The Beauty of Fandango

The best part of using Fandango?  I was able to purchase tickets for the movie Ryan really wanted to see and tell him we were going to see something else.  I told him we were going to the 1:20 showing of Limitless but actually, we went to see Hanna.  He didn't notice anything (including the display above the door -- clearly shouting HANNA 1:20) until the movie started and then he turned to me and smiled.

He had been had.

It was my way of saying thanks because I went to babysit last night during our quality date time.  But a friend was in a bind & her children are super cute, so instead of Los Porchs, I had a movie date with two children under the age of 5 & we watched Despicable Me (which, let's be honest, is both better w/ children and something I probably would have made Porch watch at home anyway). 



Like anyone could resist this?!

Capped off our afternoon w/ trips to Target & Dominicks to pick up some essentials for the week and now each have a beer in hand & are relaxing to prepare for the week ahead.

Personally?

I'm most excited for chocolate marshmellow eggs at Grandma & Grandpa's for Easter!  What's your favorite part of the Easter season?

Charlotte {9 months}

Let's just put this out there, we picked Charlotte before Charlotte was a princess.  ;)  And I'm not sure that the royal baby will ever be called Charlie or Charlie Bug and I'm even more certain that I don't care what they named their kid.  It's just about to be an amazingly popular baby name and we were TOTES ahead of that trend. Charlotte is 9 months old already! Stats Weight:  20 lbs, 12 oz (86.13 %ile) Length:  29.75 inches (98.75 %ile) Head circumference:  18.23 inches (96.69 %ile) This girl is perfect.  She is proportional and amazingly squishy. Teeth:  still just the 2 lower, but I'm confident she'll have a few top teeth soon.  She's been a drool machine lately and everything is back to being in her mouth. Charlotte likes... ... walking around the house (holding mama and daddy's fingers) ... Army crawling, especially when she can pull on the high pile carpet in her room ... those Gerber wheel treat things ... bath time ...

Charlotte's birth story

Thank goodness this isn't my 40 week update; I was really nervous that I'd have to write one of those and even possibly the dreaded 41 week update!  Today was her due date, but we got to meet her just a little early.  Charlotte Esther joined our family at 2:07am on Friday, August 8th... and changed our lives forever.  There's now a squishy baby who calls for us and loves nothing more than snuggling on our chests.  We are, in fact, living the dream.  A dream 4 years in the making and worth every moment.  My heart is so full of love for Charlotte and I am so excited to see how she grows and changes. I have always enjoyed reading the birth stories of my blogger friends' babies and felt it gave me hope as it was the final moment in the battle against infertility, the crossing of a finish line.  So today, in celebration of love and this chubby cheeked baby girl, I share with you the story of Charlotte's birth.

Momma K

It's true.  I love my mom.  She's my best source of advice & wisdom, even though it took me roughly 20 years to figure that out.  I just wanted to take a quick second and thank her for all that she's done for me and especially for the things she didn't do for me.  =)  I wouldn't be the person I am today without her. Love you mom! We're pretty fabulous, no?
