CuPCaKe OvErLoAd!

Sunday my family and I (I think I was the most excited) decided we were going to attend the Cupcake Camp OC event in Irvine.

At the last minute my daughter decided to go swimming at her friends house so I thought ok maybe we won't go and catch up on our sleep! No Way! I can never turn down a good cupcake! So my husband and I decided to go without my daughter (even though I knew she would be mad).

So we set off and got there before the event started at 3pm and first there was NO parking at the hotel. Then the line to get into the event was huge. Lucky for us when you had a stroller you had to take the elevator instead of the stairs like the majority of people and we managed to get in right away and had to stand in no line.

You paid $10 to get in(went to a good charity) and got three raffle tickets that got you gourmet cupcakes and then you could have unlimited amateur cupcakes.


This place was packed! We should not have brought the stroller! Even though it got us to the front of the line!

Here are some images of some amazing cupcakes...






YES YOU ARE READING THAT RIGHT...CHICKEN AND WAFFLES!

The cupcake displays were great


Even my husband was getting into it

Then we found the cupcake of all cupcakes. I mean this was the best cupcake I have ever tasted. Made by a company called My Delight Cup Cakery. It is called the breakfast cucpake.

Yes that is bacon on this cupcake. Read the ingredients. This was the best. My husband was nice enough to share...



One of my favorites was a cupcake made by a amateur. It was a peanut butter and jelly cupcake. It had strawberry jelly inside the cupcake when you bit into it. OMG!!


We had a good time. it was very crowded and next year should be at a bigger venue and they surely got the crowd. People came in with Tupperware to take home their cupcakes. We were not prepared.

But I can never turn down the opportunity to sample cupcakes!

Welcome to my world!

Saturday Night with the Family!

Saturday morning we woke up and were very excited to being going to a Cupcake Camp OC event(more info to come). Till I realized that the event was not Saturday but actually Sunday. My brain just does not work right lately.

So my husband and I were sitting at the dinning room table eating breakfast when we decided we were going to go to San Diego for the day. After looking up the city and seeing what there was to do besides the zoo and sea world, we decided that it was not the best place to take the kids for the day and they they would be bored.

So after awhile we decided to take my daughter and my nephew to the Santa Monica Pier


But first we had to make a pit stop at grandma and grandpa since they live out that way and have dinner together so they can see their grand babies.

Then we headed off for a fun night (for the kids that is)...


The kids got on the rides right away and were having a blast...


My daughter had such a good time!

Then she saw this stuffed toy she has been wanting since we went to the Orange County Fair.
So she enlisted her father to win her and her cousin a Domo doll.

I am pleased to say it only required two plays and $6.00. Good Job babe!
toward the end of the night everyone was getting tired...

The funnest thing was when my son showed my husband how he felt about being there and not being able to ride any of the rides.

CLASSIC!

All in all we had a great time!

Date Night!

This Friday my husband was in a amazing mood! He normally is always in a good mood but today was unlike any other.

First he called me at his lunch break and said he was buying us this high tech camera that I have been wanting for a long time. I call it the paparazzi camera as it is not a digital camera but one that is used by the paparazzi when they get your favorite celebrity shot. I told him not to as it was very expensive but he did it anyway.

Then a couple hours later he called to say that he wanted to take me on a date night tonight and to see if my mom could watch my daughter and the baby. Of course my mother jumped on the opportunity to watch the kids.

My husband came home and we got ready to head off on our date night to the Melting Pot.

We have never been there before and we were very excited as we had heard great things. We just honestly could never get up the urge to spend over $100 on dinner for the two of us.

We got there and had the most amazing dinner...




We had great conversation and great food. And I have to say was well worth the $100 for great food and a great night with my husband.

With that being said we could have gone out after but just could not wait to get back to our little ones.

Thanks Honey for a Great Night!

First Public Urination!

Yesterday we decided to take my daughter to our local indoor bounce house for their weekly "Glow Night". This is a indoor bounce house were they turn off all the lights give the kids a ton of glow sticks and turn on blacklights and loud music. My daughter LOVED IT!!!!! $8.00 spent wisely!

My husband and I decided to sit out in the waiting room because we had the baby with us. We sat out in the waiting room and talked. Then the baby got hungry so we feed him. I decided I would change him since it had been a little bit since I had changed his diaper. Changed his diaper and handed him to my husband. All the sudden the baby made a loud grunt and then we smelled it. I HAD JUST CHANGED HIM MINUTE AGO!!!!

So my husband said I will do it. So we get out another diaper and wipes and my husband goes in for the kill. He cleans all the poop up and then all the sudden my little peanuts starts peeing everywhere. And when I say everywhere I mean everywhere.
On me, my husband, himself and even the wall next to him. He is looking up at his dad like "OH yeah that feels nice". Until it gets on his face and then he makes the weird look like "What the hell was that".

My husband and I are cracking up at the big puddle he has created on the floor (which dripped down the wall into a massive puddle)See picture.....

We immediately start to look around at who has seen my son in all his glory and realize no ones know what happened. We start to clean up the evidence but not before my husband whipped out his camera to take a picture of his sons first public urination. I say first because I have a feeling somehow that this will not be his last.

Welcome To My World!

Three Weeks!

OMG! Where did the time go. I can't believe that my little guy is three weeks old today.

I also can not believe how much he has gone through in the short amount of time he has been alive(hospital scare, uv light, losing weight, etc).

He is a fighter just like the rest of my little ones.

I told my husband that our kids all have been early, all had some MINOR difficulties because of being early but were all made with .....

Yes those are my little boys feet at 11 days old with mine and my husbands wedding rings on his big toe. Cute right!

Happy Three Week Birthday Tai!

First day without my other half!

So yesterday was my first day without my other half. My husband has been home with me for almost three weeks. And I have been spoiled for three weeks. But yesterday that all ended for me when the alarm went off at 5:30 in the morning. :(

He was originally supposed to go back to work this Monday but for anyone that reads this blog know that we had a little scare on Friday's 2 weeks check up for my son. This required us to go back in on Monday to see if he had gained weight and also the jaundice had gone away.

This weekend my little guy spent most of his weekend on his uv light...


And I am proud to say that he gained 3 oz's and also has no trace of jaundice. Thank you GOD!

I have to say that my son loved sleeping on his billie blanket (UV LIGHT). And I am sad to see it go as I think it helped him sleep at night. Look how relaxed he is...


So since all is well with my son my husband went back to work.

I immediately missed him after he left for the day and wished he would come back. The day was forever long but he called many times and texted to check on everyone. My son is a very easy going baby and really only cries to eat (if you even call it a cry)so the day was really easy. Although I did notice that I am very tired today for whatever reason.

When he did come home he immediately went for the baby and about 15 minutes later gave me a kiss hello! Go figure!

Today was easy also since my son sleeps and majority of the time and my daughter has been outside playing with our neighbor. Gotta love the neighborhood kids that keep my daughter busy.

Welcome to my world!

Newest Blogger of the Family

For anyone who reads my blog you know that my best friend/husband really is a great father and a amazing husband(and I am not the only one that thinks so).

So for awhile he pushed me to share my crazy life with everyone out in cyber world and start a blog. At the time I thought...NO WAY. That is just one more thing I have to add to my collection of things on my daily to do list. Then I though what the hell....

Life With My Little Peanuts was born!!!!!

I am pleased to say that this morning my husband woke up with a epiphany to join me in the blogging world and start his own blog. I love to see him so passionate, determined, excited about doing something other then making gorgeous babies ;)

So he set off this morning on creating his Rocking Dad Blog

http://rockingdad.blogspot.com/

He did decide to squeeze in a little cat nap in between working on it to take a little nap with our newest addition Tai

Don't they look alike?

Join him in his adventures of being a edgy, funny, rocker dad and husband. And get the other side to all of my crazy stories.

Good Luck Honey...and before you hit publish i must approve of everything you write about me! J/K
