Um, yeah.

Aubrey's second birthday is quickly approaching. Outta nowhere my baby is going to be two already. Wow. I.can't.believe.it. Both of my children's birthdays are in October and I plan to have two separate parties for them. Aubs is October 2nd and J's is October 28th. I would hate a combined birthday and one day I don't want my kids to complain saying they had to SHARE birthdays.

Jaden wants Star Wars, no problemo. Done. I was going to to a Lady Bug themed party for Aubrey and then she discovered Barney. My dear husband puts it ON Demand for her from our tv and she has fallen in love with it. I'm so not kidding, anytime the tv goes on she thinks we are putting it on for her and says "BAHNEY BAHNEY." She likes to sing the I love you song and dance around, it's cute. I thought, what the heck, let's do a Barney Themed Party for her, that should be easy enough, right?

It didn't dawn on me that the damn Dino is almost 20 years old and maybe I might encounter a problem to find Barney party supplies locally. I checked EVERYWHERE in my town and had family check in Modesto and Stockton. NADA. ZIP. ZILTCH. There has to be some on the Internets, right? I Googled it and after 45 pages of searching, I can only find cups and thank you cards. WTF? The only places that seem to have the crap is in New Zealand and Christina is not paying for that kinda shipping. Hell to the no.

So the Purple Bastard has been eluding me. I would totally kick his purple behind if I could find him right now.



Apparently someone already go to him............


We are still moving forward with the BAHNEY party and I am basing it more on color and pattern. Mixed with a bit of craftyness from me, it will be barneyfied. I'll be making some cardboard cut out barneys and scanning a Barney DVD to make invites. It will all work out, it's all good in the neighborhood!


When I was at Party City searching for Aubrey's stuff I came across this sahweet deal.





Star Wars Lego Pens!!! I got them for 50 cents each on clearance!! I purchased 20...... Awesome little goodies to put in the party gift bags! Whooooooooooooooot!

the following is just because:


Drag Robward says "don't hate me because I'm beautiful."

I'm both fascinated and disgusted by it at the same time by it. My eyes are burning a bit from it.

PS TRUE BLOOD FANS......it just hit the internet that True Blood onscreen couple Anna Paquin and Stephen Moyer who play Sookie and her VBF, Bill are engaged IRL. I wonder if Robsten will do the same one day??? hmmmmmmmmmmmmm.

Loving the awesome Springtime colors and cute designs Veronica and Albert have come up with this time around. This silly little picture of me and my daughter was taken from one of those token taking machines that take your picture and the computer "draws" it out on paper. You know the the ones they have at Chuck E. Cheese type of places? Of all the pictures I have, this has got to be one of my favorite ones I have of me and my baby girl when she was about one and a half. A little closer. loving the cluster above the picture.

Where's that baby, huh?

Lot's of emails waiting for me in my inbox that had not been checked in almost one month in a half, (Gasp!!!!) that had been asking if I had given birth yet or if I was going on a 2 year long pregnancy. Even though it seemed that way, either that or I was having a 20 lb baby (ouch..or a 12 lb'er like my local sb friend!)....anywhoo..... Aubrielle Rose Padilla came into this world a whole 2 weeks early, much to my surprise, because I was expecting her around the 14th!... she weighed a hefty 7.2 lbs (I'm kidding, since J was a 9 lber!!) and was a full 20 inches long. She's got all 10 fingers and toes, a full head of dark hair, and she's Jaden's mini me, just a smaller version of him, but with girl parts. lol Hard delivery, long delivery, it seriously dropped kicked me on my caboose. Aubrielle had a bad case of jaundace that we had to address with daily trips to the hopspital but I'm happy to report that she's much better now. I'm sorry this post dos
