Happy 1st Birthday Emma & Ava!!!!!!!

Wow. I can’t even believe it! My little itty bitty babies are one year old!!! I was going to type quite a bit more this morning but I have to get ready to leave for the weekend. I slept in and now I only have a couple hours to get a bunch of stuff done. So, here’s some pictures instead.

Ew ew ew ew ew ew ew!!!!!! I’m doing the heebie jeebie dance right now. I went into Ashton’s bedroom and when I was coming out there was a wasp flying around outside the door. So of course I slammed the door! Then I went through the bathroom into the girls bedroom (luckily they are connected) and went out the balcony door on the 3rd floor to tell Preston to come kill the wasp. He was outside with my brother flying a remote control helicopter, which is now broken. Well I’m not exactly the brightest crayon in the box at times and I left the balcony door open and as I turned around to go in, FOUR wasps flew into the girls bedroom!!! I started freaking out and slammed the door closed. Good thing my brother’s balcony door from his room was unlocked so I was able to go back into the house that way. Anyway, Preston came up and killed the wasps. He’s my hero.

What is it with these wasps?!?!? There must be a nest outside that we don’t know about. We’ve looked all over and haven’t found one yet. Seriously, the wasps have it out for me!!!

I need to briefly complain about something. I buy and sell a lot of things on ebay. When I sell something, I weigh the item before listing in and only charge actual shipping. I hate when people try to make money off of shipping! We just bought a huge lot of clothes for Ashton and were charged $19.95 for shipping when it really only cost just over $13 to ship. And it came in an old box that looks like it’s seen better days. The clothes were perfect, but I dunno… I don’t like when people try to make money off shipping. I also bought the girls 3 brand new with tags tank tops from The Children’s Place for only $5.99. I was charged $5 shipping and assumed that it would be for USPS Priority which would cost $4.80 for something of this weight. Turns out the tank tops were sent USPS First Class for $1.86! Grrrrrr it just gets on my nerves.

And on the topic of ebay… I just scored an amazing deal on a pair of 7 For All Mankind jeans that retail for $198. Guess what I paid? Okay I’ll tell you….. $13. THIRTEEN DOLLARS. The first thing I would think if someone told me they bought designer jeans for $13 is that they must be fake. Don’t worry, these are authentic, you can totally tell. I’m wondering why they didn’t have more bids though… The seller has a lot of feedback that is 100% positive so I’m pretty sure I just got the most amazing deal of all time. SWEET.

Designer jeans are awesome. Jeans are one thing that I will spend a good deal of money on and not feel bad about it. I’m such a jeans and T shirt kind of girl, so I will pay just about anything for the perfect pair of jeans. In my experience, designer jeans fit like a glove. Perfect. I’m so excited to get these in the mail!

p.s. I think this might have to be my next ebay purchase. LOL! Can you imagine?

I only went tanning for 5 minutes and I’ve already got a little color. If that doesn’t tell you how white I am, I don’t know what will! I use this EGO Hemp Tanning Accelerator and it works really well. Have you ever used the heated tanning lotion? It makes your skin feel like it’s on fire. I hate it!

I think today I’m going to go get a separate checking account for 2 Lil Angels Boutique. Up until now I have been using one of our regular accounts (but keeping track of everything obviously) but now I think it’s time for a separate account.

And speaking of 2 Lil Angels Boutique…

I’m still up and I really need to get to bed. I hate how on days like today when I am not on my computer very much, I sit down at night for “just a minute” and then hours later I’m like, “oh, maybe I should go to bed”.

I went tanning tonight which I usually never do, but I am determined to not be pasty white for once in my life. I want an actual tan and not an artificial one. I tan okay as long as I take it slow. I burn really bad if I don’t carefully control how long I’m exposed. I’m really paranoid about skin cancer though… and my Dad did have skin cancer which started out as a mole (and has since been removed) so it’s probably not the best idea… I’ll probably end up switching to the usual spray tanning. I love the feeling after you get done tanning. It makes my skin feel happy. It won’t feel so happy if I end up with skin cancer though!

So we are officially going to Las Vegas for our 2 year wedding anniversary. Officially. I am SO EXCITED. This will be my 5th time to Vegas and it never gets old. LOVE IT. We are saving for several things after this trip for our anniversary, such as a down payment to buy a house, and…. a trip to Mexico next spring! Woooo! I can’t wait. I’ve never been but we are going to try hard to save up for a family trip. I’ll need to get a passport by then because I don’t have one. I will admit, being out of the country freaks me out a little… but it’s Mexico… so how bad could it be? I really don’t like the idea of being in a country where I can’t even speak the language.

So. 3 days until the girls FIRST BIRTHDAY. For your entertainment, here is a picture of me 3 days before the girls were born. WOW.
