"F-U-"



When I was pregnant with the little dude (at that time I didn't know I was going to name him Phoenix) we were talking to my Father-in-law's friends, Mark and Randy.  Mark is the flamboyant one and Randy is the serious one in their relationship.  This Marky guy is a character....soooo funny.  Anyway, he was born in the same month as Phoenix would be and was telling me a little bit about our future Leo (their sign).  First off, Marky told me you will have problems with the "F" word.  I was silent, not really knowing what to say then he went on:  "F-U" (I was thinking please don't spell it) then he finished the word with, "N" and laughed frivolously.  Oh my gosh, I was dying of laughter, it was so unexpected.  So Phoenix is our "fun" baby.  He's actually been a difficult baby, cute, but difficult.  I call him Phoenix the fireball.  Those big blue eyes make him look so sweet and innocent.  I always tell people, "good thing he's cute or else......." Anyway, Happy birthday to Phoenix; I can't believe he's one!

Love your blog! I read the whole thing. I feel like I've in a way caught up with your family since I haven't seen you in so long. Your kids are so cute. I can't believe Phoenix is already one. He is a cutie! You guys do tons of fun things. Way to go on the triathlon. I want to do a 5K this year since I've never done a race, maybe someday I'll try a triathlon (probably not though). You're buff woman!

I can not believe he's one Steph! That is crazy! He's so cute. I will always picture him eating dirt at my mom's house- I haven't laughed that hard in years. And that ice cream truck below was hilarious.
