The Friday five

1.     It’s finally fall. BUUUUUUUT, the high is 90 here today….so there’s that. I’ve shared my feelings before about the seasons…I’m 1000% a summer girl, and am not ready for our lake days and longer nights to end!  I HATE when the time changes and it gets dark at 5:30 outside, it just makes your day seem so much shorter.

 

2.     The boys had a “worker” parade this morning at preschool and they both chose to dress up like “builders” like their granddaddy:) Pretty cute if I say so myself…




  3.     It was Grandparent’s day at C’s school today and she was SO excited that almost all of hers were there…just missing her Mimi who lives in Augusta.  I am so glad she has four awesome grandparents in town to support her

4.     We don’t have a whole lot planned for the weekend, going to a friend’s tonight for a casual get together for their daughter’s birthday…was thinking about taking the kids to the Gamecock football game tomorrow…. But I keep having second thoughts…it’s supposed to be 90 again…  HOT kids, sweaty me….. sitting in the sun, just not sure if I feel like dealing with all that entails.  We could just stay home and play on the lake all day….

 

5.     I am going to the west coast in two weekends for the first time EVER and we just booked a couples trip in March to Exumas, Bahamas… pretty pumped about both of those.  One of my best friends lives in LA while her husband is trying to make it as a film producer (he’s seriously talented and has won a lot of film festivals!! I keep hoping we will see his name on the big screen one day) and they’ve been there about 5 years and I’ve never been out…it was time! 


Happy weekend!!

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...

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...

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...
