Happy Halloween from my mouse:-)

So, we weren't really sure how well this whole "costume" thing was going to go over this year....

Exhibit A)

I ordered a little mouse costume off of amazon and had HIGH hopes.  It was advertised as 6-12 months, but it was clearly labeled 12 months.  Well, let's just say HUGE was an understatement.  It looked like a toddler's costume on her!  And needless to say, she wasn't a big fan the first time we tried it on.....
Well, thank goodness for a quick $5 fix at my favorite alteration place!  I forgot to take the hat portion, but we just pinned it some for the real thing.  We took the hands out completely, girl loves her thumb, so I wanted her to have access if necessary;-)

So, I had my first creative Pinterest idea come to life. (Sorry if that is misleading..it wasn't MY idea, an idea I saw on pinterest and COPIED...sorry, no creative genes here!)  I sent the picture to my dad and he was SUPER excited to make a little mouse trap for our precious mouse to sit in!  I LOVE the way it turned out.  It was perfect because it contained her, she could ride all night, and unlike a stroller she could sit up and see!
Heading into BOO at the ZOO. 
LOVE, LOVE this angel.  I"ll have to do a full recap of all of our Halloween festivities later, but I couldn't resist showing off my little mouse today.  She loved it. 
Happy Halloweeners, friends!

xoxo.

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...

2019 family Village Creek trip

Our 2019 summer family vacation was everything I could have asked for, and more!  This year, my parents and nephew joined us for the week so we had extra fun!  (and extra chaos of course, too!)  We did ALL the things, but yet also did ALL the relaxing.  We arrived on G and T's actual, bday so we started our trip with a special birthday lunch in downtown Beaufort with just the boys since Collins rode down with my mom.  We also finally experienced the drive in movie that night for Toy Story 4 and it was AWESOME!  We only had one day of cloudy weather so that was awesome!  We ventured to Bohicket Marina, Harbor Town, Harbor Island, Edisto Island, Botany Bay, our favorite sandbar AND downtown Beaufort by boat, we had a ball!   My dad got some AMAZING fireworks and we had a little show for the culdesac, so much fun!!  Mikey and I even got to sneak out one n...
