The Friday Five.

*** Spoiler alert, it's MONDAY and this never posted:(  Booo, don't know what happened, i'm not even going to worry about linking up but just wanted to still get it on here.  And in other news, my fears came true and my gamecocks LOST a big one.  Major sads.  We played like crap, our defense was non existent.  Moving on now......

The Friday Five.


1.       We had family pictures made on the beach Monday and just saw a sneak peek…can’t wait to see the rest …will have to do a FULL recap later, they are BEAUTIFUL!!!  So glad we did this.  Photographer is based out of Columbia, SC; she is amazing and was my cousin in law before her first husband/ my cousin was killed in a car accident…so, so sad.  But, she is a beautiful person and I am so glad we stay in touch.  {HATTONS PHOTOGRAPHY, for anyone local}


2.       I really can’t think about our game tomorrow.  I am going to be a NERVOUS wreck.  Fo’ real.  If it were a home game, I wouldn’t be that worried…but it’s not.  And I am.  GO COCKS!!!  I HOPE MY ASS KICKIN’ CHICKENS COME THRU FOR ME!


3.       This may be one of my favorite “mom” articles to date.  READ it and LIVE it, fellow momma’s.  AMEN.

4.       I need some new books to read….and would LOVE suggestions.  I read a LOT.  I read a whole John Grisham on Labor Day weekend…(mostly travel time), I admit I skimmed this one some.  Here’s what I’ve read lately:

a.       John Grisham: The Confession: good, typical…fast read due to suspense
b.      Gillian Flynn: Sharp Objects: WEIRD, but I read fast b/c I was intrigued
c.       Dorothea Benton Frank: The last original wife: typical of her, cute
d.      Dan Brown: Inferno: not my favorite Dan Brown, but a good read nonetheless

5.        We are having a fairly low key weekend.  NO PLANS tonight.  May take C bug to the pool…grill out, watch TV on the screened in porch since we finally hung the tv out there, yay!!!  Tomorrow is ALL ABOUT FOOTBALL, friends set to arrive around 4 for the Carolina/Georgia game, but I imagine we will be glued to game day and ESPN ALL day long.  LOVE IT.  Sunday’s plans involve church, naps, pool time and then dinner with Mimi and Uncle Trey and Aunt Brie (Mikey’s mom and bro and girlfriend).  Looking forward to it!  HAPPY FRIDAY!
Have a great 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...
