The Friday Five.

1. Collins and I are SO glad to have Mikey back home.  He arrived Friday night and the timing couldn't have been better as I put him to work painting our half bath Saturday...hehe :-)  I didn't do a weekend recap because it was the weekend of the BIRTHDAY PARTY...so pictures are coming soon!

2. I am SO over this cold weather.  Seriously.  More than ready for spring.  It's gonna be GORGEOUS this weekend, not quite as warm as I would like, but I'll take it.  We got tickets to the baseball game Sunday and I cannot wait.  It will be our first of the season and there really isn't a better Sunday in my mind.  Church, family lunch, and Carolina baseball!

3. Collins is officially walking ALL OVER THE PLACE.  It's like you are all..."come on, walk to me" then all of a sudden..."why did that have to happen so fast...OHMYGOSH she is all over the place!"  Ha!  February 5: first steps unassisted.  Week of February 24: when she really started walking on her own, without someone encouraging her to walk to them, etc.   Week of March 4: haven't seen her crawl all week!

4. We have another birthday party tomorrow afternoon and then some hang out time with friends.  Shaping up to be a wonderful weekend.  Seriously though, Mikey and I had to laugh the other day.  We've already had 2 birthday parties for C's friends in 2013, hers, and now we have three in the next two weekends.  We have officially entered that stage of life.  

5. Although I wrote recently about my "give a damn being busted" regarding my want for clothes/accessories/shoes for myself I am lusting over some new spring goodies.  But, I may be lusting even more over new fabrics for the breakfast room windows and upholstery for the den.  Decisions, decisions!

A few recent snapshots of my boog...

playing so hard, and then decided to take a rest to watch tv for a minute.  Chillin'....
 Ms. Weezie (who keeps her) sent this to me yesterday.  Can we talk about how much I LOVE getting pictures of my girl during the day and can we also talk about how much I LOVE Ms. Weezie.
Took a pic at night with the flash hoping to get this exact face, ha!  BRIGHT LIGHT, mama!

happy weekend, 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...

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...
