{our weekend}

We got a LOT done in the packing department this past weekend.  Seems so early, but we are going out of town this coming weekend and Mikey is out of town the next, and I host TWO baby showers in the month of April………. So yeah, it’s a busy month!  Friday night, we headed to the “MOM” (that would be multiples of the midlands) big consignment sale…….i was PRAYING, FINGERS CROSSED that there would be a baby jogger city select double there……..but no such luck.  We got a few items, but nothing crazy… it’s a better sale for those who will be first time parents or need CLOTHES.  I hesitate to buy too far in advance for the boys b/c I have no clue what size they will be.  After the sale, we met my parents for dinner while they waited on the Carolina baseball game to start. 

 

We were up bright and early Saturday………. Just kidding, we don’t ever wake up bright and early on the weekends.  We snuggled in bed with C bug till 9 and then started making some headway on PACKING.  I got the whole dining room packed (all china and hutch accessories!) and all of the accessories from the den.  Pretty proud of myself. Between Saturday and Sunday we concentrated on getting stuff over to my parents’ house.  Since we will be moving in with them in the interim……..we took ALL baby stuff over there (we could very well still be there when the boys come) and we moved our WHOLE entire attic into their attic.  They don’t use their attic, so it was completely empty.  We will be moving the majority of our stuff into a storage unit, but trying to put as much stuff in FREE storage as possible.  I was exhausted by the end of Sunday, but it was well worth it. 

 

On Saturday afternoon, we took a break and headed downtown to watch our GAMECOCKS play.  They had been calling for bad weather all week, but LUCKY us, the weather man was WRONG.  It was BEAUTIFUL.  We went with my parents and took my niece as well, which majorly helps entertain Collins!  We all had a blast and Carolina won ….down to one OUT left, our guy hit a homerun to win the game…  CARDIAC COCKS for sure! The game lasted a long time, so we grabbed dinner on the way home and then it was time for BED. 

 

Happy Thursday, 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...
