Daddy Day

-
I have tried to sit down about three times today to bang this post out… and have gotten distracted everytime.  I shouldn’t phrase it that way…. this is a dedication to my  baby daddy and he deserves a well thought out speech but I have a baby screaming at me… in the cutest, happiest manner possible and have also been awake since 4:30 am with this little cutie pie so I am gonna do my best.

But first things first… a very happy Father’s Day to my own father.  I have many fond memories of my childhood that involve my old man and am lucky that now my girls get to make their own memories with their Grandpa.  We love you!




We were also lucky to have Poppy and CeCe visit last weekend.  The girls had so much fun as did we.  I think someone needs to get a beach house in Indian Harbour… hint, hint, hint!


Now back to that man who I am lucky to call the father of my children.  We have been busy today… brunch, beach, and playing with the little ladies… followed by quite the delicious dinner if I do say so myself.  It’s been an incredible journey so far… he is one amazing daddy.  Kaelyn can't wait for him to get home in the evenings… she runs towards the door… "daddy home" she says.  Then daddy does the Dirty Dancing scene with her… where Johnny lifts Baby into the air.  Possibly the cutest thing on the whole planet.  Lana loves her daddy something fierce.  She literally just watches him move around the room and smiles her cutest smile at him.   I couldn't ask for more… my girls and I are some lucky ladies!



I started this post at five… it is now 8:30.  Time to make some Nutella Strawberry Milkshakes for that wonderful hubby of mine and attempt to stay awake for Game of Thrones… thank goodness for DVR!!

Some pictures that Poppy and CeCe took… makes me want a new camera REALLY bad!  (hint, hint, hint hubby!)

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. ...

Good-Bye 2015

Happy New Year!  We actually stayed awake long enough this year to say good-bye to 2015.  We even made it out which I don't think has happened since we had our two beauties.  You better believe the minute that clock hit midnight we were hailing the first Uber driver available to get us home.  This was mainly due to Kaelyn being awoken by the barrage of fireworks and not being able to settle until she had her mama passed out in her bed. We said good-bye to Nonnie yesterday after a week and a half of time together.  We were able to celebrate Christmas and say hello to the New Year together and it was oh so special.  Aunt Kelly and Ethan also joined in on the fun for a few days. Nonnie brought all of these presents We watched our tree, Dingo (Kaelyn named him), be hauled off yesterday and have taken down the last twinkling light.  We didn't let the year and the warm weather leave us without a final trip to our favorite spot. ...

How Did We Get Here?!? Kaelyn’s First Day of Preschool (and some serious catching up!)

I had no intention of putting my eldest daughter in school this year.  I figured I would reap the last drops of my sweet girl before she began the never-ending journey that is her education.  I have a sappy heart and for selfish reasons didn't want to let my girl go.  Well after a discussion with Kaelyn on the prospect of school and the enthusiasm she didn't try to hide from weak old mom... I decided to let my little bird fly.   After asking around and checking it out online we decided on a local school that just so happened to have two available spots… one for Kaelyn and one for her bestie, Luke.   After touring the school… Kaelyn was sold and there was no looking back.   Which brings us to today.   Kaelyn marched down the hallway and made herself at home in her new classroom.     I was the mom that was in the car loop twenty minutes early after the longest three hours of my life.   She  got in the car and proceeded ...
