First, meet my sister Beth, her husband Aaron, and their kids (from left) Tatum, Jack, Claire & Luke. If you haven't met Beth let me just tell you she's THE sweetest, BEAUTIFUL, most down to earth, g e n e r o u s, and loving person you will ever meet. Besides being an amazing mom to these four kiddies, an awesome wifey, a loving & supportive friend, a phenomenal makeup artist, she is also such a thoughtful, loyal, and wonderful sister.
Let me explain...
First, (er second) meet Jack:
Jack is Beth's 3rd youngest and he's a big 3 year old. He spent the night with us this week and here he's giving me his best "CHEESE" smile! I absolutely love & adore this kid. We had such a blast with him.
When Beth dropped him off, she surprised me with my FAVORITE meal ever:
{ Salem Roll }
Deep fried sushi with delicious barbecue and some kind of chipotle sauce drizzled all over it. She also brought me all of these:
These are two bins full of tiny little boy clothes that my nephews have outgrown (sad!).
Keep in mind, this is in addition to the car loads of other toys/clothes she's already passed down. And for the record, no, I'm not expecting! Just collecting things for when that day comes!
Here are a couple more pics of Jack:
Here he's playing Foosball with his Uncle Adam.
Here he's watching Despicable Me {cute movie!} with Adam & me.
Here he's enjoying a sucker in the bath {works great, no sticky mess!} playing with his new cars he picked out!
I was so sad when Jack Jack {our nickname for him} had to leave. We don't get to have our nieces & nephews one-on-one very often, so I love it when we do! When Beth came to pick Jack Jack up, she brought in three bags with presents "just because." Can you believe her?! I can't! I told her she's crazy. Here's what was in those three bags:
She happened to see my blog entry about my wishlist
{here}.
Within 5 minutes of reading it, she had already found half the things at thrift stores, or seen things on Craigslist, etc. She's THE BEST bargain shopper.
Anyways, as if the bins of kids clothes, and delicious meal weren't enough, the stinker went and bought this darling denim jacket from Gap, adorable blazer from Nordstrom, and super cute Jessica Simpson cat eye glasses. She spoiled me. For no reason.
Who is this girl?! Best part? She got the jacket at Value Village (thrift store), the blazer from St. Vincents (thrift store) and the glasses at Ross Dress for Less.
Beth, you're crazy & I love you!
Thank you, thank you, THANK YOU!!!
PS. Bring Jack Jack over for another slumber party & please have more kids. Please?
