Simply Bags

Simply Bags sent me this lovely red velvet bag with my name on it! They have the cutest embroidered tote bags! I am going to use this one around Christmas time because it’s the perfect color and it’s velvet. They have lots of other selections including diaper bags, tote bags and insulated lunch bags. Go check out their site HERE

That’s my name!
So cute πŸ™‚

Fall Food & Fun Weekend

We had another pretty laid back weekend. Terence & I worked the 2 year old nursery room at church. We had a little preview of what is to come I guess! Those kiddos were running circles around us and somehow I got diaper duty πŸ˜› Thank goodness there were only four of them! I’m so excited that Halloween is only a couple weeks away. I love to pass out the candy to all the kids and visit with the neighbors. After church we went grocery shopping at Whole Foods…..

I love all the pumpkins that were outside
I made some banana bread this weekend
It was cream cheese banana bread and the cream cheese made if very moist!

Every week we make fruit baggies to take to work for breakfast. It usually consists of strawberries, cantaloupe, and grapes. It takes awhile to cut up all the fruit, but so much cheaper to do it yourself than buy the pre-made stuff!

Another fall goody!
Reese’s DARK chocolate peanut butter cups πŸ™‚
Speaking of peanut butter….
I love getting the fresh ground peanut butter at the store and dipping apples in it…it’s so good!

Terence and I are enjoying our new Nespresso machine
We bought vanilla syrup from Starbucks for $6.95 and make our drinks at home.
It’s a LOT cheaper this way too πŸ™‚
My friend Beth Ann sent me this owl necklace
I LOVE IT!
Thank you so much it made my day πŸ™‚
(excuse the carrot stain on my shirt!)
Connor loves sitting in high chairs at restaurants
and he loves chewing on napkins ha..ha..

He also LOVES riding in the shopping cart
Such a BIG BOY!
We also went to see our precious Granddaddy in the hospital this weekend
We love you so much Granddaddy and are praying for you every day!!!
Hope you all are having a good week too πŸ™‚

CSN Review

CSN is an awesome company! They have an array of over 200 stores! I’ve found everything on CSN from baby gear, shoes, and dining sets. My husband and I are in the midst of decorating our new home. One of the pieces we are looking to purchase is a dining sets along with an area rug for the dining room.

These two are just what I was thinking…..

Go check out CSN now!

Happy Shopping!

Busted!

This post is going to be all over the place because my head is all over the place right now! The other day Terence went in to check on Connor during nap time and he found him like this……
Connor was butt naked with his hiney in the air. He took his diaper off all by himself! ha..ha..

And of COURSE he tee tee’d all over his bed πŸ˜›
Why did you wake me up?
Why are you laughing at me???
A sweet customer at work brought me a baseball piggy bank she hand painted for Connor with all his stats on it. It is so beautiful and it meant so much that she spent time to do something so personal and special for me. Also, another customer brought me a fern plant last week too! He said he grows them himself and obviously it was something he took great pride in and wanted to give me one! I’m so blessed to have such sweet customers & they mean so much to me πŸ™‚
I ordered this little coat for Connor today on Zulily. Can I just tell you how OBSESSED I am with that site??? I love it!

This is totally random…..
But do ya’ll notice how similar some of the “Real Housewives” look like other celebrities and soap opera divas? I look at them sometimes and say “hmmm..they sure do look like so and so….”
Here is a little list I compiled :

I am so ready for the weekend. I want to just relax and spend time with my family. I would also love to go to the TCU game or hang out with some friends….other than that I don’t have much planned! I hope you all have a great weekend too!

A day off with my boys

Yesterday I had the day off because it was Columbus Day. Gotta love those federal holidays right??? Terence took the day off to spend with us too. Connor got up and ate then we all slept until 10:30!!! Woohoo for sleeping in! I don’t think either of us have slept that long since before Connor was born.

  • We did our grocery shopping at Target & Connor LOVES to ride in the cart
  • I made my Great Grandma Bonnie’s potato carrot soup. It’s so good I usually make it on a snowy or cold day because it’s really heavy, but I was craving it.
  • We had lunch at McKinley’s & ordered a chocolate ice box pie πŸ™‚

    Connor got a glo-worm

    We spent a lot of time playing on the floor and crawling around

Some more pics from the weekend:
  • Mommy in the silly glasses
  • Connor crying because he had the poopies all weekend
  • My new Hog shirt from Elaine @ Honey Pie Accessories πŸ™‚
  • Connor wearing my Baskin Robbins cone wrapper as a hat

Some goofy pictures of my boo!

I hope you all are having a great day too!

XOXO – Becky

Weekend Update

We had a pretty relaxing weekend. I am sooooo excited because I don’t have to go into work tomorrow! Thank God for federal holidays eh??? Terence got an XBox game so he’s been pretty glued to the TV all weekend and Connor found Daddy’s XBox and decided to press all the buttons….and so it begins!!!ha..ha..ha..

My angel and me after church today πŸ™‚
All the ladies love him in the nursery and he’s always so good. He really just loves to be outside the house and interacting with others. Everyone always comments on how observatory he is. You can tell he’s always trying to figure things out. Connor has not been feeling good all weekend and he’s been quite fussy. I think he may be allergic to sweet potatoes because every time we feed them to him he gets sick. He either throws up or has the runs for days….maybe that is TMI..but poor little dude is not happy πŸ™ And when he ain’t happy ain’t NOBODY happy!
Connor got his first boo boo
See the bulls eye in the middle of my eyes???
He bonked his head on the changing table this morning. Good job!

He’s been crawling everywhere and getting into more things so we definitely have to keep our eyes on this little rug rat because he is on the MOVE!

My what a big nose you have!

We also celebrated Kim & Kevin’s baby shower this weekend.

Kim is Terence’s sister and she is expecting a baby girl (Alisha) in January

Isn’t her Winnie the Pooh cake so cute!

Kim, Kevin, and Connor
They got LOTS of goodies and we are so excited to meet baby Alisha soon πŸ™‚

Hope you all had a great weekend too!
All of you who have tomorrow off can I get a “What!!! What!!!”
Holla

Enjoy your Monday!
