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

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! ...

Show and Tell Tuesday: School Photos

Happy Tuesday! Today I am joining Andrea for Show and Tell Tuesday's and today we are showing Worst School Pictures! I have a combination of good and bad school pictures just to mix it up a little bit!  Little baby Cat right before Pre-K!  Back in 2005, I was in middle school and going through a short hair and converse phase where I wore a lot of black and tried to fit in with a certain group of people! I was such a goof And Throwing it back to 2004! Aren't I just cute?!  Senior Year of High School  Senior Year pictures! I had ridiculously long hair that didn't like to cooperate for pictures! Then I chopped all of my hair off before going off to college Kept it short second year of college And finally grew it out and even colored it, I was in a rebellious stage it seemed! Those are my worst and best school pictures! I don't have too many pictures from my school days just because everything was thrown away when I lef...

Life Lately!

Happy Monday! Its a little life lately post to catch up on our past week! I started back to school for my Masters, Scott started his senior year of undergrad and life has gone crazy!  This little is working on sitting up, and finding all of his toys that he didn't know he had until he became mobile. He isn't crawling but he is really good at rolling himself around the place!  With sister in school all day these two are becoming best friends! I'll catch Skyler pulling R's hair, but I will also catch them laughing and playing and reading together! It's the sweetest little bond!  He enjoyed rolling himself underneath his crib a lot, all while I was sitting in the room with him! He loves to explore, even when it means momma has to rescue him from under the bed :P Afternoon cartons, goldfish and playing with toys We have been reading lots of books lately, we are going to the library this week to get some books but Ri has enjoyed reading wha...
