The Friday Five.


*oops, just realized this never posted on Friday, so now you get the Friday Five...on Sunday:)


The Friday Five.

1.   1.    I am slightly obsessed with my “new” chair.  I absolutely LOVE the more modern fabric on the traditional wing back.  Cannot wait for my sectional and pillows to come in.  Happy day! 


2.      2.  MIKEY IS HOME!!!  Maybe that should have been number ONEJ ha!  I don’t like to announce it to the interwebs…obvi, but I’ve been livin’ life as a single parent this past week and ME NO LIKEY.  I’ve said this before…I hate to complain when I know so many others have it harder, but I am NOT an “alone time” type person and I do NOT like being by myself.  Like, I get so bored.  I guess I could have been productive this time, and done something useful…but I just wasn’t up for it.  So I ate Lucky Charms for dinner two nights, had my parents buy us/make us dinner two nights and had a spend the night girls night last night with my lady loves.  Collins came along tooJ  And other than that, I spent about an 1.5 hours each night on the ipad….TV is terrible during the summer.  I also read Dorthea Benton Frank’s newest book this week, The Last Original Wife....all of her books are practically the same, but they are perfect quick, easy summer reads. This one was cuteJ So, needless to say…I’m stoked my hubs is HOME and does not have any business trip/classes/training planned at any time in the future.  CHEERS to that!


3.    3.   My hair needs help in the worst possible way.  I don’t even know the last time I got it highlighted…yikes.  New job is way far away from my hair girl though so we are trying to figure out an alternative…I MUST BE BLONDE ASAP. 
4.     4.  I seriously have not been shopping for myself (besides a few new work dresses, which just doesn't excite me) in FOREVER.  I’m starting to get sick of most of my clothes.  I hate when that happens.  A whole closet full of stuff and nothing appeals to me.  Guess that mean s it’s time to stock up. 
   5.   Citrus Lane review.  We got our first box in the mail yesterday and I honestly have mixed feelings.  The Melissa and doug puzzle is obviously very good….that’s a nice toy.  But, the other stuff…mehhh, not that they aren’t nice things…just don’t excite me that much.  I don’t know if it’s worth $21/month.  May give it a few more months and then decide. 

Xoxo CHEERS to the weekend, friends!

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...
