I’m trying to soak up all this baby sweetness right now.
I LOVE micah’s age. (almost 9 months?? <–3rd baby)
It’s such a fun time where his personality
is coming out..he is crawling and wanting to play! He is a lovey baby.
And his sleeping habits are getting better. Not perfect.. but better!
I’ve been busy getting things ready for Friday!
I’m hosting a little interactive play date at
my IKEA’s VIP IKEA FAMILY Party. I get to play house in one of their rooms! woot!
Attendees walk through the store and stop at different locations.
I’m showcasing how to throw a Back to School Play Date/Party.
I made up lots of fun printables to go with the theme!
And MIGHT have snacked on my photo props while I made them. ;)
Can’t wait to share all the cute and easy details!
This weekend..was for sock buns and selfies!
Had a last minute cook out that forced us to clean our house…
and Micah mastered the art of smoochies.
(dress from target. sock bun from h&m)
ps. my anonymous commenter who thinks I
have a big forehead is gonna lOVEEEE these photos!!!!!
bahaha.
I’m coordinating our Bible Camp (Vacation Bible School) at our Church.
“A Radical Ride on the Wings of Prayer!”–airport/sky theme
So of course I’m making passports, staff badges, a baggage claim, a security gate, a sky room…….
I MIGHT be building an airplane hanger out of pvc pipes…….. SO FUN. and ridiculous I know.
But the whole idea is to make our week at Bible Camp an experience
that makes the kids fall in love with their Faith and their God.
Teaching them how to pray and talk to Jesus like a best friend! I can’t wait to share the details of the week.
I won’t be sharing photos of the week..but I’ll share the before set up. :)
Micah is on the move! So that means picking up toys more often…
He is a lot like how sophia was when she was a baby. (easy going)
EXCEPT he puts things in his mouth when she didn’t.
Holy cow……He is getting big..but still cuddly!! :)
Boom. Sail Boat Lunch.
creative genius at work here.
That made them happy for 2.5 minutes give or take….
mood swings of 2 and 3 yr olds…
I’m bracing myself for high school years. ;)
Going out in public with this crew is always fun and exciting.
Micah is usually pantless from leaking out of his previous outfit.
Sienna is off changing her wardrobe with whatever she can find in a store.
and Sophia is usually bopping around smiling and tickling Micah’s toes
making it even EASIER to hold this wiggley 24 pound chunk of love.
Hope you are having a wonderful week!
And to all my fellow mamas out there.. you are amazing! :)

August 12, 2013 at 2:12 amAhhhhh I love reading your posts. I too have an almost 9 month old (number 2), who is now crawling (eekkk also having to pick up potential choking hazards CONSTANTLY). I love that you are honest and upbeat, even about the hard stuff. You make me laugh about your “big forehead”, anonymous is ridiculous!!! Hmmm any chance of IKEA visits in Australia???
