Happy Thanksgiving!!

Scott and I, as per tradition split our day in two and hung out with my family in the afternoon, and Scott's family in the evening. It was a perfect day, and we were perfectly stuffed at the end of it. Also, deliriously tired, (please see the photo of us giggling like schoolgirls below).


First time at Disneyland!!





For Miss B, that is. mi amore and I took our little darling to Disneyland for the first time this week. Even though she slept for most of the time, she was able to wake up long enough to enjoy It's a Small World. I told Scott that the ride was probably like a large mobile for her. Though I think we probably had a better time than her, it felt really amazing to take her there for the first time.

Baby Shower and Book Club





This month has been quite busy for our little family. My dear friend Caroline is expecting her little boy, Noah in January and so B and I attended her baby shower last Saturday. It was fun to hang out with girls from our small group and eat, and celebrate that sweet baby boy coming into the world. Then on Monday, I hosted book club at our house. It was a yummy night, and we all ate way too much! We discussed our previous book- Love Walked In, and chose our new book- Waiter Rant. I am so glad that I am a part of this group, so I have others to share my nerdiness with.

Dinner with the Buddies




Scott and his friends PJ and Jeff arranged for the three of our families to get together and have dinner at the Mitchells house with their cute twin boys!! I was so impressed at our boys' organizational skills. Normally it's us girls that have to put everything together. Miss B loved being with the other babies, and even held hands with Ben for a while. She tried to hold hands with Ethan, but he was very busy staring to his left. All in all it was a great evening. Even Julie and I got to have fun- in between feeding that is. I can't imagine trying to feed two boys!!! Yikes.

Thanksgiving Celebration

For my school's Thanksgiving Celebration, I brought in an edible craft. Oreo turkeys!! Mostly so I could devour one afterwards. Also with jr. highers, you don't want to do anything that is too lame, or they won't want to participate. Let's not forget how cool they are. But something they can eat after? This is always a winner.

Dane Cook at the Laugh Factory!!




My lover and I ADORE going to comedy clubs, and so when Dane Cook was at the Laugh Factory in Long Beach, we jumped at the chance to go. My good friends Megan and Jenna came as well and it was so much fun!! Dane was hilarious and it was good to go out again!! Brinkley was just an angel for her Mimi, and so it makes it easy to go out when you don't feel like they are so miserable without you!! We were more than happy to pick her up at the end of the night though.

lunch with old friends



Our good friend Dana was in town with her hubby and her darling daughter Aubree. We were able to meet up with them and also our friends Brad and Amy for lunch. Dana has a one year old, I have a newborn and Amy is six months pregnant!! It was such a good time to catch up and Scott and I really enjoyed seeing them.

Congrats New Sarks!!





My friend whom I've known FOREVER, Angelina got married a few weeks ago, and had a gorgeous wedding at the Dove Canyon Country Club. My parents also were there and it was a blast! Us Cheos of course tore up the dance floor all night. Even Miss B had a great time dancing with mommy and daddy. She absolutely loved the music, and no one could believe how adorable she was on the dance floor!!

Now Just the BABY





Here are some precious pictures that we've taken of our little angel. I can't say it enough- we love her so much!

Quick Update- lots of friends!!









Sorry everyone for lagging on the blog. It's not that I have been too tired to blog, it's that I've been too BUSY! We have had so many visitors that we have not had a night off! It began in the hospital, where we had upwards of 75 visitors, and has been nonstop since. We so appreciate all of the love and meals and attention. There have been nights where 4 meals are brought over, which is great for the next days, because it means I don't have to cook AT ALL. We are just having so much fun with our sweet little girl. She is such a mellow little baby and just lets people hold her and love her. Scott and I can't get enough of her. She loves to cuddle and watch her mommy and daddy. We are so blessed and we just are in baby heaven! Here are just a few of the people that have come to visit... no lie though there have been at least 10 a day!!
