Pink Flamingos and First Birthdays...

August has been busy,busy,busy so far.I can't believe I haven't blogged since the 4th,really?Yes,apparently.Still working on the giveaway,I want to do things a little differently this time around and am still in search for something cool to give away!

Yesterday my mother in law who had flown down from northern California took the kids,my mom and me to Sea World.I don't know what Wayland really thought of it but Heidi was amazed by everything.It might sound cheesy but I literally did get teary eyed watching her face as she saw killer whales for the first time in person.Plus the pet show they have with all the rescued animals was neat and they had a Boston Terrier in the performance which I wanted to take home oh so badly.

One of the easiest creatures to capture on film yesterday by far was the flamingos!Heidi loves pink so to her these birds had style and she was entertained for a long time by them.




Today was my sons first birthday!I can't believe its been a year already.He had a cheesecake and a small carrot cake and red velvet cake however he didn't get a chance to enjoy any of it.I think we waited too late into the evening to give it to him and at that point all he wanted to do was nurse.But Happy Fist Birthday all the same little man.It was hard on me not to have my husband there and for my husband to not be there for this milestone but happy to report I have enough saved for the airfare part of moving to Alaska,now I just need to come up with the moving our stuff up there part.
