We had the greatest day today and I am so incredibly excited about it. Last week at dance class a few of the ladies and I started talking about story times at some of the local libraries and which ones we liked better then the others. Well that spured my thought and interest to get Breanna attending storytime once again. So as we walked in this morning to her scheduled storytime class we were so happy to realize that we recognized a few familiar faces. They were some of Breanna's dance class friends and of course their Mom's. We were both so excited. If it would have been appropriate I think that I would have jumped for joy. But I had to contain my joy and just flash them a big smile. Breanna was soooo happy. But being as grown up as she is, in such an adult manner she went and grabbed her carpet square and sat down very matter of fact next to her friend Elizabeth. Then she reached over and gave her a HUGE hug and told her how excited she was that she was there too. She then stood up and hugged her other two friends Anique and Chloe. We laughed, played and listened through out storytime and then afterwards realized that it was time to say goodbye. Breanna started to get sad but then Elizabeth's Mom came up and asked if we would like to continue the fun with them at the park. Today has been absolutely gorgeous so I definitely didn't object to having some fun in the sun. The girls played and played and had the best of time together. I was able to visit with the Moms and have a little bit of adult time which was SO nice. The ladies were very nice, around my age, and have similar interests. Before we left Breanna had been invited to a special Halloween activity in one of the girls neighborhoods this coming Saturday and Charlotte the Mom and I have planned some other fun activities to do together as the weather starts to get colder. I absolutely love meeting new people. It can be harder then you think ESPECIALLY WHEN YOUR A STAY AT HOME MOM. :o) So thank goodness for gorgeous weather today, an outgoing daughter and very nice welcoming people.
Adding on to my fun day today, Breanna has filled it with laughter. After we got home I turned on the Ellen Show so that I could enjoy some laughs for a few minutes. Breanna was content looking at a book, but as soon as she heard Ellen start dancing she immediately jumped up and started dancing right along with her. She was not just moving along with the music, she was really bustin a move. Ellen tends to dance over her coffee table so Brea tried to dance over ours as well. She was absolutely putting her heart and soul into every move that she made and then afterwards fell to the floor and explained how she was "SO EXHAUSTED"... her " MOVES WERE SOOO HARD TODAY!" LOL what a funny little girl.
So then the other thing that I can't help but laugh myself silly with happened a little bit later. I had Carter laying in the hallway upstairs and Breanna picking up her room. All of the sudden I heard Carter squeal in laughter and Breanna laughing hysterically. I came upstairs to find out what was going on. Carter was totally decked out in a big hat, big necklace and princess shoes on his bare feet that when I left had socks and shoes on. She said "Oh what a CUTE baby Mommy. Doesn't he just look adorable!" I am so happy that she loves her brother so much that she even wants him to dress up. But should I be worried of what's to come next??

Oh So Long
Alright alright... I know I'm guilty. It's been a VERY long time since I've updated my blog. Please give me a little bit of a break though, life has been busy. In the last year I have had a baby, been raising my 3 year old, trying to run a household, attend school and still manage to keep at least a bit of my sanity. I would post some new pictures to update you, but my camera broke back in August and I haven't been able to get it repaired. I promise as soon as I get something figured out I'll make sure and post some new pictures.
So like I said earlier, we have a new addition to the Sullivan family. His name is Carter Roy Sullivan. He was born on June 4th, 2008 weighing in at 7 lbs. 6 oz. He was a tiny little guy at first but now at almost 5 months of age has sprouted to a happy rolly polly little fellow. He has become SUCH a flirt. Everyone that looks his way he flashes a gorgeous little smile to and gets them to talk with him. I feel oh so lucky to have such a wonderful & happy little baby boy. God has yet again blessed me with an amazing child.
On to the other things. We are still living in the Seattle area. Chris's job is doing great. He is staying busy as ever (especially with how things have been in the economy as of late). He has been able to turn a bad situation into good for his company and has been recruiting like crazy. This has included a little bit of travel but not too much. I really can't complain. His trek to and from work is however finally starting to get to him. He finally decided to splurge a little bit and put a radio in his truck so now he doesn't have to sit in the car for 2 + hours a day and just think. He can at least listen to some music or a game or two and "relax". No more conversations with himself will definitely relieve some stress. LOL :o)
On to my precious (BIG) girl Breanna. She is 3 & 1/2 now, going on 15. She has become my little fashionista. She is now picking out her own outfits, dressing herself and picking out the hair clippy or hat that she wants to wear each and every day. She has always been an amazing learner but is now speaking spanish here and there and wants to learn sign language. I personally don't know sign so we are going to get some books and dive right in. Chris however knows a bit so he is starting with the basics. I wish that I could have gotten her into preschool this year, but time was snatched away from us and before we knew it school was already a month in. Breanna's biggest news is that she started dance class a few weeks ago. She is now our little ballerina & tap dancer. She is of course doing GREAT in the class. Her teacher has found me on a couple of occassions after class and informed me of how proud she is of Brea and that she is following direction extremely well and catching on very quickly. She's becoming a leader in her class and Mommy honestly couldn't be prouder. I'm so curious what the future holds for my beautiful little girl.Well that's about it for now. Once again please forgive me for not updating my blog in the last year. Life has really taken over. It's been overwhelming at times but nothing that we can't handle. I just always try to remind myself to take time, breath & enjoy what God is handing us. Until next time.........
