Friday Phone dump: Mother's Day Edition

Brandon and the girl's had my Mother's day celebration on Saturday (the day before Mother's day) because we were going out. Which meant Presley and Harper were staying the night at Grammie and Poppa's. I forgot to take a picture of the roses and my present (new workout gear), but I thought both cards were hilarious. Presley's is very interesting??? It's the one with the diamonds all over it.

Brandon's card was so sweet! I don't want to embarrass him, so I'll just show his hashtags. 

They all cooked breakfast for me, and it was delicious! The best part was they cleaned everything up, as well. I hate doing dishes! Harper enjoyed playing under the table while we ate.

My brother even had flowers delivered to me! He's pretty awesome.

Later that day, we drove our to Grammie and Poppa's to drop the girls off for the night. Then Brandon and I headed off to see Eli Young, Eric Church, and Kenny Chesney in concert.



The next day was Mother's day and I got sleep in!!! It was amazing. We spent the afternoon with Brandon's parents and my two favorite little girl's. I didn't get very many cell phone pics, but did get some with the good camera. Go me! Love that my baby still wants to follow me everywhere. It's going to be a sad day when I'm not the center of her world anymore...

The rest of the week was super busy, but the weather was awesome (minus the night we had 13 tornado's touch down in DFW)! We played outside every chance we got.





Presley had her end of the year program. It was so cute! Harper had to attend to a few business calls before it began. 


A special treat for the star performer.

Thursday was Presley's last day of school. I had a newborn shoot that morning, so I didn't get a chance to take a pic. Oh, well. This week was super busy, and next week should be about the same. My baby is turning ONE next Sunday!!!!!

Mommy

Mommy.
It's the best title I've ever been given. Unless my child has been screaming it for 15 minutes straight, but you know what I mean.

The best days of my life were these girls birthdays (i'm not really a fan of either picture, but both were the only ones taken of me and my babes in the hospital).


I can't imagine what life would be like without my two little ladies.Trust me. It's not all flowers and rainbows around here, but it's totally worth it.

Happy belated Mother's day to all the Mommy's out there.

Friday Phone Dump

I have done it! I have actually done it. Friday phone dump on a Friday!!!


Meet Harper. The sippy cup stealer. 

Snuggling with my sweet girl after a birthday party and before a pretty bad bump to the head.

Midweek lunch date with Daddy at Torchy's tacos. You can kind of see her black eye and banged up head. Presley was with us in all the above pics. She just chooses to stay far away from the camera.


Princess Merida curls for Presley. I told her she didn't have to take a rest if she let me curl her hair. I am not above bribing.

Every Thursday during the summer,  Rockwall has concerts on the lake for free. Awesome for the kids and the adults. 



I had a personal training session on the lake this morning and decided it was too nice of a day to go home. We packed a picnic (or drove thru Chickfila), and hung out in the harbor. I asked both girls to smile in this first picture and this is what I got. The girls love their food!



Then I let them run free in an attempt to wear them out. It worked. Even I needed a nap.


Happy Friday, Y'all!

Word{full} Wednesday: Cinco de Mayo

All I wanted was a good picture of both girls in their Mexican dresses, so we got them ready and brought them to the park.


I had a great location and my good camera in hand.

This was the best I could get.
Blahhhh....

I did, however, get a surprisingly cooperative model that afternoon.


This one. Not so much.

So after a sad attempt at good pics of the girls together, we headed home. And this is what I get...
All smiles. Thank goodness for my iPhone.
 I'm starting to think my good camera has child repellent on it.

Weekend Wrap-up with Mimi

Mimi came to visit, Yay! This means lots of playing, shopping, and fun. 

Last Friday was beautiful, so we headed out to the park.

My friend, Secily, broke out a bottle of red. Harper thoroughly enjoyed the rubber cork.


We spent lots of playtime outdoors and even broke out the swimming pool.



On Sunday, we went to Eddie V's for my brother's birthday. It was awesome! My  wonderful in laws stayed with the girls, so we could have an adult dinner out.


My Mom's birthday is also this week, so we treated her to a massage on Monday morning. That evening, we had my friends gender reveal party. I took P, but Mom watched Harper for me. One kid is SO easy! Little groupies rockin' out at the party.

 Tuesday, we had a little birthday celebration for Mimi. Fried chicken and Nothing Bundt Cakes. Yeah, we're classy like that.


After all the fun this week, these two were worn out!

Thank you for a wonderful week, Mimi! We miss you already.
