{our weekend}

This may have been one of our laziest weekends to date. But, when it rains...and is just generally overcast, I just can't get motivated! Thankfully, the rain came at a good time though because I definitely needed some extra couch time Saturday morning!

Our weekend started Friday night with a SURPRISE 30th birthday party for one of my best friends. Everything went perfect and she was definitely surprised! Yay!  Her husband went all out and had the party catered and stocked with plenty of good libations!  We also had our supper club that night, so a group of us left the surprise party at 8 and headed to supper club for a bit..which was equally as fun. The hostess made an amazing salad that I want to get the recipe for and may even have to share it (I know...me? Share a recipe?  Funny!  But, it was so good.).  We also dined on Beaufort Stew (amazing as usual)...so yeah, Mikey and I kinda had two dinners Friday night...oops.  After supper club we headed BACK to the surprise party.  Yep, that's right.  Little C was spending the night with my parents, so we figured we might as well take advantage, right?  But...lordy mercy.  Saturday morning was NO BUENO for this girl.  Yikes.

Lucky me, my mom dropped Collins off around 9:30 and it was time for her nap by 10...and for the first time in a long time...I napped the whole time she did.  Thank the lord!  I felt like a new woman after that.  We ran a couple errands and ate a super fattening/amazing lunch out and spent the rest of the day lounging in our PJ's playing with our girl. 

with the birthday girl!
and again, a little later in the night ;-)
As Saturday night rolled around it was time for ANOTHER 30th birthday party celebration.  I guess this is what happens when you and your husband are the same age, huh?  Thankfully (for me) this one was much more laid back.  We took Collins with us and enjoyed a chill night hanging out with friends, eating delicious BBQ and sitting by a fire, yes, a fire...in April almost May.  But, it felt perfect! 

Sunday was spent being (mostly) lazy again.  Seriously, we didn't really do one house "chore" this weekend and that is way out of the norm for us.  But, sometimes...you just need a weekend like that. My mom picked Collins and I up and we hit the mall for a bit to shop some sales at Loft and Belk.  Then it was time to come home and watch our GAMECOCKS whoop up on the TIGERS (by way of Louisiana).  That's a good feeling.  After that, it was low key dinner, play time, DVR, and bed. 

Now, here's to a THREE day work week and ATLANTIS on Thursday!

Cheers!

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...

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...

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...
