Catch Up

Goodness... Lots of phone pics to share!
 
Last Wednesday or Thursday it was raining and Channing and I sat out on the front porch to enjoy it until it got all crazy and started blowing rain on us... out!


She did this SWEET ninja kick move right when I was trying to take our picture

 
 
Selfie Queen



Late night Friday evening snuggles watching Max & Ruby!


And again...


Our friends Nick & Danielle came in town to look for houses again and to pick up Danielle's new car so we took it out for a spin while Channing napped and happened to wind up at The Lake House for a drink! Ahhhh!


Yesterday I DID NOT feel like running but I did and accidentally ran longer than I had planned! And felt great afterwards... thank goodness because Channing is really not wanting to go to bed lately and I think it is because it is SO LIGHT outside at 8:30 still and she should be going to bed around 7:30... believe me she is a PILL in the mornings when she goes to bed late... awesome. 


I made shredded Brussels Sprouts and Chicken Sausage with Laughing Cow cheese and it was SO good! Thanks Heather for posting this... I finally tried it... holy cow it stinks your house up though.... but well worth it. 


Refusing bed and catching up on Real Housewives with me...


Her attempt at the 'hey, mom, aren't I so cute even though I should've been in bed over and hour ago' face! Worked...


We've been making smoothies this week with the Bullet. Yummy!
 
Kale strawberries raspberries blueberries blackberries banana and frozen peaches with some coconut water!

 
That's all for now!

PINK

This my friends is the picture of a girl with MAJOR Pink Eye in BOTH eyes. Pink eye isn't fun and it hurts and is annoying...and lets not even go there with those drops they give you to put into your kiddo's eyes. People walking by probably think that something horrible is happening inside our house. It is a full blown melt down most of the time... but this morning I am happy to report it went much better...


If there is anybody that reads my blog they might have noticed that Channing is totally into taking pictures with my phone right now. If it is on silent she wants the sound turned on because she loves the clicking sound it makes. She now knows how to turn it around to take 'selfies' haha... but this it out of control hahahahaha


After noticing the dreaded pink eye we headed up to the DR... confirming we were right on. 


They called in the drops but darn it wasn't ready when we got to Target soooo I browsed and Channing took more pictures...






CRAY CRAY at lunch. This is how we spend most of our meals at the table... she is obsessed with the mirror behind our dining table.... seriously we have to remind her to eat most of the time and she may have fallen out of her chair looking at herself a time or two. 

Duckface returns... what the heck haha?!


We got out the mermaid pool and I put her to work filling it up! 

 
 
That lasted all of ten minutes and before I knew it she was naked laying out on her beach towel.
 
This girl is a hoot! Be free Channing Layne be free hahahaha!



We capped off the day with 'planking' on dad... awesome.

Vine


We had a busy full fun weekend. It all started Friday with my girl posing like this for her morning picture!
 


My sweet friend Shelby had her sweet little boy Graham Thursday and I went to see them Friday!
 
Oh the cuteness!



My friend Julie gave Channing this UT Cheerleading Uniform for her birthday and Channing was begging to wear it all last week. So Friday night I put it on her and she LOVED it!!
 


This guy was hanging out on our front porch Friday night when we went out to watch the sunset and hang out. GROSS. 


Have you guys downloaded the App VINE?
 
Plain and simple IT.IS.AWESOME!
 
Go get it... you will love it.
 





We went to some of Chandler's parents friends farm Saturday afternoon into the evening. Channing LOVES to fish! It was so fun and peacful to be out there... plus they had Babe's chicken and that really hit the spot!
 
A BIG thank you to Alice and Stan for having us out! I am sure we will be back!
 





 
This may or may not have been the fish that flopped into the boat which caused me to jump into the back of the tiny paddle boat hahaha!





My MIL and Alice taking an evening paddle boat ride!

 
Yesterday morning we met my rents for breakfast at Crossroad's. I cannot get enough of their Sticky Buns! TO DIE FOR!


I have had my eye on these acrylic chairs from IKEA for weeks. I sold our chairs and found the exact chairs I wanted on Craig's List for HALF PRICE! YA HOO!


My morning outfit haha and you can see miss thang in the background refusing to take a picture with me... hahaha
