The View

As of lately when we see our little Bean this is all we see.  A curley headed, walking little TODDLER!



So crazy, but so cute!

And we're having her first birthday party on Saturday!!!

Continued

I should have known I wouldn't let myself get away with only two Easter pictures.  We had so many cute ones that day, so here they are.

You have been warned.

Wardrobe change into the Crocs, from the pretty sandals = play time!

Georgia "helping" cousin Shep with his animal crackers, haha!

Love'n Life

Things are good and things are busy.

But we are loving life right now.  It's almost summer and it already feels like it is.

So here is what we've been up to since April 14!

April 15:

Rehearsal and Dinner for this amazing lady in white, not to mention spending the whole weekend with one the BEST and it was amazing!



April 16:

One of the most awesome couples got married, and we all celebrated,

 "HEY LAURA!"

April 23:

Georgia's friend, Essie, had her first birthday party!  Essie is two days younger than Georgia so it's so special for them to get to be at these special occasions for each other.

April 24:

Georgia's first Easter.  And it was so sweet!  Church with the Vincent Grandparents and the picnic lunch at Alhambra Hall in Mt. Pleasant.

The weather was amazing and Georgie loved the Easter eggs! Is is wrong that we still pull them out everyday to play with them? Don't worry, they're plastic.

April 25:

GEORGIA TURNED ONE!!!

{need I say more?}

April 30:
Cute little munchkin has the start of an ear infection ... insert a big 'ol sad face right here.

May 3:
The worst day of the ear infection.  Does somebody look ridiculously sleep?

There are just too many cute Easter pictures, so I'm doing another post

Cruise'n

This crazy curly headed Bean has learned how to WALK!

And I couldn't be more proud of her!  She is so precious toddling through out the house.

I just love her!

In a nutshell

I'm not really sure where this past few weeks have gone so I'm just going to wrap it up...

March 12

Baby Shower for the sweetest Emily on the planet! I love her and her baby so much.  I can't wait to meet Baby Y!  She did a post on her blog, so I'll let her do the talking {just know the feelings are ditto!}

March 18-20

We celebrated this Q-te in white getting married on April 16! Another trip to SSI?  Don't mind if I do!

I could not say enough about Laura.  She is by far one of the most incredible people I've ever met.  I cannot wait to be a part of her wedding!

The same weekend, Jason took Georgie to Sumter to visit her cousin Shep!  Yes, he is 11 1/2 months older than her...

March 22

Three days before Georgia hits the 11 month mark!

The weather got so nice that we've been trying to be outside as much as possible lately.

I wish I had this in video.  G was dancing back and forth the whole time.  She loves being on Da-da's shoulders!

And, she's way to busy for mom's kisses...

March 25

We { I } celebrated Bird & Branch being 6 months & Georgie being 11 months!!!!  with a fun trip to Ikea!

March 27

Then the sick baby junk set in... and let me just say, I wouldn't wish a sick baby on my WORST enemy (... if I have any).  Ok, and I'm not bragging, I promise, but Georgia is such a good sleeper.  When we put her down around 8ish she doesn't wake up until about 7.  That's every night.  So when she started waking up at night whining, we knew something wasn't right.  Anyway, after 3 sleepless nights and a fever that spiked to 103.1, we took G to the ER to get checked out at 1am.  We got home at 6 am with three negative results for pneumonia, UTI, and the flu.  But, as thankful as we were...it still doesn't help us figure out why in the world she had a fever that high.   

Monday was no better, except the fever never got that high again, but Jason and I still weren't satisfied.  Thankfully, we're super annoying first time parents that insisted on calling the doctor again to let them know something still wasn't right and we needed to come see them, AGAIN!  Well we took her back yesterday, they did tests on her for strep, mono, etc. they found out that her white blood cell count was too high so we took her back for an antibiotic shot. she slept much better last night and woke up without a fever now! so yay!

Prayers are always welcomed in this household!

So, yeah, that's our life the past few weeks!  I really am going to try to get better about not waiting 2 weeks between posts... "try" being the key word.

LOVE

giving it away

I'm literally giving it away!

Over on Bird & Branch, we're celebrating 6 months of business by giving one lucky reader a birthday present!

I know everyone that follows this blog might not follow Bird & Branch, but I thought you should all be included on the give away!

CLICK HERE to get the detes {details - didn't know if everyone followed that}on entering!

OH, and today is the last day to enter, so hurry!

Product Thursday

I've decided that us lady's need to help each other out.  Men have tons of website to read about electronics, guns, fishing equipment, bikes, etc., etc., etc.

But I feel like women are different.  We want a first hand opinion on what our firend's, cousin's, sister's thought about a product.  Not to mention if we can learn from someone elses mistake, how great is that!

Ok, all that to say every now and then i might start posting a product that i LOVE or hate, just in case I might be helping someone out!

First up, the dreaded sippy cup!

I've been through 3.  Playtex was one, and I can't remember the other two off the top of my head, but they're in the garbage.  That's right, I didn't even save them for back ups.

Georgia has used Dr. Brown's bottles since the day she was born and we've had great success.  Some mom's don't like them because of "all the parts" but we loved them!  The parts really weren't an issue if that's all you ever know.  So when I read that Dr. Brown's also made sippy cups....SWOON!

I have seriously loved this thing.  NO leaks, NO spills, NO breaking.  I never thought I could love a sippy cup this much, but I do!

Hope this really helps somebody!

Oh and happy St. Patty's Day!

Mommy Time

Two weekends ago I had a fun little Trunk Show with two of the best girls I know!  We had an absolute blast and I can't wait to do another one.  But I had two little guest travel with me...

How sweet are these two?!

 Then mommy's little lady had to help her shop on King Street (in her skinny jeans, non the less).

Love them!
