Every month there is a WWE wrestling pay per view and Wayne usually has friends over for it. This month it was Wrestlemania.

Today was my birthday. I turned 30. Woohoo! Wayne had to work, which was fine cause we had plans to celebrate it that weekend, so Hailey and I had dinner with my family.

I love this little girl more than words.

I got together for lunch with a few current and one ex-coworker of mine.

Hailey loved making Kate laugh. She definitely takes after her Daddy in the entertainment department.

Isn't she just the most precious! They love each other!

Later that evening we headed to Babe's to celebrate my birthday. Mark (one of the owners) and the staff there are like family! They treat us so well! It was so fun!

What I didn't know is that it was actually a surprise party with all of my favorites (minus a few) for my birthday.

Me with my girls and of course Wayne with Andy with my brother photo bombing in the back.

Thanks Mark and the Babe's staff! Love you guys!

Wayne had his hernia surgery. It all went VERY well, but he was in a lot more pain than what he thought he would be in. Silly guy.

Over the next few days, there was a lot of napping and cuddling in the chair going on.

My Dad and sister's came over to help us clean up our yard and put up Hailey's swingset. Later that evening we all headed down to Lakeville to Teresa's Mexican Restaraunt for dinner.

I thought we were done with the snow, but apparently not. April snow, brings May...what?

Today we celebrated my cousin Nicole at her bridal shower. I didn't take many pictures. It was a pretty classic shower. There was super delicious mexican food, a gift opening and a few games. I did take a picture of the cake, cause I thought it was so cute.

This Saturday, we celebrated Nicole at her Bachelorette Party.

 photo Collage-Nicoleoutfit_zpsec0ad874.jpg

We started at her sisters house with snacks and drinks. We rented a party bus and headed to Stella's Fish Cafe for dinner. Then we went to Downtown to the Pourhouse. It was such a great night with all the food, drinks, dancing and girl time!

I brought Hailey into Wayne's work today, because he wanted her to be on one of his Teresa's Mexican Restaraunt commercials. Here are a few picture of her doing her thang.

And here is the commercial that played on 101.3 KDWB.

Hailey's picture with the Easter Bunny that we got done the week before.

 photo Collage-EasterBunny_zpsfa54a980.jpg

Hailey wore a navy blue dress that my boss lady got her.

 photo Collage-Easterdress_zpsf8897485.jpg

We started out Easter with brunch at my MIL's house. It was delish. She is such a great cook and I never have to cook or clean up for some reason, so I love it! Teehee. Hailey got an Easter basket from Gramma Kimmy.

Hugs and kisses for Mommy.

Then we went to my parents house and Hailey got this:

She's too little for it yet, but they're going to keep it for her for next summer.

We ended up going to a movie with some of my family.

 photo IMG_5444_zps3222a29a.jpg

We saw GI Joe 2 in 3D. I'm normally not a huge 3D person, but I have to tell you it was good and it makes it better that not the WHOLE movie is in 3D. Just parts. It was great overall, even though Channing Tatum gets killed off within the first 10 minutes. LAME!

This week it's all about the Backstreet Boys. Their new album, In A World Like This, comes out tomorrow!

I'm a sucker for boy bands and especially this one!

Here is a newbie off of their new album: "In A World Like This"



And just because I LOVE them so much, here is one of my favorite oldies: "Everybody"



This is their 8th studio album (7th in the U.S.). This is the 1st album featuring all 5 original members in 6 years. It will also be their first independent release since they left their old label, Jive Records, in 2010. It is also their 20th Anniversary!!

Happy Anniversary boys! What boy band is your favorite?

Today we had family pictures taken at Venture Photography. I absolutely LOVE all the pictures they did, but one down side is that they are SO expensive and you don't get your product right away.

Here is a slideshow of a few of our favorites that they made for us.

We love football in our house, so we had a Superbowl Party.My Dad came up with some trivia questions and I had a prize for the winner. There ended up being two winners, so it was a good thing I got more than one prize!

She does such a good job of connecting with her fans.

It was so good and she puts on such a show! I know she is so eccentric, but I just love her!

I met my friend Krista and her little girl for lunch at Five Guys. She has a daughter that is about a year younger than Hailey. I can't wait until they are old enough to play together. It was so good seeing them.

Thursday, February 28, 2013

My sister had her end of the year speech performance at school. It was so good to see her in a different way, around her peers and out of her element persay.

This is us ringing in the New Year at Babe's! I think we've been there for New Years the last several years and we always have so much fun!!

 photo IMG_4479_zpsbc9d1ad7.jpg

Hailey spent the night at my parents house, so we could sleep in and go visit my friend Laura in the hospital who just had twin boys on December 28th. They were in the NICU, so we didn't get to hold them or get any pictures at that time, but it was great to at least meet them and visit with Laura, Scott and her other three boys. Oofta does she have her hands full with 5 boys!

Wednesday, January 2, 2013

Today we had Hailey's 18 month check-up with the Doctor. Stay tuned for a more detailed post about Hailey at 18 months old!

We went to see Sesame Street Live. Let's just say that Hailey loved it.

I love this picture of them walking together.

 photo IMG_4615_zps12559611.jpg

She's such a Daddy's girl.

We went a little early cause we heard there were lots of things to do beforehand.

So spoiled!

 photo IMG_4688_zps8aa31ea7.jpg

She sat pretty well the whole time, again, mostly with Daddy.

Overall it was fun and such a great experience for our first show.

Another Vikings game today. We were cheering but sadly, they did not win.

Here is a picture of Hailey and our friend Diego. She was helping herself to his snacks.

Silly girl!

Olly Murs was in the KDWB Skyroom, so of course we had to go check him out and meet him. Hailey was so cute when he started singing. She was standing by Wayne and dancing, and all of a sudden made a bee-line for the stage, got up on stage and was dancing with him while he was performing. It was THE absolute cutest thing ever and Olly was such a good sport about it. She basically stole his limelight.
