Wouldn't you like to know...

This weekend was my bf's birthday. We went to the Dallas Aquarium with Bri and enjoyed spending the day together with the monkeys, sloths, fish, penguins, etc. Bri had alot of fun and Rob enjoyed it as well. I will post pictures as soon as I remember to bring my camera too work! Last night we had a little family dinner at Rob's Dad's house and we were talking about how men never grow up.

Anyways, we didn't talk much about her trip but I think she was happy to be home. Her grandmother had given her a journal to write in to tell us what she was doing since it's difficult to talk on the phone when she's with her otherside of the family. I had fun reading through it. She called it, "Stinky's J"... short for "Stinky's Journal". Stinky is the nickname my brother and I gave her because when she was a baby she had massive blowouts in her diaper at the most awkward times... ie. church. She ruined multiple outfits. I still call her Stinky and she's 8. Sometimes when she's upset she'll tell me, "Don't ...
