Happy Insta-Friday!

Holla! It's Friday! and that means its time to link up with the lovelies at Life ReArranged for

This week is a MESS of pictures

I've got pics of the kiddos, pics of things I've found online for friends & family, not so nice things, and very very funny things, so sit back and just look at the pics.

Everyone knows that is the most fun- looking at every one's life!

 

Grab some coffee, diet coke, or hey its Friday, grab a drink!

Take a peek into my life this week!

 

 

Apparently this week was a big week for me online :)

I was into Pinterest a lot as well. Spent a lot of time there and found things that made me think of family and friends. Some of these pins have not such great language so excuse that- but they immediately made me take a screen shot and text it to a friend.

{you know who you are }

 

 

 

Some days, I really crack myself up Phwaa!!

 

On Wednesday or Thursday I got an email from The Chirping Moms, that I had won their giveaway and I won this!

Not very many pictures this week. Just a few.

 Found out last week I was pregnant, then two days later found out the pregnancy wasnt viable. :(

 So we were low key around here.

{I'm doing ok}

At the begining of the week there was BIG talk

of Tropical Storm/Hurrican Debby coming toward Louisiana.

 So we broke out Ben Henry's "Chance of Rain? NEVER" LSU t-shirt.

And wouldnt you know it the storm stayed away. Sorry Florida ;)

We did get a little bit of rain here & there so Eli and I had some game time.He beat me- Candy Land & Chutes&Ladders!

He loved every second of it!

Finished & mailed off my Craftaholics Annoymous Handmade Gift Exchange Gift.

Totally forgot to take pictures of it.

This picture was take with my phone on the front seat of my Tahoe in the post office parking lot

Phwaaa!

I am going to make myself one of these "I love you because" sign and I hope she likes the scarf. I think its precious!

Thursday I REALLY needed a pick me up and look what arrived!

My knock off bubble neckace from GroopDealz!

Yay! I wore it and got sooo many compliments!

{Glad I got the coral too}

Happy Friday Y'all!

I Thought You Should Know- Pink vs Blue is really no contest

Today I am linking up with Jeannett at liferearranged.com

I usually link up to her

but today is a little different.

 A few bloggers are giving us all of little insight to

What don't the baby books tell us?

Here's a little back story

I have two boys. Almost 5 and 2 years old.

 I prayed for years to have a family and to be able to become a Mommy.

I suffered with infertility for 18 months and has two miscarriages along the way.

I love my two boys and WOULDN'T CHANGE A THING.

So what didn't the baby book tell me?

How about that as soon as Eli, my first was born, that people, related or not, would ask,

 "So, y'all going to try and have a girl.?"

Uhmm I'm sorry can you please let me enjoy my HEALTHY child. 

I did not care if my child was a boy or a girl as long as my child was healthy.

Fast forward to Eli's 1st birthday party- "So when are y'all going to try for the girl."

Again, I'm sorry I didn't know that giving birth to one sex or another gave you any rights to my reproductive going ons.!

When Eli turned two I announced I was pregnant for my 2nd child.

This time the pregnancy came quickly and without lots of issue.

Thank goodness but the questions did not.

"So, do you want a girl?" "What are your girl names?"

 "Are you going to be disappointed with a boy?"

Really! Disappointed with MY HEALTHY CHILD?!?!

I think not. Ben Henry came to us and I couldn't be happier.

I love my two boys and I wouldn't change or trade either of them for a girl.

Sure a little pink wouldn't hurt but I can put on a pink shirt whenever I want.

I have a niece and I have friends who have girls as well too!

So let's review:

{Baby books don't tell you:}

* that pregnancy makes OTHERS open their mouths and say things they should not

* that your baby will be perfect for you NO MATTER WHAT the sex of the child.

* that when a baby cries at 3 am it doesn't matter what color blanket its wrapped in

pink or blue- you are still sleep deprived!

* that when you have a sink full of bottles to be washed it doesn't matter if they are blue or pink- you still have a toddler pulling at your leg and only two hands!

*that a screaming baby no matter a sock hat or a headband is still a crying baby.

*that formula still smells horrible, doesnt matter if the baby is a girl or a boy.

*that pink vs blue is really no contest yours always wins out!

* that all babies don't have clean water go here
