21 Months, 2 Surprises and 4 Cakes later...

What a crazy past few weeks the Tiggas family has had! August is just half way over and I feel as though a few months have passed with all of the “stuff” we have done! Let’s start off with the end of July with the Machain/Lewis wedding that was AMAZING! Then on to Matt’s 30th birthday surprise party that was slightly (choice of wording here is underrated) ruined by one of the guests who called our work and left a message as to what, when, why and where Matt’s surprise party was…That would be fine if he wasn’t the one to check the messages on that particular day. Otherwise the party was great, and Matt really enjoyed the company. Immediately following the party we went on a 5 day camping trip up to Mt. Lemmon with a few friends. It was Micah’s first time camping and he did awesome. On to surprise number 2…Matt had arranged that family and friends join us on the mountain for my birthday celebration, which was a great surprise but a little awkward due to the lack of bathing and 24/7 camp fire smell that none of us could smell on ourselves of course. I really didn’t think the smell was that bad until I actually went home and after the 1 hour shower I started a load of laundry and gasped at the odor that came from our camping clothes. My apologies to those who came and hugged me, I commend you for putting up with the stench. We also got our share of cake this year too. Matt got a cake for his birthday, I got 2 over the camping trip period and we got 1 when we came home. I think the cake factories will make a fortune if this trend continues over time. Overall Matt and I had a great few weeks celebrating our birthdays. Micah is now 21 months and GROWING! With a solid 32 lb’s on him and a head that won’t fit in most normal shirts he continues to grow steadily. He has added lots of words to his vocabulary and still loves to repeat EVERYTHING. His favorite things right now include Sponge Bob, Cars (toys, and the movie), Finding Nemo and his Videos (Your baby Can Read)…oh and doing “The People’s Elbow” on Pooh Bear after bath time, we can thank Matt and our friend Ben for teaching him this one! Overall this month has been great and I can only hope we continue engaging ourselves and Micah in different adventures. Our next one being potty training…wish us luck! "Tough Guy"------->

Hello & Goodbye to Sum•mer

sum·mer 1 ˈsəmər/ noun 1 .  the warmest season of the year, in the northern hemisphere from June to August and in the southern hemisphere from December to February. I just wanted to give myself a second to really think about this thing called summer. Anyone else think this definition is just a little bit vague? It's that time of year where we get all excited to have ZERO schedule, endless electronics, the chance to travel and cram in all of the fun you planned for all year long. Then when this so called "summer" ends, you feel bamboozled, like someone just waved that 4th of July pie you went to that party to specifically eat, right in front of your face only to look...not eat. Like seriously, it was here, right in front of my face, and now... it's gone. Now, now we pack lunch every night, we get our homework in (which I don't even understand), we figure out which parent is going to be the taxi for the day, we actually have to ...

She Turned 7!

SEVEN, she did it again... who does she think she is trying to get another year older on us. In all seriousness, she is SEVEN. Like, what happened to 5 and 6? Let me tell you what 7 looks like on my little Pripri... Just a few things about this girl 1. Guess who her favorite person is...duh. Micah 2. She is soooo much more compassionate and caring than I could have ever imagined. 3. She might be 7, however her attitude screams teen! She is sensitive but oh so brave and she is never afraid to take on new adventures! 4. Her best friend is still, you guessed it, Maggie. 5. Right now she is playing softball (second season) and is having a ton of fun. Cheerleading is still on her brain, but for now, we will stick with this. 6. When she laughs, you can't help but laugh with her. Her laugh alone will make you light up. 7. Her favorite things include: Unicorns, Bear (her pink one), Unicorns, Mermaids, those fake glasses (see pic below), her American Girl Doll (pic above), Uni...
