I woke up this morning to a clean house! And I am not the one who cleaned it!! :) Yep, After I went to bed last night Trey stayed up and picked up all of the toys and decluttered around the house! It was so nice to wake up this morning to a straight house! Sure made mopping this morning much easier and I couldn't complain one bit. Thanks Trey, that was so awesome!
We took a trip to Atlanta on Saturday to IKEA (turned into a fiasco of a trip due to road construction...you DONT even want to know!!) to pick up some storage solutions so once they were assembled yesterday and I put some of the stuff away, I had no more energy to tackle all of the stuff that was already lying around and driving me crazy. Our mission this weekend (since we didn't make it to the beach) was to get the house in order. Well by the time I sat down last night, I didn't feel like even thinking about it and mentioned that we never even accomplished what we planned to this weekend. We did get a lot done but time runs out. Well, he stayed up after I went to bed and took care of it on his own. Let me tell you, that is one heck of a way to wake up on a Monday! :)
I also have to brag on my little girl. She is a pro in the pool. I can't wait to show you videos of her swimming. This is one proud mama. My parents came over on Friday and went to her lesson but she was a little thrown off by them being there and I got in the water with her (b/c I though we were going swimming at the beach this weekend). I wish they could have really seen her in action. She was more than excited today to get in the water, she tried to get in the pool before we were ready and then wanted to get back in when she was done. I can't wait for the water to warm up outside so we can swim.
I can't remember if I've told you about AM and the rock wall on her swing set, but she's crazy! She climbs up that thing so fast, it's unbelievable! There is a picture below, I really need to get a video though.
In baby news, I'm 6 months pregnant now and he is definitely an active one! He moves and kicks all of the time. He really seems to be on a schedule though, I don't remember AM being that way but maybe I didn't really pay attention. He does seem to wake up about 10 pm every night which gets me a little nervous...Mama doesn't stay up late! :) I'm hoping to get started on his room soon. We still haven't decided on a middle name yet, hopefully soon.
Here are some photos of what we've been up to lately...
Enjoying lots of time outside...having afternoon snacks on the deck...
watering the plants...yes that's a topsy turvy, thought I'd give strawberries another try using it
planting new trees...
enjoying the most beautiful flowers, particularly from the pink rose bush...
watching the veggies grow...(this pic was supposed to rotate, sorry)
waiting to plant MORE hydrangeas...
swinging...LOTS of swinging
(I don't think I've told you about how BOSSY this girl is, especially with swinging. BOTH swings must be moving! Often she puts a doll or stuffed animal in the 2nd swing, either way, you have to push both. And when she gets down and wants to push, she pushes both!)
and climbing...
and of course enjoying Buddy Fruits...
The child is addicted to those things. She won't eat much at all, but she LOVES Buddy Fruits! It's either that, cheese, milk or fruit/veggie juice. Oh well!I hope you're having a wonderful Monday. It sure is beautiful!!

What a sweet hubby! And I'm glad you mentioned buddy fruits. Maybe Cope needs an Easter basket full of those! He's one picky boy too! AM is so so adorable!
Glad you had a good weekend and a great start to your week. I'm hoping to make a trip to IKEA once we move up there. I love AM's outfit!!! Oh, and Sophie is the exact same way about swings. And being bossy. People in public just don't understand she has to do it her way and I'm not neglecting her. They always jump to catch her and help her because they think she's going to get hurt when she's climbing but she REFUSES to let me help her. I don't care if she climbs, she's been doing it 3/4 of her life! Other people just aren't used to watching a child her size climb on the things she's climbing on. I figure either she has to learn how to do it right or get hurt and not try it again. (Although the latter has never happened.)
That was so thoughtful of Trey! He def. gets Husband of the month. AM climbing up the rocks is too cute. She is such a big girl. I'm so glad to hear she doesn't eat much because B is starting to do the same thing. I can't get him to eat much of anything but he loves his juice. Oh well, I guess it's normal and he won't stay this way forever. It just makes me nervous that I'm doing something wrong. Anyway, hope you are feeling well!
