Disneyland



Adam had a pretty craptastic birthday last week due to some drama within his family. I decided to do something special and totally unexpected for him because honestly he is the most awesome husband and father anyone could ask for. Anyway I planned a surprise trip to Disneyland. Adam and I have a long history with Disney (we were engaged at Disney World, had our honeymoon at Disneyland, and our first family vacation was to Disneyland.) so I thought this would be a fun trip. I decided to leave Eve with my parents since we would only be gone for the weekend. Adam works an hour away from where we live so my parents told Adam that we were going to meet him at work on Friday to take him out to dinner for his birthday. I showed up with the car packed and my dad ended up taking Adams car home. He was so shocked. We headed out that night and I actually drove the whole way there so he could relax. (Pretty impressive since I hate driving.) It was really nice to get so much time with just him. We had a great weekend overall we played all day at Disneyland and took a small break to go to Portillos for hotdogs and cheese fries. Portillos was worth the 6 hours drive from Phoenix. Adam and I really ended up missing Eve on the trip and kept saying we wished we had brought her along but then again we enjoyed have just us time. When she was little it was really easy to leave her but as she gets older she is able to express how much she misses us which makes us miss her. We both almost broke down in tears the first night as she cried uncontrollably at the thought of us not coming home. It took bribing her with "If you are a good girl we will bring you presents." to calm her down. She is extremely spoiled. She scored candy, 2 bracelets, a Tinkerbell baby doll, Disney ears, a Boo in costume baby doll, and a Monsters Inc play set. Eve loves Monsters, Inc. She insists we call her "Boo" and she calls Adam and I Kitty. She could watch that movie nonstop all day. So we had a great time just the two of us but really missed Boo all the while.

Picture Fun.

So Eve is going to preschool through the local parks and rec department. They asked for us to bring in a picture of our family last week. Well being the great mom that I am I rarely take pictures much less pictures of all of us. So last night I remembered that I needed to bring them today because it has been 3 classes and I am the only mom who hasn't brought them in. We had just put Eve down for bed and Adam was just sitting down for dinner when I insisted that they be taken immediately. Eve was super excited to be able to get out of bed and was a goof ball during all of the pictures and Adam was pissy because I interrupted his food. This was the best picture we got.

Tumbling and Ballet

So life got super crazy because of finishing up all my classes so I haven't had a chance to update this in forever. Eve just finished her preschool, tumbling, and ballet classes. She really enjoyed them. This next week she starts a new session of preschool and tumbling. Here are some videos to see the progress she made over the first session.

Eve's 3rd Birthday!

Can you believe that Eve is 3 today? We had a really special day together. I took off work to take her to get her hair and nails done fancy. Her new thing is she loves everything to be fancy. After that we went home and I baked a cake for her and we had a family birthday party. After she opened all of her presents we went to Build A Bear where she built an Irish bear like every year since she was born. This year she named it Four! The guy at the store insisted we put 4 hearts in it so we bought a beating heart and then Adam, Eve and I all made a special wish for one before she put them all in. Overall I think she really enjoyed herself today I mean who wouldn't after all that pampering.

The Adam/Becky Game

Eve's new game is to play the Adam/Becky game. She is always Becky and she picks someone to be Adam. "Becky" tells "Adam" to do everything for her. Adam get my chapstick. Adam make me dinner. Apparently I have been telling to do everything lately. I guess I better watch myself. When she is Becky she also has to do her homework all the time or go to work. She really is observant.

Silly Girl

Tonight Adam was asking Eve how she got a scratch on her hand. Here is their conversation.
Eve: The kitty scratched me.
Adam: No he didn't.
Eve: Grandma scratched me.
Adam: Are you lying?
Eve: Bella scratched me.
Adam: Now I know you are making stuff up.
Eve: Maybe I scratched myself on the table when I fell down.
Adam: So you don't know what happened?
Eve: Maybe.
Then she runs out of the room. Such a silly munchkin.
