A week of randomness

I know I am slacking a bit - sorry blame it on the pregnancy. It's come to my attention that I don't complain enough about being pregnant. I like being pregnant so I have few complaints and the few I have I save for bedtime and only Steve hears them. So blame my lack of blogging on me being pregnant - see I'm making an effort. That could count as a complaint....

So first we start with Sophia and her new found love of the pool. At the beginning of the season she fell in by accident (thanks a lot Ben) and it scared the crap out of her. She wanted nothing to do with it. Then thanks (or no thanks) to Aunt Gin Gin she encouraged Sophia to jump into the pool and now all bets are off. Now she wants in the pool all the time. Being the "flaky" Mom I am I was given orders to get the child a proper life vest. So we ran out and she got this. She was so excited.....



and then wouldn't take it off....


Samantha finally getting to hold Baby Kinley too bad it was just hours before she left to go home to Seattle. Sam was excited she opened her eyes for her.


We stopped by for one last goodbye with the Jensens - and Steve was star struck! This lovely girl (her name is escaping me at the moment) was an extra in the movie Napoleon Dynamite. As you can see Steve was so excited! Vote for Pedro!!


Wednesday night we went to DC overnight for a party. We stayed at the Hay Adams - across from the White House. Steve loves it that they know him and always welcome him back - he's such a nerd! They upgraded us to a Jr. suite for the night. I felt bad I didn't being the kids then we had so much room.


OK but this is the only reason why I love this hotel. This bed is equivalent to sleeping on a cloud. Seriously it is that wonderful! The comforter is the softest ever. I could go on and on about this bed. See the indent to the right -- that's my head imprint...lol I always lay across it when we get in the room to make sure they didn't change the sheet company. Still the same - xoxoxo

I stole a pillow this time.....shhhhhh don't tell



Ok you have to excuse me for the next few pictures. This is from the party we went to in DC. It was dark and I only had my camera phone. This would be grown men trying to hang onto their youth. They are playing flip cup.....You chug the beer and then put the cup down and then need to flip it over with one hand banging the table. Seriously what ever happened to quarters?!?!?



Steve hanging in there....


Now this is Steve not being able to back down from a challenge thrown at him from Kevin (he collects Garden Gnomes so that should tell you something right there). It was who could chug the can of beer the fastest: boys! They are little boys!



This is as far as they got. I was sitting away and its unclear what happened. All I know is it was started and then Steve choked and ended up spittin beer all over everyone standing with in range.....

I told Steve that the baby needed a new car - so this is what I picked! Nice huh!!! I didn't say I needed one for all the kids - just 1 car to fit 1 kid :)
