Wednesday thoughts

....... I wish my child would sleep through the night.......... darn cough!
I got in bed with him the other day to rub his back and woke up to a foot on my neck

....... We had our Church Directory pictures taken last night and I have not laughed that hard in a looooooooong time. It was like taking senior portraits all over again. We tried so hard to just do a family picture but the lady insisted we take solo ones as well (did she think I wanted a portrait of myself????) Jonathan's eyes were half closed in all of them, Hudson was yelling "apples" and I was trying so hard not to bust out laughing.


......... Hudson's new phrase is "I'm not joking!" Clearly he has learned this from me constantly saying, "Hudson, clean that up right now. I'm not joking" It is hilarious.


.......... Have you seen this soldier coming home video    I SOBBED!

Happy Fall Y'all!

I love fall. One of our family traditions is going to Hill Ridge Farms 

                                                         We went when Hudson was 1

2 years old

 

 

And 3 years old!

 

We had the best morning! I highly recommend this place!!!

 

We had the BEST time and Hudson has talked about it for 3 days. I would give anything to live on a farm!

 

I cannot stand it....

 

 

I cannot control myself. I am so deeply in love with this boy. He makes me laugh so hard. I would still hold him every second of the day if he would let me. He truly completes our life and has blessed up tremendously. I thank God every minute of the day for my boy!

.......

                                                       We all feel this way sometimes......

Let's chat

I seriously LOVE Michael Strahan on Live with Kelly & Michael. He is adorable.

Hudson's class is making butter and biscuits this Friday.... guess which mom jumped at the chance to volunteer that day.....

I have been drinking way too many pumpkin spice lattes. I can tell I have gained weight. I saw it as a sign from God today when the lady at the Target Starbucks said they were out.

I survived 6 days husband free. My house did not.

Hudson had a date Friday night and I got so tickled watching him make his move

                                             How adorable are C & C? I love twins!!!!

3. Caramel Pumpkin Spice Latte's

My favorite dress

My Emmy post yesterday made me think about my favorite dress. I wore this dress to our wedding party. I adored it. I wish I had a better photo. I hope to wear it again when we renew our vows in Bora Bora..... one can dream.

 

 

 

I also really love this DVF dress

 

Emmy's Fashion

I love watching the Emmy's red carpet. It would be so fun to wear these dresses! Some actresses get it totally wrong but these girls got it right in my opinion

 

                                                                  Edie Falco - I am obsessed!

                                                Ginnifer Goodwin ( I literally drooled at this dress)

                                                        Leslie Mann - I love a pocket dress

                                                               Giuliana Rancic - classic black

                                                                Cat Deelay - perfect!

                                                       Julianne Moore- classic perfection

                                                                  Julie Bowen- amazing

Happy Friday!!!

Are you watching The X Factor? I am so obsessed with Britney Spears in general so I am completely obsessed with a show that has Britney and Simon Cowell.

Speaking of TV, I also watched  Breaking Amish. Literally almost died. These people have never had running water, electricity, cars, radio, phones, a shower, dentist, etc. It was such an eye opener on how spoiled we are.

We have spent some time 4 wheeling..... in our yard. Hudson loves it.

Rest in Peace

Rest in Peace, Mimi. You were the best pet we ever had. (No offense to Sissy. She is just a tad needy)

 

For over a year you swam alone in your bowl, no whining, no back talking, no saying "mommy" 1,000 times a day. I will miss you. I am sorry it was my fault you died, I thought your water was too cold. You had a good life Mimi. We will miss you. Well, I will. No one else ever noticed you. Except my dad who always wondered how you were still alive.

Happy Monday

Too cool

On the way to school yesterday (1st stop at Starbucks for Mommy's happy juice) Hudson said, "oh man, that sun is bright. It's in my eyes. Gotta get my shades." I started laughing and turned around to see this.

 

It must hurt to be that cool.

Mud Room

I have high hopes that one day we will have a mud room in our house. A place where we each have a spot to put our shoes, jackets, Hudson's book bag, my pocketbook, etc. That way they are not scattered all over the floor and kitchen. A girl can dream.

Be happy

 

 

Live your life with these thoughts.

Let the school year begin!

 

He was so happy, he literally ran into his classroom! What a great feeling. I pray he has another successful year! It is hard to believe he is in 3 year old preschool!
