Five for Friday

Now that I have a home computer (yes, I still live as though it is 1993-don't judge), I can update my blog with ease. Seriously, I love a smartphone but I had to get a contact yesterday because I've been looking at that tiny screen for too long. And no, that is not a typo. I just got one contact. Apparently only my right eye needed help. The left one is doing great. I got glasses too. I decided to go on and get regular ones even though a monocle wold have probably been cheaper. I know you are probably thinking, "What is a monocle?". He ya go:

Now you know why I decided against it...

On to my real post:

I've decided to list five things each Friday that I either love, want to buy, or seriously need. So, if this doesn't interest you. Don't read my blog on Fridays. Let's see how long this lasts.

5 Things That I Love:

#1: Louis...duh

#2: Summer Vacation. I am very sad that it is half over. Boo

#3: The Miss Mississippi Pageant. Yes, I LOVE it. It's next week, so I'm sure you will be reading a post all about it.

#4: My new computer.

#5: "The Other Bolen Girl". I just finished reading it, and now I am obsessed with learning more about the life of Henry XIII.

Oh Ashley

So...poor little Ashley on the Bachelorette. She is sad. Bentley left and she CANNOT get over him. She is seriously missing out on some great (seemingly) guys- Ames, JP, Ryan, and Mickey (even though he wore man capris...uncool). But what I seriously do not get is the obsession with the Josh Groban twins. Yuck. Not only is this the most pathetic season yet, but Ash stinks at picking out dates. First, she had the guys roast her. Fail. Then they had to box. Seriously? Dumb. And poor, sweet Ames getting hurt. So sad. Can she just skip to the final two with Ames and JP. That would make me happy.
Side note...was anyone else under the impression that the Bentley hotel scene was going to be last night? Not funny ABC. Now I have to watch next week. Those producers are so smart.

Happy Father's Day

Nursery

Louis is growing so much! He can now prop himself up on his hands while sitting. Yesterday, he went to nursery for the first time. He seemed really happy. He was exhausted, though! He slept all night, ate at six and slept two more hours. He has taken three Naps today. I hope he gets a little more used to the action at Small World before August!

Summer...finally!

Friday was my last day of school, and I am beyond excited to be home with Louis for two months! To start off the summer, we went to the pool Sunday and Monday. Getting a baby ready for the pool is exhausting! Good thing he doesn't mind the sunscreen process. He loves to sit on the top step of the pool and watch the other kids play. He also loves to sleep in the shade. Go figure. I bought him a baby pool yesterday, so I figure we'll use that a lot instead of hauling everything to the country club. I know summer will fly by, so I'm trying to spend ad much time as possible with Louis before school starts back! It'll be here before we know it!
I don't have any pool pictures, but here is a random cute one...

Mother's Day

So you know how your mom always said "Oh you don't have to get me anything. You're my gift."? She wasn't kidding. Although Louis did an awesome job picking out my gifts (thanks Rob), I really couldn't ask for anything more than the perfect baby God blessed me with. Mother's Day should not only be a day to celebrate mothers, but it should be a day to he thankful for your kids.
