The Friday Five.

1.       I’m off to the beach this weekend with my best gals from high school and I am PUMPED.  It won’t be quite like last year’s craziness since two of us are pregnant this year….but I’m really excited about some girl time, beach time, and relaxation time.  The recipe for a perfect weekend in my book.

 

2.       In case anyone was curious…living with my parents has gone extremely smooth.  I mean…I knew I would be fine, but it is a lot to bring ALL of our stuff and a toddler and invade their lives.J  Either we are gone or they are gone almost every weekend and many nights during the week…so there really isn’t too much time where we are all together.  Mikey and I have our own den upstairs which is nice.  If we knew we were going to be there longer, I’d try and get more organized….but since I know we should be out within the next 5-6 weeks….it’s just not happening.  And that does kind of drive me batty…our stuff is everywhere….but we are making the best of it!  It is extremely nice to have my mom around to help with Collins/split cooking duties/etc….especially at this point in my pregnancy.

 

 

3.       We went to our last home baseball game this past Tuesday night….well, unless we get to host a regional or something.  It was HOT, but fun.  Mikey’s mom drove up to go with us and we had a nice little tailgate and she took C to the playground for a long time!  She had a blast.  I sure do love baseball season. 

 

4.       I desperately need some new summer reads.  I go in spells with my reading……..I’ll read every night and fly thru books for a while….and then get out of it and not read for a few months.  But, I’m ready to pick something back up….I know I’ll have a lot of reading time during middle of the night nursing sessions coming soon.

 

 

5.       Speaking of a desperate need….i was in need of new shoes bad.  I needed some good flats/low wedges for this summer, considering all of the extra weight I am carrying around!  I actually went to my last Doctor appointment in heels and my doctor told me to get different shoes asap, ha!  He doesn’t know me too well apparentlyJ  But, in all seriousness…..low wedges and flats are much better for my heel loving self right now………..I went with Jacks for both and love them.  I’ve had the wedges but they were in terrible shape, so a new pair was in order.  But, I am loving these flats….can wear them with anything!

 

 

 

Okay, enough rambling……….happy FRIDAY and happy WEEKEND!

 

Xoxo!

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...
