 14 more days!

Happy Anniversary!

Needless to say, the month of February is pretty busy for us! To celebrate my birthday/our 2nd anniversary, Craig took me out on an all day date! It was so much fun being able to spend an entire day with just us. We sure did miss Eden though! I think we talked about her almost the entire time! First, I woke up to a delicious breakfast and we all sat down and had breakfast together. Then, Craig took Eden to his parents house while I got ready for the day. I had no idea what we were going to be doing!

To start, we went to the bowling alley and bowled 4 games together. I suck so bad! Craig on the other hand is a pretty decent bowler! He just laughed at me the entire time. It was fun. After we bowled, we went and walked around the San Tan Mall and bought a few things for Eden (of course). Then, we went to Home Depot to get a few things for our house and for my new curtains that Tairi made for me! Don't they look good?! (we still need to hem the bottoms)

After we shopped for a while, we went to our all time favorite restaurant, Carrabbas, and had a quiet dinner together. We intended on seeing a movie afterwards but we went to WalMart instead and picked up a few things for Eden's party. Hopefully we'll finish off our date sometime this week and see the movie we were meaning to see that night.

I can't believe I've been married to my best friend for 2 years! He is such an awesome husband and most of all, the sweetest, most loving Dad. He does so much to support our little family and works so hard to make ends meet. I love him so much! He is such a great example to me and is such a great Dad to Eden. Every night we lay in bed together and talk about how lucky we are to have such a beautiful little daughter and such a happy family! 2 years down, only eternity to go! I can not wait! I love you, Craig!

Birthday Bash

Eden turned ONE on Sunday! She was a total princess all day and acted like she knew it was her birthday. We brought her in bed with us in the morning and Craig and I sang her happy birthday and gave her a million hugs and kisses. Then, we started making cakes and cleaning the house for our families to come over and have cake and ice cream with us. I think Eden's favorite part was having all of her uncles with her at the same time! She loves them!

Eden has such a dainty little personality. She always picks things up one at a time with her little fingers and is always so careful. I made her a giant cupcake thinking that she would just pick at the frosting. She started off slowly and started picking at the sprinkles, then next thing I know she is devouring the entire thing. She inhaled so much cake, I was positive she was going to get sick from all that sugar. Luckily she didn't! She was so cute and loved having all the attention on her... not a big surprise.
