Friday Randoms...
So my fans have requested an entry. haha. (By fans, I mean my mom and brother). We are still here. I know I have been a little lax on the whole blogging lately but we have had out hands full. More on that later.
It's Friday. Yay for the weekend. And Yay for this beautiful weather!
Speaking of beautiful weather - I had to bust out my shorts this week! It also officially became sandal season in my house. And speaking on sandals...I decided I needed to spruce up my selection. I am LOVING all these bright colored sandals that are out now. Check out these adorable DV by Dolce Vita. I love the colors and they are only $69! I got the Mint ones - they are actually more of a turquoise and will be adorable to add a pop of color to some spring outfits!
We had lunch with my friend Nat and her little one month old Jackson today (He is adorable!). After lunch we headed over to the Right Start to pick up a booster seat for my little man. I was looking for a seat that would be more hidden (since our house is going on the market I am trying to minimize the baby stuff) and am excited that we located one! My friend MK recommend the Cooshee Booster but I couldn't find a black one anywhere...not even online (hence the picture I found is pink). I was thrilled to find it at the Right Start. Ryan is going to be so happy sitting like a big kid with mommy and daddy at the dinner table tonight!
I finally renewed our family membership to the arboretum. If you are ever wondering if it's worth it - it is! It's $109 for the year and you get up to six additional people to bring with you plus free parking. You basically make up the price within your first two visits. Plus they have awesome exhibits and fun summer concert series. We went almost weekly last spring and fall and will probably do the same this year. On Mondays and Tuesdays they have children activities complete with story time, music, a petting zoo and face painting. And not to mention the amazing pumpkin village in October. Anyhow I digress, the next big exhibit they will be by Chihuly. There is lots of excitement about this and I think it's going to be pretty cool - can't wait to see it in May.
So it's March and it appears that most of my girly shows will be on hiatus until April - what am I going to do? Well, I started seeing previews for the Hunger Games movie so I am thinking I might start reading those books....should I get sucked in? Kevin was basically a single man when I was reading the Twilight Trilogy. (I guess it was a good thing they were an easy and quick read!) hmmm decisions decisions.
Well, that's it for now. I have got to get things ready for playgroup at our house today. The weather is great so we will be playing outside. Also super excited for my friend Mk and her two little ones to spend the weekend with us! Hope everyone has a great weekend!

Friday Fun
Hope it made you laugh!
I found this on pinterst (but with a weiner dog) and forgot to pin it. When I went back to find it, it was gone. So I made one with Bob - oh Bob....

Happy Valentine's Day
Hope everyone had a wonderful Valentine's Day! We had a great day at the McDonough household...
Daddy got up with Ryan and when they came into the room to wake me Ryan brought me a little card he was working on. I just love anything that he makes (even though you kinda start expecting these things) I just can't get enough - so cute.
With R in school I went and got my hair done and then hit up the gym - yeah I didn't plan that well but my appointments were set so it was too late to change. Afterwards I picked up Ryan from school and to my surprise he had a few Valentine's from some of his classmates - so cute! I was a little bummed that it NEVER even crossed my mind to make valentine's for his buddies but there is always next year. Man...I would have been all over that!!!
When we got home we were surprised with Tiff's Treats - and wow - a lot of them!
Holy smokes....we ended up with THREE dozen cookie, 6 chocolate covered strawberries, regular milk, chocolate milk and a little festive balloon. Wowzers. Both my mom and Kevin sent the treats...apparently they know I like cookies? Ryan and I shared a few cookies before heading out to deliver some goodies to his cousins.
Kevin got home a smidgen early and we exchanged cards. Ryan also gave him his Valentine card that he worked so hard on.
Then we got to cooking. Kevin was going to prepare everything but then I saw this twice baked potato casserole on Pinterest and decided I needed to make that. It was a little dry but still ridiculously delicious. Next time I will add milk.
And that about summed it up. Nothing fancy and it was perfect for us. Love my little family!
Hope everyone had a great day!

Picture of card coming soon!
We stopped at Society Bakery on the way to school to pick up some cupcakes for his teachers. There was quite a line (good thing we left a little early) but little R did good waiting - it took 30 minutes! We were a tad late to school - oops!

Pic of ACTUAL card coming! Still need to take!
Anyhoo, Kevin grilled some amazing steaks and we had a nice little home cooked meal. If you haven't noticed I have been a little bad at the home cooking lately....oops!
And that about summed it up. Nothing fancy and it was perfect for us. Love my little family!
Hope everyone had a great day!

Perception
I saw these floating around on facebook and they made me giggle!
Before I had Ryan I was an online media planner/buyer - this is pretty spot on!
haha! Thought they were funny and wanted to share!
