JennReyn's getting married...(well she did, over a month ago!)

One of my bestests Jennifer got married June 25 in Rock Hill, SC. And I am JUST now getting around to re-capping one of her MOST important events...the BACHELORETTE!!! Shame on me, right?!? Of course, my pictures are out of order, and no... I don't feel like taking the time to rearrange them. Our bachelorette party days are slowly becoming less and less....we only have a few more single girls in our group, so we MUST live it up while we can, right? Even though we all live in SC, and most of us in Columbia...and most of us have even lived in Charleston at some point...our "college girls" group had never done a bachelorette in Charleston. I've been to several in Charleston, but never with these girls. So, it was HIGH time. We found a fabulous house on the Isle of Palms to stay in for the weekend, any house that sleeps almost 20 girls is fabulous. Friday night we did our usual, appetizers, drinks, lingerie shower turned SUPER dance party. Sometimes I think we have more fun on Friday nights when it is just us girls. We were even bringing out the old high school cheerleading/sorority dances. SO. MUCH. FUN. I'll leave those pictures out...because, well they may get a tad embarrassing.

Saturday was one of the BEST beach days I have had. 20 girls...circled up, talking for hours on a GORGEOUS beach without a cloud in the sky. Doesn't get much better. The weather, tunes, drinks, and girl talk were perfect. Saturday night, our STRETCH hummer limo arrived to take us downtown. We started with drinks at the Rooftop...one of Charleston's prettiest views and one of the nicest hotels. You feel a little "A list" while up there. We then headed to dinner at O'ku, which began our fun night of dancing with a little dj action. But, for the REAL dancing we ended up at CLUB TRIO...the best place in the city to DANCE. And dance, we did. Our pretty little bachelorette stayed up on stage the WHOLE time we were there. A success of a night, indeed.

This was Saturday night at dinner.

Best friends.

I feel like we talked about Jennifer's bachelorette and wedding festivities forever...and now they have come and gone. Much too fast. Makes me sad.

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...

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...
