Weekend rewind


We had NO plans this weekend and used every second to LOVE on our babies.  We are leaving tomorrow (!!!) for COSTA RICA for a wedding/vacation.  While we are absolutely ecstatic for this trip, I’m also having anxiety about leaving my babes, this will be the longest I’ve ever left them, sads. I know they will be in WONDERFUL hands….I just have a constant thought of “what if” and it’s the WORST. 

 

Anyways,  on to the point of the post.  Friday nightwe took the kids to Toys R us for Collins to pick out a toy with birthday money from grandparents.  Y’all, this thing is HUGE and AMAZING.  No clue where we are going to keep it in our house, but for real…this thing is awesome.   The escalator works and the movie theatre has a spot to put your phone, because you know, even Barbie’s need to watch real movies;-)  She is super excited about it and spent the whole weekend playing with it.  She’s still obsessed with princesses, but Barbie is slowly climbing in the ranks and taking over our house!

 

We then met my parents for dinner Friday night, which is always fun.  We were home by 9 and asleep by 10!  WILD Friday night!  I’ve gotten to where Friday’s are hard for me…I’m usually so exhausted!

 

We spent Saturday morning playing and doing house chores.  Then we headed to a birthday party, with a balloon guy and a magic show, which C thought was pretty cool!  G and T were obsessed with the balloons!  The rest of Saturday was spent napping (for the kids) doing laundry/etc. and just hanging out.  We walked across the street for dinner with our besties/neighbs and hung out. 

 

The only pic I took at the bday party, g and his weezie:-)

Sunday was GORGEOUS, we spent lots of time outdoors jumping on the trampoline, riding bikes, etc.  The boys LOVE to be outside so I am so glad it was such a pretty day.  I snuck away for a bit during nap time to attend a bridal shower and then it was grocery shopping and packing time!

 Collins "running" on the treadmill, hilarious!!

I hardly took any pics this weekend, but we had such a good weekend with our family.  Just the five of us, and that was much needed for me knowing I was going to be leaving them.  We leave tonight after the kids go to bed to drive to Charlotte and fly out EARLY Tuesday morning for COSTA RICA!  We won’t get home until LATE Sunday night…say a prayer for us for safe travels and that my babies stay safe. 


Xoxo

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...

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...

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...
