The Friday Five


1.       One of my Christmas presents that I am LOVING.  I finally got the Modalu Pippa bag and it is perfection.  I ended up going with a classic black, it is GORGEOUS….in my opinion;-)

 

 

2.        Another Christmas present that we are loving is the addition of this rug to our den.  I put our old rug in the play room so we needed a new one for the den.  I thought it was a bit gray-er when I ordered it, but I actually like it a lot next to my gray couches.  ALL the fabrics I am using in this room right now, I need to be durable and washable. Enter Dash and Albert… you can HOSE this thing off…and spills just bounce off of it.  PERFECT for this stage of our life.

 

3.        I’m finally getting around to having the last light hung in our kitchen….hopefully I’ll get some pics after that’s done.  My dad still has a few touch up items to do, but otherwise the kitchen will be complete!  This is the light I went with for over the kitchen table.  We actually bought it from a local store in Beaufort, but Shades of Light sells it too…I love it.

 

 

4.       I got some new makeup products recently that I’m digging.  I’m not a huge products person…  but you obviously have to have makeup…or at least I do! 

I have bad dark circles and this is working really well.. And it's got some good for you stuff in it.  

Loving this bronzer to help with that winter whiteness.
3. I like the finish on this powder a lot. 

 

5.       We are heading to Beaufort next weekend with a group of friends and it’s just what we need.  I love escaping down there for the weekend with NO agenda.

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...
