Back to Blogging...or so I hope!

I know, I've been a bad blogger...things have been very crazy around here so heres a recap of whats been going on.

On a side note before I get started...I am totally having the best few days lately. I have been very productive in getting things done and organized, which has put me in the best mood ever! I am sitting in Florida room enjoying my coffee and breakfast, and thinking what a great way to start the weekend!

Last weekend, on Friday night, Kennie and I finally made it to Mike and Stacy's to meet Christopher Michael. It was very cool, and emotional for me! It was nice to get the whole scoop from Stacy on the whole experience, and bond with Christopher. He is so cute and tiny!! I'm so glad that our kids are going to grow up together! Saturday morning, I made the long overdue trip to Shannons in Buffalo. I left early Saturday morning, and went to the jewelers in Williamsville to get my rings checked and cleaned, and then off to the Conorozzo house. We spent the rest of the morning hanging out with the kids, and then it was off to Dad & Beth's to check out the new Log cabin and see everyone. We managed to leave Tuscan with Nana, so we only had the twins for the afternoon. We then stopped at Super Cuts to see Shannon's mom and then it was off to Louie's for a Buffalo Slime Dog...(a hot dog w/texas hot sauce) and very good and very cheap lunch, that brought back memories of our younger years and being out until the wee hours of the morning. By this time it was 5 pm and we were back to the house to go through baby stuff and hang out...well we didnt do much "hanging out".....by the time we fed the twins and put them to bed, cut and colored my hair, went through baby stuff and worked on invitations, it was very late, but we finished the night off with great pasta that Frank brought home from the restaurant. Sunday morning, we were on the road again to the outlet mall in Waterloo..with my truck FULL of baby stuff from Shannon...if this baby is a boy...he will be outfitted for the next 5 years of this life from hand me downs from her boys! And if its a girl...she might be a little tom boyish!
We got some great deals at the outlets, for both of us, the husbands and the babies...another trip for her and I came to and end, and we headed back in out different directions. Something that we have gotten used to in the past years of our life, but something that still doesn't seem right. In all reality us being 2 hours apart isnt that far away, but its the days where you just want to swing by each others house to go shopping, or run errands together, or meet for lunch, that make you realize that 2 hours isnt that close either. But I think now because we both have families, we will be spending a lot of time in Rochester and the distance wont be so far...



Some purchases from the outlets...the green moose one might be a going home from the hospital outfit...
