SURPRISE!!! Olivia has BIG News!

Yep, you read it right. Olivia is going to be  BIG sister! We are beyond excited and by this picture you can tell that Olivia is too. The baby is due March 6th which will make them 2 years and about a month apart. We might be a tad busy in the spring. We are not finding out what this baby is this time (maybe writing that on here will help me stick to it) so we will find out if Olivia has a brother or sister the day we meet the baby. How exciting!!!



"who, me???" Yep, you sister!!
If I don't update as much as I have in the past it's because I am spending some precious time with this little one before she's not the little one any longer. :)))

Paradise...the cruise

Remember, we are playing major catch up. About a month ago we went with Hays' family on a cruise. It was a week long vacation that was much needed and enjoyed. We left from Fort Lauderdale and went to St. Thomas, St. Martaan and the Bahamas. We went to several different beaches, snorkeled, and did a ropes/zip lines course. We had all meals prepared for us, our bed folded back each night and Olivia was with her Nano and Pops....a true vacation. We missed Olivia terribly but had a fabulous time!

Our boat, The Allure of the Seas. The biggest boat in the world. It was REALLY big!









Randomness.....

Peekaboo :)

 Yep, we're those people. You know, the ones that see something like this and say I will NEVER do that! Hahaha! Well, we are! We are using a leash! It was becoming a necessity when the girl would NOT stay in the basket and wanted to run ALL over the place when let down. Never say never!

The girl LOVES her daddy, on his shoulders, on his lap or on his hip. Doesn't matter, she loves him any way.

Shhhhh...don't tell Hays! Olivia had her first happy meal from McDonald's. She wasn't in love if that helps any.

Always something random going on around here. A dog bone and flip flops in the doll house???

Our second home this summer....the splash park!

We are learning new words everyday. This day it was hat. I think she got it!

The girl loves to play in her bed...wonder if she's just weird like that?? She will spend up to 30 minutes just playing away with all her stuffed animals.

Was it somone's birthday...SURPRISE!!!

Hays' 30th birthday was July 26th. It was a very low key birthday for him....until Friday night. Somehow I was able to pull off a surprise birthday party for him with the help of many friends and family. I had been planning this party for months which is very difficult when you live with the person the surprise is for. So after many deleted texts and little white lies we pulled it off and he was completely surprised.

Hays had many friends and family come to help celebrate the big 3-0! We had a little pool and a blow up slide/bouncy house for all the little ones and some yummy pizza from Sal and Mookies. This cake was a yummy chocolate on the bottom and strawberry (Hays' favorite) on the top.

 A little blurry but this is when he walked in and saw 30+ people there. SURPRISE!








I can't believe we actually pulled it off. It was a great night. Happy Birthday Hays!

Beach Trip: Numero Tres

Okay, so it is catch up time! I have been neglecting the blog for a few weeks now and it is time to play catch up. So....here we go. Many more posts to come in the next few days. I know y'all have missed seeing this cutie patootie!

A few weeks ago Olivia and I took our annual girls trip+2 with Nano, Aunt Amie, Aunt Cindy and Kai and Dalton. We had a great time. We were able to stay from Thursday-Monday but it rained a majority of the time. We still had a fantastic time shopping, relaxing and what else, but taking care of babies! We look forward to going on this trip every summer and really appreciate the Collins allowing us to stay at their condo.
