We went on a walk...

We met up with our favorite friends and went on a little walk and a little park time.
It was fun!

 The slide!
 He LOVED the wind!


We hope to make this a regular thing... putting Jack to sleep tonight was a breeze! He was exhausted from our little outing.

Thank you to everyone that gave me so many amazing suggestions on here and on twitter! 
I'll post a little update as soon as his FOUR MOLARS come in! 
(poor little man)


Today is my cookie date with Mrs. Maryum! Can't wait!

Teething...

Yah. Totally sucks.



His molars are coming in so falling asleep has been a little rough. We still rock Jack to sleep and (cue the bad mom thoughts) yes, he still drinks one bottle at day. We're actually in the beginning of trying to switch the bottle to a sippy cup at night.




He falls asleep so easily in the car, but we're only In the car for about 20 minutes on the way home. It's a little frustrating because I don't know what to do. I'm just going with the flow. He is happy when he's awake. Just the falling asleep part is giving us some trouble. He has to get very very tired in order to fall asleep.




My poor little man. Hopefully they pop out soon and he can be happy. :)
Any mama's out there have any teething suggestions? We miss Hylands teething tablets. :(

new new new

There a few new things going on around here....

NEW DESIGN!!!

Isn't it just so pretty!? I love it! Becca at Jumping Jax Designs did an amazing job! She listened to every little detail that I gave her (hehe..oops! I might have been a little picky).

Anywhoo, she's amazing! 

New friends! 

I met the very cute Maryum of Pamplemousse1983!
She is just so cute and so easy to talk to!
We're having a cookie date afternoon Friday.

Jeremy and I had our usual Sunday date night, but took a detour to his old stomping ground, as he calls it. He took some photos of my outfit for me and he actually had a good time!!
Before we left :] 



Shirt: Target
Jeans: Gap
Sandals: Fossil


Work has been good, but long and tiring.
I miss my little guy all the time.



We're hopefully (FINALLY) getting our little Soph over here soon.
I miss her too.

This weekend...




Today: Jack and I hung out and played all day! It was so fun. I miss him all week so Saturday's are extra special. Jeremy got home early today, so we went to my inlaw's for a little while then grocery shopping. I love food shopping. Then we went to Five Guys Burgers. Omg. Best burger ever.

Tomorrow: We are going to have an easy, laid back morning that is going to include coffee and a little smoothies action. Then we're going to have some friends over then lunch! We want to go to the zoo, but we really want our friends to go with us and they can't tomorrow. Hopefully next weekend or soonish.

I love my little man. That picture just shows who he is. Such a happy little guy :)

Ft Worth Botanical Garden...

 PHOTO DUMP...

We went to the botanical gardens last weekend after a failed attempt at the zoo. It was spring break and there were police directing traffic in and out of the zoo. Yah. Not going to make it with a one year old.
The gardens were gorgeous and Jack had a great time running around and looking at the fish.











I love those two. :]

We have/had big plans today, but Jack decided it was time for a nap RIGHT before we left. So, we're here...waiting on him to wake up. :] Toddlers...

I hope everyone that attended the AZ Blogger Meet Up had an amazing time!!!! I wish I could have gone but I couldn't even make my brother's wedding last night. :'[ Sometimes living so far from my family is hard.  My husband is doing a great job at cheering me up today and I hear that the wedding was beautiful. :]

I cut my bangs. I'm not sure if I like them yet, but it's done. Hmm...
