countryman

we've been shopping around for a bigger car since both of ours are coupes. we were originally planning to trade anthony's in, but since i jokingly made a comment about trading my cooper in for a countryman, anthony's imagination ran wild. haha. i humored him by agreeing to go check them out at the mini dealership today. i really didn't think he was too serious about it. but THEN, after seeing how big the cargo is, and also finding out that you can get them with 5 seats instead of 4.. we both got pretty excited. we even took one out for a test drive. haha. he is totally sold, but i still need some convincing. of course i love it, but i'm just wondering how practical it actually is. they're surprisingly cheaper than i imagined, too. but yeah. what do you think? this or a minivan? haha sike. reese can't cramp our style!

MILK

after a boring top ramen dinner at home, anthony and i went all the way to MILK in LA because i wanted an ice cream sandwich. haha. sooo good!!!

p.s. it was so hard to take this picture and it still looks ugly.

dancing baby

i was really craving jamba juice earlier so i snuck away from work to get myself a smoothie. i always say i know what kind of food reese likes because he dances in my tummy when i eat certain things. he was dancing like crazy while i drank my peach pleasure! haha.

hunger games

when i remembered i still needed to take a picture for today, i realized i had been glued to this spot on the couch a lot lately! i read the first hunger games book a couple weekends ago and have been so anxious to read the next two. anthony started reading #1 on the kindle after i was done, and i didn't want to interfere with his reading time. but since he hadn't picked it up in a couple days i swooped in and read #2 and #3 in two and a half days! haha. the story was so good and it was such an easy read. i couldn't put it down. i'm excited for the movie!

blenders

i met up with denise for dinner/boba at blenders after work today. i hate my face in this pic but i love ninise! i had fun catching up with her. i'm excited for her new journey ahead!

joann's

i had to go to joann's tonight to buy cardstock for some frames i'm putting together for the baby's room. i was just planning on buying 5 sheets of scrapbook paper, but the artist in anthony came out and convinced me to buy a whole stack! he thought the designs were so cool. he was having as much fun there as i was! in fact, HE is the one who wandered into the holiday section. haha. or maybe he was just being nice because i humor him when he wants to go to sports authority. boring!

birthday feast

we had dinner at guppy's tonight to celebrate rianne's birthday one more time. between us and the boys, we had sooo much to eat! we. finished. everything!

serena time

we finally got to facetime with the babies today! serena is so funny. she doesn't like sharing the screen with anyone else, so this is the best shot i could get of her and russell before she ran upstairs to show us her room. everyone else gets about 3 seconds of facetime before she runs away. she never wants to hang up either. anthony finished cooking our lunch, and instead of hanging up, she wanted us to set the phone on the table so she could watch us eat. haha. crazy girl!

rianne's birthday

rianne turned 28 today! we celebrated her big day (along with my parents' anniversary) with a seafood dinner at mc cormick & schmick's (rianne's request) and then dessert at pinkberry (my mom's request). haha. happy birthday, baby sis!

28 weeks
