Making Memories

We had such a fun, busy weekend! Our weekend started pretty much on Thursday when Josh and I had our date night. We had dinner at one of our favorite restaurants, Outback, then went to see The Ugly Truth. I LOVED IT! I had been waiting for this to come out for awhile and it didn't disappoint.

Friday, our usually family night, Josh and I took Haylee to the zoo. Our friends (and neighbors) Jody and Jake came along with us. They have a fun event in the evenings called Starry Safari from 6-9 where you can feed giraffes, jump on the inflatable bouncers, get soaked by the splash pad, fly down inflatable water slides, and still see a ton of animals, all for 1/3 of the cost to go to the zoo during regular hours. All the animals were actually awake at this time of the day so we saw a lot more, plus being night time and all it's only 110 degrees instead of 115 so you can't beat that! The kids had a blast and boy did Haylee sleep good that night!

Saturday we started of the day jumping the car with the golf cart so we could go to Checker for a new battery going to Zac's 7th Birthday Party. Kaysi rented a huge inflatable water slide which provided most of the kids with endless amounts of fun. Haylee however, decided to stick with the baby pool after attempting the slide with Zac only to slip into the pool part and inhale a bunch of water. She decided all the boys were too rowdy for her and she like to chill with the girls.

We had to leave the party early because Josh and I had tickets to the Cirque Du Soleil show, Saltimbanco, that was touring here. We had a wonderful time. This was my 8th Cirque Du Soleil show so I guess you could say I'm quite the fan. Josh loves the shows too and it always amazes us what they come up with. It's crazy!

Tonight, Jody and I went to see My Sister's Keeper. What a sad, sad movie. I can't remember the last time I actually cried in a movie theater but there wasn't a dry eye in there. It made me so thankful to have a healthy child and it made my heart break even more for little Kate. I think everyone knows someone with cancer or has been affected by the disease in one way or another and it is truly heart breaking. If you plan to see this movie make sure you have tissues nearby.

In more upbeat news, I finished my first round of Femara! We are hoping and praying it will help us to conceive a little bundle of joy this month. Keep your fingers crossed and I will update you all soon (well in 2 weeks or so). Oh, and by the way, "the frequency of twins occurring in women who conceive while taking letrozole (Femara) has been reported to be as high as 10%. Triplets may occur as frequently as 1 in 400 births, and quadruplets in 1 in 800 births." See, nothing to worry about. HA!
