Sorry for the super long blog post!

So this will be a long blog post.. you can go to a different friends blog now if you want. ha ha. No.. it's just that May has been a super busy month already. May 1st we decided to start giving Josie some rice cereal. That lasted about 3 days, and she just didn't seem too into it, so I think we will try again this week or the next.

Then Graduations and Mothers Days just popped up out of nowhere. I seriously spent the whole weekend looking like a chicken with my head chopped off. Cory was working that entire weekend too. My mom graduated with her Associate degree at TCC on May 7,2010. I wanted to fly home to Oklahoma to support her on her big day, but my dad told me not too. I regret listening to him. My parents came to my high school and college graduation and I'm so proud of my mom. I really wish I could have been there. The next day May 8, 2010 Cory's brother Casey graduated at ISU from the Pharmacy program. It was really cool to see someone graduating with that much schooling under their belt. I've never been to a doctorate degree ceremony. And of course I didn't think to get a present for either of these grads. I'm so horrible.


The next day was Mothers day. I went crazy trying to get my mom's and mother in laws brag books together. You may think oh thats simple. Well it's not when you spend 8-9 hours a day at work, spend half the day pumping or feeding a baby, spend 3 hours a day to play with your kid, and 1-2 hours a day to clean up and get ready for bed the next day. So I had to neglect some cleaning in order to get two brag books done and mailed in time. I thought they both turned
out pretty cute, but not because of me, but because I have such dang cute nieces and nephews
that i got to put in the book.

Oh yea.. My first ever being a mom on mothers day- Well lets just say... Cory worked all weekend long. ha ha. Actually he has worked every single Mothers Day since we have been
married (4 yrs). So i'm use to not having him on Mothers Day. But he did do something cute for me, and I ruined it. I told Cory that all I wanted for Mothers Day was flowers that I could plant in front of our house. Well he woke me up at 6:15 AM and said Happy Mothers Day and handed me my card and present. My present was a membership at Massage Envy and I get 6 1 hour massages. I know you are all probably like - wow he hit the jack pot there on that one. But I looked at it and was like oh. Cory looked at me and was like you don't like it. So i spent the rest of the day trying to figure out how I can re-do that whole moment over and again and let Cory know that I loved it. Needless to say he wouldn't let me back peddle at all. ha ha. But I have used up one of my massages and it was great!

Next Josie went to her first ever friend birthday party. Jaislyn Robbins turned 3 and invited josie to her Princess Birthday Party. It was so cute. Her mom went all out, making a castle cake, decorated burger king crowns for everyone, played pin the kisses on the frog. It was amazing. Sorry Josie I don't think your parties will ever be that nice. ha ha.
Last but not least.. today is my birthday. Cory is not working this weekend so I get him for myself. That right there means it's already great birthday. But he has already made me breakfast in bed (a large cheese, hame, bell pepper, and onion omelet), and some sausage links, and a large glass of orange juice. It was great! He has already baked me a cake, and is going to take me out to a nice dinner tonight, and the whole family is going to a drive in movie to watch Iron Man 2!. Thanks hunny you are the best! So I would have to say it's been a crazy month, but a fun one too.

I hope you had a great birtday! You are so awesome and don't worry I always forget to get people grad presents. Enjoy the massages. I have had a few gift receiving moments like yours. I think we are just human!
