Christmas Day!

Last Christmas post:-)

Ah. Christmas morning. Soooo Collins' "big" thing from Santa was getting a big girl bed. I wasn't really in a rush to switch her but she started crawling out of her crib so our doc told us to go ahead and make the switch. So we talked it up for a good month, how Santa was gonna bring her a big girl bed and how exciting that was etc. On Christmas Eve we let her sleep with us as a "treat" but really so Santa could set up her big girl bed in her room. I couldn't wait to see how she reacted! Y'all, it was too funny!!! My parents were there as well as Mikey's mom... She was so cute. As soon as she woke up we went to her room to see if Santa came. It was like a mixture of surprise, shock, excitement and shyness all rolled into one! The first thing she did was run out of her room and slam the door (pictured below ... Sitting in hallway) it's like she just couldn't take it all in!!

Finally... She ran and jumped on her bed!!   She loved it!
Next, we headed downstairs to see what else Santa brought. These next pictures show her reaction... Kinda the same. A little unsure how to handle it but excited to see all the toys!

Yay!!

My babies:-)
I mean, have you ever? So cute. (I'm biased, it's okay)
Queen Elsa. 
We had such a fun and lazy Christmas morning! It was the best. 

We headed over to Mikey's dad's to celebrate around 1.  Colls and her cousins had a ball. 

My little diva.
Granddadder and Gigi with all the Glenn grandkids!

But, the fun wasn't over yet!!  After that, we headed back to our house to celebrate with Mikey's mom. More chaos and more fun!

Mimi with all of her grandbabies!

And the newly engaged Uncle Trey and "aunt" Brie with the kiddos:-)


We truly had a wonderful Christmas. It was surrounded by family,  friends, and fellowship.

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...
