Hey Friday

So happy to see Friday come around! This little lady and her brother have been conspiring against me in the sleep department this week, so I’m looking forward to a little down time……oh but wait, I have to pack up my house this weekend instead. Yay me.

Thank you all for your sweet comments on our new house news!  It turns out a lot of you want all the details (yay!) so I’ll be spilling them for you as we go. Yesterday we made a trip over to the house and the first floor was totally framed! Some rooms felt big and some felt smaller than we thought…which we were told is normally what happens during this stage. So fingers crossed it all feels right once the walls are really up. There have been a lot of sleepless nights already over this house, so I’m praying it all turns out how we pictured! We’ve been calling it “the land” for forever and every night Hudson begs to “go to the wand please mommy?” He was totally digging this big digger.

Hudson is still all over the place with his Halloween costume requests. This week he decided he wanted to be Captain America. He has never seen any of the movies or toys but Captain America and his gang of friends are on his tooth brush and tooth paste and he’s obsessed. We’ll see who he wants to be next week. Hudson was pretty excited about his “spooky bat bag” our friends at Peekawho sent him! Sadie got a pumpkin one and both kids have their name embroidered on them….love it! You can see them on Peekawho’s site here. Use code “BOOREDSHOES” for 10% off trick or treat bags.

Does anyone use Huggies Reward points? I’ve been collecting them since Hudson wMore details here.

as little and keep cashing them in for Gap/Old Navy gift cards! For the next two days they are doubling the value of rewards points…so don’t miss out!

Have a great weekend my friends!

    I even felt some rooms felt smaller once we did the walk through in the empty house… It's weird how furniture can actually make a room seem bigger sometimes. So I can only imagine how it would be when you just see framed rooms! Can't wait to see all the details as the process continues! Have fun packing and hopefully you can get some rest too!

    Congrats on your new house! Exciting stuff! I always see Huggies rewards info on our wipes but never looked into it. I didn't know you could trade them for Gap gift cards. Thanks for the info!

    Hooray for Friday, indeed! 🙂 When we built a house growing up, my sister and I LOVED going to 'the land' and playing in the rocks and dirt. Love that picture of Hudson on the machine 🙂

    Hudson on heavy machinery – it's a good look for him.

    I feel ya' on the no-sleep thing – my son has been out to get me this entire week. No amount of under eye concealer can hide these under-eye bags. Love your blog!

    Ah, Cam LOVES all super heroes right now, but he never watches them and doesn't have any figurines. I have no idea where the obsession came from; I blame it on school. 😉 Have a great weekend!

    So excited for your family! Sorry it took me so long to comment! I always end up reading my blogs on my iPhone when I am nursing at night (when the 2 yr old is asleep!) I have to get my daughter her Halloween costume asap although she is set on being a princess and I am not sure I can start that yet.

Hey Friday

I can’t believe it’s Friday! Life with two kids seems to be flying by in a blur of sleepless nights, belly laughs, baby smiles, sticky hands, and lots of memories made. The days kind of run together and then all of a sudden it’s the weekend….not complaining but time needs to SLOW DOWN.

 photo IMG_0273.jpg
This is hands down my new favorite photo of sweet Sadie Mae. I know I’m biased but dang she’s so cute! After snapping these photos she took an epic nap all snuggled up in this crate in my living room. Love her so. (headband by Ellia May Designs)

Speaking of sleep, this little muffin slept from 10pm until 5:45am last night! Who is this girl? I know better than to expect that every night (the night before she was up every two hours) but I’ll take what I can get! Neither of my kids are the best sleepers so I’m just thankful for a full night of sleep every now and then….even if I still wake up at 3am to check if she’s still breathing.

Let’s get back to that sweet sleeping babe…..

This week I’m SO exited to share with you that my good friends at Peekawhoo have launched a brand new website and it is full of adorableness!  Sadie is wrapped up in their Monogrammed Bow Swaddle and it is the sweetest thing ever! It’s the softest blanket with the cutest bow. I just about died when I wrapped her up in it!

 photo IMG_9813.jpg

Peekawho also is behind Hudson’s cute duffle and travel bag. We take these to swim lessons ever week and people keep stopping me to ask where they are from! I tried to get Hudson to pose for a photo but you know….toddlers.

Right now use code “LAUNCHJR” for 20% off your purchase a Peekawhoo! Now is the time to pick up a Monogrammed Bunny! As you know we LOVE ours and they make the most perfect new baby gifts….or even save it for Easter! This code is kind of a big deal and good for one week only so hurry!!!

In other news, this happened. #HeartExploded

p.s…..don’t forget about my #MoreMinutes post. I would LOVE it if you got more info HERE. Thanks my friends!

Have a great weekend my friends! Linking up with these lovely ladies….

    Fun fives, lady! l love the first picture, so so sweet. And that bunny is such a cute gift idea, i'll keep it in my pocket for my next friend that's prego :)! So glad you are getting Hudson swim lessons, that's so smart! You don't want him to be scared of the water growing up and it's so nice knowing they can stay above water. Props, mama! Happy Friday, pretty!

    That monogrammed bow swaddle…. holy cow. It makes me think my friends working on baby #2 (read: all of them) need to have some more GIRLS.

    That bow blanket!!!! DYING:) Sadie is the perfect model for it! And how sweet are those monogrammed bags for Hudson. Caleb is in need of a bigger bag for overnights at the grandparents, etc. His current bag is just too small – he's had it since he was tiny. Will be popping over to Peekawho to check it out! Have a wonderful weekend, Julie!

    I have been swooning over that bow swaddle since I saw it the other day! So so sweet – hopefully I'll get to get one for our next adoption! We shall see. And that bunny, not sure if Ellie really needs another one but oh my it's so cute!!
