Our weekends lately

Our weekends lately have been SO laid back, with not much on the calendar at all.   To the point where I am ready to GO…so we are finally heading back to Beaufort this weekend, cannot wait.  Anyways, I seriously looked at Mikey the other day and asked what we used to do during the winter.  I’ve never had so much down time in my life.  I’ve always disliked January and February because there just isn’t much going on and it’s typically COLD.  I am a person who enjoys being on the GO and having things planned, so these months kind of mess up my mojo.  We’ve had several LAZY days spent inside the past couple of weekends….it’s been a nice break with me being pregnant and not having my normal energy, but I am definitely ready for a change this weekend! 

We took Collins to her first Carolina basketball game of the year last weekend….we stayed for the first half and halftime and she had a ball…sad to report we didn’t get any pictures!  Two Saturdays ago and this past Saturday night we’ve done the whole hang out at someone’s house with the kids and it has been fun.  We’ve gathered around 5:30 so no one is out too late with babies and this past Saturday we were done by 9:30.  Perfect evening for a pregnant girl!

We had supper club two weekends ago and Mikey and I had a date night two Sundays ago…Lone Survivor was amazing and INTENSE.  We try and get outside as much as possible but the weather has been preventing that a lot.  We play long hours of kitchen, baby, coloring, and block building with C bug…she sure doesn’t mind not having anything “to do.”  We were quite productive two Saturdays ago and cleaned out our entire garage.  We had a pipe bust recently during one of our “artic” nights and a hole in our garage from it so we have to repair that and are going to paint the floors while we are at it.  We’ve watched lots of movies on redbox and I am almost done with Downton season 2…trying to play catch up here.  So, while the downtime has been nice being pregnant…I am itching for WARM weather, things to do, and places to go!!

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...

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...

My Pinterest inspired master bedroom makeover part one.

The BEFORE pictures. I've been itching to re-do my master bedroom for quite some time now. I am one of those people that likes to re decorate quite often...unfortunately for my bank account. Mikey's mom bought him a full queen sized bedroom suite when he graduated college, which was wonderful. It is very nice furniture and has served us well. But, I am SOOO sick of all the dark matchy-matchy look it brings. I will use this furniture again in a guest bedroom one day...but for now, it's time to retire it from my master. All of my bedding and rug I had previously...I've now had this zebra/brown/green theme for almost 4 years...so over it! Fortunately for us...my brother and SIL got a new bed...so what do we get?? Their old KING size bed!! Woohoo. I do NOT like for people to touch me when I sleep, I need my space...I've been wanting a king for so long. Even though our room isn't the biggest the king is working out okay...we aren't going to be in this h...
