{our weekend}


What a wonderful weekend. I had no expectations going into this past weekend as we really didn't have a lot on the agenda, but it sure turned out to be a great one. 

Friday night, we went with Mikey's dad, step mom, brother and his girlfriend to a Carolina baseball game.  It was our LAST home series and we SWEPT Georgia, good feeling!!  GO COCKS!!  I just couldn't help it but to purchase C her VERY FIRST Gamecock cheerleading uniform, me oh my....I've always wanted to be able to do that:-)  It's a little big right now, but I figured it would be perfect for football season. 

Future SIL'S :)


My chunky BUTT toddler...we let her have a chocolate chip cookie and lordy mercy did she enjoy it!! 
We did NOT sit still very much. 
Beautiful baseball weather.
We spent some lazy time around the house Saturday morning playing with C and ALL of her toys.  Mikey then went to my parents house to help my dad with the new outdoor space they are building so my mom and I took Collins on a long wagon ride around their neighborhood.  After her afternoon nap, we went to the zoo for a bit.  She is finally starting to appreciate the animals.  Saturday night was spent at our friends house who just moved to "the burbs" and we are so, so excited!! 
too cool for school at riverbanks zoo.
Sunday was ABSOLUTELY PERFECT.  The weather was amazing.  We started our day by letting mama (yeah ....me) sleep in and Mikey fixed us a good breakfast!  Then it was time for church before a full day on the lake.  Collins doesn't really dig her life jacket this year, poor boo.  But, we had a great time out on the boat on Sunday.  Seriously, this is my happy place.  Water+boat+sun=heaven.  We picked up my brother and SIL and their babes in the afternoon and all headed over to Liberty's for Mother's Day dinner.  We had the BEST time.  They had a guy playing acoustic and we just danced and enjoyed the beautiful sunshine and each other's company for several hours yesterday.  It really was the perfect afternoon.  (I got lots of pics of that that on my real camera...will have to update later). 

With my AMAZING mama and the precious little soul who made me a MAMA. FULL HEART.
Happy Monday!

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...
