30 Happens.

Let's observe a moment of silence... My youth has passed. I'm officially 30. It happened on a Monday. Yesterday to be exact. The day itself was great.. I went shopping on Newbury Street with my mom and Carson... we went out to eat at a fabulous restaurant.. I got calls, gifts, cards, etc. but I'm still a little sad...

Although, one of my friends just said that 30 has been her best year so far, and I'm going to try to adopt that attitude...

Afterall, I am losing weight (yea!), I have a wonderful hubby and Carson, I'm going to Canada and Aruba this year (double yea!), I only work 4 days a week (triple yea!) and I have great friends and family (bonus!)! I can do this 30 thing... no sweat.

For all you country fans out there... this is a very wise song.. And I'm going to keep in mind as I move forward!

I think I'll take a moment, celebrate my age
The ending of an era and the turning of a page
Now its time to focus in on where I go from here
Lord have mercy on my next thirty years

Hey my next thirty years
I'm gonna have some fun
Try to forget about all the crazy things I've done
Maybe now Ive conquered all my adolescent fears
And I'll do it better in my next thirty years

My next thirty years I'm gonna settle all the scores
Cry a little less, laugh a little more
Find a world of happiness without the hate and fear
Figure out just what I'm doing here
In my next thirty years

Oh my next thirty years, I'm gonna watch my weight
Eat a few more salads and not stay up so late
Drink a little lemonade and not so many beers
Maybe I'll remember my next thirty years

My next thirty years will be the best years of my life
Raise a little family and hang out with my wife (**HUSBAND**)
Spend precious moments with the ones that I hold dear
Make up for lost time here, in my next thirty years
In my next thirty years

Thanks Tim McGraw!
** Here's to my next 30 years! **

She's ONE year old!!

She's a big GIRL now!!


okay, so she really turned one on the 9th, but its been a pretty hectic week!! Carson had a fantastic birthday weekend!! Lots of loot and lots of love is what she got!! Me- I got a second degree burn, but it was still a great weekend!

We're having fun this weekend. Bebe (her grandmother/my mom) is in town visiting, and we're eating a lot, shopping, and seeing some sites! Like today, we went to the mill at the Longfellow's Wayside Inn

Ready..Set. GO!!

And.. she's off! Carson started crawling on Wednesday, and hasn't looked back since! Let me tell you... this girl is in to everything! Its almost like she has been taking inventory of everything she wanted to touch as soon as she figured out how to move... Nothing is off limits to her... (which WILL change!) You can tell how excited she is to be finally moving!

Carson has sprouted two more teeth... she's up to 4 (top two and bottom two) and she has another huge milestone coming up.. Her FIRST birthday!! this Friday to be exact. We have a family party planned in her honor.. with an Egg-free cake too!! ooh- and then we get to turn her two car seats around so she'll be forward facing!!! I can't believe how fast this year has flown by....

That's about all the news in Carson land!! Happy early birthday to my sweet baby girl!!
