Wine & Design

Last night was a first! Usually Blair, Marcy and I go out to dinner once a month to just catch up and have some girl time! Well, we thought this month it might be fun to spice it up a little bit. There is this new art studio called Wine & Design....and what a fabulous concept it is. They have a calender for the whole month, and each day you can see what they are going to paint that night. The cost is around $35, and that includes everything that you need EXCEPT your beverage and food of choice! It's such a relaxed, laid back atmosphere! The theme of the night was "Hole N One"....so, voila!
*don't judge, i have't picked up a paint brush since high school*

As I walked back in the house (hubby went to see "A-Team" with the boys), Mr. Duke I guess got bored and decided to pull full sets of shoes, matching shoes at that, out into our living room. Lucky for him, no damage was done!

Happy Tuesday everyone! Big day tomorow, and I can't wait...details to come

Pssst....

Calling all ladies!!!!!!

 This product is an absolute MUST!!!
I first heard about the whole "dry shampoo" idea when I went and got my hair highlighted last month. My stylist was telling me all about, and how great it was. I have to say I was a little hesitant when hearing her say that I could go multiple days without washing my hair. I'm usually good for every other day then it starts to look like a big 'ol greasy mess! But then, the other weekend while down in Florida, one of my besties had a bottle of "Pssst" and insisted it was a lifesaver. Well, being that I'm all big and pregnant, and my appearance has taken a step back lately; I am ALL about easyness in my life. We were getting ready for my baby shower, and of course decided to rock greasy curly hair, and with a few sprits of this on my roots....my hair looked good as new!!!! Talk about impressed!!
WELL, yesterday I finally made the $5.99 Walgreens purchase (yes, don't buy the expensive salon stuff, I promise this IS just as great!)! It has already changed my world, seeing as how today is Thursday and I haven't washed my hair GASP, since Monday!
Go out and get yourself some today, I promise you will not be disappointed!

Happy Thursday!!

27 weeks

I am much overdue for a Baby Colt update! Life has been super! crazy and hectic, but the fun kind! I have been trying to cram as much traveling in as possible, as I know I am about to enter my third trimester next week (what? has it really gone by this quick?!?) that my energy levels are going to decrease, and the discomfort level is probably only going to increase! Sleeping has become a big issue for me, and quite frankly turning me into a grouch in the morning, which I know Matt as just loved :) In the past few weeks though, this baby has become soo incredibly active and she is doing a fabulous job at letting her dad and I know that she is in there :) I just sit throughout the day watching my stomach move all over the place, and then nighttime must be her favorite part of the day because she is just punching away. I mean full blown jabs, and of course it's all while I am trying to sleep! However, I wouldn't trade it for the world. It has been the most amazing experience, and I am just more and more ready each day to meet this little peanut!
Matt and I have still been busy getting stuff ready at the house. The big items for her room are almost all purchased, and we are slowly getting it decorated. I am headed back out of town again for the next two weekends, home for one, then we are basically gone every weekend the month of July. So my weeks I am sure will be filled with more "nesting" as they like to call it. Oh- in case anyone was wondering, she is still the "no name baby". We attempted to agree on one while out to dinner celebrating our ONE year wedding anniversary this past weeend...but, no such luck! AND we've decided not to tell anyone what it is either until she makes her debut in September...talk about torture for this girl right here!!
