Capturing our adventures one photo at a time...
Happy Monday! Hope you all had as good and productive a weekend as we did. Some fun pictures of Spencey today very reminiscent of these from when Maxwell was 11 months. Those have always been some of my favorite pictures and I loved capturing Spencer doing almost the same thing at 15 months!
Over, under, around, and through!
Finally he makes his escape!
Who needs toys when there are dining room tables to be played with, right?!
Make it a great week and see you tomorrow!
Easy peasy – that’s how the tubes surgery went! Hooray! We got over to Children’s South bright and early around 5:50 am. Spencer wasn’t quite sure why he was up so early but had fun checking out the waiting room and making friends…
They then took us back and got everything ready to go. Every single person we encountered could not have been nicer or more helpful. Plus, we had several that said Barry (Susan’s husband who works at Children’s) had mentioned that they needed to be extra good to Spencer! 🙂 We felt very well taken care of!
Pre-surgery family selfie!
What? Doesn’t everyone take selfies before surgery? No? 🙂
They took him back and, I am not kidding, Dr. Bhuta was back in our room within 12 minutes to tell us it all went great. She said he did have some sitting fluid in his ears so they vacuumed that out and gave us some antibiotic drops. Other than going in for a checkup in 3 weeks, we’re all set! Spencer came out about 10 minutes later – with his puppy and apple juice in tow! – and was pretty groggy. They took all his vitals and had us hang out for a few more minutes to make sure he was ok, which he was despite a little fussiness.
We were back in the car by 7:45 and home eating breakfast by 8:30!
Spencer continued to do great all day. You couldn’t even tell he’d had anything done that morning! Now let’s hope we’re done with ear infections FOREVER!
Happy weekend to you all!
Tubes surgery scheduled for first thing this morning. I’m sure all will go fine and he’ll probably be back home asleep by 9:00.
I love this baby boy.
Will report in after the surgery.
Update – all went well and Spencer handled it like a champ! Back home and hoping for a good nap today!
Instagram faves of late.
Whole Foods helpers…
Oreo? What Oreo?
Just chillin’…
ps – that kid chillin’ in the chair is walking all over this house! He is on. the. move and not slowing down!
As I mentioned yesterday, I spent the weekend in Nashville with 3 of my longest friends…my “forever friends”. I’ve known one since preschool, one since kindergarten and one since 7th grade. We had the BEST time laughing, eating, laughing, shopping, and laughing. 🙂 I also got to see my great college friend that lives in Nashville while we were there. It was such a fun weekend with besties from all parts of life! I also have to say that Nashville is an AWESOME city. It was fun when I went to school there but it’s a completely different place now. So cosmopolitan and cultural but still maintains that down home feel. We had some of the best meals of my life and the whole city is such a hot spot of all things cool. Go Nash-vegas! If you’re planning a trip, do whatever you can to eat dinner at Rolf and Daughters. Ahhh-mazing. And go check out Pinewood Social. Great food and such a neat concept. We stayed at the brand new Omni (which was packed because there were auditions for The Voice next door!) and it was super nice and just fantastic all around.
The best part of the trip though was just getting to spend time with these girls…
By the way, as much as I love my new clutch and new Frye boots, this was my favorite purchase of the weekend!
I came home with two for two very sweet boys. 🙂
Meanwhile, back in the Ham, Robert was being the best dad ever and keeping the boys entertained with the swings, doughnuts, a trip to HD and even building a fort!
Go Dad!
As much fun as I had on my weekend away, the best part was definitely coming home…
Love my girls and love my boys!
