So What!

So What Wednesday
Linking up with Shannon this week to say so what to a few things!
  • So what if my MIL texted me this morning to see if the little could come stay Thursday & Friday night with them and I couldn't respond YES fast enough!  Let's face it, 3 year olds are jerks and this Momma needs a little break!
  • So what if my sister and her family are MOVING into our basement while they search for a house... Re-read that.   Yeah that means 4 adults and 3 children in a 4 bedroom house.  Oh god.  Good thing we are B.F.F.'s.
  • So what is our husbands are probably going to divorce us for being so annoying when we are together and we will get to live the sister wife life we have secretly talked about :).
  • So what if my kid all of a sudden decided sleep is not her strong suit & it is making me BALD.  No hair don't care.
  • So what if I bought 15 Disney movies on VHS from goodwill last weekend and have been playing them on loop for myself Scarlet.
  • So what if so many people I know are pregnant or have just had squishy babies and I want to squeeze them all!
  • So what if I have accepted the fact that I am a pinterest addict.  The only thing I don't like is when shit I want to buy doesn't link back to a site OR I finally find it and it's $2,483,567.69 for a maxi dress.
  • So what if sister and I got ROBBED by an Indian lady at her garage sale this past weekend when she took a gas oven the tried to steal a pair of flip flops.  When I busted her and told her the shit was five dollars, she threw a handful of nickels totaling a DOLLAR and me and hopped in the car and left. People that come to garage sales are so damn cheap ya'll!
That's it for me this week.  What are you saying So What to?  Link up!

No News

Nothing new going on here. In my world quiet equals awesome.


  •  I could not give less of a shit about a royal baby, although I find the whole succession line crazy and interesting!
  •  This is the rainiest summer we have ever had. It makes for a lot of time stuck indoors... which makes me twitch.
  •  Last weekend the outlaws came up to assist in building the playhouse S got for her birthday. Wow, about 24 man hours later we had this!


I went to Hobby Lobby during a nap and scored all of the summer decor for 70% off!  I mean I just think this house is the cutest thing.  And I'm pretty sure either she hates us or she doesn't think her very own house is cool because she's not playing in it.  WTF guys?  She will not play alone and hello, we don't FIT IN IT...
We had to get mulch to go around the playhouse so if a kid falls from the top they don't break their face, we may have gone a little overboard.  Do you guys know what 10 cubic yards of mulch look like?  Google it.  It's a lot of freaking mulch.

After a full days work Saturday we took the night off to go see Widespread Panic, one of my top 2 favorite bands!  We were blessed with an absolutely amazing show and cannot wait to see them again!
  • We had great seats as usual but I failed to take any pictures because I was too busy rockin' my face off.  Dancing that leaves you sore the next day is the good kind of dancing!
  • Sunday was spent in the hurt locker, no I wasn't hung over, I had an awesome sinus infection moving in...just what I needed to start my week off right!
She calls that thing John is on her Jungle Cheetah.  
Oh ya know, just feeding my baby.


Posing with a birthday invite from her friend!

Riding her Jungle cat.

Sweetest things ever, even if he is wearing crocs...

This is a little magic I whipped up last week.  Cauliflower pancakes.  Money right there I tell ya.  Serve them up with a little bit of sour cream on top!

And another goooood one! Spaghetti Squash Mac & Cheese! It was delish.

I will be making both of these again!

So yeah, not a whole lot of excitement here but we like it that way!

So there's that

Oh yeah hey. We are going to the beach this weekend.  There is a 70% chance of heavy rainfall the entire time we are there.  Ya know, except when we leave on Sunday.  Awesome.  I live for driving a 3 yr old 4 hours, which turns into 5.5 hours, to sit in a condo... Nice.

Also, really glad tomorrow is my Friday.  I know, rub it in more right?

I'm pretty sure I had the best birthday ever this year.  Pretty low key, but the best.  We celebrated with my in laws last week and loved it, Scarlet especially!


We took her to her first baseball game (my request) with a couple of friends and she loved it! I did too! The new Regions Field is a great addition to our city!  

I also got a little friendly with a horse cop.  The horse, not the cop, no worries.


Saturday night (my actual 31st anniversary of exiting the womb) we got a baby sitter and went out to dinner then met some friends... The hubby took me to a great restaurant (really like my favorite ever) then we went and had a Moscow Mule from here.  It was special and made me feel all Harry Potter-ish.  Vodka, ginger beer, and lime juice. 


John took S earlier that day to choose a toy to take to Nonnie's... She said she wanted to be just like her Parpa (my dad) who LOVES to cut the grass...
(ohhhhhh that smile)
