I finally got out of the house last night and actually put makeup on and shoes with heels and combed my hair and everything! My friend has a 3 month old and a 2 year old and was in need of a night off too. She had tickets to a show and her husband wasn't feeling well so she called me and off we went leaving the dads to tend to the babies! First we went and ate Mexican food and then went to the show. I even drank a beer...yup, one whole beer...whoo hoo! Watch me go!

I wanna wish all the nominees of the CCMA'S this year the best of luck! Especially to my good buddy Victoria Banks.....she has a ton of nominations! YOU GO GIRL! Unfortunately it may be bitter sweet for her as she is mourning the passing of her mother but I know her mom will be smiling down on her as proud as can be!  I won't be able to attend this year...bummer! But as you know, I have other things going on right now that are taking all my time and I've won the biggest award of all...my little Ivy!  Have a great time everybody!

Oh yeah, I'm a singer! I almost forgot...sitting down with the guitar or at the piano hasn't exactly been on the top of the priority list lately but I actually did a little singing for Ivy while she sat in her swing and she loved it! It seems the louder the better too!  Our mini-tour will be fast approaching so it's time to start doing my thing, even just a little at a time. I have to say it felt pretty good to belt out a tune or two and of course it's nice to have an extra calming tool when the shushing, the swaddling or the swinging doesn't do the trick.  I discovered the sound of the hair dryer works too! Ha!
