Top 5

The Top 5 Moments of my week were...

1. We took a quick road trip to Indiana.  My hubby got tickets to the ND vs. Michigan State game so he dropped Olive and I off at home and headed to Southbend with his brothers and dad.

 Never get tired of seeing Touchdown Jesus and those yellow mums.

2. We drove through thunderstorms/rain for 8 hours.  We were all excited to make it there safely and excited that the weather was perfect for the rest of the weekend.

We are lucky that Olive does so well in the car.  She doesn't really know any different and has logged 6,000+ road miles since she was born at the end of May.

 

3. We got to see lots of family while we were in town...  Breakfast with my parents, Krissy's 1st birthday party, Olives' first bonfire and s'mores, family pictures and hang out with the cousins.

 4. I was introduced to the brand JOE FRESH @ JCPenney by my good friend!  I was amazed at the selection, affordability and the well stocked clearance sections.  I found these three tops that were around $100 on clearance for $2.97 each!!  $9 was music to my ears.  I am definitely going to be adding more JOE FRESH to my wardrobe.  Thanks for the recommendation, Jacque! 

5. I've almost finished my daughter's nursery.  I checked several DIYs off my to do list this week.  This circle garland turned out really cute and is hanging in a great cluster with the pom poms in her nursery.

Thanks for stopping by!  Hope you have a wonderful weekend.

Terrible Topher

My little Topher is driving me bananas.  

He seems to be going through the Fearsome Fours.  

Let me tell you the trouble he's gotten himself into lately...

He needs to be sitting on my lap any time I sit down.

 He tries to eat my pen e.v.e.r.y. time I go to write.

 If I'm holding Olive, he thinks I should hold him with my other arm.

 When the baby falls asleep, my fur baby promptly finds me.

 I got out all of our fall decorations...

Topher decided he didn't like my leaf napkin holder.

 He's climbing everything.

 I put out comfy beds for him and he ignores them.

 and will only sit in them if I physically place him in it.

Good thing Oliver is taking care of himself these days

because Topher is wearing me out.

I really do love my little Topher and my husband says that I'm just encouraging his neediness by taking pictures of him all the time.  So be it...

Beat Michigan State!

My hubby is at the ND vs. Michigan State game this afternoon with the guys.  He went with his brothers and dad for a quick game day getaway.  While I'm excited for him, I'm jealous that I'm not there with him.  Olive and I will be cheering for the Irish at home today.

Football Baby

Olive is proof that girls can be into football.  She's got quite the game day wardrobe already.  Her dad is thrilled that she's looking so cute in Notre Dame gear.  We are teaching her the fight song and she's excited to watch football with us... well she's just happy to be cuddled and do what we're doing.

 Winning football games is exhausting.

 

 Working on our sad face when we're losing and our fighting Irish pose!

 Touchdown Irish!!
