wedding weekend rewind

Mikey’s brother got married this past Friday, which led to a FUN and BUSY couple of days of wedding events.  We kicked off the celebrations Wednesday night with a cookout at Mikey’s dad’s house.   My SIL’s family is from LA, so it was nice to get everyone together and have a casual hang out. 

Thursday was the rehearsal and rehearsal dinner…Mikey, Collins and I were all in the wedding so it was a family affair:-) We took the boys to the rehearsal, which was kind of disastrous, thank goodness for two grandmothers who could help out.  They all had a blast at the rehearsal dinner though…they were so sweet playing and dancing together!

I took the whole day off work Friday since the wedding was at 4:30.  So we got to sleep in and enjoy extra cuddle time before the chaos!  I took the kids to Weezie’s mid-morning so I could get my hair done… such a nice little relaxing break.  All of the girls met at the bride’s parent’s house to get ready…I think Collins was in heaven.  My little flower girl did SO good for her first time, I was so proud!  The wedding was beautiful and everyone had a blast.  My parents brought the boys and they stated at the reception for about two hours and then they took them home to go to bed. The boys were dancing machines while at the party though! So stinkin’ cute (I’m biased).  Collins loved having them there to dance with her.  Collins got to stay the whole night with us and she was so good!  She played with her cousins and dance the night away…we had the best time! 

 

Since the boys were at my parents’ house, and we didn’t have them waking us up early…we all slept until 9:15 Saturday morning!!!  Guess we needed it!  Saturday was spent running errands, playing and being lazy (as most of our weekends have been lately).  Late Saturday afternoon we headed back to Mikey’s dads for another cook out and the kids even swam! It was a gorgeous day! 

We are so happy for the newest Glenn’s; it was a beautiful weekend…I’m sad it’s already over!

Wednesday night fun.

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...
