5 on Friday

Happy Friday everyone! Today I’m linking up with ladies of The Good Life, A. Liz Adventures, Carolina Charm, and Hello Happiness for 5 on Friday…and you should too! 

5 things that are rocking my world right now.

{one} This boy and this shirt. Too cute for words. Hudson was not really feeling my photo shoot….good thing we have ALL summer to take photos!

{two} I mentioned last week that Hudson is obsessed with Paw Patrol. Well, this mama happened to find her way to toys r’ us last week and stumbled upon Hudson’s new favorite toy. He wants to take it everywhere with him: to school, the bath, to bed…you name it. Hudson is straight up in love with his new toy. And I showed a considerable amount of mommy restraint by only buying him one. That’s Rubble, by the way…in case you don’t watch the show and have it memorized like I do!

{three} I finally got around to buying new bite valves for my camelbak water bottles. The colors! So fun! Obsessed is an understatement. Kicking myself for living with two cracked valves for so long. 
{four} My mom sent me this clip from the Today Show and of course it made me cry. Cats are awesome.

{five} Seriously, I’ve got nothing for #5. Hudson was in RARE form last night and I’m not firing on all cylinders this morning.  #mamaproblems

Happy Memorial Day weekend!

    Isn't it the best feeling when you get them a toy that they love and play with all of the time?!

    LOVE Hudson's shirt. Definitely thinking C might need one too. So cute! And loving that he adores the gift you bought him. So sweet – it feels so good to make our little guys happy, doesn't it? Gosh, it's fun being a Mama. It's nice to be someone's very favorite person in the whole word – for a few years at least;) Have a good weekend, Julie!

    Lex watched paw patrol for the first time last night (since she was in rare form too. Must've been the moon) and LOVED it!

    She's also reading over my shoulder and saying "see Hudson! See Hudson!".

    how cute is he?! love it.
    also love your new bite valves – we had such problems with our bottles we stopped using them shortly after we got them 🙁

    I'm not functioning properly over here either due to a lack of sleep (and it wasn't my choice either)!

    have you bought Hudson his own camelbak? Rae LOVES her and bonus! it's the only bottle that doesn't leak.

    I've heard about that cat video…omg!! Makes me rethink the value of our cat! 😉

  8. Megan says

    That cat is so badass, I need to show Sofia the video, she's obsessed with kittiessss!

    Hope you have a great holiday weekend! xo

    So excited that the Paw Patrol toys are finally in stores! I'm heading to ToysRUs today. Thanks for the heads up!

    You can buy replacement valves for camel bak bottles? Who knew! I seriously admire your control only buying 1 toy. I try to avoid TRU like the plague because I always get sucked into buying extra things… oh like I did this morning!

  11. DeNae vanWestrienen says

    May 23, 2014 at 8:12 pm

    I am never, repeat never, firing on all cylinders. I feel like maybe 1/3 of my cylinders? 🙂 I love the first picture. Perfect busy toddler picture!

    That shirt! Precious. I might have to snag one for our Hudson.

  13. Confessions of a Northern Belle says

    May 24, 2014 at 2:14 pm

    Totally random but the girl who made that shirt… she's my friend! Found you on the link-up – do you live in GA too?

  14. Ashley @ Life on the Parsons Farm says

    May 25, 2014 at 9:39 pm

    When I first started coaching I got all of my cheerleaders camelbacks but they didn't have enough for me. Well now I really wish I had one. I guess I'll get one soon!

    What! I didn't know they make new bite valves for camelbaks! Oh, if I only would have known! I threw my favorite one out! 🙁 super sadface!

    The cute pictures of Hudson did make me smile though! 🙂

5 on Friday

I don’t know if I’ve ever been so excited to see a Friday! This mama needs a break!

THE GOOD LIFE BLOG

I’m linking up with some of my favorite bloggers. Let’s get started!

 photo 1.jpg

{one} Teepee fun! Hudson got one of his birthday presents early because I couldn’t wait to put it together! To say he loves his custom designed teepee from Mallow & Graeme is an understatement. He loves hiding in it and especially loves when mommy crawls inside.

 photo 2.jpg

{two} We got our first Citrus Lane box this week and love it! Citrus Lane is a monthly gender and age specific subscription of fun goodies for your little one. This month we got a FREE outfit designed just for Hudson from FabKids ($39.95 value), Hudson’s new favorite toy: a Rubber Playground ball by Crocodile Creek, super cute Ouchies band aids, Clean Well Hand Sanitizing Wipes, Mighty Shield Bug Repellent Lotion, and a fun book called Octopus Opposites….all for just $25! The best part is opening up the box of surprises…it was like Christmas morning! Click HERE for $10 off your first box..trust me it’s worth it and so fun!

{three}The family that drinks from camelbaks together, stays together. Seriously, it’s the best water bottle ever. Hudson kept trying to steal mine so we bough him his own and he loves it! Order yours below….


{four} Cookie Dough Pretzel Bites. Need I say more? omg. I need these now!


{five} Don’t forget that the Kid Tested, Mom Approved link up party starts September 3rd! Next week we will all be posting blog buttons for everyone to use. More details can be found here….I hope you link up with us!

    I just signed up or Citrus Lane last week! I can't wait to get our first box- good to know its worth the money! I put his age as being a little older than he really is so we didn't get things he'd grow out of quickly.

    That teepee is amazing! 🙂 looks like he's loving it! Have a great weekend!
