{our weekend}

Another laid back weekend in the books.  Time is just a FLYING by…I swear we were JUST celebrating Halloween yesterday. 

 

We started out the weekend with supper club…and invited the kids this timeJ  So…it was a little more hectic than normal and we left by 9:45 but we still had a wonderful time with our friends.  I love our supper club b/c it is so laid back and easy.  I wish I would have taken some pictures…we had four little girls running around playing and one itty bitty baby girl….when oh when will we have more boys?!  Out of our supper club (9 couples and 9 kids) we only have TWO little boys.  Nuts.  It’s a girls world around our friends, for sure. 

 

Saturday morning we got up early to head out for some family pictures.  And LORDY mercy…my child will NOT smile when someone wants her to, does anyone else have this problem?  Drives me nuts.  She may have smiled in like 4 out of 400 pictures on Saturday morning….grrrrrrr.  I really hope we got at least one or two I can use for Christmas card pictures. 

 

We came home and lounged around for the next few hours….it is so nice to have a Saturday of no plans.  But, I did head downtown around 3:30 to watch my alma mater compete in the STATE cheer championship, so sad to say they dropped a stunt and came in second….I was literally a nervous wreck watching them, what in the WORLD will I do if Collins wants to cheer one day?  If Chapin would have won yesterday, that would have been SIX consecutive state championships and TEN total, still proud that I was on the FIRST team to win…we just don’t need to talk about what year that was….

 

On Saturday night, we had no plans so I told my mom we would help her entertain my niece and nephew. She was keeping them for the evening and my dad was out of town; so Mikey, my mom and I went to Monkey Joe’s with the three kiddos.  I said this the other day, but best CHEAP entertainment around.  We ate dinner at Zoe’s and were back home by 9…so, so nice. 

 


On Sunday I helped my mom out around her house a lot…random projects she’s been wanting to get done and then C and I went to a birthday party.  Sunday nightwas spent with my parents eating a home cooked meal since it was my dad’s actual birthday.  A fire, the Good Wife and the ipad rounded out my Sunday evening.  Pure bliss.

 

Here’s to a THREE day work week!!!!!  And then it’s TURKEY timeJ

 

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...
