I'm dreaming of.......

CLOSETS!!!!!!!!! BIG ONES, OPEN ONES, WALK IN ONES!

Bet you thought this was going to be some Christmas wish list huh? Nope. Just about closets. I am so wanting a bigger one, like badly. Growing up, my brother and I both had rather large walk in closets...that's what happens when your dad is the house builder=) It was great. Then...comes college. And we all know what kind of closets dorm rooms have...yeah, not so great. I would typically switch out my summer/winter clothes to save room. I had a dorm room closet for two years, then moved in to the sorority house...those weren't actually that bad. They were walk in, you just had to share it with another person. Then, moved to our own house senior year....old houses in our "college neighborhood" areas = SMALL closets. And ever freaking since, I have had small closets. Our house now is OLD, like built in the 30's old. It has three TINY bedroom closets + a pantry. Thank goodness for a wonderful father who completely re-did our kitchen and made the pantry twice the size...at least that provides me tons of storage for food, coolers, vacuums, brooms, toilet paper, paper towels, etc. It really is very big and a saving grace. I have to store all my linens and extra towels in dressers in my house, yeah...cause there is NO space in closets. Mikey's closet is in the guest bedroom, I got the one in ours...even though they are the same size. The third bedroom has the smallest closet and I use it for all of my jackets. I just want to be able to SEE everything in my closet and not have to cram stuff in. Sigh, maybe one day........ I am not the type of person to have an abundance of clothes either, i buy, wear and get rid of quickly (giving away to goodwill or selling in second hand stores)... seriously my friends are always amazed at how little amount of clothes I actually have in my closet at a time. Quality over quantity right!?!

Anyways, enough about that...these are some of the closets I would GLADLY take!

The color coordination in this one makes my heart pitter patter.
So serene.
I need those cubes for my shoes!
Ahhhh.

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...

To my boys {almost two months late}

MY BOYS: A whole hand.   I can’t believe it.   The past five years have gone by at lightning speed!   You two silly, crazy, sweet, handsome boys celebrated FIVE like you do all other things- with genuine excitement and happiness in your hearts.   Y’all love life to the fullest and have the best imaginations- I could sit and listen to the two of you “play and talk” to each other ALL the live long day.   Y’all rarely fight, but when you do you make up within like 12 seconds, you boys are so different, but yet so the same.   You’ve both grown up in SO many ways and sometimes I have to blink to remind myself you are still my babies (because you are and always will be) but you both still have remnants of “babyhood” that I sure hope stays around a little longer.   It’s been a complete JOY to be your mama the past five years, as much as I want to keep you this AGE FOREVER, I know it’s not possible and am excited to watch you two grow and blossom in l...

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...
