Mommy Life

Welcome to the world to our sweet boy Skyler James!  He was born on Sunday February 17, 2019 at 11:41 am at 8 lbs, 11 oz and we are so smitten and in love! After a week off, I am finally back into the swing of things of our routine with driving to and from school and doing all things mom life such as dishes, laundry and cooking meals. Taking it super slow and easy but still able to get through the days relatively well! Skyler is a wonderful boy who has had some jaundice problems, but nothing we can't overcome together! Big sister and brother are absolutely smitten with him as well and love to help out as much as they can, even if it means holding his hand and talking to him! So very blessed by our newest blessing and cannot wait to see where this life leads!                                      So there you have it, we have welcomed another sweet boy into our lives and are now back into our daily lives of work, school and play! Stay tuned for all the fun! Tha

Happy Friday!  We made it through another long week! It has cooled down here this week and we started out the week with lots of rain! Then we had sickness, missed class pictures, Valentine's Day, and lots of sunshine later in the week to help pull us through! It's been a fun one!  Today I am linking up with Andrea , Narci , and Erika to show some Friday Favorites from the week!  One  This boy was happy to have sunshine and cool weather this week! We got to sit in the parking lot with the windows down before picking Char up and he enjoyed looking out his window and waving to people!  Two  Watching the sunset from my front porch is my favorite! We have the perfect location for our house, because they won't be building anymore houses across from us, so we get the perfect views to watch the sun go down, and the sunsets this week for my favorite for sure!  Three  Crafting with my girl is always a favorite! I am not very crafty but

Happy Thursday!  It's Valentine's Day! Anyone doing anything special? I have my last doctor's appointment to check up on little baby #3 before he is born Sunday, unless he decides to come earlier, and probably making some sort of treat with the littles, but other than that not much is going on this year! Today I am sharing what is in the diaper bag for the hospital! With it being a new hospital this time around, I have no idea what to expect! The hospital where my other three were delivered provided everything from clothes to diapers, so we will see how this time goes!  I will post a what I didn't use from this bag, once he is born and we are home! :)   This is the diaper bag I will be using with baby #3. Same one that I used with Riley, and its the brand Eddie Bauer. I got it from Target back when I was pregnant with Riley, and it is no longer sold there, but this one is similar to the one I have!  I'm probably going to switch to a backpack dia

This weekend was full of productive time, playing time, and resting time!  Friday  I spent most of the morning finishing up packing the rest of my hospital bag, and getting everything in one place so we have it all! Babies clothes have been washed for a couple weeks now, but I was doing last minute washing of my clothes, since at this point I can only wear certain things, so I wanted to wait until last minute to throw those in my bag! We also had time to play outside, and this little guy enjoyed running around the trees and trying to balance on the rocks!  and of course we cannot start our weekend off without Pizza Friday! I did something different this week though, and actually made the pizza by hand, with homemade crust and everything! #yummy We ended Friday with reading and cuddles, which was the perfect way to end a long day!  Saturday Saturday was spent outside all day! It was sunny, but cool so these two enjoyed running around, ri

Happy Friday!  It has been a crazy busy week this week, but it feels like it dragged on so slow! I'm excited to take a break this weekend and just chill out with the littles, since we have no plans again! I guess being on Baby Watch will do that right?!  9 more days until Baby #3 comes into this world, and its safe to say I am super excited! I cannot wait to cuddle this new little!  Today I am linking up with Andrea , Narci , and Erika for Friday Favorites, and it is just another random mixture of things that have happened this week! :)  One The weather has been absolutely gorgeous this week! Highs in the 70s and low 80s so after school we have been playing outside and it has been a favorite for these kiddos! They love being outside and if it means they sleep even better at night then this momma is all for it!   Two  Not quite sure when she got so big, but this girl lost a tooth this week, and it was a definite favorite of the week! She

Happy Monday! We had a super relaxed weekend full of movies, and cuddles and only leaving the house once to buy groceries! It was exactly what I needed, since I have fully hit hibernation mode of my pregnancy! 2 more weeks before baby #3 is here and I am trying to soak in all the time with my two babies that I can before life is just thrown into chaos!  Pizza Friday! I remembered to take a picture after I had already scarfed down a slice!  We stayed bed all morning Saturday and just watched movies and played with toys and cuddled!  I made my grocery list, even though I didn't do Walmart Pick up today, since I was meeting the hubby and we were going grocery shopping together!  The kiddos had a blast running around with daddy and pushing the cart with him!  Sunday we didn't get out of our pajamas, and these two let momma sleep until 9 am. They played quietly with their toys and didn't come get me until then! It was nice :)  Sund

Happy Friday and February 1st!   So glad it is finally Friday! We had a full week of school and for some reason, whenever we have our first full week back after a four day week, it seems to just drag on!  Today I am joining Andrea , Narci , and Erika and posting my Friday favorites for the week!  Monday we received our favorite kind of mail, new books! :) My mom reads to the kids every night over FaceTime, and this week she sent some new books for the kiddos!  They were so excited they immediately started reading them! Reading is a big favorite in our house, if we aren't playing with toys then we are reading our favorite books!  Tuesday was freezing cold, and this little in his leather jacket is a favorite for this mom. Not only did he not fight me putting it on, but he looks just so darn cute wearing it!  We have spent a lot of time upstairs and a favorite for this guy is laying on my bed and watching cartoons.  I love watching
