Oh, Baby!

-
As Mother's Day approaches this weekend,  I just can't get over how many of my good friends are now mothers or will be so in the next couple months.  How quickly our lives change… not so long ago (ok, I guess like 10 years, but it sure doesn't seem that long) we were waking up late after a long night of partying.  Now we text one another at 7 in the morning complaining of a headache from a glass or two of wine.

 I cannot wait for my best friend Tara to pop that baby of hers out… she's not finding out the sex and it's killing me, though for the record I'm putting my money on a boy.  Possibly Lana's future husband.  This past weekend I went south for Tara's baby shower while the girls stayed home with daddy.  It was so wonderful to celebrate Tara, her hubby, and their soon to be bundle of joy.
Love and miss these girls so much!
Onesie decorating… Baby Reddy will be stylin'
The winning onesie… picked by Tara and Prahlad… nice choice!
It's going to be one beautiful baby
That's a good looking diaper cake if I do say so myself!

 

Tara and Brett paid us a visit on Tuesday so they could see the girls and Lana could see her BFF Isla.  They are so darn adorable together.



Tomorrow we are heading over to Fort Myers.  Neveah is getting her first communion on Sunday.  Can't wait to see everyone and let my girlies be loved on.

As I sit here, drinking my pumpkin spice creamer (with a splash of coffee) and munching some pumpkin bread I’m trying to tie my jumble of pictures together into a post that makes some sort of sense… and pretty much getting nowhere.   It’s been a bit chaotic around here… not really sure why… but can’t seem to bring the focus in to get a blog post done.   So with the focus thrown out the window, here is what we have been up to lately... Tara paid us a visit not to long ago and we got to   meet her little beauty, Priya.   Love that girl as does my Kaelyn. Smart girl... knows the best team in college football!  (thanks for the photo bomb Josh!)   We may have a little volunteer fire fighter on our hands… as long as she doesn’t have to hold onto the hose too tight.  For Kaelyn’s first birthday we got her a bike trailer that we cruised around in all of three times in Jupiter and haven’t touched since… until now.   We live super close to a beautiful p

Appreciating: November!

AHHHH!  Prepping for a new baby and holidays make for one crazy combo in my world.  So here we are, February knocking on the door, and I am finally posting our November, December, and January.  Better late than never I suppose.  It's been a super busy three months, but we have celebrated Thanksgiving, a new niece, Christmas, and prepared for a new arrival by moving the girls into one room and getting his nursery ready to go. And now, November.. We have moved up in gymnastics... now both girls get to play while mama sits.  My kind of gymnastics class.   We traveled to Tampa for Thanksgiving this year.  No baking involved... Ruth Chris Steak House for the win. A Thanksgiving celebration at school Daddy Daughter Date Our annual tree selection ceremony.  This year I was pretty insistent on the tree we chose... which ended up being a dud and hardly making it through Christmas.  Oops.

Happy Birthday Chad

Today, January 25 th , we would be celebrating my brother’s 33 rd birthday.  When I think of him passing at the age of twenty, one of the first thoughts that always enters my head is being sad for him that he never reached legal drinking age.  I couldn’t wait for this day when I was twenty, but honestly, he probably could have cared less.  Chad didn’t get into trouble.  He was quiet, kind, responsible, thoughtful, tall, handsome… any mamma’s dream child. Chad lived a peaceful and content life at home with my Mom, Cassie, and Jack.   He loved his video games and actually liked his job at Federal Express.   Nothing breaks my heart more than not being home with him and my family his last couple years.   As the years pass, my memories fade, and that is gut wrenching.   I have tried and tried to remember the last time we were together or our last conversation, and both have vanished.   I do know the last time we talked over the phone we had discussed something about my cat, an
