Hello everyone!
I haven't been posting entries for a few days due to crazy times with the family being in town. If you know my peeps, then you would understand the total chaos and insanity that ensues when all of my family gets together. And you thought you couldn't get a word in edgewise with just me! :)
Well, here's a little mini update: Giada and I are going to visit our dear Aunt Colleen on Friday, and while we are there, we are going to Disneyland! Grandma and Auntie Erin are going as well! Rob unfortunately, has to work, but I am grateful for such a loving and hard-working husband, who is dedicated to taking care of 'his' girls. I am excited to see Giada's reaction to Disneyland, though if it's like the zoo, she will notice the fence, grass, and the interior of her stroller more than a gigantic giraffe that stood directly over her. Oh well, the fun is more for her Mommy anyway, since I haven't been to Disneyland in nearly a decade. It should be a fun trip.
On the Mother's side note, let me tell you about how it goes with packing for a baby. SO, my daughter is not even 20 pounds, and I have a list literally a mile long full of items that she will need for a weekend away from Utah. What am I bringing? Clothing, toothbrush, some makeup, PJ's, underwear, etc. How much space do you think that I will get in my suitcase for my stuff? For a medium sized roller bag; probably the outer pocket. I have to bring food, clothing, diapers, portable bed thing, etc., for Giada. Not to mention the baby carseat, and her stroller. I also have to entertain her while she sits on my lap for almost two hours. I hope I don't get a mean passenger sitting next to me! But other than these things, I look forward to more adventures with my baby girl. Of course, the most exciting thing for me: having my daughter meet my Aunt, who is a remarkable woman, as her husband is dying of cancer, and she doesn't have any children, grandchildren, etc. This trip is primarily meant as a bit of sunshine for her during this dark time. My baby is like her grandbaby as well, and I am excited for the two girls to finally meet.
To end my entry, I would just like to add to the void out there, that no matter what happens, I am getting me a churro at Disneyland. I have craved one of those bad boys for 10 years (especially when I was pregnant-and no, the Costco churros DO NOT taste the same)! I am looking forward to its doughy, sweet deliciousness!

It was great to see you guys last weekend! We had a really good time. Say hi to Colleen from me! I'm so with you about Costco churros--they're not that great.
