Throw Back already and a review

I can't believe it is already Thursday, makes me pretty darn happy right now. I was out of the office for half the day yesterday, so that along with a 4 day work week = spectacularness. (Yes, I know that isn't a word, I don't care)

This weekend last year was THE weekend before our wedding. It was also the weekend of THE biggest party thrown on Lake Murray every year by our best friend David Plyler...(well not every year, this will only be the 4th...but the past three have been pretty insane.) We were planning on staying in town anyways to work on last minute wedding stuff, packing everything up, organizing for my mom to take to Beaufort that Monday. I took NO freakin pictures at Rock the Dock, don't know why, but I know we had a good time....we got back to my parents house around 7 pm that night, a long day on the water! I'm pretty sure I danced (my parents had people over), ate and then passed out on the couch. I think I needed that day though as a de-stresser before the big weekend. Not that I was really that stressed but it was nice to just relax all day long, knowing that next week was going to be so hectic.

Basically, the party is one huge cluster f*** of people, alcohol, boats, slip n slides, swimming, and music. There were TONS of people there....one of my best friends had such a good time she slept on our boat half the day! (slept/passed out, it's all the same right!?!) This year the party is July 17, we are supposed to go to Beaufort that weekend for the water festival, so not sure our plans yet, however...I will leave you with some random pictures of the party from last year, why oh why didn't I have my freakin camera?? Dang it....

We finally watched It's Complicated last night, both Mikey and I thoroughly enjoyed it, I thought it was really cute and funny. I wish they would have finished the addition before the end of the movie, I would have loved to have seen how they did it/decorated. Ha!

Also, are there a lot of Jodi Picoult fans out there? I just finished reading "Change of Heart" and it was kind of a weird one...I don't really know what to think about it. ALL of her books deal with current issues, and issues that are TOUGH to analyze/do the right thing, etc. This one was about the death penalty and organ donation, but it had some kinda weird Biblical aspects thrown in as well. It definitely wasn't my favorite of hers (that belongs to My Sister's Keeper), but it was interesting nonetheless. I have read 5 of her 18 books, I want to read them all at some point, anyone have a favorite?? (Jennifer, if you read this, COMMENT=) hehe)

What's in a name?

I tell ya, the name game is HARD. Really hard. I never thought that I'd be 27 years old and pregnant and not know what I wanted to name my child. I *think* we have come up with the one , but I'm not quite ready to put it out for the world to see...you know, don't want to many people rushing to get monogrammed bubbles. Ha! Jokes! Anyways...so I can look back and remember what all we went thru to come up with a name in 20 years I am going to lay it all out there. I'll start with saying I want a family name to be somewhere in my children's names. It doesn't have to be a first name, but some name in the child's name I want to be from a family member/family. We'll start with boys names, because they got taken off the table when we found out it was a GIRL..this will be short. Mikey's middle name is Thomas...his grandfather's name is Thomas. So...we always said Thomas would be in our son's name. I always thought it would be cool to do a Tho...

Takeover Tuesday

Surprise Caro, guess who hacked into your blog! I know what you are saying to yourself...I can’t believe it’s taken this long for me to mess with you on here. For those of you who haven’t figured it out yet, this obviously is not your sweet Caroline, this is her wonderful, sarcastic, fun loving, baby daddy (or is it babies’ daddy now?), also known as her husband. (Caro at her finest, throwing me a great 25th birthday celebration) Where do I begin…. I guess we can talk about how this marital bliss came to be before we talk about the author of this blog and how amazing she. Caroline has been the love of my life for as long as I can remember, we were actually first grade boyfriend and girlfriend if you can believe it. After first grade, there was the great divide, as both of us went to different schools the following year. Finally, after 10 agonizing, lonely years we were reunited at a house party our senior year in high school. I, naturally, had always kept an eye on her throughou...

25 weeks....yesterday!

Holy moly!!!! Baby Girl is doing some maaaayjah GROWING:) How far along? 25 weeks. Size of the baby? 13.5 inches and a pound and a half, grow baby girl, grow! Also known as an “average rutabaga”…um, okay. I’ll take Baby Center’s word for it. Maternity Clothes? Same as last week. My wardrobe is shrinking! I have bought several maternity tops, but most of them still look way too big. Still haven’t made the transition to maternity pants even though the bella band aggravates me sometimes. It’s the worst with my work pants, it constantly rolls down. I need to just suck it up and make the switch. Stretch Marks? None have appeared yet, still using the Palmer’s and Bio Oil a few times a week. Movement? Same. It’s so crazy how hard my belly gets at night, it is like she is all knotted up in one place. And the BELLY gets insanely BIG at night! Sleep? Eh…it’s been okay lately. I toss and turn a bunch. Food Cravings? Nothing crazy yet. I have been eating lots of peanu...
