Our Fourth of July Weekend

Happy Wednesday!

Today it is all about our Fourth of July weekend activities!
We started out our festivities with getting haircuts!

My hair was long, thick and very heavy so I needed something to make it through the hot and humid weather that we live in

So I cut it really short 

It curled up afterwards from being wet, but not washed. It took me a few days to get used to not having my long hair to just throw up into a bun but I love it now! 

After haircuts and lunch at our favorite pizza place we went and bought lots of fireworks! Riley saw Daddy and decided to stand up while we were in line. You can see Charlotte's little arm reaching for Riley! He sat down right after but it was cute to see them interacting! 

After naps, we went to the town 10 minutes north of us and went to the fireworks festival and made silly faces while waitng

He was throwing puffs at me

Then getting very serious when he saw them again

My sweet hubs! He also cut his hair! 

They had a farmer's market while we were there and someone was holding an alligator

and had another one behind him

The hubs and I

Riley and Daddy watching the fireworks! Riley loved them. The loud noises did not phase him at all

He even let Daddy  hold him up with his bottle 

Charlotte on the other hand, wanted nothing to do with them. She tackled me when they started and stayed in this position the whole time. 

My sweet babies! 

The next day we grilled out for dinner and did our own fireworks


and sparklers! The babies were in bed but they didn't hear a thing and slept all night! 

 
Third Fourth of July for this cutie! 
A little throwback of Charlotte's First Fourth of July! She was so very little! :) 

First Fourth of July for this sweet boy

The Fourth of July we wore our red white and blue but stayed home and just did pretty much nothing. Scott had to leave for work that night so we just relaxed but still had a good day!
These cuties are so sweet! I loved the outfits for the Fourth of July! 

So we started out Fourth of July busy, and ended it at home relaxing. It was a fun weekend of celebrating America and I really loved seeing Charlotte understand a little more of what were were talking about as the weekend went on.

Have a great Wednesday everyone! 
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...
