fallon's rock star birthday party

Fallon's 5th birthday party will be a slumber party at Bellagio. She requested a "Rock Star" theme and invited her girlfriends for a day of rockin' out and jumping on the bed! It is the same room Jon and I had when we got married! It has a centered view of the fountains :)

aspen's 2nd birthday invitation

We decided to have separate birthday parties for the girls. Aspen's birthday party is this Saturday at our house.

aspen is out of diapers before her 2nd birthday!

Jon decided to try Aspen out in her potty about a month ago. She took a liking to sitting on it and after a few tries and watching big sis go, she learned that it looked fun. The past 2 weeks she has fully grasped the idea and had success everyday with only a few accidents. She is now wearing Fallon's underwear. Hooray! No diapers!

fallon starts kindergarten

It was Fallon's first day at St. Elizabeth today. I did not cry, but actually did in the car upon hearing another mom crying. I was so nervous for her as she was, but she braved through and I am sure she will get used to it more each day. My little baby has reached a new milestone and we could not be prouder.

the killers concert and then some

I love The Killers. They are the combination of bands I loved in the 80s: New Order, Pet Shop Boys, Duran Duran, The Cure and Erasure. I had never seen them in concert since I was either pregnant or nursing everytime they came to town. Jon surprised me and got tickets to The Killers concert who opened The new Joint at Hard Rock hotel. It was one of the best concerts I had been to in a while. Definitely in my top 10. Since I am on the subject, I think back and some of my favorite concerts have been when I was single. It was different going then since I was a club kid and really enjoyed dancing. Music ruled my life (pre-kids). Many of the best concerts are from my youth. Some venues were large, but the small ones were the best. And of course, the friends I went with were bonus. The Killers evokes these times. I have so many memorable ones, but here are my top 16 - where it was and who I went with:
1. DeeLite, Sound Factory, NYC (w/ Jason, Doug)
2. Portishead/Massive Attack, The Wiltern, Los Angeles, CA (w/ Sam)
3. Bjork, Royalty Theater, London (w/ Adele, Lane)
4. No Doubt, Wilson Theater, Fresno, California (w/ Sam, Leigh)
5. Blink 182, Electric Factory, Philadelphia, PA (w/ Jenk, Phil, Sara, Tish & Moni)
6. Everything But the Girl, 9:30 Club, Washington, DC (w/ Jenk, Phil, Sara, Tish & Moni)
7. Pet Shop Boys, Astoria, London, England (w/ Adele, Lane, Felicia)
8. Lauryn Hill, 9:30 Club, Washington DC (w/ Phil, Sara, Tish & Moni)
9. Jane's Addiction, Newport, Columbus, OH (w/ Patrick & co.)
10. The Killers, The Joint, Las Vegas, NV (w/ Jon)
11. Madonna, Wembley Stadium, England (w/ Kiersten)
12. U2, Ohio Stadium, Columbus, Ohio (w/ Melissa)

happy 25th birthday mac!

I got my first Apple, a Mac II in 1988. It was almost $3000! Crazy, but I tell you what - they had me at hello. I have bought a new one every 4 years and I am still a very happy Apple addict. Currently on my 6th Mac, 4 ipods, 2 iPhones later and a click away from apple tv, I am probably going to get the kids their first Mac. Due to this addiction, I am drowning in Apple apps, iTunes, iDVD, design programs, internet time, blogging, etc. (I have not yet given into the iPad - still waiting for next gen when they put the CAMERA in it and approve Flash). My mom asks me why I don't have time to cook dinner EVERY night. It's the Apple's fault. Happy Birthday Apple and still going strong!
