Happy Monday!
See that little baby squinting in the sun next to his big brother? He’s going to be 1 on Friday. Where did the time go?
I cannot wait to celebrate this giggling little boy…
and his baby blues!
He’s just a little ray of sunshine every single day and I’m so happy he’s my sunshine!
It’s going to be a great week!
I know October was going to be busy! Lots of birthdays, travel and fun stuff going on. There’s a reason October is my favorite month!
Just catching up on a few things going on around here. We’ve been….
Sending important emails…
Getting dirty outside during the day and then getting clean in the bath at night…
(is there anything better than a clean baby all snug in his pj’s? nope, there’s not.)
Having playdates…
Playing with toys a flashlight (and dressing like twinkies!)…
Getting to see Susan’s twin grandsons…
and just generally having a happy time!
Life is as good as it should be in October! Have a great weekend!
Happy 10/10! A few more pictures from last week…
Love these silly boys!
I didn’t get a cake from a box for my birthday – but I did get a trip to Miami and an awesome fire truck birthday card from my boys! 🙂
On Friday of last week, I left the boys with Robert and hopped on a plane to head to South Beach for a reunion with 13 of my best friends from Vandy. This trip had been a year in the planning and 14 out of 15 girls in our group were able to make it. Unbelievable really! While all of our lives have taken us down different paths, it was SO good to catch up, laugh about old times and talk about what’s new. It was a such a treat to be reminded of how great my Vanderbilt experience was and what truly impressive girls I met there. It was also such a treat to sit by the beach, sleep in and enjoy some fantastic food! Quite the way to ring in 35!
Robert VERY nicely held down the fort and took great care of both boys all weekend with plenty of trips to the tot lot…
As much fun as I had, I literally could not wait to get back home to my boys. All 3 of them picked me up at the airport and I was so happy to be there that I just had to sit in the backseat between the car seats so I could love on Spencer and Maxwell! Before we could even get home, Maxwell had already told me all about the “oh-runj” picture he had drawn for me and the firetruck birthday card (that played music!) and “oh-runj” flowers that he and Robert had gotten me! That kid can’t keep a secret! 🙂
On the morning of my actual birthday, Robert had to catch a 7am flight to New Orleans for work. boo. But, I got to spend the day with my 2 other favorite little dudes…
and that’s about the best birthday present I could ask for!
Thank you so much for all the calls, texts, emails and FB messages! I really appreciated every one!!
We celebrated Robert’s birthday on Thursday of last week. Robert requested a chocolate chocolate cake. Turning 37 is a pretty big deal so I pulled out all the stops and made him a cake from a box…and then iced it with icing from a can…and it was darn good. 🙂 Maxwell decorated the cake…
Orange sprinkles and a variety of animal candles all placed by him. Perfect! I kept catching him sneaking a lick of that icing…
Guess he likes the canned icing too!
The boys were so excited to celebrate Dad’s birthday and couldn’t wait for him to get home from work…
We had a nice little birthday dinner and then all enjoyed that cake…
especially Spencey!
It might not have been the exciting birthday parties of his youth, but I think he liked his little family party just as much…
box cake and all. 🙂
