We are super sad the weekend is over already. Dad going back to work all day always bums us out over here. But this week is going to be a good one with lots of time spent outside, plus we get a fence for our yard and that makes us even happier. I love the month of May because that means summer is almost here, and we really love summer. Except for the fact that this baby turns TWO next month and that makes me a little sad. Or a lot sad. So I get one more month of my little one year old baby before people consider him a “toddler”. Even though he’s been toddler size since about 18 months. To me he’s my squishy baby boy who I’ll squeeze forever, or until he fights himself free.

I snapped these pics the other night when my boys were playing. They play all night once dad is home and it’s one of my favorite things to see. Beau waits all day to see his dad and if he hears a noise that resembles the garage opening (like the dishwasher) he immediately runs to the door “daddy home?”. He’s his favorite person and it’s so sweet, and sometimes annoying ;). Today I took Beau to Target looking for a gift for my nephew and he sees the toy cars and immediately starts screaming “CARS CARS CARS!!!!” I quickly let him pick 2 cars, ripped open the package and put 1 in each hand. But soon he saw more cars and hated the ones in his hands, so he threw them. This time his scream was a high pitched bloody murder scream. I’m sure people thought I was the meanest mom ever but I booked it outta that toy section and he screamed the entire rest of the time we were in the store. When we got home he loved his 2 little cars again and couldn’t be sweeter. good grief.

I’m sad to say that this boy is growing out of his red cowboy boots. Every time he wore them it made me smile. Especially paired with daisy dukes. You can tell from these pictures how rapid his mood changes lately! One second he is subdued, the next he is jumping on the bed and never happier, then it’s pouting. He gives me a run for my money on a daily basis, but it’s the best thing in the world. He will be 2 in June and I get sad every time I think about it. He is so smart and grown up, and insists on feeding himself because “I am big” he says. Yes, you are big baby boy. Too big, too fast.

Is there anything better than a baby in jeans without a shirt? Oh my sweet boy sure keeps me on my toes every day. He is constantly learning new dangerous tricks like climbing up and down the bar stools or climbing shelves in the pantry to reach a pack of m&m’s. I swear I watch him carefully but he can be sneaky! I love him so much. This age is so busy and fun and I’m loving every second of being his mom. Maybe minus the dramatic tantrums he throw from time to time 😉

Happy Wednesday, I hope you’re having the best week.

Yay for Friday! Hooray we are so happy the weekend is here. Today is my husband’s 34th birthday and I am so excited to take him out tonight to celebrate! My mom is watching the baby and we are having a child free night together. We don’t get many of those so I’m excited! I am going to blog about him and his birthday next week because he’s so amazing. Speaking of amazing……this dainty jewelry has been on me since I got it. I was so excited to partner up with Brin & Bell and snag a few gems. My “B” bracelet for my Beau or Blake ;), and I wear this wishbone necklace practically every single day.

Happy Friday, xo.

These photos have some of my favorite things together….my baby, this dress, and this towel. My new friend has a shop called mae woven with the cutest pillows, towels, and bags. When she sent us this towel I was instantly in love. I not only use it as Beau’s bath towel but it hangs in my bathroom 24/7 because it’s just so pretty. And also this dress….. you really need it. I hope you’re having a great week so far!

We are so happy it’s Friday over here. Blake had to go out of town this past week for work, which happens like once a year. Every single time I dread it. It’s not because I have to be a single mom for a few days, because really my baby is such a good boy for me mooooost of the time. But I just really miss HIM. So hooray for him being home and all of us back in our beds (Beau and I stayed at my parents while Blake was gone). And since Blake was gone on Sunday night I had to wait until Wednesday night to watch the season finale of The Walking Dead. Does anyone watch it? I am a HUGE fan, but this season just did nothing for me. Except for staring at Daryl Dixon I just haven’t been impressed. And the season finale was really only good the last 7 minutes of the total 90 minutes. So here’s hoping that gets better next season.

Anyway, happy weekend! We will be playing outside in the warmth.

a warmer week

This weeks weather has been so much sunnier than we’ve had in a little while so we have been enjoying playing outside. Beau is OBSESSED with being outside so much he hangs on the doors constantly begging for me to take him out. My Blake has been out of town for work the past few days which I hate more than anything. But he is coming home tomorrow!! I couldn’t be more excited. Beau and I have been staying with my parents while he has been gone. I’m not used to staying alone in our new house so I just decided to stay with them so I didn’t freak myself out being me and the babe alone. Plus staying at my parents means I get to share a bed with Beau and I just love snuggling up to him. Last night he slept on my neck for a few hours! And while it was not the most comfortable for me, I just soaked it up. It’s not very often this boy will give me a cuddle anymore.

Have a great week!

romper: rags to raches (similar)

This weekend was so wonderful because we got to spend time together as a family and watch general conference for our church. It is always one of my favorite weekends of the year and this one was just amazing. Plus it’s finally getting warm so we had a lot of walks outside in the warmth with the three of us. Beau doesn’t really even care about a playground, he just wants to run in the grass and be outside. It is the best to watch him light up when he’s outside. But it’s really terrible when we have to take him back in. It is full on backbend tantrums with bribing him on the side. These photos of him are some of my favorites because this romper makes him look like a little baby still. Heart eye emoji’s foreverrrrrrrr for him.

I’ve mentioned before how much Beau LOVES books. Being read to is one of his favorite things, and something we do every single day. So when Bookroo reached out we were so excited! I mean you should see Beau’s collection of reading material, and honestly you can never have too many books. They sent us the cutest little collection of books that have now become regulars in our reading rotation. One of his new books has a baby in it so of course he has to always point out the baby and say: “baby in a diappy” over and over again! Reading time will always be one of my most favorites with him. We’ve been reading to him since he was in the womb so it’s always a special moment for us. Thanks to Bookroo for partnering up with us! If you want to receive $5 off your order click here!
