Connor: “I made a wish for my birthday!”
Me: “Don’t tell anyone or it won’t come true!”
Connor: “But I want to tell you…I wished for a baby brother or sister!”
Me: “Yeah I don’t know about that you better think of something else…”

Celebrate Dad This Father’s Day with Little Bites + Enter to WIN!
This post is sponsored by Little Bites, all thoughts and opinions are my own.
Father’s Day is this weekend and it’s time to show the Dads, Daddys, Fathers, Grandfathers, Uncles, and all “Father figures” how much you care. I grew up with the best Dad. He literally has a heart of gold. There is nobody that can ever replace my Daddy or the memories I have growing up. He’s always been there for me and my sister through thick and thin. He’s also one of the FUNNIEST people you’ll ever meet. He has never met a stranger and can become instant friends with just about anyone.

School’s out for SUMMER!!! Woohoo!!! All the teachers shout for joy and the parents pull themselves up by their bootstraps. I’m really excited for summer break and I know Connor is too. He’s going to summer camp and I’m sure it will be a lot of fun! BUT…one thing I do worry about is if he’ll retain everything he learned over the past year in the next few months. He had such a good year in second grade and I can see by his work how he grew leaps and bounds.
Kitchen Remodel & Stuff
Soooo….We’ve been without a kitchen for a couple of months now and are super ready for it to be FINISHED! I am so tired of eating out and I’m not one who loves to cook, but I do miss having the option to cook. I was just getting to be BFF with my Instapot too….bummer! We are having the back cabinets re-built right now and the rest will stay the same. It was too costly to change out all the cabinets, so we are just re-working them into our new design. We will be changing the countertops, backsplash, sink, and faucet. It seems like it will really brighten up the space too. To give you an idea of what we are going for here is the wall color:

Aaaaaand we still don’t have a kitchen, but it’s progressing and decisions are happening. I hope you love on your Mama and make her feel special this Mother’s Day. God bless my Mom for putting up with me. Lol! Now that I’m older and look back on life I’m EXTRA thankful for her because being a Mom is hard. I love Connor more than life, but this week in particular has been rough…and Mama said there’d be days like this right?

Avengers Infinity War : The End is Near
I may not be a super hero, but I am a super Mom. I broke this kiddo out of school yesterday to get a sneak peek of the new Avengers: Infinity War movie before it hits theaters. I told Connor to put on his Captain America shirt before school and he had no idea we’d be going to see the movie. I haven’t checked him out for anything this year…but this was so worth it! When he got to the office and I was wearing my Captain America shirt and I said “What shirt are you wearing? “What shirt am I wearing?” He just stood there and said “No…no…no….are we going to see the movie?” YES!!!
Proceed with a screaming 8-year-old boy running out of school like his pants were on fire.
Every time we both try to talk about it Terence promptly “SHHHHHHHHH” us! He is going to see it Saturday so we’ve been sworn to silence in our own home. Which, after you see the movie you’ll understand is a hard thing to do!
Being in a house of only dudes I’ve probably seen every Marvel Superhero movie 3 times or more. It seems like 10 years has whipped past and suddenly I’ve been hit with a thousand stones (Infinity stones to be exact: Space, Mind, Reality, Power, Time, Soul) trying to process the latest film. I hope you have your tickets and are ready for quite the ride. If you haven’t seen all the films leading up to Avengers” Infinity War now is your chance to marathon watch y’all!
It all started with Tony Stark.
- Iron Man (2008)
- The Incredible Hulk (2008)
- Iron Man 2 (2010)
- Thor (2011)
- Captain America: The First Avenger (2011)

- Iron Man 3 (2013)
- Thor: The Dark World (2013)

- Avengers: Infinity War (2018)
- Ant-Man and the Wasp (2018)
- Captain Marvel (2019)
- Untitled Avengers Film (2019)
- Untitled Spider-Man: Homecoming Sequel (2019)
- Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 3 (2020)
Who knows how it will end???
Now go get your watch party started with some popcorn…maybe throw some M&M’s in there for good measure. Prepare yourselves mentally for this movie…physically you’ll just be sitting there, don’t worry it’s okay to watch Thor and Captain America and just sit back and admire with googly eyes.
In a closing note I’d love to hear your thoughts once you see the movie, so come back and comment and let’s discuss! Also, if I had to chose an Olsen sister to defend me at the end of the world it wouldn’t be Mary Kate or Ashley. The Scarlet Witch is my favorite Avenger female superhero…because daaaaaaang.
This showed up in my time-hop today on Facebook…coincidence…I think not!
