Hello Lover

Were you expecting something else? This is like my wildest dream come true, the best of both of my worlds. These come in other flavors and are available at Target for the price of a grande drink of choice from Starbucks. I guess there are some major pros of being the one who goes to the grocery store every week. Although, my scale may argue it is a con...

Notice I didn't take a picture of the container after I was through eating it. Good thing these come in pints, and I had to force myself to put it up. This isn't to say I won't have more later tonight!

I did not eat the whole thing in case your wondering, I wanted to, I really did.

New review

Today for lunch Cooper and I picked up some Pita Pit! When I visited Orange Tree the first time (if anyone ever wants to go there I'll totally be willing to sacrifice time to go with you) they had their menus out. This place in on 9th, between Broadway and Boulevard. I really like trying out new places, especially in Edmond, because I think it is important to the community to grow. Those people across whatever is going in by Spring Creek can argue with me all they want, but the less I have to leave Edmond to shop, eat, and enjoy my life, the better. (Especially with a 1 year old in tow!) Anyway, for a little over $10, I had a grilled chicken pita with lettuce, tomatoes, and secret sauce, and Coop had the Quesa-pita. I really enjoyed it, so I'll probably go back after I save up some money. It's not like going to Mickey-D's where we both can eat for about $5! Check them out! They are right across the street from "The Rocket Ship Park" so you can grap lunch there and let your kids run crazy at the park, there isn't a better combination!

Weekend Wrap Up

We didn't do a whole lot this weekend, I catered a little lunch for my mom, and made another massive batch of cookies, the sugar cookies turned out better then last time! We did take Jeremy to Orange Tree...Cooper wanted to go, yes I'm aware that he can't talk yet and it makes me feel better about going to blame someone else. Jeremy loved it too! It was pretty crowded for a rainy saturday! The Warriors and Linda came into town for Jenny A.'s baby shower, I attempted to get a picture of Cooper and Lydia, but they apparently were way more interested in playing with their grandparents' old toys! Maybe this week will be more interesting.

It's not pretty...

a photo of myself running. I don't claim to be a good runner, or a fast runner, maybe shouldn't even claim to be a runner, and I could write about a lot of interesting things that I saw during this race, but I'm sure many people could write things about me, so I won't. I was seriously lacking motivation to train for this race, to run it, and I can't tell you how glad I was when I got to turn around and didn't have to keep going...like Jeremy did. So thank you to my BFF Jenny and my mom for putting up with Cooper while you waited for us to come in, and thanks for the pictures, even though we may not look pretty. As for my time...better luck next time! Maybe I won't have a baby by c-section and run 2 half marathons in 14 months, what was I thinking?!? But I have now successfully completed my 3rd half marathon, and Jeremy now has completed his once in a life time marathon....I on the other hand do plan to tackle one more full...I know, yes, I am crazy!

from my first prom to theirs....

Last week I happily agreed to come to the Hall's and take some prom pics of Drew and Ashley. I've known the Halls forever, but we became close to them with DeWayne bet me I wouldn't finish the marathon 2 years ago....well I did and he and Beth took us to a lovely dinner at Red Rock out on Lake Hefner. We tried to get the same bet with Jeremy since he ran this year, but he wouldn't take us up on it! Cooper loves Drew, and he loves DeWayne and Beth, so I really think me taking pictures was all a plan for them to see Cooper. It's funny, and you might think I'm crazy, but I think that Cooper loves the Halls because I sat with them 2 years ago at every basketball game, I mean literally 5-6 nights a week while I was pregnant. Jeremy ended up being Drew's coach, then we got to know Ashley when she and Drew started dating. They are such a beautiful couple, and a much more age appropriate for prom...

dead in his tracts

that's right, Baby Einstein still will stop Cooper dead in his tracts, as soon as he hears Disney's chime, he's mesmorized....

zoo trip

This is not Cooper's first time to the Zoo, but my first time to take him to the zoo. He has been with my mom several times, and for Easter we got a family zoo pass. Since it's so nice this week I thought I'd take him today! Well, myself along with every 4-5th grade class in the state for the science expo. Needless to say it was packed, but we had to go today, I needed time to recover to run on Sunday. (Recover, who am I kidding, like it's going to help my time?) I did get some pics of him, he was very intent on walking around by himself, and if it hadn't been so hot or crowded; I would've let him walk around more. He really loves all of the animals and gets so excited to see them. It was fun to watch him! I personally can't wait until the Children's Zoo opens, which is in like a year, but I bet Cooper is going to love it!
