Holla! It's FRIDAY!
I am packing my bags and catching an early flight to Austin with some amazing girlfriends to celebrate a birthday. And I can NOT wait!
My favorites this week are short and simple:
1. This shirt-- it popped up on my facebook feed and cracked me up. I am certainly OUTNUMBERED in this house. Big time. How does facebook know this? Is that freaky? Are those of you with both boys and girls seeing this in your feed too? hmmm....
2. My friend's new blog! My friend Tiffani is super cute and trendy and adorable-- and she is wrapping all that up into her new blog:
Tiffani at Breton Bay. And you can follow her on instagram
here.
She's on bloglovin, so those of you who use bloglovin app, you can follow her there! If she looks familiar, she was with me on my
Ole Miss trip back in September.
3. New bedding!!!!
I picked out new bedding forever ago-- like maybe for my birthday back in September...? And it finally came in! I was so excited to make the bed. The pillow shams aren't in yet-- but the new, clean
sheets and
duvet cover make me want to crawl right into bed!
4. Bruce. He is a favorite of mine this week.... (he isn't always-- often he drives me up and wall...)
He wants to be with the boys, wherever they are, all the time. As close as he can.
He got into bed with Cal Wednesday night and was so into the story Cal was reading-- talk about sweet!
This dog looooves his boys.
And his momma.
5. Andy can work my nerves like no other. He is trying. He has fits. He screams. He refuses to do things. He yells. He is not easy. But that is mainly all reserved for me. He made this for Mimi Thursday-- just because he thought "it might make her smile."
I had his parent/teacher conference Thursday and it was all
great things. Academically, he is doing super-- but even more important to me, he is
NICE. His teacher made a point to tell me a story where he was extra kind to a boy in their class who was having a rough day. He looks out for his classmates and is very sensitive when it comes to them-- when they are sad, he is very concerned. This matters more to me than anything else- I want to raise kind-hearted children, and then young men. So I took his fit he had this morning over socks (him not wanting to put them on by himself and me digging in my heels refusing to help him put on said socks), and put it aside to focus on these positive traits his teacher was sharing with me. They are way more important them him asking for help putting on socks (even though he is FULLY capable of putting them on himself....haha).
After a good conference, we went on a date to Andy's favorite spot: firehouse subs!
Happy favorites! Can't wait to do an Austin post! Or maybe not...maybe what happens in ATX stays in ATX...??? hahahaha
