Insta Friday

 

Insta Friday time! Click the fabulous button above to join the linky party!

My parents drove almost 13 hours to come visit us this weekend! And by "us" I mean their one and only grandchild, Remy. They brought with them this Mickey hat for Remy that our good friends were gracious enough to get monogrammed for him on a recent trip to Disneyland.
I have one when I first went when I was 1 so I'm excited that Remy has his own hat too!

 I love that this kid now enjoys his bath time. So much water splashing ensues, it gets pretty ridiculous.

 Remy enjoying some Grandma time.

 Did my parents really buy me the Baby Bullet? You betcha they did!

The wonderful fabric my Mom picked out for me to make a skirt.

Though I did buy a new duvet this past weekend and I'm finally decorating our bedroom, so I might make some pillows out of this since I like it so much.

 We drove the almost 2 hours to Ikea and the Grandparents bought Remy this red highchair. He loves it!
Also, a big shoutout to my Dad who put together all my Ikea purchases including: this highchair, my curtain rod and curtains, and my new table for my sewing machine. Thanks Pops!

Found a cute black and white tie at the thrift store to make into another tie necklace. This time, my Mom sewed up the back for me and showed me how to hide the stitches because apparently she's pretty fancy like that. My first tie necklace looks like a hack job on the back. Thanks Mom!

You can find the tutorial I used here. 

LOVE this cute little dish I bought at Goodwill for $1.00 to put my rings in. 

The Hubs and Remy enjoying a work call.

Went ahead and chopped off more bangs! Now they're total full frontal (I pulled them to the side here to see if I could still do that) and now I don't know why I waited so long to do it.

Scene: Remy sitting on my lap reading a book
2 seconds later....
Remy hears Stella behind him and flings himself down to get a better look.

{please notice Stella licking her chops since she just finished giving my child a good lick in the face}

Toys, toys, toys...and more toys!
They've officially taken over my home and I only have ONE kid.
I can only imagine the nonsense when we have more kids.
{that's Remy's first finger painting next to the mirror!}

 College football has started and I received my favorite newborn shot of Remy on top of our Texas Tech helmet on a stretched canvas this weekend. I can't wait to decorate our office in Tech colors and put this canvas up.

 

 

He is    t  h  i   s    close to crawling that he gets a little mad when he can't go forward. He then gives up and just rolls to his destination.



And of course I've taken 8 million photos of my child throughout the week so allow me to bore you with some of those to end Insta Friday!  Have a great weekend!  

{I can't believe this adorable creature is all mine!}

Insta Friday

The week through the lens of my IPhone.

There's nothing better than hearing the sounds of this little boy waking up from his nap. Even better? The fact that he deals with my camera in his face every second of his life.  {smile}

 Recipe I took a snapshot of at our friend's Derek & Jenn's house via her Rachel Ray magazine. Nutella, banana, butter?! Sign me up!

 Remy & I in the dressing room. After 2 outfit changes he finally shrieked that it was time for him to get out of that stroller!

Just here playing Mom!

This outfit lasted about 2 minutes after this picture was taken. Exploding poop...one of life's greatest joys.

Picked up something quatrefoil and fabulous at Goodwill. I need to do some revamping before the big reveal.

  Home made pizza! Marcos' was the cheesy pepperoni. Mine, the delicious chicken pesto on the right.

Ikea finally opened its doors in Denver & we finally made the 1.5 hour drive on Saturday. To say it was a madhouse would be an understatement.  

 After a late night feeding I turn to see my two boys sleeping exactly the same way. So cute!


Hope you all have a great weekend!
I'm linking up!
