Hello Officer...

So last night I went with my friend Sharon to Goodwill in hopes to find a left handed glove. 
We ended up joining a city league thanks to an invite from another mom we met at the pool while swimming with our girls. One problem was that I had zero equipment for it. .. so to Goodwill it was.

45 minutes (and this gem) later..



 we walked out with smiles on our faces, and no glove in hand.
Sharon had outdoor play mats for Amilia in her hand, and I had a brand spankin' new glider chair in mine. I'm embarrassed and SHOCKED to confess that my initial thought once buying it was, 
"YES! My second child is going to be a breeze!" 

As we loaded it into the car I'm 95% sure I set my wallet onto of the car in order to free up a hand to help guide the chair into the back seat. 

Next stop was Play it again sports. Because we still needed to find a glove.
It was closed. But right across the street was a Sonic Drive-In. Cha-Ching!

and when it was time to pay, I remembered. 
MY WALLET! ugh...
Once Sharon paid for our food we retraced our route and found nothing! SO SAD.

I got home and immediately canceled all of my cards. (You can imagine Chris was displeased, but not surprised by the news) heh.
 In the morning I called to make a police report and was told they'd have a sheriff dispatched to come speak with me. 

"Wait, what?! Like you're going to have someone come to my house?!"
"Yes, ma'am to help assess the situation."
"oh okay..."

I was shocked. Orange County sure does takes care of its residents. 

5 minutes later I had a Sheriff standing in our apartment questioning me on my whereabouts last night. 
Never expected that to happen this year! 
She was super nice and looked into the surrounding city departments to see if any wallet was reported as found. No such luck. She left me with a reference number of my report and a pamphlet on identity left. Which didn't quite leave me with a sense of relief, but at least I'll be informed about it, if ever I do have to deal with it. (knock on wood)

I hope I've learned my lesson to NEVER, never ever set my personal belongings down where they could be left behind. It's not worth it. 

(Have I ever mentioned my 2 month old brand new video camera I was given for my birthday/Christmas gift I set down on a table so I could eat a hotdog...? yeah, that's long gone, too)
NOT WORTH IT!

So please. Do yourself a favor and keep your purse on your shoulder, and all your goods inside of it! 
I can only hope my wallet turns up sooner than later, cause I'd really like to use my Disneyland Annual Pass again. ;)

Girls Night

Believe it or not, but I have finally started to solidify relationships within our ward here in Aliso Viejo. Thank goodness
 And a major plus to it, is that they've got BABIES. Babies the same age as Hattie!
It's been so nice to have play dates with friends and get out of the house for a trip to the park or a walk around the block throughout the week. 

With that said;
Last night a group of us girls went out to the movies to see Safe Haven 
(which I still have mixed feelings about as far as whether or not I liked it) 
From the movies we went and grabbed yogurt from yogurtland and closed out the place. Apparently we still weren't ready to call it quits so over to the one fast food restaurant that stayed open 24 hours...
Del Taco.
I ordered a bean and cheese burrito to help justify our stay and I regretted it after my first bite. 
We chatted about every single stereotypical topic of conversation young married women talk about and had a blast doing it. 
We finally headed home after a text from one of the girls husband.
It read: "Really?!"
Hahah. Yeah. It was 1am on a Monday night. 
We're pretty wild! 


(PS. It's been a while since I've blogged. I can tell I'm a bit rusty, so forgive me)

Cyberspace

 We're finally in it! 

After two years of living without it, I decided to make it a new years resolution to have WiFi (and cable) in our apartment. 

It's so nice. 

Although I can already feel the difference of how our time is spent. 

After dinner prep, sitting around the table enjoying it, and finally washing all the dishes afterwards, we were able to kick our feet up with a box of girl scout cookies and watch (Im)practical Jokers. In which we laughed our pants off the whole time! Including Hattie. Whenever we laughed she decided she should too. 
SO CUTE!

Never seen the show?! You're missing out! It does have a few over the top pranks but over all, please just make sure you've emptied your bladder before tuning in.  

And with that said, be sure to check in on our blog sooner than later. 
I have a feeling our entries will be sky rocketing compared to the year past.
