Surprise!

This past Friday I threw Trey a Surprise 30th Birthday party.  I was so worried that he'd find out about it, but everything worked out perfectly and he was VERY surprised!






Trey doesn't like cake so I opted for some delicious Cheesecake Factory cheesecake.  We were at a Mexican restaurant of course he had to wear the sombrero for Happy Birthday!


Thanks Lindsay for taking pics for me!

There were about 40 people there which made it so fun!


The kids basically ran wild the whole time but we were in a side room, so it worked out pretty well.  I would say it was organized chaos, but really it was more just chaos than anything.

Orange and blue balloons were in order for a football weekend party.

Reese and Davis got a little cozy=)

I tried to get pics with everybody and I almost succeeded.







There were actually more kids than this!  You can imagine the room looked like when we left.  Don't worry we left a big tip!
 The sombrero made its way around.


So thankful to all our friends and family who made Trey feel so loved!

Love you so much Trey! Happy 30th!

Fall Fun!

We are loving Fall this year.  The cool crisp weather is always refreshing and this fall has brought a lot of fun memories so far.  Here are a few of my favorite pics from this Fall so far.

Retail Therapy =)


I've found a few cute things lately that are worth passing along.  I am working on what to do with the girl's room when the baby gets here and they more than likely "move in together."  I am trying to work with what Sophie already has and just add to it, then when Selah moves in, I can just go buy her the same stuff.  I am having a lot of fun doing it too!  This was my first find at  Pottery Barn Kids in the sale section.  It's called the girl pennant flag and it's on sale for $9.99 right now.  I bought two and I'm not sure where I'll use them yet, but I'm sure it'll be cute =)



 My next few purchases were from Land of Nod.
These sweet letters are so precious and add just a little vintage taste I think.  I may hang them at the end of the girls beds on the footboard or just on their wall somewhere.  They're only $2.95 per letter.

 I also got them two collapsible hampers from land of nod.  Not sure if I'll monogram them yet, but at least their clothes will be separate.  I am going to try something new with laundry a tip from Lindsay, and I'm going to do everyone's laundry separately, by room.  That way you can just fold it and take it all to one room to put it away.  She says it works for her, so I am going to give it a shot!  Sorry for the blurry pic =)




This is the duvet cover and Euro sham that I picked to go with Sophie's pink matelasse from Pine Cone Hill.  I had to order it in a twin size, so it's not here yet.  The color is peony and I LOVE it!  It is going to brighten up her washed out room of pale pink.  I bought a super cute accent pillow with big sewn on polka dots in coordinating colors.  Can't wait to post a picture of the finished product!



Bright green sling from SevenSlings.  I got an email for a promo that gave you a "free" sling and nursing cover.  While it was "free"  they charged pretty high shipping and handling which bumped the total cost of both items up to $25.  I was still pretty happy with my purchase though. 

This is the nursing cover I got from UdderCovers

If you want me to send you the promotional email, I think it's still going on, just email me or comment with your email address and I'll fwd it to you!

Last but not least, bought two personalized iron on appliques from etsy - babycakesdesign (click to see how to order).  Not to shabby for $5.  I also bought a $5 longsleeve white shirt for each of my little turkeys from target and I plan on just ironing on!  Target also has hot pink, so when I get the applique, I may use the pink shirt.  We'll see how it works, never done this before.  I am hoping it turns out super cute though!

Cravings

I have been so tired and worthless lately, the first trimester blahs I guess.  Not much has been going on with us and I just got my camera back from getting fixed so I don't have many pics to post either.  The one thing on my mind the most is food!
I have been having major cravings with this pregnancy.  It started out salty but we've already moved to sweet. Here's my craving list so far.  It changes daily, but once I want something, I feel like I HAVE TO HAVE IT!  And not only that, but almost nothing else sounds appealing to me except that one thing.
1. Jalapeno cream sauce from Chuy's. (highly recommend it)
2.  Strawberry and Banana smoothies.
3.  Red meat. (flank steak especially!)
4.  Hot dogs.
5.  Caesar salad with chicken. (early on, not anymore, ew yuck!)
6.  Apples.
7.  Gatorade.

I love pregnancy cravings though because when you do eat what you're craving it tastes sooooo good.
On the flip side, I have aversions too.  Coffee for instance.  I am normally a daily coffee drinker but I haven't touched the stuff in a few weeks now.  
I absolutely love being pregnant though and am so thankful for such a precious gift!  We got to see our little peanut yesterday on ultrasound and it just always blows me away what a miracle it is to have a life inside you.  God is so amazing!!!  He is so creative and wonderful!

Blogger Blahs

Sometimes I am just not feeling it as far as the blog goes.  I think I'm just in that tired/mildly nauseated stage of pregnancy and I am just not feeling the motivation to post.  My mission is to finish with the Disney pics, but it may be a while.  Right now, I am consumed with finding a renter for our house, finding a rental house for us and researching cars for a family of 5!  Other than that, just trying to enjoy the crisp days we're having here and there!  Hope you're all well and I promise I'll be back someday!

Destination...


Yep!  We are expecting Warren Baby #3 on June 1, 2011.  (It was pretty fun to shop for maternity wear in NYC)  We are so excited and overwhelmed with God's blessings in our lives.  I will be delivering at UAB this time, so if anybody has any advice or good experiences from UAB, let me know!

NYC take 2

Here's a few more from the Met.





We spent the afternoon in Central Park after enjoying the Met.


Riley lovin on "Kate".





We saw a crowd gathering outside of the theatre where Jordyn Sparks is performing on Broadway.  We stopped and were hoping to catch a glimpse, but we gave up on her after about 20 minutes.

Love pics from Times Square, especially this glimpse of sunset!



Pad Thai at "Room Service" around the corner from Riley's apt.  So yummy!
