Every Dog has his day

Hey everyone! Hope your weekend has been wonderful. It’s been snowing all weekend here, but it has actually been a nice change of scenery. I feel like Josh and I have been running around all day. Optimus has been shedding like C-R-A-Z-Y so we decided to get him groomed at Groomer Has It. The pricing was so great we got Kito groomed too and he looks hilarious! I was pondering a lion cut, but I’m glad we went with the “fox”. His head looks so tiny compared to his chubby body I keep cracking up. He seems happy to have all of that weight off of him. I feel like taking tons of pictures of him now. It makes such a difference being able to see his little face!

Side note- Did anyone else see that Duck Dynasty episode where Si got a poodle for his hunting dog? Oh my goodness I laughed so hard I cried. If you haven’t seen it yet click the link and prepare to crack up!

We also ran up to Franklin to get the glass paperweights we made during our class at Franklin Glassblowing Studio. Josh made me a blue and green heart and I made Josh the yellow and brown heart (Josh picked the colors to look like CAT’s colors since he works there). Of course mine looks crooked, I have a hard time writing, swimming, and walking straight so hey, it makes sense.

Anyhow- it was fun! I love no pressure learning environments. Did you do anything fun this weekend?

The Velveteen Rabbit

We’re at week 32! Only 8 more weeks to go. Yesterday we had our final baby shower and it was just adorable. My in-laws threw us a Velveteen Rabbit themed shower. Take a look at these pictures my sister-in-law took of all the sweet decorations. Isn’t it just adorable? I was so sad to tear down the diaper cake, but that wreath is going to go on his nursery door I’m sure. Eli is so lucky to have a crafty grandmother. Not only did she decorate the shower, but she also made him a ton of personalized burp cloths, onesies, pants, blankets, and bibs. Aren’t they soooo cute? I’m thinking about changing his going home outfit to be his little lion onesie she made him with his name embroidered on it. We’ll have to see! Oh and that bear backpack! Isn’t it precious? I can’t wait to pack it up for him to go out to his Mimi’s. He’ll just love it. Now for his week 32 check in… Weight Gain: 29 lbs in 32 weeks. Crazy! I did gain 5 of those lbs wh

All work and no play makes Jack a dull boy

I’m so depressed! The Halloween party we were planning was cancelled (yea-that means we cancelled it). I LOVE love love Halloween, but I’m okay with a low-key night since many of our friends are going to be out of town the weekend we had planned to throw the party. Last year Josh and I spent time handing out candy to neighbor kids and watching the shining. Of course I decorated like crazy, but this year I think I’ll probably keep the decorating outdoors and use the food to celebrate the occasion. Here’s what I had planned food-wise for the Halloween Party. For (eh-hem, real food) snacks. Trick or Treat Turnovers Pizza Mummies For crunching and munching on Scarecrow Crunch For dessert Candy Corn Rice Krispies Monster Mash Pudding Pretzel and Brownie Skeletons I’ll probably let Josh pick out what I make for the occasion since all of it looks SO good

Ready Set, Have You Met...

In the event you don't know, the end of that lyric is "Robocar Poli" which has been playing often in this house lately. Anias and Eli both love it, and with the spiders, ticks, rain, and overall grouchiness of a sleep deprived almost 2 year old I'm just going to roll with it. Josh and I have been busy trying to fix up the house, but unlike those before and after seemingly instant photos it's taking over a month to just finish what we've already started, but we're getting closer! We're taking a long weekend together without the kids this week up in Chicago and I'm excited! It will be nice to explore a new place and see one of my favorite all-time bands: Beach House. Anias: 23 Months I say new words like ...Poli (requesting the show Robocar Poli), mowing, kick it, mint, bike, night night, eat it, cereal, battery, sheep, chick, here you go Mama My favorite food is ...macaroni, but I also like hamburgers and won't hardly have a m
