Comings and Goings

Little Mister seems to be doing better today. Last night I gave him a bath with some vapor bath wash and he loved it. He LOVES his bath time! He’s been sooo stuffy lately and his little baby cough just makes me feel so bad for him! He looked so cute this morning and was in a good mood so Mommy snapped some pictures 🙂

Terence grilled out again last night and we watched the series finale of 24. What are we going to do without Lost and 24 now??? We were talking about television and we both are ready for some good scripted shows instead of all this reality TV.

Yummy BBQ chicken and grilled zucchini and squash

Yesterday at work we celebrate my birthday (which isn’t until Sunday) along with my co-worker JoAnn’s birthday. Our birthdays are a week apart. They got us a red velvet cake and they got me a birthday card with a very GENEROUS Starbucks card that should last me like….months! I was excited! They obviously know me very well! ha..ha..!!! Hope you all are having a great week!

Whirlwind Weekend!

I can’t believe it’s already Monday….again….tomorrow! It seems like these weekends just fly by! With each passing day I get a little better acquainted with little Mister and he’s just growing up so fast already. I just love him so much..he’s my precious angel boy! Terence’s parents watched Connor for awhile on Saturday while I power cleaned the house and the exterminator came over. I was able to get some stuff done I’d been putting off before my family visits next weekend. I feel so much better when my house is clean and I’ve caught up on things. While cleaning I noticed how so much has changed in the past few months…gone is my pristine kitchen and house…it’s made way for things like this now….

The trusty bottle warmer…I love you!
Bottle racks now align my counter tops instead of decorations 🙂

And every morning before work I get my pump ready, a cooler with C’s bottles, and a smaller cooler to put my milk in. That doesn’t include his diaper bag, my purse, his car seat, and another bag! I feel like I am packing for a vacation only it’s every morning!

Little Mister has starting blowing bubbles and has become a drool monster! He hasn’t been feeling too good lately and I was worried to leave him in the nursery at church this morning, but he did really good again! I just hope he starts feeling better soon!

Note for Dad: “Mommy says just because I have a big poopy or a HUGE booger
doesn’t mean she wants to come SEE it!” LOL!

Terence grilled us an awesome dinner tonight. He made chicken stuffed with sage and mozzarella. He also grilled some corn and it was sooo good!
We are watching the Lost series finale event right now!

I also made some homemade salsa
(one of my favorite summertime foods)

Here are some pics we took while shopping this weekend.
Connor had to try on this hat…it was all his idea!

And of course we had some SB!

Tomorrow Connor gets to see his cousin Arielle again and go play 🙂
They loooove each other!
So sweet!
I hope you all had a great weekend!

First Shots

Connor had his first shots today so he’s not feeling too well tonight 🙁
Terence took him while I was at work today, which is probably a good thing because I would have cried right along with him! He seems to being doing okay though…just a little fussy. It was so hard to find infant Tylenol because of the national recall. We finally found some CVS brand. If you have some you should go check it out on their website and see if you have one of the recalled bottles. I am SOOOOO glad tomorrow is Friday! Yippeeee!!!!

Bugs Bunny band aids make it all better….
He’s such a happy boy 🙂

TGIF everyone!

May Weekend

I’m counting down the days until my family gets here Memorial Day weekend. I can’t wait! I get sooooo homesick sometimes especially after having Connor I really want them around.

Connor has been an angel baby lately….just smiling and laughing at everything. We love to watch him grow and learn each day. His little smile just melts my heart! It’s the greatest thing on this earth looking into his eyes and see him smiling back at me.
I’ve been having a lot of anxiety lately and I don’t know why??? Just tension and stress…I know I worry waaaay too much about things that don’t matter and I wish I could just lay down and night and let the world melt away. Unfortunately I am not one of those people and I’ve had a hard time managing things lately while trying to get things done. I will start one thing and then forget about it and then start another project…then move onto another thing….I feel like robo mom sometimes! Lord grant me the strength I need to deal with each day and whatever it may bring. I love being a mommy, but sometimes I get overwhelmed…I don’t know HOW all of you with two, three, or four (or more!) kids do it! I’m living and learning each day 🙂

This weekend we went out to lunch with my sweet friend Bree and her son Dillon. We visited a new restaurant called the Yucatan Taco Stand and it was SOOOOO good! We will definitely be going back there!

Dessert
White Chocolate Cream Brule
I also got my hair done! I asked for caramel colored highlights and they turned out really REALLY blond….so I am not so sure about it. It’s growing on me though….what do ya’ll think?

OH!

Celebrate Good Times!

We celebrated Terence’s 29th birthday on Tuesday. I woke up and walked into the bathroom and Terence said he forgot it was even his birthday! What??? I never forget MY birthday! He’s weird! I brought home some Coldstone Creamery cookies and he blew out his candles and we watched Lost. That’s about it, nothing too exciting…..

Last night we went out with our friends Christa and Adam to The Cheesecake Factory to celebrate. They just loved on Connor and gave him bunches of attention! He loved it! They are so sweet and will be such good parents someday…hint…hint…

And now let’s talk food…..
LORDY MERCY
look at that salad (it’s mine!)
I was supposed to bring the leftovers for lunch today but forgot it in the fridge!
Terence got this deliciousness…
And for dessert you MUST have a cheesecake right?
I didn’t get my usual Godiva cheesecake (shocker!)
I tried the red velvet and it was delish….but I still favor my Godiva 🙂
This little guy has been an ANGEL the past few days. He rarely cries when I pick him up after work and he’s been good all night sleeping until 5 am or sometimes even 7 am! I’m so proud of our little guy and he’s just growing like a weed already! I hope this little happy streak lasts for a good while! ha..ha..

Hope you are all having a good day!
It’s ALMOST Friday..wooohoooo!!!!

Happy Birthday my love!
I remember the above picture like it was yesterday. It was 10 years ago and you turned 19…it was your first year away from home and I wanted to make it special so I got you a cake, balloons, and that Texas boot pinata! LOL! Each year has been even more special to me and I love you more than ever! I hope you have a good day today honey and enjoy the last year of your 20’s! I thank God for you and the day you were born 🙂
