Womp. Womp. + a celebration

I just discovered that I planned my child's FIRST birthday party on the SAME day and SAME time as the ONLY home Carolina/Clemson baseball game.  WOMP.WOMP.  I am so sad about this. I am so NOT even thinking baseball season yet.  It's obviously not the end of the world...but I've gone to this game the past few years and am a HUGE Carolina baseball fan (Clemson is our biggest rival for those not in the Palmetto state know)...and we have won TWO national championships in the past 3 years and came in 2nd last year. SADS. 

Although my baby turns ONE on Sunday, we aren't celebrating until March 3 since her daddy is out of town.  We were going to fly him home but it just didn't make sense...it would be too rushed and the training he is in is really intense and involves lots of studying, so we didn't want to mess that up.   I guess we will just have the TV on with the game and all the guys glued around during the party...oh well, such is life!!  Maybe Colls will bring the Gamecocks good luck:)

Invitations go out today...getting so excited!  Now I only pray the weather cooperates for the shindig ...you just NEVER know about weather here in March...it could be 80 and BEAUTIFUL or 40 and FREEZING.  Because we are having a good amount of people I am definitely hoping for sunny skies so we can take advantage of the outdoors!

Collins' BFF, Mary Brooks, turned 1 yesterday and we went to a little celebration for her last night!   C was pretty clingy, but the birthday girl seemed to have tons of fun!  She was in awe when we all sang to her, so cute. 

Three sweet (non smiling) babies!  (Lochlan was getting changed and Annie was eating!)  Happy, Happy Birthday Mary Brooks!  We love you!

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...
