I took Addison swimming for the first time today!! (Compliments of Amber G.) She absolutely loves the water and I am so glad! I already knew she liked her baths so I figured that swimming would be even more fun for her..and it was. Well, she loved it after she got over being scared of the big inflatable turtle that I bought her. :) Who would have thought going swimming was so expensive though?? I had to buy some Huggies Little Swimmers, some baby sun block-which was for me as well, and that fabulous floatie and it cost me almost $30! But it was worth it just to see her smiling and splashing around.

I also went to see CATS in Dallas yesterday and it was AWESOME! (cameras weren't allowed so sorry, no pics) Yet another great Mother's day gift from Chris! He bought two tickets and let me take whomever I decided and he stayed home with Addison so I could have some "me" time, which I needed. I took Jennifer, my older sis, since she is a theater queen. Did you know that CATS is one of the longest running Broadway shows ever?? I thought it was great but it is no "Phantom of the Opera." I think they should have subtitles somewhere during plays though because there are times I could not for the life of me understand what they were saying or singing.
We also went to Chuy's...which is one of my favorite places to eat in the world! It was sooooooooo good. I got the Chicka-Chicka-boom-boom enchiladas with green chile rice. Yummmmm! To Die For! Then impulsive part of me came out on the way home from Dallas though and I stopped in Mesquite at the mall and got a haircut. A little scary when you don't know your stylist..but Maribele did a great job as far as I can see and it isn't bothering me as bad now. So, as much as I missed my baby girl and my hubby, I did have a good time just getting away.

I am having a hard time keeping my eyes open so I better sign off! I need to get some sleep anyway because my friend Tasha is coming with her baby, Addyson to see me!! ...and I am getting new carpet in the morning!!

Big Smile! (Of course, I had to make sure I had her milk..otherwise she ain't getting in the turtle!)
Amber, AJ, Tassie, & Yasemine
BTW-Addison can say Amber & AJ (Ahhhhhbur & AaaaJe)



Me and Addison


Addison is splashing everybody in this pic.




She was exhausted after swimming. Notice her beloved baby has to be right beside her otherwise she doesn't go to sleep very well.

CATS..cool...I got to see it on Broadway in New York...really wanted to see Miss Saigon, but didn't work out for me. Of course, I also wanted to see Letterman which didn't work out for me either...ha! In September Mama Mia is going to be in Dallas...maybe we could get some girls together to go see it...that's far enough ahead of time to plan??!! Watcha think?
