When the wife runs late.....

My DH (dear husband) decided him and I deserved a nice dinner out with out fabulous tax return this year. (I must thank Miss Amelia for this finical gain). I've been bugging him for months to go to Benenhana because I've never been. DH not being one for Sushi, I didn't think he'd like it much but he had been with co-workers before and enjoyed it, so he agreed. He gets off an hour and a half after me and therefore I had time to kill before I met him at dinner. This.....means....shopping...yes. Nana had the baby so I was in the clear. I piled my friend Kyla in the car and we headed to Target. We got out in time and as I was taking her back to her car, DH calls to see where I am.

"I'm dropping Kyla off and will be there in about 10 min."

"Where were you....?"

"Tarrrrget" BUT THE BABY NEEDED DIAPERS (and wipes, and a book, movie, smut (KATIE HOLMES HAS COLAPSED!_) It's an addiction people...

So I meet DH at dinner. As the chef is preforming his magic, Nick yells over everything "SO I FOUND THIS SURROUND SOUND SYSTEM AT BEST BUY WHILE I WAS WAITING FOR YOU"

Yes, it's my fault we are now in the poor house again people....MY fault because IIIIIIII was 10 min. late to dinner. So I said fine, we could go look at it after dinner, thinking we'd be too full to care. We walked out with the damn thing.

So happy early birthday to the husband. With baby at Nana's for the night, we will happily be watching The Mist, in Bluray, with surround sound. Ahh the life.....

The intro to an eventful life....

As promised to my dear sister in law over a year ago, I am now starting my blog. This was intended to be started when I was pregnant with my daughter, who is now nearing 4 months old. So here I am, finally in the blogging world. Once I get my laptop (hint hint) I will update as often as I can. I've been told by people I should write a book about my life, due to the comedic value I guess. This as close as we'll get right now.

The basics: I have a husband, a dog, a cat, a 4 month old daughter, an obsession with the Oregon Ducks, Coach and shopping. I work, own a house, and short of a white picket fence we're pretty darn the "American dream". After I had my baby, my husband felt he needed HIS baby and got himself a BMW. Sore subject....I push out a kid, yet I still am driving a 93 Honda Civic....something is back-ass-wards here people.

We had Easter at my sister in laws today. It was very tasty! A juicy roast, mashed taters (that my nephew kept eying...., and Blueberry cobbler. To die for. And I actually had red wine, and liked it! Some photos of the festivities. We like to get our kids together (40 days apart in birth) and take shameless pictures of them. So here I will shamelessly post...


He looks thrilled....
Mr. Henry

Amelia after too much wine....



So that is all I can think of for now. My sister in law will be so proud! Until the next batch of stories... enjoy! :)
