A sweet Sunday

My best friend Megan was sweet enough to take my older two girlies to a baseball game today. So when Will said he was leaving to take them over to her house this morning, I rolled out of bed, threw my hair up in a ponytail , and put on the first pair of shorts and a shirt I could find and said I wanted to come with him. We were in a hurry so Myka ended up wearing a pair of polka dot shorts two sizes to small and a flower tank top one size to small. I grabbed the diaper bad, put the baby in his carseat and we headed out the door.

After we dropped the big girls off Will hinted he wanted to go to the mall. Horrified, I told him in no uncertain terms I would NOT be seen in public in my current state of rolled-out-bedness. He was disappointed because he wanted to get out of the house today. I shot a wedding yesterday and my honey now has a new respect for me as a housewife during the week. And understands why a trip to the local grocery store is a big deal for me some days.

So even though i vetoed the mall I was convinced into IKEA! i cant say no to cheap , swiss, home organization. I still can not believe we walked around that store looking like we did. But I am soooo excited for the play room I am putting together. I will post pics when it is done but here is the start of the wall decor .

Nothing better for your walls then a cheap IKEA frame and a child's view of your family.

I mean look how SKINNY she made me !!

a last minute weekend trip to IKEA that sparks major creative inspiration is lovely !

happy Monday  i am linking up with me friend Heather over here :)

InstaFriday !

i am oh so impressed with myself for writing this post the night before Friday !! I guess we call that Thursday ! Right now my hand is kind of crampy from writing out 13 birthday party invites for Ashlynns party next weekend. One more party and then the birthday madness is over. Ash is the only party this year. Unless its a big birthday ( 5, 10, 13 etc... ) The kids have to take turns on who gets the party. This year its Ashlynns turn. We are having a swimming party at the pool in the community we live in. Should be full of awesome. She is so excited.
Time for my Friday phone dump.

1. I really HATE posting pics of myself. And I want to get over it.
2. Passion fruit ice tea made with lemonade. My new favorite summer drink
3. Not going to lie, Arizona has some awesome sunsets
4. *sigh* Can i swaddle him forever ? 
5. Look at the smile on Mykas face. She is so happy to be with her big sister. Those two have such a great bond.
6. corn time ! We had this with hamburger helper because I am super fancy like that.
7. This kid looks just like me when I was her age. Its scary !
8. My little smarty pants !
9. no comment. just an addiction.
10. Love little toes
11. Ashlynn and Isaiah. She is so involved with him. She was 5 when i had Myka so they act more like siblings. But with Isaiah she is almost eight and takes on more of a mom role.
12. home made play dough is the BOMB !

ps can anyone tell me why i cant get a button to work  I copy and paste but it just shows code ?

Coffee Wednesday

 

Hello :)

Happy Wednesday !!

This morning I was supposed to take Isaiah to his one month check up. 

Now remember we live in the sticks ! (not really)

Just really far from where we used to live/will provably live again.

So taking the lil guy to the doc involves me getting up and actually getting dressed and driving my man into work. ( it also means Starbucks for mama).

So there we were, well on our way when my phone rings. and I realize I took the car keys with me on accident this morning. The set of keys to the only other mode of transportation my mom has to get to work.

Epic fail on my part.

I had to take my hubs to work ,cancel the drs appt and drive all the way home to deliver the keys.

Oh well.

It did leave me with one glorious hour alone at home with the baby while we waited to pick up Myka from preschool. I nursed and watched TV. I watched this show.

I thoroughly enjoyed it.It made me wonder why i run around so much when Myka is in preschool. I should stay home a bask in the sweetness that is one child. 

Soon enough though free time will be gone because ITS WEDDING SEASON !! 

I am excited ! 

And nervous.

mostly excited.

I am linking up to coffee Tuesday. 

Even though its Wednesday. 

I am a bad booty rebel that way.
