Our Weekend

Our weekend, in cell phone pictures.

1. Who spends $45 at the dollar store? How does that happen?

I'll tell you how it happens. I run out by myself, without Dan reigning me in, and Olivia takes the mother of all naps - so I never have to come home.

2. I did a lot of spray painting this weekend. Including, but not limited to, my feet.

Many dollar store vases, glassware, and frames for Olivia's first birthday.



3. We took Olivia to her fifth, sixth and seventh breweries. NoDa, Birdsong, and Heist were all within a half mile of one another.


Mmmm Beer.
At Birdsong, there was live music - including a bongo player. Olivia was in heaven. She was smiling - and hitting the chair along with the bongo player. She was clapping for them. I think she could have stayed all night.




4. Olivia stole my piece of pizza, ate half the slice, and gave it a thumbs up. "You guys have been holding out the good stuff." Wait until you try cake, Olivia.


5. We are working more on walking - really hoping she would be able to walk to down the aisle in a wedding she is in in two weeks. It looks like she wants to take things slowly. Still walking with a destination, but I don't think she will make it down the aisle.


6. Ughhh. Monday.

    1. Her smile makes me so happy too! :) I also got a handful of Halloween things at the dollar store - I figured you'd be proud of that. 45 things happened fast!

  2. I'm pretty sure Olivia gets cuter by the day! You dress her in the cutest clothes. I love the vases, they turned out awesome. I cannot for the life of me get mine to turn out right. I either have drips or when I peel the tape off the paint comes off with it lol. Can you believe our babies are going to be 1 in less than 3 weeks!?! I don't think I'm ready for Mason to be a toddler yet. She might surprise you and just take off one day. When Mason started walking it seemed like one day he'd go a few feet and the next I had to run to keep up with him.

    1. I think I got really lucky with the vases. I used painters tape and krylon metallic and peeled the tape off after a couple hours. I didn't put much thought into it because they were only a dollar. I can't believe they are going to be 1 so soon! It doesn't seem like it's been an entire year! She changes every day, and I want to soak it all up because shes growing up too fast! About walking - that's what people keep saying. She's been walking for about 6 weeks now - and not much progress in her distance :) but it is a lot of fun that she still likes to be held!

    1. Now I want brownies with ice cream! :) I have a feeling little miss currently loves protein will turn into her mama - an obsession with sugar - once she has cake!
