Oops.

Lucas has a big boy room we just finished. It is baseball themed. Not all sports, JUST baseball. This took me months of finding ONLY baseball stuff, since everything has basketball and football on it as well. I also signed him up for his first year of t-ball this year. This is the last thing out of his mouth:

"Mommy can I play football instead of baseball next time?"

Crap.

Bedtime Story

Bet you thought I would be reading it huh? Nope. My smart cookie little baby Lulu memorized this book word for word, and I only read it to him twice. I know it is only 4 pages but wow. He is so proud. Gotta love it.:)

My kids and their weirdness...

Hey, they don't get it from me! NO WAY! I think they get it from their father... yeah yeah, Cag looks so calm and quiet all the time. Take two minutes out of your life and listen in on him playing with our boys. He goes from 26 year old Operations Manager and football obsessed dad, to a 3 year old that thinks the word "poot" is the funniest word in the world. But ya know what? He is the best daddy this world has to offer, just ask those kiddos of ours! We wouldn't trade him for the world.

Moving on, this is my 3 year old trying to say ravioli. Bless him, he says it "rabiloli". No matter how many times he tries. So stinkin' cute. This is the same 3 year old that just entertained a bus school full of elementary kids by peeing in the middle of the front yard while they were stopped at the neighbors house. He thoroughly embarrassed his big bro. OMG Blake is starting to get embarrassed??



Not this child.....



Yes friends, this is his "model" walk. He says that models always stomp around on runways, and this is his version. Notice the music noises and everything. I love this kid. This is the child that was so embarrassed. Love it.

I love my kids.

PS- WHY did I not know that the Real Housewives of Atlanta is back on? I have been watching for it forever and I have missed two episodes?? Thank God for DVR.

PSS- I had a dream that Ryan from Teen Mom was my BFF. We went to dinner together. It was not a date, we were just best buds. He is such a cutie, why does he have to be such a butt? Although I am starting to think after the finale last night that he wants Maci back!!!
At least this was better than my dream last week that me and Cag had replaced Sam and Ronnie on Jersey Shore. Oh yeah, and Cag was all beefed up and I even called him a "gorilla juice head" at some point in that dream. I was hanging with Snooki and he was hanging with the Situation. Doing the whole GTL routine and all. I wonder how long that dream actually was. Wow. I need to start going to bed earlier so I don't have so many strange dreams....

Thank You Mr. Cox...

Thank you for 25 amazing seasons. You are truly a legend!

Cabinet Makeover

This cabinet was made by my papa probably about 25 years ago. He made it for my mom, and made an identical one for my nanny (which she still has sitting in her kitchen). When I realized my mom's old one was sitting in their basement, I decided I wanted to bring it home with me.
The finished product!!!


I just painted it and added new knobs and I love it. The fact that my papa made it makes it all the better and I bet this is one thing we will keep forever!

Lucas' First Tiny Tots Game

My baby boy started baseball about a month ago, and this past Saturday he had his very first game ever! They are a 3 and 4 year old tiny tots team and their name is The Little Rascals! I love it!
The whole team! Aren't they precious?
I am partial to number 8! HA!
"Trying" to hit the ball. He has this thing where he swings... and stops right before he gets to the ball. Then he taps it. HA! I like this pic because it looks like he is really hitting it, when in reality, it just fell on top of home plate! Bless his heart. He will get it, he is only 3!
To be honest, this is the only picture that he wasn't playing in the dirt when he had to stand in one spot....
Base running! It was so entertaining, he would run to first, then pitcher's mound. Then second, then pitcher's mound. Then third, then pitcher's mound. Bless him! This age is so awesome to watch!
Good game guys!
You know I will have tons more pics up soon!

God Bless!

GO DAWGS

It's the first official game of the season, and down south we love us some college football, especially the Dawgs! My husband lives for this time of year. We all love it and with him having a "man cave" now, I decided I had to decorate it in University of Georgia: what else? The man bleeds black and red.

The sports stores in the mall can be really expensive, so I made him some prints for one of his walls. Here they are:

I took two 16x20 canvases and some red and black paint that I had on hand, printed out the large letters and cut them out (very carefully, I don't have any vinyl). Then I sprayed a little stencil adhesive on the backs and arranged the letters how I wanted them. I painted over them and peeled off the letters, and VOILA!

Sorry for the poor quality, camera is dead and I took it with my cell phone.

Have a blessed day!
