Lazy Picture Dump

I am SO EXCITED to be going to Savannah for a wedding and Disney afterwards to celebrate Tripp's Birthday!

I am feeling overwhelmed and want to leave you with a few pictures before we go!

I took these last week, Brady has been fighting an ear infection and has cut his first two teeth!

He can soak an entire onesie front in 20 minutes if he is sitting up.  
 Macy's face was to funny not to post


It was Dr. Suess's birthday last Friday so they studied his literature last week.  Tuesday was crazy hair and sock day.

 She LOVES being in the walker it is so funny. 

Brady fell asleep in the jumpy.  LOL


He has the funniest laugh and is so ticklish on his collarbone.

Something I will never forget, how much he loves to hold hands.  It puts him right to sleep.

Sweet Molly!



Brady and Bayleigh, Desiree and Lance's dog!  We were pet sitting while they were in Aruba (jealous)

My mom says he looks like Bruno Mars!

 How sweet are Brady's little feet?  Turn your head, remember this is a LAZY post.  

Oh here's something sure to send Emily over the edge- the other morning Macy went into the freezer and got out the ice cream and helped herself to breakfast while I was on a conference call.  HAHA  No she didn't get in trouble.

Here she is ferociously attacking Gina's birthday balloon.  That thing was TOUGH.  She had a great time with it!

I might have already posted this picture but I think it's so cute.
Macy's finished "Crazy Hair!"


How sweet is this?

Does anyone else have children who get rosy cheek(s) when they are teething?  Sometimes it's both sometimes it's only one.  I'm hoping that it's just teething and not fifth's disease?

KONY 2012

If you don't know- You are about to be left out.
When I first saw this was 30 minutes I was like... Get REAL I don't have 30 minutes, but when it was over I wished it wouldn't end.
WATCH

KONY 2012 from INVISIBLE CHILDREN on Vimeo.

I have to edit this, as I did a LOT of research AFTER I posted this.  Yanking something isn't really my thing, but I will edit this to note the "other side"
Article one
Article two

Make up your own mind, but people are sure to be talking about this!!

Macy-isms

I have been pretty good at figure out the Macy-isms:
Gorilla bar (granola bar)
Yo-grit (yogurt)
Roosters!(Brusters)
Tylen (Tylenol)
Junk Crackers (saltines)
Lion King (Simba)
Mickeys Jungle (Animal Kingdom)
Newseum- Museum
Awful House- Waffle House
Assul- Castle
Habalulah-her American Girl Doll
Happy Meal Store- McDonalds
Fundershirt- Thundershirt


There are tons more but I can't remember them.
Two things Macy has said that I could NOT for the life of me figure out.

One time she was OBSESSED with "Spring time"  She wanted it so bad and I had NO CLUE what it was.  It was a downright battle I think I was in tears at one point because she was SO MAD. This went on for about a week.  One day (after i had put away the laundry she said " MOM!!!!!!!!  HERE IS MY SPRING!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!"
"Spring" was a certain pair of panties with flowers on it.
Oh, of course!  That!
??????

Macy also started talking about "Marina"  Greg thought it was because he and his dad talk about boats. I thought it was a sign from God himself that I needed to get some type of birth control. (Mirena)

Turns out (and this took us a few weeks) Marina is a character on Macy's favorite show- Fresh Beat Band.  One day her class had a substitute and when I picked her up I laughed SO HARD when I saw her paper.  She told her that her name was  "Marina"
See the paper- top right corner?  LOL

Auntie Sarah Visits Part Two!

On Sunday we had a BIG family birthday party.

Look Vanna White showed up to model the cakes!.... mmmmmm

It was Auntie Laurie's 29th birthday, Jack's 4th, Jennifer's 22nd, Sarah's 23rd and Grampas 84th!


Tyler and his Girlfriend Anna



Haha typical.... Uncle Johnny and Mark goofing off.
You can listen to Uncle Johnny on Victory 91.5 every Saturday night.  He co hosts the evening show- Backtracks!

"Queenie" and Grampa, who share a birthday


Jack showing me his AWESOME motorcycle.  I am really trying to get a hang on the lingo, and figure out what little boys like.  That is totally foreign to me.


We played a game called Fact or Crap!  I did everything that Uncle Johnny and Auntie Jeanette did, they were the smartest. LOL


Macy still tells me that she is going to marry Jace at Disney World.  I swear I have not planted that idea in her mind, it was all her own.  I will break it to her later while it is legal, it's probably not a good idea.

Newly engaged Jeanette and Scott

Macy eating her cheerios.  Or is Gigi force feeding her?

Auntie Jeanette and Tank

Auntie Sarah was able to capture a half smile!

Sarah and Chelsie left and headed to Athens to visit girlfriends.

They got to see Kristin!



A couple of girls in my family went to see The Descendants (so glad I didn't go.  I can't do death movies....)  Side note, the Hunger Games trailers put me into immediate heart palpitations.  I want to see the movie but I just can't.

After the movie I met them at PF Changs!  Greg got to come too!
Yum!



Sarah decided to stay one extra day and so the night before she left we got together one more time at my parents and had a yummy dinner and visited.



Macy said for a few days afterwards,"And we see Auntie Sarah TOO?!"

Can't wait to see you again soon Auntie Sar!

Auntie Sarah Comes to VISIT!!!!!!

It's no secret I LOVE my family.
More than anything, I love for us to be together.  I am literally tearing up right now thinking about Sarah and Weston and how much I miss them.  They literally make me happy, just by being around them.  It is really rare for us to be in discord- we would all do anything for each other and I just love them.

Yesterday they made an announcement (on Facebook- sis I am a little hurt you didn't call or text me!)
But I understand, you can't call EVERYONE and tell them.  But if you get pregnant and I find out on Facebook you are TOAST!
Weston has decided to reenlist for 3 more years.  
I cried.
I have to be honest!  I am selfish and I want them to be here in GA with me.  
But it's not all about me- and I love them and I know it is what is best for THEM which I totally support.  It's hard having your best friend so far away!

They are planning on finishing school and who knows?
They will either come back to civilian life or make a career with the military.  Weston could retire at 37 and start a completely new career!
I am going to start lobbying for a military base to be built in Atlanta.

And I have to include a picture of them....  At Disney ;)


OK, back to Sarah's visit!!!!!
We started our visit at McCrays.  I have never been there! It was a lot of fun- but a little loud.  The food was good!!!

Sarah was determined to take more pictures this trip because at Christmas we sucked big time at getting photos.

When I saw these pictures I laughed out loud.
Smile!

DAD! Your eyes are closed!  Open them!

 Not like that! Stop being silly.

I guess that is where Macy gets it from?!!

HAHAHAHAHAHA

Sarah and Greg

Chelly Miller-McIver-Gaga

Sarah, Brady and me.  
Brady got a new toupee- you like?

Mom with her blonde curly headed daughter

I sent this picture to Weston.  Chelsie wanted to be sure he knew she missed him the most.

The waiter took our photo for us.  Apparently, I hunch over BIG TIME when I feed Brady.  I never noticed that.  I will blame it on not having a boppy.  Dad's like get me the  heck outta here.

I sent this picture to Weston- big Braves fan!
 Macy was sleep eating her ice cream.
 Trying to get a picture of them together.  Brady looks like he is going to eat her.


I love this of mom and I
Afterwards we went back to my parents house and looked at the Trader Joe's items they had bought earlier in the day.
 How sweet is this?
 We miss her already.
