Lilly

I don't know if any of you are familiar with Lilly but her clothes are timeless and fun and also Very Expensive, way too expensive for this mommy but today I found quite a bargain, one that had obviously been there for quite a while making it $2 and some change. I can't believe anyone would pass up this jewel! I looked on lilly's site and her skirts go from $118.00 & up for the same style. Only problem is I haven't quite widdled down to the size that it is but I'm sure I will or I will just have to squeeze in it and have a muffin top!!!

chicken with artichokes and mushrooms

Just so we are well rounded on this blog I made this over the weekend, compliments from Ms. PW (pioneer woman)! I used bowtie pasta instead though, I loved it! I dont think Robbie was too sure. Whenever I cook he is always like, maybe it could use some of this or some of that & i'm always like maybe i could punch you or put poison in it! (just kidding, honey - i love you) Anywho check out the recipe if you are interested on The Pioneer Woman's blog. And on a side note I'm really proud of myself for telling you this was someone else's recipe and where to find! I am notorious for getting other people recipe's using them and calling them something different to make it my own like "Heather's Chicken with Artichokes and Mushrooms!" ha!!

It's begun..

He is gonna eat us out of house & home! I grew up with two brothers so I am well aware of whats about to go down. At least Abby will just have one bro to have to try to get left over crumbs from. When I grew up my mom would get one bottle of soda for the whole week in the summer and Michael and Tommy would drink it all in one day, needless to say I never got any soda and thats probably why I don't drink alot today. Cade has been very, verry hungry lately he must be going thru a growth spurt! This morning it was two bowls of cereal, the other night it was 4 chicken nuggets a hamburger and fries, he is HUNGRY!!! What a handsome hampster!

Saturday Baseball

Sorry my basball photos are not clearer or more of them for that matter but I had to keep track of a certain squishy that was running while we were there! Look at her cute basball bow I got for her to wear to her bro's games, it's from my favorite bow lady on Etsy - Maciescustombows! Cade's baseball practice went well, it seems like all the kids are listening to coach Rob (daddy) and I haven't seen him use the whistle yet! lol! I think I may have to borrow that whistle for my little team mate! She kept bringing me wet old dirty, wait for it.... cigarette butts!!! I think someone reading this probably just fainted. When I had just one baby I probably would have poured rubbing alcohol all over his hand while he was in the tub, but with two - a wipee will sufice... Please world quit throwing your cigarette butts on the ground for Abby to get into, we were at the park for crying out loud. I should not have to worry about Abby trying to smoke your old stoogies at the PARK!!!

Mommy & me..

I don't now if you remember my posts about the cutey tutey Miss Trish shoes I found for Abby at Target a while back but guess what they got in last week??? The mommy sizes!!!! Look how wonderful!, I could not be more excited about this, the two below are the ones me and my squish will be sportin' this summer!!

Ride em' cowboy!

What a week!, We had all been sick this week:( but hope the stomache funk has passed us and moved on to the next victims! I didn't even get to go to My bub's baseball practice last Saturday but I did get to spend the whole weekend snuggled up with this bubbette, she was sick too! She was my "sick buddy" If I would get out of bed she would get sooo upset. She is too funny... look at that face - I could just squish those cheeks!! Tomorrow is baseball practice #2, & I will be there with bells on and baby on hip, to encourage/cheer on both my bub and my hubby (coach Rob)...

BUB!

Look at this handsome squishy bub in his baseball uniform. Could there by anything cuter? He starts this Saturday!!

ABBY!!!!

I write this blog in hopes of printing out someday & made into something to show the kids later in life and also to write down my thoughts or whatevers. Which brings me to todays blog on Abby. Abby I hope you read this one day and think, wow my mom really deserves, oh I don't know, diamonds!!! Because of course when you're older reading this you'll be a doctor or lawyer and your brother - of course, a astronaut...Any who, Abby. Abby. Abby. Abby. yesterday you were a devil child! When I picked you up from school you were trying to keep a poopie in your pants (oh, don't act like your child has never tried to do this!!!) and when I tried to change you - you started to throw the BIGGEST fit, which including wrestling me, throwing your backpack at me, yelling at me, pointing and yelling at me & throwing yourself on the floor. The afternoon teacher was like, "I've never seen her do that before", I was like "oh, this is something special just for me!" When I finally got you out of the school to go get your brother and and into the car to go home you wiggled and thrashed your way out of the car seat! I had to pull over to try to get you back in which took me 30 minutes, thats right 30 minuts!!! You fought me the whole way and you are stronger much stronger than your poor mother. Of course we were stopped about two businesses down from the school so everyone that drove by got to see us! Well they saw you defeating me. Poor Cade kept saying mamma I may tell you something, I was like oh, not now I'm trying to wrangle your sister. Cade loves to wait until Abby is out of control to say hey can I get some milk, or I may tell you something "I have a rock in my shoe" Hello! When we got home you wanted to sit in my lap all night, I'd like to think it was because you felt bad about your attack on me!!!

Gatlinburg

Lots and lots of pics! We had a good time on our trip to Gatlinburg or

Gatinburg if your Cade. We went Hiking, to the

aqarium, shopping and we ate and we ate and WE ATE! In case anyone is going anytime soon you have to eat at the Parkway Grill, it was wonderful,(tell em' Rob sent you - just kidding) If you get a steak get it with the creamy horseradish sauce! I would drive back right now just to eat one of their steaks, yum yum! Oh, & they had a salad bar which before we got there I was excited about and Robbie thought that was funny, but if you have kids and get to eat without (which we did , thank you G-ma Nancy) them, the thought of lingering at the salad bar picking out your favorites with no one yelling at you or pooping in their pants seems like a luxury... My pics are kinda spaced out so make sure you scroll all the way to the bottom.
