Sentence (Or Two) Per Picture

By Courtney 26 Comments

Hello, hello! How are you all doing so far this week? Good? Great?!

Since I already had yesterday’s post scheduled to go live, I didn’t really get a chance to update you all on the weekend. So I figured I’d go ahead and do that today, since I’m sure you’re all waiting on the edge of your seat for it.

Where is that sarcasm font when you need it?

Date night on Friday night for Jay’s company party! I wore my same Target dress as I did for my company party, but paired it with knee high boots and a scarf.

IMG_5558

Jay took full advantage of his built in designated driver and may or may not have been drinking out of the award he and his team are holding there. I missed being able to just drink the good stuff out of a regular glass.

IMG_5548

Sausage, egg, and cheese sandwiches are always a delicious breakfast option. Even better when they’re made by someone other than yourself (amiright?!).

IMG_5554

Our bedroom and Lucas’s bedroom both have all sorts of paint samples on the wall currently. Good news is that I think we have our colors narrowed down to just one or two per room, so we’re getting somewhere!

IMG_5557

Saturday was a lazy day for all of us, and we all stayed home in our PJ’s or cozies all day. Oh, and Lucas is still keeping us on our toes for where he decides he wants to nap these days.

IMG_5560

One of Lucas’s favorite things to ask (usually right when I’m about to do something else/leave the room/start cooking dinner/etc.) is “Mommy, snuggle couch?!” Usually I’ll come back and he’ll sit with me for about two seconds, but this weekend, he gave me some extra snuggles which I adored.

IMG_5561

We rounded out a chill Saturday with a quiet night on the couch and some popcorn (not usually a big craving of mine, but had to have some). Cody is obsessed with popcorn, and came running up to the couch as soon as I opened the bag.

IMG_5565

We break off little pieces with no kernels and he goes to towwwwwn on them. Seriously, since when do cats like…popcorn?

IMG_5566

Sunday morning, I met up with a bunch of our girlfriends for a “style party” at the LOFT. My friend Christina won it, so we were all invited in and got an additional 20% off on top of their current sales!

IMG_5569

Girfriends + shopping + extra discounts + mimosas + baked goods? Best. morning. ever.

IMG_5567

My selections are fairly limited currently, with the growing bump and all, but I did score a cozy grey shirt off the clearance rack for about $10, along with this cardigan and the necklace shown (which I can’t seem to find on their website anywhere?!).

IMG_5568

Sunday afternoon, we headed over to the open house at Lucas’s soon-to-be preschool come the fall.

IMG_5572

The place was packed, and Lucas had a blast checking out all of the new toys and sliding down the big slide you see back there.

IMG_5574

Turns out, preschool is tiring! Enough so have him actually nap on his “floor bed” (aka, the only place he still sleeps at night).

IMG_5575

We tried a new dinner on Sunday night – Cheesy Skillet Gnocchi + some big side salads. The gnocchi dish was good, but a little too salty…we’d definitely cut that way down next time if we made it again.

IMG_2077

And that’s a wrap of our weekend!

How about you guys? How many of you were snowed in?? I’ll be honest…I’m super glad it missed us! :)

    Style party, pj day and a date night- what a weekend! At one point we had five shades of blue on our wall trying to pick the perfect color. It is one of life's greatest challenges!

    We got 20" and I haven't been out of this house since Thursday afternoon. I.am.going.CRAZY. On a more positive note, I think you guys are doing such a great job with Lucas and his bed. As a new mom, I tend to get worked up when things don't happen the way I want them to, and I've been trying my damndest to take a more relaxed approach to things. Maybe the location of his bed/nap hasn't ever frustrated you, but what I'm trying to say is, you guys are great parents. I hope that when Jack is that age and doesn't want to sleep anywhere but on the floor or in his glider, or won't eat foods unless they're a certain color, or any other quirky situation that will *absolutely* arise, that I'm as good about it as you guys are! <3

      You are so sweet, thanks girl! It stressed me out for a little while (kids are supposed to sleep in beds, all cozied up under the blanket!?!), but I figured hey, he's sleeping, he's safe, and he's fine. So we're just rolling with it for now :)

    I should admit I was a bit jealous of the snow...just because I like any reason for a snow day to stay home from work. ;)

    When my parents bought their house about eight years ago, we had a good two-month period of patches of similar colors on all our walls so my mom could figure out which colors she liked best in all the lighting. I honestly thought it was the craziest thing at the time (I was in 6th grade), but it makes a lot of sense. I'm glad to know other people do it, too! And the "snuggle-couch" thing totally made my heart melt. So sweet!

    My husband was in Las Vegas for a Bachelor Party, so my mom came to keep me company for our snowy weekend. I was so happy that she came since we were stuck in the house all weekend. I've never been one to test paint by putting it on the walls, I always just pick one and go with it. I feel like I'd end up buying 5 buckets of paint and then only using one!

      Haha, luckily they make mini sample cans, so you don't have to get the huge buckets of each color ;)

    My cat, Henry, LOVES popcorn. So did my old roommate's cat. Like, obsessive-trying-to-take-the-bag-away-from-me-obsessed. I feel like it's only boy cats that like popcorn, though. My girls never seem interested.

    Hey girl! Two things: 1) you MUST get the Home Depot paint app that lets you take a pic of the room & see the wall color! 2) this is coming from a good place, just a thought, microwave popcorn is soooo bad for you from a chemical standpoint (carcinogen), & I know you are pregnant, so I wanted to let you know in case you already didn't!

      Thank you! I honestly couldn't tell you the last time I had microwave popcorn (months? a year?!), mostly for that reason so I do try to keep it in moderation. ;) And I'll definitely have to check out that app!

    I had to laugh when I saw your son sleeping on the ground! My son did the same thing until he turned 3. They're funny!

      Haha, glad to know he isn't the only one! I often wonder how long this will go on for! What was the turning point for your son?? Did he just one day change his mind??

        I SO wanted him to sleep in the crib that converted to a toddler bed because it was cute, just his size, I'd bought bedding and bedroom accessories that matched and the list goes on...but I finally just decided to buy a full bed for his room and bought a rail thing for one side. We shoved the other side against a wall so he would feel safer and we laid with him to get him used to it. He slept on the floor for a solid 18 months though before that worked! Kids are funny! I'm totally with you on if they're sleeping, that's all that matters.

    I slept on a "floor bed" until I left for college, I think. Once I got married I kicked the habit....so be patient with Lucas. :)
