Yeah, Yeah, Yeah....

I know I am perhaps the worst blogger ever. I am also pretty positive that if my friend Toni would not have created her own blog and emailed it to me I would not have felt compelled to write today. So lets all (the very few of you that check this thing) thank Toni for becoming a blogger "Thanks Toni!"

So I should probably catch you up on what you have missed in the last month. I still cant believe its been over a month since my last blog. 2010 is definitely not turning into the year of the blog for me. I am going to actually have to put it on my calendar every week so that I manage to at least post a picture or something. I wont even promise a day because that seems to lead to it not happening at all.

So in no specific order, the events that have happened in the last month at our house:

*We have settled more into our house. We got a new dining table and rug for the dining room.

*Rilyn has been MORE then a ham this past month. He still LOVEs Spiderman more than ever. He wanted a Spiderman watch because one of his friends at school had one so he got this...

*He still loves to wear his costumes and pretend to be Spiderman, so he decided to wake me up one morning wearing this...

Our son has the BEST imagination ever. I sit and wonder what he will be when he grows up. He never ceases to AMAZE me. I asked him last week what he wanted to be when he grows up and he told me "a Giraffe". I told you, the boy is simply the best.

*Rilyn wanted his room painted. We decided on blue for the color. I also decided that I wanted to try to do stripes to break up some of the blue. We only ended up doing an accent wall and it turned out great! I am so proud of myself (J helped a little)...

Rilyn LOVED it. He was so excited to have a fancy room. He likes that it is now not all white...

*I was working one Friday and I left my desk to help a resident out. When I got back Toni was holding a box of flowers. I asked her if she wanted me to take them down to one of our residents who ALWAYS gets flowers and she said that they were mine. I opened them and this is what I got... It said " Just because you're beautiful and I love you"

My husband always competes for first place in the husband department. Little does he know that he has already won in my mind. I love J more and more everyday and can't believe that we have managed to keep our sanity throughout the last 9 years with eachother.

* I decided to man up and get a tattoo. I know right...me? Yeah, I didnt think it would ever happen either. I kept talking and talking and talking about how I wanted one but it never happened. I was too chicken to actually do it. Well....I started the talking process again with Toni at work and then came up with a concept (thanks Victoria Beckham) and then actually went and got it done. I wanted to cry but I didnt. It hurt like what I expect hell feels like. And WHY did I decide to get it on what I suspect is one of the most painful areas? I dont know...because I suck thats why. But It turned out beautiful and I am absolutely in LOVE with it and have NO REGRETS. I am glad that I waited to get something that acutally ment something to me and not just a tribal design that I picked out in a look book when I was 17. I ended up gettig this...

Its Rilyns birthday in roman numerals 10.19.2005. I knew that if anyone that was blood/family was going to be inked on my skin permanently it was going to be my mom ( I dont think I could pull that off) or my son (sorry J...but we both know how we feel about significant others on our bodies....its not going to happen). J and I both talked about it and he thought that the wrist was sort of "gangsta" and not a fan, but now that I have had it for a while...he thinks that it suits me and is perfect there. That or he still wants to be married so he is telling me what I want to hear. Just kidding, he really likes it now....I hope.....J?

*So, how did I do? Did I give you enough information on the past month to suffice until next month? Thats if it takes that long to post again? I hope so. Hopefully I will have more to talk about. Here is a little preview of what I know will be post-worthy:

• Rilyn will be going to visit his grandparents sometime this summer for a week. I think he will have an awesome time. He always does.
• Me and two of my girlfriends, Sarah and Toni, will be traveling to Vegas for 5 days in June and we are beyond excited. I know that it will be nothing but trouble and I am all but ready for a vacation.
• July marks 5 years that Jeff and I have been married and we are currently planning a anniversary celebration/BBQ....BYOB please.
• July also marks the start of what I can only assume will be an annual "Man-Cation" that Jeff will be taking with his friends to Lake of the Ozarks. I am definitely positive that there will be drunken days, nights and all that in between as well as a sunburned husband when he returns.

I LOVE SUMMER!

Love The Hagans-
