Relaxing Weekend


I have been a horrible blogger the last several days, honestly just enjoying some time away from the computer!  But, I'm back! =)

There really wasn't a lot to our weekend.  Friday we enjoyed getting a pedicure with Nanny.  Avery saw me pull out the nail polish to do my toes & started going crazy for me to polish hers too.  So we decided to just take her to get a pedicure!  But, a little tantrum got the best of her so she ended up not getting hers polished!

This was before she had enough of the waiting.  Luckily Chad was off early so he watched her while Mom & I got a treat!

So excited to go!


Saturday was pretty relaxed.  We enjoyed looking at cars, & spending the afternoon together.  We enjoyed the evening at the pool & then running errands with Chad to Lowes!


We recently have added a little gazebo to our backyard to enjoy during the summer.  So we picked up a few things at the store & got this adorable candle holder.





Sunday the guys golfed so my parents & sister in laws came over to swim!  I heart pool days!





Can you believe Tiff (next to me) is almost 6 months pregnant looking hot in her bikini!?



It was a great day wtih some of my favorite gals!

Water Baby

Today was another summer day at the pool!


How precious are these legs?


And this smile?

 

Mommy is DESPERATE for a pedicure, but thanks for the water darling!


Snack time!


Ready for some TGIF!

ER visit & MISC!

Yesterday evening was pretty eventful for our family.  Avery was playing with my in-laws while I ran out to an appt & as she was running she turned her neck funny & proceeded to scream the rest of the evening in pain.  As a Mother of course I got worried so we rushed her into the ER.

{Pictures taken on my phone}

At least she has a big smile on her face!


After a few hours of sitting & waiting we learned that it was just a bad crick in her neck.  We got very lucky last night because the doctor on call was actually a pediatrician doctor.  He was AMAZING with my little Avery & fixed her right up; as well as easing our fears that something was horribly wrong.


The nurses gave Avery the sweetest bear before we left & she clinched it tight while we were leaving the hospital.  She even curled up with it before bed.


We are so thankful she is okay.  Today she has been resting a ton.  We have kept a heating pad on her neck most of the day & she seems to be acting a million times better.

So what else is going on?

My friends baby shower is coming up 2 Saturdays from this weekend & we are busy planning.  We got the invites today & we are so excited!  Her theme is birds & owls for her little boy Preston's nursery.


We have some fun personalized things planned for the shower that I can't wait to share afterwards!


We came up with the theme from her baby room... which by the way she painted the wall completely by herself!  AMAZINGLY talented!

The room is very shabby chic- this is a small peek.


So with all the madness going on in our lives with babies- (good madness I might add)- I decided it was time to get my life straight with a planner.  I keep double booking myself, missing appointments & forgetting everything! 

This should do it!  Say hello to my newest BFF!


I have had tons of e-mails on my cute fun summer hat!  I have millions of these styles of hats, they are my thing this summer...


Their web page is in the process of being completed but I got it at a local shop in our area called, "Whimsy Woo".  You may remember but the girl that did Avery's Paul Frank mirrors & cupcake stand for her 2nd Birthday is the owner of this shop.  I absolutely adore this girl she is amazingly talented too & everything in her store is my style!  Check some of her pictures out!  I hope to possibly sale a few wreaths during the Holiday in her store!

My sister in law is having some goodies done for her babies room!



Stay tuned on the hats, I will be talking to her to see if you can order from her store & will post information! 

Please let me know if you are interested & add your e-mail to the comment so I can keep you in the loop.



And finally, I added a "Party Fun" page at the very top of my blog that shows some parties I have done with links to the parties to see more pictures.  I get tons of questions about this kind of stuff so I thought it would be neat to have a gallery to answer some of your questions & to have a visual. 

I also added a "My decorating" page with all of my fun Holiday decor.  As each Holiday rolls around I will keep the page updated.  Per my readers request, I will also post some pictures of the rooms in our home. 

ENJOY!

Lake, Pool, Swim!

It's been a great few days!  My Aunt & Cousins & their kids have been in town from Tennesee so we have been eating up the sun at the pool & on the lake at my parents!

Monday evening we enjoyed tubing on the lake with everyone!














The "Captain"- my sweet Daddy!



We spend the entire afternoon at our pool swimming it up before the lake!

{Mom & her sister are super close & are precious!  My Aunt is the most sweetest woman I think I have ever met!}







I can't keep Avery out of the water this summer, she is my little swimmer!



My cousins baby is precious, he is 8 months!



Oh how we love summer!  Happy Tuesday!
