The Friday Five.


1.       Goodness….what a week.  We had an AMAZING three night excursion to the Abacos in the Bahamas last weekend, where we got to spend the night on my best friend’s dad’s yacht, yeah… it was pretty amazing.  HUGE recap to come…we got home LATE Monday night, so this week has been a whirlwind.  

 

 

2.       This is my Easter dress.   We are heading to Beaufort this weekend for Easter with my parents and I am so excited.  I love being in Beaufort on Easter weekend.  I know we are crazy to go out of town again, but this is my thing.  When I am home…I feel the need to be productive around the house….NOT at Beaufort.  So, really…this will be a much more relaxing weekend for us then if we were to stay home.  And bonus?  We will have two extra helpers for the kids.  Score.

Loft.  

3.       My babies turned 9 months old on Wednesday.  Not sure why that has to happen so fast, I mean, these are my LAST babies…I really need them to stop growing, dammit. 

 

 

4.        My big girl is FULL OF HERSELF these days.  Me oh my.  So much personality, of course, until we get around other people and she gets shy. 

 

5.       Our to- do list is a mile long around the house.  There are SO many things I want to do I don’t know where to start.  Our backyard needs a complete overhaul and a new deck.  We want to go ahead and put hardwoods in our bedroom.  We still have two more rooms to paint.  I still need to buy several more curtain panels….the list goes on.  Money tree, where are you?!

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...
