Weekend Recap: Riley's First Christmas Edition

Christmas morning we got the kiddos out of bed, Charlotte was playing in her crib and Riley was slowly waking up as well. At this age there is no waking up at 4 am to open gifts, its waking up at 7:30 when it is time for a bottle for Riley! This momma is not complaining at all :)

So we got the kiddos out of bed, and Charlotte at first did not really register that she had toys from Santa until she took a double take and then the fun started!








She had cheetos in her stocking and immediately wanted to eat them! Funny girl 





She got a tea set, and Daddy opened it, so they had to play with it... Safe to say a fit occurred after we told her to stop playing with it. We hid it when she ran from the room haha. She got it back later :)

Baby's First Christmas! :) :) :) 


Such a good Christmas this year! But what a mess :)

Christmas breakfast.. Pancakes! Been that way since Scott and I got married and continues on now! 

Pancakes that make a face

Our big piano! We absolutely love playing on it, especially Charlotte 

Shorts and Christmas socks on Christmas day! It was 70 degrees here....so not Christmas weather! 



A wonderful neighbor got Charlotte a gift, and it was a Doc McStuffins medical bag and she absolutely loves it! She loves checking on her animals :) 

Christmas is exhausting for a 3 month old! Someone needed some extra cuddles to lay down 


On Christmas day we also went to my parents house so we could exchange gifts with them and my sister, and then we came home and the kids went to bed and Scott and I cleaned. It was crazy how messy the house got but after about an hour the kitchen was bake to normal after the crazy cookie baking and the living room was cleaned up and all tucked away! Scott and I went to bed exhausted and slept very well! Saturday was a day spent at home, except for the quick grocery store run we needed to make! We also brought Scott's truck back so he could leave early early Monday morning to go back to work! That night we held the kids in our arms and watched movies and it was such a nice peaceful evening. I held Riley and Scott held Charlotte and it just felt so peaceful and so right. It was an quiet evening of just us. Sunday was much the same where we didn't get out of our pajamas and just played with toys and ate all the junk and even put together our sugar cookie house we had baked, but not iced! It was a nice relaxing weekend of just the four of us and was a very nice and peaceful time. I had a wonderful holiday with my family and I hope everyone had a wonderful and safe holiday! 

The weather is absolutely awful this week so wherever you are stay safe and have a great Wednesday!

XOXO

Some much needed family fun!

It's been a bit hectic the last few days! We got up and went to church Sunday morning for the first time at a new church. The pastor was so funny and made a new church less scary for me! Then Charlotte went to Mimi's for a few hours and Scott and I ran a few errands, cleaned out the truck, and went to the pool hall to play a few rounds before going to get her. I don't know what it is about the pool hall but it always is a place we enjoy going, without baby of course! After we picked Charlotte up, we went home and relaxed for a few hours and watched tv and played COD:ghosts!( Another one of our couple things) Then I packed a bag for Charlotte, did Scott's laundry, and cleaned up the house. Finally I packed my bag. Why am I packing bags and cleaning up the house you ask? Well, Charlotte and I are with Scott this week going to Florida. We are going down to the gulf coast for a little sun, surf, and family time, and Scott has to work a day down there as well! Then we ar

Happy Memorial Day

Happy Memorial Day to all! It's been a wonderful family weekend! Unfortunately our Memorial Day ended early, since Scott is now headed to work. He has to be in Miami, 7 am tomorrow! Yuck. Luckily Monday is almost over and we only have to make it until Friday until we see him again! Trying to stay positive and look at it as a good thing, not a bad. It is hard to see him leave, but I know he has to go to work. Charlotte was sad but luckily nap time was soon after he left so she transitioned into sleep fine. She will be upset when she gets up in a few but lots of cuddles, cartoons and playing until bed time will keep her preoccupied. We are headed to the beach this weekend, and then staying down there for the week while Scott works, but we will all be together and Mommy and Charlotte will be looking at houses while Daddy works so we will stay occupied with that and lots of pool time! Cannot wait until this week is over. May is almost over, then June is here! Cannot believe that!

Weekend Recap: This Weekend Edition

Happy Tuesday! I hope everyone had a good Monday! We certainly did! We did not run around like crazy people and got Charlotte's big birthday gift from Momma and Daddy yesterday so all is on track for our princess turning 3 on Sunday! This past weekend started out slow with playing with all of our toys and stuffed animals  and taking lots of naps on the momma Saturday was spent cleaning, taking out the garbage to the dump and buying groceries. So Saturday we spent just getting ready for the week and taking care of everything we needed to get done for a busy week that we are currently in. We also took one more day of rest to recuperate from the stomach bug and allergies that made the rounds through our house.  Sunday we got out of the house because it was not too hot and not too chilly and it wasn't raining so it was the perfect day to go to the flea market.  The babies are watching a show which is why they are not looking at the camera, and we were sitt
