We’ve had an exciting week over here. Lots of fun stuff! Let’s get to it.
{ONE} Earlier in the week I blogged about a couple of diy projects. I made a cedar shim sunburst mirror and I made a fake plant look real. Both were fun, easy and inexpensive. You can read more about both projects here.

This boy.
He may have to start wearing these glasses all the time due to the “adorable-ness” factor!

Speaking of Henry, he did something amazing this week. I know, I know…this is another #proudmamamoment, but I must brag about him. Besides, this could possibly not happen again for another year! You just never know with kids. LOL!
So, Henry likes to make books by using a stapler (with Mama close by, of course) and then he likes to draw/write on the inside and the outside of the “book.”
He handed me a bag and told me to unwrap it (he insists that I “unwrap” everything by using scissors to carefully cut it open). When I opened it, this is what I found!
Look.what.he.did!
The inside of the book is a roller coaster, obviously. 😉
He nonchalantly told me that he knows how to draw an M and an O now, so he wrote MOM. Really kid?! I guess their brains really are sponges.
That moment totally fell into the top 10 most memorable moments with/of him.
So proud, so proud… 🙂

We went to our nephew’s first birthday party over the weekend. The weather was gorgeous and the kids had a blast! Eliza loved playing on the swing set and running over to check on the pony! I love watching her play – so much sweetness.
Oh and my brother’s house is surrounded by these wind turbines. They’re always cool to see, not to mention the fact that Henry was thoroughly entertained for miles and miles! Very cool.

The boat is in!
Bring it, summer!
This picture was taken after our first boat ride of the year! The kids loved it and they were soooo well-behaved.
Now we just need warmer weather!
Thanks for stopping by! I sure do appreciate it. 🙂
Boy! Where do I begin? It’s been a busy and hilarious week over here, so I’m going to have to go ahead and break the rules and play catch up. Here we go! {ONE – THE ELSA WIG SAGA CONTINUES} Let’s start here. You guys, this wig. This wig. She cracks me up! {TWO…
Heeeeey let’s do this Five on Friday thang (even though it’s Saturday)! 😉 We had my twenty week ultrasound yesterday! We’re not finding out the gender – we didn’t find out with Henry and Eliza either and we loved the surprise, but I’ve got to say, it’s been more difficult this time around. I sooooo…
It’s that time again! Time for Five on Friday (a day late)! I can’t tell you how excited I am for it to be the weekend. I was sick all week and it.was.rough. I’m hoping to give my body what it needs this weekend, lots of rest and relaxation. Even though this past week was…
Happy Friday! I hope you had a wonderful week. Our week was a tad looong. Both kids have been sick, sick, sick, but they seem to be feeling much better today….finally. 🙂 Jon and I are so happy to have our wild, little kiddos running around the house again! Let’s get to…
Happy Friday! It’s almost time to kick-off the weekend and I seriously can’t wait, but first I need to share with you my Friday Favorites! {one} Let’s start here with this IG post from Madison Vining. This speaks to me…it really, truly speaks to me… LOL! {two} This week I shared some ridiculously cute and…
Happiest Friday of Fridays! Put on your party hats, people. ‘Cause it’s time to paaaaaartay! Let’s get started… {one} We’re headed to an indoor waterpark soon and I’ve yet to purchase swim suits! These are some of my favorites. Help a girl out and tell me which ones I should order…I just can’t decide –…

Thanks for the comment on my blog— I LOVE your diy mirror!!! I want to try that because it turned out fabulous. Love your blog!
Ooooooh I'm jealous of that boat! Growing up in Texas we lived on the lake, such a blast. Colorado has a lot, but not lakes! Happy weekend Marie :). Hopped over from the link up!
I loooove Henry's art! Isn't that just the most amazing thing watching your kids learn and grow?? I swear sometimes Jacob will do something and I look at it like he's invented the wheel or something! LOL.
P.S. I'm LOVING your new blog header! It looks fantastic, and polka dots are my favorite :o)

I absolutely love the mirror! Great job! And your sweet boy is too cute!
LOL! You're so sweet and yes – it's totally like they invented the wheel!
Thanks so much! 🙂
This is one of the reasons why I'd love to move in to my Lake country house!
