Bats and balls or bows and tutus?!

We are ABSOLUTELY OVER THE MOON excited to announce we are adding

               TWO LITTLE BOYS

                  to our family!!!!!!!

 

I seriously CANNOT believe it.  Y’all, we were so surprise and are just ELATED.  I should note that Mikey told me after my “on gender(s)” post it sounded like I didn’t want boys and that I was more excited about girls.  HUH?!?  I guess it’s a defense mechanism…I know I would have been excited about having more girls, but  ultimately I thought I made it pretty clear momma wanted a boy too!   We would have been fine either way, I think I was a little concerned that if it was two girls Collins would feel left out and I was seriously concerned for the state of our finances were we to have THREE girls.  I know, there is NOTHING you can do about it….and I am still sweating it out waiting on the big 20 week ultrasound to know how these babies are really doing.  It’s all in God’s hands and I just have to pray for the best.

 

But, y’all.  Seriously.  I cannot believe it.  The ultrasound tech was so casual and nonchalant and said right away….”well we have one little boy here”…I wasn’t quite prepared yet, but OH MY GOSH, Mikey and I just looked at each other with the BIGGEST, cheesiest grins on our faces and held hands.  I am so excited that they will be able to share a room for a LONG time and I can do a BOY nursery, YIPPPEEEE!!!  I came home last night and ordered 8 fabric swatches….wasting no time around here!  We announced at a little reveal at Collins’ birthday party……..it was so much fun!!

 

Thanking GOD for these two little blessings EVERY day.  Now on to name these babies……

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...

2019 family Village Creek trip

Our 2019 summer family vacation was everything I could have asked for, and more!  This year, my parents and nephew joined us for the week so we had extra fun!  (and extra chaos of course, too!)  We did ALL the things, but yet also did ALL the relaxing.  We arrived on G and T's actual, bday so we started our trip with a special birthday lunch in downtown Beaufort with just the boys since Collins rode down with my mom.  We also finally experienced the drive in movie that night for Toy Story 4 and it was AWESOME!  We only had one day of cloudy weather so that was awesome!  We ventured to Bohicket Marina, Harbor Town, Harbor Island, Edisto Island, Botany Bay, our favorite sandbar AND downtown Beaufort by boat, we had a ball!   My dad got some AMAZING fireworks and we had a little show for the culdesac, so much fun!!  Mikey and I even got to sneak out one n...
