A Night Out

Today my dear friend Samantha married the man of her dreams. You may remember from previous posts that she is Mama to Maggie & Miles whom we often "bully-sit" for:

The man she married is also one of the Cardiologist's I work with. It was a beautiful reception held at The Carriage Club on the Plaza & the bride of course looked absolutely stunning! 

The food was dee-lish & the best part of any wedding - the cake - was amazing! Unfortunately, I didn't get a picture of it since I had my hands full with Mason :( However, I was very happy to see that the servings of cake were huge AND there was plenty of it to go around so yes, I did have a piece of vanilla & also ate a piece of chocolate cake as well :) I got no shame! Besides, with breastfeeding they say to consume an additional 500 calories daily so I just considered it my extra calories!!

Since the whole family got dressed up for the occasion, thought we best get a family photo! Too bad little stinker's hands were in his mouth :(

Oh & I have decided that I am going to go into business in the future making dressy apparel for a 0-3 mos old. I searched for 2 weeks, went to 7 different children's stores & do you know that I could not find an affordable, seasonal pair of dressy pants or even a little suit in a size 3 mos for Mason to wear to this wedding? I barely was able to find a dressy shirt for him to wear! Needless to say it was quite frustrating. So, as you can see, we opted for a pair of jeans & a button-down shirt - yeah, we are classy like that but hey, that is all we had to work with. We have a wedding at the end of June to attend also & he will be 6 mos old by then. You can bet I have already started to shop for his outfit!

We had a great time, enjoyed great food & I even got to see my dear friend Stephanie! She worked with me at the hospital & I actually trained her - then a year later she up & left me :( Her husband accepted a job in Dallas that he couldn't refuse so she had to move & was not real happy about it. I was so glad to get to see her & spend some time catching up! Steph is also a K-State fan so I had to tease her about our matching belt's - they are KU colors :)

It was so nice to be able to get dressed up with the hubby & have a night out - as a family of three :)
