A no picture weekend.

We had another wonderful weekend...relaxing, home projects, yummy food, Carolina basketball, and snuggle time were all accomplished. I jokingly refer to weekends like these as a "no picture weekend." I'm bad about only taking pictures at "parties" and events where there are lots of people, or we are dressed up, or there is an occasion, etc. I need to start documenting more of the "everyday" stuff that goes on in our life, cause...well, it's fun too!

We had a wonderful dinner at Dianne's on Devine in Columbia, it was restaurant week and we had a group of 12 that took advantage of the amazing deal together.
Mikey and I painted our fireplace, yay! Pictures to come later, we still have to add one more coat. We thought we were done Saturday when we left, but when we got home late Saturday night we noticed it wasn't quite there yet.
We watched Carolina lose to Kentucky in basketball, dang it. But, it was a fun game...
We went to a fun bar w. friends. I was even asked what year I was at Carolina, score for me! *Bless that man's heart!
I, Caroline Glenn, cooked a pot roast. This is probably the most exciting thing I did this weekend, *joking* kind of. It you know me, you know I don't cook. I don't enjoy it, or know how. Thankfully, I have a wonderful husband who does. But, Sunday...Mikey went to play basketball and I got an itch to cook. Weird. I love my parents pot roast and was craving it, so I decided I would just cook it. It was yummilicious. And yes, I realize that this recipe was merely just tossing a bunch of things into a crock pot...but in my eyes, that's cooking folks! I'm an amateur, what can I say!
I also finished Water for Elephants this weekend. It was good, maybe not as good as I was hoping, but definitely a good read. I really think the movie will be even better. I know that's not normally the case...but maybe this time, maybe.

Till next time....

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...

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...

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...

Sweet Caroline
