Thanksgiving

Aaron is definitely my child in that he loves attention, so he really loved Thanksgiving.  He spent all day being held by lots of people who love him. We had lunch at my parents house. Aaron sat next to the table in his rock and play, cooing and chattering during the prayer and during lunch. 

My family thinks that Aaron looks like Sammy from the side.
We all watched the dog show together. I was betting that a poodle would win but sadly that was not the case. Sammy and I actually got to sit next to each other on the couch while someone else held Aaron. (I swear Aaron has a sensor that goes off every time we sit next to each other. He'll be dead asleep and we'll sit by each other and he'll immediately wake up and start crying.)
 
We watched Magnum PI after that and Sammy admitted that it's actually good :) 

We went over to Sammy's parents for dinner where everyone fought to hold him and Aaron got to play on a play mat his grandma bought for him. I got to catch up with family and friends which was so nice.

On Black Friday Aaron got to go shopping for the first time. It was fun to have him there while he was happy. I kept holding things up to him and asking him if he wanted me to buy them for him. My brother pushed him around in the cart through the whole store which was really sweet. 

My sister and I went and got pedicures, something I've been wanting to do for months. It was so nice to be pampered and not have to be a mom for a little bit. It'd been over a year since my last pedicure so they had to do quite a bit of work! 
Aaron had been backed up for quite a few days so I gave him some prune juice to help things along but he barely drank any, passing out hard on me. I told him that he was so cute I wanted to eat him and he started smiling in his sleep.
He slept on my chest for a few hours after that and it was so so nice. When he woke up ready to eat again, he finally pooped, just in time for Sammy to get there and help clean it up hahaha!

Aaron ended the day deciding that my mom's sweater is absolutely delicious. He just kept nibbling on it, drooling like crazy.

Say Yes?

Well. Today I went dress shopping. And it was a really fun experience! I went a few weeks ago, and that wasn't as fun. I almost fainted because everything was so tight! And I looked like a little girl playing dress up. This time though, I felt sophisticated, it was a much better experience, and I may have found THE dress. I know it's one of these ones, but at the store I thought I was going to get one dress. But as I got home and looked through the pictures again, I think another one will work better and is really THE one. I'm going to sit on it though.  I thought it'd be fun to put the pictures up here and let you all see! Tell me which dress is your favorite! If there's two pictures together, it's the front and back.  How was dress shopping for you?  I like the lace and buttons on this dress     Love the top and flowyness of this dress. Really love the neck, top, and ruching on this dress. Not sure about the train though. This...

Book of Mormon Musical?

Well, it's here in Denver. Kind of hard not to notice it with all the signs. The Book of Mormon Musical. I have very mixed feeling about this. I know that in the grand scheme of the universe, this musical shouldn't bother me so much. But it really, really does. The Book of Mormon is something very near and dear to my heart. And I know that people make fun of the LDS church on an hourly basis. I've heard all the jokes. Not a big deal. Plus, I'm blonde. I can take a joke. But this musical really disturbs me. I listened to the songs when they were released, thinking oh, I'm gonna be one of those cool people who fights for this play. But then I really started listening to the words. And they bothered me. A lot. Saying that missionaries who are out in the field make up things on the spot, like having sex with frogs will get rid of aids, it bugged me. I don't even want to talk about some of the other songs. I heard them and felt, just not right. I was comforted by t...

I'm not going to waste time talking about why I have a blog or how this is my first new blog post, because I like to have faith in the human race and the fact that they can read and can interpret these things on there own. I mean, there aren't any posts under this one so obviously this is my first new post. And having a blog is not a mandatory thing to live so one could hypothetically conclude that this is for fun. That is hypothetically speaking of course. I just used 89 words explaining why I didn't need to explain something. I hope I counted that right. Anyways.  Three years ago today on a rainy day I remember being in a basement with a bunch of little people and adults for a scout thing. And I remember them talking about how a certain friend of mine was going to be a senior and how that's so crazy. I was just going to be a freshman at the time and thought I was the coolest thing since duct tape. (Sorry sliced bread, duct tape is waay cooler.) Now that friend is get...
