FRIDAY: My cousin's 23rd birthday
This called for a night downtown! We went to this cute, chic pool hall that had a bar and a small but convenient dance floor. I say convenient because when our favorite songs came on my cousins and I rushed to the dance floor and laughed our heads off at music we used to love when we were younger. Plus, the dance floor gave me a reason to avoid the pool tables (newsflash: I am the WORST at playing pool). Anyways, my cousins and I grew up together like sisters so any time with them is fabulous.
SATURDAY MORNING: Hateful wisdom teeth
Unfortunately, my wisdom teeth taught stubborn me a lesson this Saturday. You see, a few months ago, I sat unamused in the dentist's chair while my trusty dentist showed me the x-rays of my wisdom teeth. "There is no room for them to grow. The sooner you get all four out, the better." I smiled back and agreed while my mind set that appointment to a much later date. The thought of having my gums cut into is not cute. Plus, I never thought that my wisdom teeth could hate me enough to cause me problems.

Well, Saturday morning I woke to four wisdom teeth still chilling in my gums, a swollen cheek, and a lovely dose of pain. I should have listened. Immediately, I called the dentist's office to make an appointment. Of course my schedule didn't match their openings so I have to wait a few weeks. That will be enough time to tame my fear of getting my teeth pulled and to keep telling myself "Get it together, woman! You had a c-section for goodness sakes!" Best case scenario is that when I plop myself into that dentist's chair a few weeks from now I'll have a sliver of bravery thanks to child birth, a desire to kick my evil wisdom teeth in the arse, and the thought of some hilarious post-extraction YouTube videos. Hopefully, I'll be as hilarious as the girl in the video below.
SATURDAY NIGHT: Hubby's cousin's 18th birthday
Another side of the family, another birthday. We all got fancied up for this red carpet themed party and I even got to take a picture with Brad Pitt (see below). Oh, and we got married on the spot because we're soul mates. Take that, Angelina! But yup, that was my second favorite part of the night.
My first was Carter looking all dapper in his first full suit and his Burberry tie. Just too cute for my eyes!
Also, my hubby's aunt and uncle made a slide show of their daughter's pictures growing up. And it made me realize how sappy of a mother I am. I had to seriously hold in the tears because I kept thinking of Carter growing up and I can't stand it. 25 days until he is two *sniff sniff.*
