Today is the 10 year Anniversary of my Mom's passing. It just doesn't seem like it's been 10 years, I remember exactly what I was doing when I got the call from Veta that she had had a heart attack and was in the hospital - it seems like it was just yesterday. I really wish she could meet David but I know she is watching over him. I Love and Miss you Mom like no body's business.

This morning I went and had a manicure and pedicure at a Day Spa from a gift certificate that Anthony and David had given me for Mother's Day. It was really nice be pampered and taken care of and if I could afford their prices I'd go back once a month! I also have a gift certificate for the same place for a Hot Lava Rock Massage and ironically I get that on my mom's birthday, August 9th - the weekend after we get back from vacation, so I'm sure I'll really need it. While I was being pampered, Anthony took David to Home Depot to get some filters for the A/C. Anthony thinks the reason he hasn't been able to get over his cold is because the filters need to be changed, maybe that might help my allergies as well! My back is still itching like crazy, but there is no rash; I think it's just from the allergy shots but in any case it's about to drive me nuts.

Today was also Aiden's 1st Birthday, so we went to his party at 2pm. We were running late though because we couldn't get David to take a nap. Mr. Cranky Pants just wanted to play and fuss. Aiden is Brooke and Mark's son, Brooke is the daughter of my boss Becky. It was really hot and humid out today, so it's a good thing I've been wearing my hair curly lately. I've mainly been wearing it curly because I've been too lazy to blow it dry and flat iron it in the mornings and besides, it's been so humid lately that most the time you can't I've don't anything with my hair. I haven't worn my hair curly in a VERY long time, I have to get used to it again, it's a different look for me - guess if I wear it this way again, I'll have to grown my hair long again.

Before the birthday party we tried to get David to take nap but he would have not parts of it. I even tried laying down with him in the bed; I almost fell asleep but he just wanted to play. I pulled out his big boy crayons and paper and let him play. In the video, he has a balloon tied to his wrist (we bought it for Aiden and David just didn't want to let it go).

It's after midnight and David is back to sleep, finally. After the party we went up to the mall to return some pants I had bought, needed a size smaller :). We also wanted to see if we could find a belt for David because of of his shorts/pants are still a little big and he needs a belt to hold them up LOL. Found a nice one at Baby Gap, wasn't a bad price either. David slept until about 9pm and woke up hungry, so I feed him but he pretty much fell asleep in the middle of eating. He slept for about another hour and woke up crying and it took about 1 1/2 to get him to fall back asleep. Hopefully he'll sleep through the night now as he did drink a cup of milk.

I almost forgot, I talked to my sister-in-law the other day, Alana, and looks like my nephew Bob (I like to still call him Bobby) will be getting married sometime in the beginning of 2009! Looking forward to making another trip down to FL for the wedding! Congratulations Bobby!
