weeeknd rewind

Busy, busy, busy!  That’s what we’ve been lately:-) We had lots of family time this past weekend and enjoyed some quality hang out time with the kiddos…it was a good weekend!

 

We started off our weekend by having some friends and their daughter come over for dinner Friday…we took no pics, but sometimes that just means we were too busy having fun!  It was COLD (by South Carolina standards) on Friday so we mostly stayed inside, but the kids still had fun while we enjoyed catching up with our friends. 

 

We were off early (ish) Saturday morning to head to North Carolina for Mikey’s grandfather’s 95th birthday celebration, which ended up taking place in a hospital waiting room b/c he was on a ladder and broke his hip!  What 95 year old is still climbing ladders!??  Stubborn old man;-) It was good to see a bunch of family that we don’t see very often though and spend some time with our other Glenn twins and their siblings… 8 kids together, 11 and under….chaos! 

 

We got home late Saturday night, and everyone slept until 9:30 Sunday morning!  Amazing…because we had another busy, fun day planned.  We did church, lunch and then the zoo!  My kids love the animals and all, but our favorite part of the zoo is the new “kids” area they built called waterfall junction…complete with two splash pads, a “slide”, playground, huge tree house, dino dig/sand area and MUCH, MUCH more. It truly is awesome, we are so lucky to have such an amazing zoo so close to home.   We stayed at the zoo until almost 6!!  We had so much fun though and once we got home it was quick dinner and BED time for my trio who was wiped out! 

 

And then Mikey and I ended the weekend with a glass of wine on the couch watching Patriots day, which is about the Boston marathon bombing, cue the waterworks.  All in all, a very good weekend was had!


Just some pics I took of the kids before school last week, looking way too old. 



Happy birthday grandpa Tom!

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...
