This weekend we had fun plans for a dinner out to celebrate my mom’s birthday and take advantage of restaurant week! Of course when one makes plans something always happens and Hudson came down with a cold/flu and was sick for most of the weekend. So going out plans turned into everyone coming to my house for dinner so that Hudson could celebrate with Grandma, but stay in his PJ’s.
Saturday morning I went for a weekly weigh in at WW solo since the birthday girl decided she wanted a lazy morning in bed instead of getting weighed. I reached my goal weight so a little celebration with Halloween candy was in order!
After a quick trip to the supermarket I made some yummy meatballs and sauce for my mom’s birthday dinner that night!
With meatballs done so early we had a little time to oh and ah at Asher will he practiced his latest trick before shower time.
Asher also rocked his first mohawk courtesy of his Dadddy.

Hudson had been sick since Thursday and by Saturday evening his fever had been gone since early in the morning, which was great. He loves birthday parties and had fun putting the candles on the cake with his Aunt Ximena. His type A momma was having a hard time dealing with him shoving all the candles in one place, but he had so much fun that I couldn’t fix a single one.
Hudson thinks it’s his job to blow out the candles during any birthday celebration. We were at a little kids party last weekend and the birthday wasn’t into the birthday singing and candle blowing out and started to cry. Don’t fret! Hudson ran out to try and “help” blow out the candles. He he he.
On Sunday we had lots of projects to tackle at home so in between doing laundry, blowing out the sprinklers, removing the AC’s from all of the windows and getting some design work done we enjoyed coloring on a massive roll of kraft paper we picked up at Home Depot.
I also took a million and one photos of Asher, because I can’t handle his cuteness.
Hudson hates getting his photo lately, which is really sad and I hope he gets over it soon. I did manage to snap a photo of him being super sweet with his brother without him realizing. 🙂
Before we wrapped up for the day I even managed to squeeze in a photo shoot for the blog!
congratulations on reaching your goal weight! I lost 50 pounds in the last 12 months so I know how hard it is. I also had my hubby install the USB port outlet in my kitchen and love it. Thanks for the idea. Laura C
Thanks Laura! My least favorite part of pregnancy is having to lose all of the weight afterwards, but it doesn’t fall off me like so many other mom’s say it does. Happy to be back to my normal. Wasn’t installing the outlet so easy? I want one in the den now and my office!

My living room is one of the rooms that evolved drastically from when we first moved one. Originally I painted the walls chocolate brown and did accents of white, blue and orange. That lasted maybe 2 years.
Our dining room sat empty for months. Okay maybe it was empty for just a handful of weeks and then we couldn’t take it anymore and put in a folding table and plastic outdoor chairs, but in my mind that was still empty.
On the main floor of our house we have a Florida room. Being that it’s a Florida room it is a considered a 3 season room, because there is no heat in the room. The previous owners used it as an indoor patio with outdoor furniture and it looked like this when we moved in.
Fall is the perfect season to host an outdoor movie night in your backyard! It’s that time of year when outdoor furniture is still outside and it gets dark earlier than the summer which means your little kiddos can enjoy the movie night as well. It’s so nice to transform your backyard with cozy blankets, […]
Can you believe it’s already November? Before we know it Thanks No. 1 Modern bar cart with patterned sides that looks great as is, but would also look amazing painted a pop of color! Plus it’s only $157. No. 2 This lucite bar cart is a personal favorite of mine. Look at those chic lines! […]
For the longest time our backyard was mainly just grass and a little small area where we laid down some pavers so that we could set out a little plastic table/chairs during the summer. Not exactly ideal for entertaining. For the past couple of years we have wanted to build a deck and enjoy the […]
