NO DOUBT!!!!

For Mother's Day this year Jameson got me tickets to see No Doubt which is one of my favorite bands EVER!! We got home from Bear Lake, unpacked and got ready to go again. We didn't anticipate the traffic but we made it in time to hear PARAMORE open for them. They were really good but not as good (to me) as when NO DOUBT came out. Jameson, Gina (through texting) and I were guessing what their opening song would be and Jameson WON.....Spiderwebs. I was really amazed at what a great concert it was and at how great they sounded. It was SO FUN!!

My favorite song of theirs going into the concert: I'm Just a Girl

My newfound favorite: Bathwater

In the middle of the concert Gwen Stefani brought her son on stage and we sang him "Happy Birthday" it was really cute but she kind of teared up and it was a little sad. Here is a link to watch a short clip of it if you want! It was a great concert (thanks Jameson!) and I highly recommend seeing them if they come to your city!!! ;)

My Favorite Things!

I was tagged by one of my friends to do this and have been trying to figure out how to narrow down 5 of my favorite things. I have too many favorite things but, here it goes:

#1: My Kids (Of course!)

Even though they are exhausting most days, I love the stage that my kids are in! They are all still so little and cute and they say the cutest things every day! Jaxon is a really great helper and he loves having his little sister and brother. He is pretty good at including them in the things he's doing. He loves school and is really good at everything he does. Brooklyn likes to stay close to me all day long and cracks me up that she studies everything I do. I have a mole above my top lip and for some reason she is intrigued with it and thinks that she has one too! She always points to her face and says, "Mole-ay". (And for those of you who are laughing right now, yes, it does remind me of that show!!) Gabe is such a happy baby. Jameson and I were talking about how he is so happy and he'll just be sitting there and start dancing. He gets punchy at night when he's tired and he'll just start laughing. He loves his mommy and I love that about him!! When I get him up in the morning he starts shaking he's so happy to see me and when I pick him up he sucks on my face!

#2: TiVo

I was just telling someone the other day that about 7 years ago one of our good friends was telling us about his friend/relative that was working on a new thing called TiVo- a way to pause live t.v.! I remember at the time thinking, "No way!" but fast forward 7 years and it's one of my favorite things! It is so nice to be able to record our shows and watch them when the kids are in bed or whenever we can. Of course, we've become quite the tv junkies because of it!!

#3: Scrapping with IKEA Goddess

For those of you who like to do digital scrapbooking, if you haven't been on this site then you're missing out!! This girls posts new freebies DAILY on her blog that you can download for free. I love, love, love using templates because I don't have time to create my own layouts in Photoshop. You should check her out if you haven't already!!

#4: Cadbury Mini Eggs

Must we really talk about these again?? No. I loved that all of you have a problem with them too! It made me feel so much better! I also wanted to let those of you who wanted to hoard them and sell them to desperate people for profit know that it's too late, someone already thought of it!!! They are being sold already on EBAY!! Which brings me to my next fav...

#5: Ebay

If you can't find it anywhere else, you can find it here. I am an Ebayer. I've found some great deals on Ebay and sold quite a few things on there as well. Some of my favorite things to search for include: vintage toys (it's scary that I've found toys that I played with in the Vintage Toys category!), rugs, kids' room accessories, clothes (for kids and adults), DVD's, crib bedding, books, jewelry, sheet sets, and the list could go on forever!
