Friends, fun and football

Just a little update about some other fun things we have been up to around the Glenn casa.  Most of my updates are about our family outings, but Mikey and I still (luckily) get to enjoy some couples only time and hang out with friends too! 

 

Thanks to some amazing grandparents and one really, really expensive babysitting bill (yikes) we were able to enjoy THREE Carolina football games this year (I say enjoy…and we sure did…although my cocks are pretty lame-o this year, oh well….).  We had no expectations going into the season of how many games we would get to go to with TWIN newborns, so I think we were both pleasantly surprised to be able to go to three and have a good time with friends (and no babies!)  Mama and daddy need some adult time every once in a while ;-)







 

Mikey and I also had a fun date night one night….had drinks at the rooftop bar downtown and then an excellent dinner at Cola’s.  Of course, we had to go somewhere we could watch the gamecocks, but it was still a fun night out with my number one man.

 

We have a good mix of doing things with other couples/without babies and doing things with all the kids… of course the nights we have the kids everything is chaotic, but we still manage to have a good time!  We spend lots of our weekend nights just cooking out at someone’s house and letting all the kids play together.  Just this past weekend we had three couples over and a total of SIX kids at our house… this is why most of these nights we come away without a picture, because it is CRAZY.  But, this is our season of life and we love it.  We are just thankful to have so many friends to play with at night! 


Had to steal these pics from ig:-). Just some examples of nights spent with friends and babies! 



 Happy hump day!

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...
