Make it a great one!
ps – sounds like MaMa to me! 🙂
Monday Monday
Happy Monday! The weekends are never long enough, are they? I have figured out one way to make them feel longer though…go out on Friday night! Robert and I went out to dinner on Friday night and that still leaves you all day Saturday AND Sunday to rest up and get things done. Unfortunately, we aren’t that well rested because we were up way too late watching a disappointing AL game on Saturday night. Oh well and still Roll Tide! Other things around here the past few days…
Hanging out the window in carpool line on Thursday (I decided we shouldn’t stick our heads out the sunroof anymore so this is the next best thing)…
Camo day on Friday (what? your Fridays aren’t themed?!)…
and, yes, that shirt does say “Always on active Doodie!” ha!
Saturday was birthday party day! Spencer got to go to Murray’s party where he bounced and bounced and bounced…
and then ate ice cream and cupcakes with Hamp and Walker!
We then left to go meet Robert and Maxwell at Wilson’s party at Off The Wall! Needless to say, both boys had a great morning and took really good naps that afternoon!
Sunday was church…Maxwell is such a big kid now. No more cutesy check pants for him. All grown up with his khakis and button-downs!
There was no soccer game on Sunday but we’ll be back out there next weekend! Here’s to a great week ahead!
BIRTHDAY!
Today is a very, very special day!
It’s the birthday of the one and only awesome GJ!
She helps us in every possible way,
and even lets the boys climb on her when she comes to stay!
We love her so much and always want her here to play,
We just wish she didn’t live so far away!
So, help us celebrate and shout HOORAY!
HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO YOU, GJ!
Pretty weather
The weather around here has just been pretty. A slight chill in the air in the mornings and plenty of sunshine. Fall is coming and that brings new jackets….
and pants!
She looked so cute in her little leggings I could hardly stand it!
The weather was so nice out we even put up the bounce house!!
Something tells me Spencer enjoyed the bounce house a little more than Samantha! 🙂
Have a great day!
Beautiful day in the hood
It was a beautiful day in the neighborhood, a beautiful day in the neighborhood…. so we went for a scooter ride! We scooted over to the bakery to get some bread and cookies…
stopped to check out the creek…
and then scooted up to the park to play and eat those cookies!
It really was a BEAUTIFUL day and I loved getting to enjoy our neighborhood. As I’ve said before, sometimes I feel like we live in Mayberry! The only problem with Mayberry? People like to have dogs…big dogs that bark very loudly and run full force towards Maxwell and scare him TO DEATH. He was scooting along the sidewalk and these two dogs came running out barking so loud and poor Maxwell started screaming the most piercing scream and took off as fast as his little legs could take him. They startled and scared me too! Thankfully, they were stopped by their invisible fence. Maxwell was hysterical and scared and Spencer was screaming too. We made it on up to the park where we had another run-in with a little dog and Maxwell did NOT like that either. He even said to the owner “Shouldn’t he be on a leash?!” Ha! But, true. I have 100% sympathy for Maxwell because I was afraid of dogs as a kid and still am not a dog person in any way, shape or form. People always say “But this dog is so sweet. He wouldn’t hurt anyone!” That doesn’t matter. It’s a phobia just like being afraid of spiders or heights and Maxwell was definitely born with an internal fear of dogs. Needless to say, we’ll never have a pet pooch!
Regardless of the dog run-in, it was still a great afternoon…
and a beautiful day in the neighborhood!
