If you read the "comments" in the last post, you may have worried a bit about Alex's and my marriage. Be assured, though, that we did not celebrate our anniversary by sending Alex off with the boys to see a sub-par movie...although, not a bad present on my part: guilt-free time away from crazy family. Instead, thanks to Grandpa Kent and Gammy Dale, we got to spend a couple of no-kids days down in San Diego. Some highlights...
- really nice hotel (US Grant)
- Alex surprised me by arranging to have French tulips (my favorite and the flower of the wedding) and sparkling apple cider waiting for us.
- holding each others' hands while walking around the city...without worrying about a toddler running into the street
- yummy, yummy food--steakhouse, famous breakfast place, and sushi (yea! not pregnant anymore!)
- despite above bullet, did not wear any maternity clothes...yippee! still big, of course, but progress is progress...
- tour of aircraft carrier Midway
- making Alex pose on beds throughout trip/tour...mostly just to embarrass him...see collage.
- not packing a diaper bag or changing a diaper for almost 48 hours (of course, both boys had messy diapers awaiting us when we got back)
- talking and laughing about the boys
- watching Date Night...way funnier when you're parents
- sleeping!! hooray!!
flowers and our view...

You know...if this whole attorney thing doesn't work out I think Alex is a natural bed model. Congrats again on 4 years!
