The Big 3-5

Good Lawd, how in the h*ll can I be 35????? There are days I feel it then there are days I feel 22. Guess kids may have something to do with that. :o). I had a great birthday and owe it all to my friends and family. Wednesday the 13th a few of us girls went out for a few hours and laughed so hard we cried. Nights like these are priceless and extremely necessary.
We went to one of my favorite old college hangouts and it hasn't changed a bit! The Lone Star Oyster Bar baby!





My Lou



Deb and Ralna. Katy was there to but left before we started taking pictures.



The darling scarf Ralna gave me!




Such a fun night girls. I'm beyond thankful for our friendship.

My 'brownie-point-making' husband got me my first pair of Kendra Scott earrings and I'm in love!!!




My sweet Cam colored this for me.





I woke up to the greatest thing ever! My friend Katie Marshall so came and did this at some point in the night thursday and it made me feel so special!!!!




Last night my folks came to town and took us to dinner. We tried Longhorn Steakhouse for the first time and it was delicious!



What an amazing day. I'm blessed beyond measure. Let's do this 35!!!!

Cheers,
Lindley

Ruidoso

I won't lie... I had pretty low expectations for this 'vacation' seeing how it was our first 'family of four' overnight outing other than to the grandparents' house, but it by far exceeded them and then some!!!!! We had an absolute blast!!! We did have one minor hiccup though. Cam decided to get car sick on the way up the mountain about 40 minutes outside of Ruidoso so that was fun. And disgusting. And horrifying. I despise throw up as does my daughter so we could have lived without that but we survived. One wipey, or a thousand, at a time.

We loaded up our entire house and headed to Innsbrook Village CC and resort. Wow, that place may be old but it's so peaceful and beautiful. We had the perfect little 3/2 condo.

















In the most perfect location right on the 9th tee box









Golfers right off our back porch all day long. It was so fun to watch them



With perfect company








And Slumber Parties with Mamy




And a very hungry baby





if you don't give it to her fast enough she gets that thumb to tide her over.






Cam met a friend from Lubbock. Alli. She's six. They had a big time.





Such a fun weekend with Mamy and Slick

Someone's 4 months old!!!

Here's Cam at four months.







Her favorite thing to do! She loves her mat!!!






At the doctor for her 4 mo appt. She weighs15 lbs 12.5 oz. & is 25.25 inches long. She's in the 84% for weight & 91% for length.








Doc says she looks GREAT and is perfect! She was spitting up really really bad (it's the craziest thing bc it's like the spitting up doesn't even phase her! She will projectile everywhere then just smile so big. It's nuts I tell you!!!) so we went to the doc when she was 2.5 mo old and they upped her Zantac dose and had us put rice cereal in her bottles to 'weigh' the milk down in her tummy and the two combined have worked miracles!!!!! We started with a teaspoon of cereal per 2 oz of formula and are now at a tbsp per 2 oz of formula. She's 4 mo old and now getting 2 ml of Zantac in the am and PM. She's such a happy baby and love watching her grow. She completes out family and we couldn't imagine life without her. We love you Tess Leanne










At school on their afternoon buggy ride. She loves it!!!

















Ready for food!!! We eat baby food everyday at lunch and again, she loves it!! There's not much this baby doesn't love!! She eats a 6 oz bottle every three hour and sleeps
12 hours at night.







Our happy little girl!!

Brian's new toy

So my husband decided to buy this over the weekend. For football tailgating and weekend errand running with his 'bear' aka as Cameron. :). The top comes off. I do think it will be a lot of fun, Cam's never been in a convertible before. It's in really good condition for a 1986 K5 Chevy Blazer. It's being shipped from Arlington so we should have by the end of the week. Brian has been looking for one of these since Tess was born so to say he's a smidge giddy over this would be an understatement. Red and black even, for his red raiders.






The previous owner put a corvette engine in this thing. He's this really smart engineer who works for Boeing.


















Good times to be had in this very soon!
