Spring Break Part I

We're back! Just drove in last night around 9p.m. So...what'd I miss???

We had a great spring break....it was relaxing, warm, sunny, fun -- full of sand and surf, good food and a king size bed. :)
Get ready for a picture overload.....I've just barely scratched the surface of the 150+ pictures that I took (which actually isn't very many for me) so here's a few from our first full day out on the beach. Please disregard the disparate amount of photos of AJ vs. Owen. AJ is my one and only (semi) willing subject at the moment, so I have quite a few more pictures of him.

Here's AJ, approximately 28 seconds from the time we walked out the hotel doors. He ran his little truck down to the beach and parked himself in a great spot. Hey, a guy's gotta claim some space -- you know how it is.....







Here's me and Owen at the outdoor restaurant/bar place that we ate dinner at. It had a great view of the sea and Owen was in a pretty good mood. I think this is one of my new favorite pictures of me with the O-dawg. Notice the copyright. :)


Ok....I actually didn't take this picture so it was a little underexposed and needed some work, hence the graininess. It's the only picture I have of just me and Steve-o though, so I'm throwing it in here anyway. Please disregard my enormous fat-ness.



Here's the O-dawg and AJ in all their cute stud-liness. :)
My kids are so dang adorable.
And cool.

Which is important.




Grandma and Grandpa

Here's AJ doing his darndest to knock down the umbrella, which by this point I needed to shade my pinking skin. On a side-note, I bought myself a new swim suit - maternity friendly- although not so sexy. Seriously, how can a maternity swim suit be sexy? Ever? It's designed to cover (or not) a massive round belly. But I digress....
NEW swimsuit cuts quite a bit lower than OLD swimsuit, thus revealing some skin that has yet to see the sun this season, resulting in some VERY white skin in the general boobage area. Aforementioned white skin is feeling the rays of the sun somethin' fierce by 4 pm

Me: "AJ - don't shake the umbrella. It'll fall down"
AJ: "yeah - I'm gonna knock it down!"

Me: "No. I need the shade. Mommy's boobies are burning in the sun.
AJ: [evil cackle]

(oh, and notice his huge dierrere -- he had just gone swimming. In his diaper. It's pretty loaded, as you can see).


A kite some people were flying behind us. Cool, huh?
Wish I had got their feet and left a little more room in this picture, but I was comfortably seated on my lounge chair and had no plans of moving back for a better shot.
Us. :)
WHEW! More to come later.....this is just the first set that I've gone through.
Hope you enjoyed.
And I hope everyone else had a great spring break. Or not, if you're not on spring break. And then I hope you had a great week.....in your cubicle. *snicker*

I am SOOOO Green...with envy. Nothing like starting off the week talking about "boobage". Steve and you like to end words in -age, huh? Remember the "fundage" incident? So hilarious. Gerald and I still use that word quite often.

My gums are aching, I walked two miles and pedaled for 20 minutes. My aching gums are making me seriously agitated at my kids...even while walking the track and watching them fight on the gym floor below me, I wanted to strangle them. I cannot decide if that is my body craving hydrocodone or the aching gums or envy knowing you all were sitting on the beach :)

I really should start a blog. :0)

Glad you had a great time. Like your swimsuit. Fat? Where? Why didn't you just wear a bikini--seems to be the thing w/hollywood moms when they're preggo. After all, cool is important.

Good pic Steve-O.

Keep your day job.

Okay, sorry, that was my aching gums talking.

Apparently, I'm a comment hogger. Can you tell how terribly I missed your guys' life in blog?

Take comfort knowing you were burning up at the beach while we poor suckers were freezing our assets in AR. Unseasonable cold froze every blooming thing in my back yard...and covered it in snow.

You look great btw.

i am glad to hear you had a wonderful time! so wish i could be at the beach... oh well :) i did just start tanning yesterday so i'm kind of playing the part of being at the beach... laying in the warmth and getting a tan! although there aren't swimsuits required :)
i am now sitting on the edge of my seat waiting for part two! :)

On the note of "boobage".. Me and the tanning bed had that problem the first five times. Im telling you, the skin that never sees the light is WAY sensitive.

Thank you very much for rubbing the fact that not all of us are spending our spring breaks relaxing at the beach in my face. Lovely!

You look gorgeous in the pictures, so whatever.

amy - a binkini? when I'm pregnant? are you on CRACK? Bikini's may indeed be the "thing" with hollywood moms, but last time I checked, cellulite is not the "thing" with ANYONE. Hollywood or not.
ALTHOUGH....it may be the ONLY time left in my life where the skin covering my stomach will be firm and taunt (albeit from a human growing inside me), so maybe I'll consider it.

em - are you allowed to TAN? Last I knew you (about 10 years ago) you would fry up like bacon in a pan when you saw the light of day. :)

kt-when boobabe is a mere 2 inches from UV-blasting light bulbs.....burning will occur. Try underwear. It's a grand thing.
