These pictures give you a pretty good idea of how Beau reacts when you tell him no. Honestly most of the time he is such a good sweet boy, but his tantrums are no joke. Our month of July has been so busy to the point where we can’t handle it anymore. We just want to stay home and do nothing! So this next weekend that is exactly what we are doing and I already can’t wait. Until then we will be watching a lot of olympics. I LOVE the Olympics! We have also been watching a new netflix show called Stranger Things, which kind of scares me. And I just started The Vampire Diaries which I am now obsessed with. Blake definitely won’t watch that 😉

We are so happy it’s Friday over here. Blake had to go out of town this past week for work, which happens like once a year. Every single time I dread it. It’s not because I have to be a single mom for a few days, because really my baby is such a good boy for me mooooost of the time. But I just really miss HIM. So hooray for him being home and all of us back in our beds (Beau and I stayed at my parents while Blake was gone). And since Blake was gone on Sunday night I had to wait until Wednesday night to watch the season finale of The Walking Dead. Does anyone watch it? I am a HUGE fan, but this season just did nothing for me. Except for staring at Daryl Dixon I just haven’t been impressed. And the season finale was really only good the last 7 minutes of the total 90 minutes. So here’s hoping that gets better next season.

Anyway, happy weekend! We will be playing outside in the warmth.

I’ve mentioned before how much Beau LOVES books. Being read to is one of his favorite things, and something we do every single day. So when Bookroo reached out we were so excited! I mean you should see Beau’s collection of reading material, and honestly you can never have too many books. They sent us the cutest little collection of books that have now become regulars in our reading rotation. One of his new books has a baby in it so of course he has to always point out the baby and say: “baby in a diappy” over and over again! Reading time will always be one of my most favorites with him. We’ve been reading to him since he was in the womb so it’s always a special moment for us. Thanks to Bookroo for partnering up with us! If you want to receive $5 off your order click here!

sick sick sick

Processed with VSCOcam with a6 preset

I’ve been non existent on this blog this week. Sickness hit me hard late Saturday night and stayed with me until right about now. I am still in the no energy stage of being sick. My most horrible symptoms are gone but the week body, fuzzy head, and no appetite still remain. It was one of those sicknesses where you just lay there and ache, and occasionally cry, and then feel worse from the crying because it accentuates the headache and the cough, etc. My husband really knows how to swoop in and be a hero because he took Beau and completely took over all mothering duties for 2 straight days. He even took work off on Monday to let me rest. By Tuesday I had to brave it on my own because he really does have to go to work sometime. It is not fun being sick and taking care of a baby, as any mom will tell you. But my boy really is as sweet as they come and he even took a 4 HOUR NAP on Tuesday!!!! So anyhow, now things are working their way back to normal and I’m just grateful to be feeling good again. Just in time for Easter weekend! Happy Friday guys, I hope everyone stays healthy.
