It was my birthday on Friday, Daddy B brought me home flowers and cards from him and C Bear. He picked them all out and they were in our wedding colors; pink, green and orange. So thoughtful! He also brought home steaks and some different pasta salads. Everything was delicious!
For my birthday lunch at my parent's house we had panini's. My Mom lays out a bunch of different lunch meat, veggies and cheese and then we make our own sami's.
My Mom also made some cream cheese roll-ups and a few of you asked for the recipe. She made two different types.
taco cream cheese roll-ups:
8 ounce pack of cream cheese
1/2 cup of sour cream
1 package of taco seasons
1 small can of chopped black olives
1 cup of mexi-shredded cheese
mix all ingredients together, smooth over a softshell and roll it up, stick them in the freezer for 10 minutes, take out and cut up. Sticking them in the freezer makes it much easier to cut them up. You could also add jalapenos if you wanted extra heat.
cream cheese veggie roll-ups:
8 ounce pack of cream cheese
1/2 cup of sour cream
bell peppers, all colors (my mom used yellow, orange, red and green)
a dash of onion powder and garlic powder
mix all ingredients together, smooth over a softshell and roll it up, stick them in the freezer for 10 minutes, take out and cut up. Sticking them in the freezer makes it much easier to cut them up.
We also had an amazing turtle pie!
Cullen is so quick, I can't seem to turn my back for a second....
We have been playing outside a lot and Cullen throws an all out fit when we come in almost every.single.time. Sometimes when we are outside he just takes off running down the sidewalk as if he is running away from home already ;)
Cullen and I went to the mall on saturday, I hadn't been FOREVER. I think since we moved so that was almost 4 months ago! I had items to exchange for Cullen and since back to school sales are in full force we stocked up on ALL of this loot! If I told you the teeny tiny amount of money I spent that day you would probably all not like me ;) I know daddyB was very impressed. We went to all our favorite stores, children's place for stretchies, hanna andersson for soft comfy clothes and pj's, carters for onesies, socks, and a few solid color pants and zip up's for fall, and of course to gymboree for all those cute airplane clothes, some jeans and shoes.
I decided to buy some gold jewelry, it was a first for me. I owned nothing in gold! I have to say I love my new purchases! :) all from express.
Cullen has been extra cuddly lately so of course I take full advantage! In that bottom pic he was laying on my lap, such a sweet boy.
I finally found a snack container that Cullen can not get open! I have bought other snack containers for him but he always bites the lids off and then just dumps everything out. he can't get this one open and to be honest, either can I! haha!
Now cullen can snack on his snacks wherever he pleases or snack on hockey sticks and spatulas. 
sweetest little sleeper ever!
I love that he still sleeps like he did when he was a tiny baby...
Today we have a jam packed day, including Cullen's 15 month appt (not looking forward to shots) & I should actually probably be in the shower right now. I will have a giveaway up tomorrow for more Earth's Best goodies AND I will pick winners tonight for my last two giveaways, I've just been too busy to tend to everything.

You hit the motherload shopping girl!!
Whoever says boy clothes aren't as cute as girl clothes obviously hasn't seen Cullen's closet! Too cute mama!
Dang! You did get a bunch of good stuff! Good for you girl! He's too cute!
I would like to know how you end up spending so little. We don't even have a Hanna Anderson store, so the items they carry in Nordstrom are expensive! With two boys, we need to save every chance we get.
I have got to get that snack container. LOVE IT!
