Easter baskets

I got a big head start on the boys Easter baskets because I find that I never have anytime anymore so I got them done when I knew I had time. I had initially only wanted to put all things non candy in caidans Easter basket but then I found these adorable football Easter eggs and couldn't resist! Brantley's of course had no candy but consisted of all things bunny! I had so much fun putting these together and in case you want ideas I've shared the sources:)

Can't wait for the boys to open these!!!

8 months and counting

Little B turned 8 months this week and as a gift, he got his first cold. I forgot how miserable it is to have a baby that is sick:( Luckily he remained in good spirits and allowed me to take his 8 month picture!

He is basically crawling at this point, its sort of like a improvised army crawl. But he gets from point a to point b! He loves eating, saying MAMA and chewing on everything he shouldn't. I think he will be like his big brother and walk at 10 months. 

I will be posting about my easter basket later this week so stay tuned for all the goodies!

Recap of the week

We had a great st paddys day AND someone had a very blessed birthday! I got wined and dined by my wonderful husband and then he not only surprised me with flying my best friend out to Colorado but he threw me a surprise party! I may have drank too much tequila but it was definitely a birthday I will remember! 

I am already looking forward to upcoming holidays like Easter and mothers day! I am so excited to give the boys their Easter baskets!! Especially Brantley since this will be his first Easter! Caidan doesn't even care if he gets candy anymore, he'd much rather prefer an iTunes card or new under armor clothes! 

Caidan has started playing football and is already loving it! He really is such a stud. I can see great things in his future! Anyways that's a quick recap! Here are some photos from the week! Enjoy!

Stay tuned for fun Easter basket goodies!

Smiling and sleeping

Holy smokes! It's already the middle of March! I have been so busy these days and have neglected updating my blog so to those who follow me, I'm so sorry:( Update on life these days. Caidan is now in spring football and will do that till June when he gets a month break and then will jump right into fall football! Busy little boy! Brantley is almost crawling! He he such a little mover these days! He is o happy all the time and is such a good little sleeper! He loves his brother so much!

We have hit the 7 month mark ladies and gentlemen and this little man is alright! He favorite things are taking baths, eating, rolling around on the floor and chewing on mommy's phone.

This is the closest we have gotten to crawling. Looks more like planking to me:)

Green is the new black

March is my second favorite month other than December because not only is it St. Patty's Day but it is also my birthday. Anyone who knows me knows that I make a big deal out of my birthday every year and I love celebrating and sharing it with my friends and family! I also am dying over all of the green overload that I am seeing everywhere! It makes mw so excited! Look at all the adorable green goodies there are for the kiddos! I've already scooped up some of these!

Not to mention all the green treats and crafts that I can do with the kids. Caidan is always up for some craft time with his momma! I am dying over the green pancakes!

Cheers to it almost being March and bring on the green beer!

Love Love Love

I have been so busy with household work these past few weeks I've neglected to upload new pics and updates! Things have been crazy around here lately with Valentines Day and trying to get back into the swing of things. I am also taking an online photography class to try and get better at using my uber expensive Nikon DSLR camera:) Brantley is growing like a weed and Caidan is right there with his brother! Caidan is just finishing up his season of basketball and will be starting his spring football in just a few short weeks! Know what else is in a few weeks? My birthday. I think I get way too excited about my birthday every year, not because I am getting older (however 29 is looking pretty good these days) I just get excited for one day to be about me! I am also getting excited for St. Patty's Day because my birthday falls on the 16th! I can see lucky charm cupcakes and all things green in my future!

Heart shaped food has got to be my absolute favorite thing and let me just say that my heart cookie cutter got its work out this month!

Hope everyone had a fantastic Valentines Day and stay tuned for lots of green inspired posts!

Weekend fun and first words:)

I have been so bad about keeping this updated but have just been so busy lately. Well, the broncos didn't win. Womp womp womp. I was devastated for the first couple hours after the game was over but then I remembered that by making it to the superbowl, we were already winners. Here's some photos from the day:) We started our day off with some football pancakes which by the way were super easy once I figured out that you cannot use your plastic cookie cutters on the pan, yes, they will melt. Don't judge me. I just made the pancakes and THEN punched them out with my cutter, didn't have icing, so the laces are cream cheese! 

We also tried avocado this past weekend and LOVED it! 

While Mommy ate a hundred of these little babies:) If you want the recipe, all I did was buy the candy quick melting stuff you can get in the store and a bag of pretzels and used the same sprinkles we used from our sugar cookies a few weeks ago:) 

Isn't he just the cutest thing ever!!!!

To top off our wonderful weekend someone said their first word! MAMA!

Hope everyone is having a wonderful start to February! We are making valentines this weekend so stayed tuned for something crafty I have up my sleeve!
