Madison was at a friend’s house over spring break and had a little accident on the swing. She scraped up her face pretty good and knocked out a tooth! We didn’t realize she had lost a tooth until the next day! And the even bigger surprise is that they found her tooth the next day in their yard! So, this makes the 3rd tooth that Maddy has knocked out! Let’s just hope it’s the LAST!

Livy eating sushi. She loves it!
Mmmmm…… Best sushi in Little Rock. Doesn’t that just make your mouth water?
After having a fabulous weekend in Dallas, I was able to come home and celebrate my Birthday with some of my oldest, bestest friends! We went to Gina’s Sushi and I was spoiled with this AMAZING sushi. We have been going to Gina’s for about 5 years now and can’t get enough. Both Maddy and Livy eat sushi too. Just a side note, white tuna is the best raw fish ever. Anyways, back to my birthday. It’s nights like these that I am so happy to be back in Arkansas and able to celebrate with by best friends. Thank y’all for coming and celebrating with me!! I kept the Beatys up past their bed time:) 25 isn’t so bad after all!!
These were all our purchases from the day. We somehow managed to fit our luggage in too!
One of my favorite purchases of the weekend.
I absolutely LOVE Mexican food, and Abuelo’s is my fave Mexican restaurant! So of course we had to eat lunch there and it was FABULOUS!

Brandy, Me, and Leslie
A couple of us girls decided it was time for a much needed girls weekend. Marji, Andrea Swenson, Leslie Posey, and me loaded up and headed out on Friday after all the husbands got off work. I can’t remember enjoying a 5 hour drive so much!! There were no kids screaming, annoying cartoons playing, or constant stops for peeing. It was a stress free drive full of great conversation! We got to Dallas around 10:30 and stayed with one of Marji’s friend, Brandy. We dragged our butts out of bed after staying up way too late, and began our day around 9:00. We went to IKEA, Sam Moon, the outlet malls, and Fire wheel Mall. Marji and I were able to see our Cousin Marcie who spent part of the day with us. We ended the day at a wonderful Italian restaurant where an Italian Elvis sang Happy Birthday to me. It was so wonderful to get out of town for a couple of days and have some “me” time. I didn’t have to worry about school, cleaning, cooking, or breaking up fights. The only thing I had to do was talk, shop, and eat………….it doesn’t get much better than that!! I am grateful for an amazing husband that doesn’t mind playing Mr. Mom when I am not around and encourages me to take time for myself to de-stress . I love that he realizes I am a much better wife/mother when I am able to take time for myself. I love that my kids were so excited to see me when I got back and welcomed me with warm hugs and kisses. I love that I have a sister and amazing new friends to share these experiences with. I look forward to the next girls trip………..
Madison had her top 2 teeth pulled when she was 2 1/2 years old because she fell and chipped them. It is so weird to see her with a front tooth! She is so excited they are finally coming in!
