Adventures in Motherhood



This weekend I had the pleasure to spend some much needed time with my favorite little girl Lauren aka Lolo :)

She's a special little person to me. I've nannied her since she was 6 months old and today she's 5! Needless to say, I consider her my little girl! Love her to pieces! I do have to say though that since switching career paths, I've quickly forgotten how exhausting children are haha in a good way: the high energy, neediness, emotions run high, etc. Almost reminds me of certain adults but I won't go into that :)

Friday night, I wasn't much fun since I had to cover a social event but I promised Saturday would be a fun-filled day.

As promised, we journeyed up to the Promenade and found ourselves in the land of fluff and stuff at Build-A-Bear Workshop. Lauren picked the perfect bunny bear (bear with bunny ears) that was quite colorful, tri-colored to be correct-pastels of yellow, purple, pink and blue. Her name is Emily and she has a beautiful gown, bow, and black patten leather pumps. That night we ventured to the movies and enjoyed Mirror Mirror and followed up with a delicious bowl of of ice cream.

Today was more laid back: lunch at Mojitos and then a drive over to my new place to meet my roommate's new puppy Lucy, the cream French bulldog....now just anticipating the arrival of the parentals :)

Of course, there were some tears shed, voices raised, feelings hurt, orders made, and lots and lots of cleaning. As I texted her parents, "I forget how destructive a 5 year old can be."Oh, silly me. I forgot to mention there were three dogs in the mix: Lexy and Lilly the yorkies and my furry monster Rocco Daily :)

All in all, a great weekend! I have many of pics to remember it by and memories to last a life time! I'm very blessed to have a person in my life that blesses me with a simple flash of a smile and a giggle to follow. I love you Lauren! Elizabeth, all the days of my life and yours!
