Confessional Friday and High Five For Friday

Today I'm linking up with two awesome bloggers!  Leslie for Confessional Friday and Lauren for High Five for Friday....both are pretty darn awesome in my book.  And gorgeous!

My confessions:

1.  I confess that I'm so darn flippin' excited about my first ever blogger date!!!  Celeste and I are meeting up for lunch on Sunday with no husbands and no baby.  That's right, we get to have some non-interrupted girl talk!  Eeeep!  Of course, I'll be sharing all about it sometime next week (or the week after :)).

2.  I confess that stink at working out.  I worked out 4 times last week and 0 times this week.  Just couldn't get motivated this week.

3.  I confess that I love Boston more and more everyday.  I can't even imagine how that's possible when I already love him to pieces.  But it is.

4.  I confess that this weekend is going to be strictly an "our family" kinda weekend.  We are going to knock out some things off our summer to-do list.

5.  I confess I absolutely hate it when Jer works late.  He's swamped at work and last night he got home at TEN PM!  And it doesn't look like it's gonna get better anytime soon.

6.  I confess I haven't read the Bible in I don't know how long.  Unacceptable.

7.  I confess that I ordered a few bracelets from Etsy and I can't wait to get them and share them with you.  In.love.with.them.

8.  I confess that I have been terrible with organizing my bagillion photos that I take with my camera and iphone.  Feeling a little overwhelmed.  So if you have any tips, I'd love to hear them.

9.  I confess that yesterday I started buying materials for B's 2nd birthday party invitations!!!  Yup, we are 2 months out, but it takes me a few weeks to get them made and mailed.  Thankfully I already know how I want to make them which tends to be the hardest part for me.

10.  Lastly, I confess that my mom's group at church starts back up later this month.  So ready to get back to worship and getting a couple of hours of "mommy/me" time on Tuesday mornings.

Yay for Friday's!

This is a neat little link up that I've decided to finally do.  I had been seeing it around the blogosphere lately but never participated....until now.

My "High Fives for Friday" are:

1. i love that Boston loves our summer series at our weekly story/sing/play time at the library (post to come later).  


2. can't wait to get started on B's second "new" play table that I got for 2 bucks (the first one I got about 6 months ago and still need to re-do!).  he needs two because we'll be using them for different things.  post will come once i finish them.


3. ring pop!  hadn't had one since a kid, until this week.  blueberry flavor is always a favorite of mine.


4. really trying to loose some poundage off my waistline.  hoping fruit will keep me full during my "sweet tooth" cravings throughout the day and in the evenings (which is my worst craving time).


5. probably the best thing that we did this week was our play date at our local splash pad park with some awesome-gorgeous-sweet mommy friends and their babies.  seriously, i'm so blessed to have these women in my life.  best of all, they are devout Godly women and two of them are in my mom's group at church.  (post to come later)


Happy Friday!

Confessional Friday

I'm beyond uber excited to be writing a "Confessional Friday" post today and linking up for the first time with Leslie at A Blonde Ambition!  I have to admit, I do that weird stalk-ish type of thing with her blog (and occasionally comment), so I'm not that weird.  She's a southern girl, stinkin' adorable and oh so stylish.  I love reading what she has to say.  If you haven't been following her, you should!  Thankful to some of her "style" tips I don't leave my house (most of the time) looking like a mis-matched freak.  I actually have a teensy bit of style.  At least to me, anyway.  :)

Okay, so here she blows.  My confessions....

- I confess that I am hooked on the show Sister Wives.  Kinda obsessed.  Not sure why.  I don't believe in polygamy but i'm so intrigued.  Just like I was with the Toddlers and Tiaras show (pretend I didn't just admit that to the world but now that you know, don't judge).

  

- I confess that I have not been doing even half way good on my "diet."  I've had way too much candy lately.  From welch's fruit bites to Blue Bell banana pudding ice cream to hot tamales to pizza more than once in a week.  But mama is getting back on track (come Monday, ha).  

- I confess that I'm about to go crazy on someone if they don't send me my new U-Verse modem ASAFP aka.....as-soon-as-freakin'-possible.  It's been almost two weeks!  I know they are shipping it via snail mail, but geez people, mama needs to watch her shows!  Like yesterday.  

- I confess that I've been terr-ible with making my meal plans.  Poor starving husband and baby.  But I plan to get back to it starting Monday when I go to the grocery store.

- Speaking of grocery stores.....I confess that I love to grocery shop.  I don't mind it one bit.  It's actually a little peaceful.  Even with a toddler (that has plenty of food/milk/toys to keep him entertained happy).

- I confess that about a month ago, I got pulled over while driving!  Now, I know I'm not the best driver (at all) but this time it wasn't because "I" did something wrong.  He pulled me over because one of my headlights was out (it had JUST gone out that same night).  I was driving home (following Jer) when the cop flipped his lights on.  THEN!!!  He asked to see my driver's license and insurance.  And what do you know!  The insurance card I had was expired!  THEN!!!  He looked at the back of my driver's license and then asked me if I still wear contacts.....and being the honest person that I am I said, "No, I had lasik about 6 years ago."  He said, "well you know ma'am, that's a violation because you're supposed to change it on your driver's license."  Ummm.....no I had no idea.  Never heard of such a thing!  Basically, I had THREE violations that night, 1) headlight out, 2) no current insurance card, and 3) lasik.  Haha.  Well, thankfully he only ticked me for the contacts violation.

But what a lame ticket!  I guess it was the end of the month so he needed to meet his quota.  Nonetheless, I got my license changed a few days ago.  Now I have to deal with the court stuff to get-it-gone!  

- I confess that I've had a slight obsession with Target lately.  From their new home "shops" to their clothing to their jewelry to their.....everything.  I can't get enough.  I even went 3 times in one week (last week).  

- I confess that I've dreamt about blogging recently.  My husband laughs and thinks I'm a crazy woman.  

- I confess that I've been a really reaallllyyy bad friend lately.  I have so many play dates that I need to get to.  I've been so busy and have had to put them off.  Sorry friends!!  Come Monday, I'll be back in action and I wanna see all your pretty faces!!!

- I confess that I haven't been to church in over a MONTH!  Eeekkk.  Disappointed.  Very much so.  

- I confess that I LOVE it when my boytoy wears his converse.  Something about him being a professional but also being able to dress his age....kills me.

- I confess that I bought a super cute navy one piece (my first ever) bathing suit last week from Old Navy!  love it so much.  it was there - right when I walked into the door - waiting to be bought.

- I confess that I have a few bloggy crushes.  :)  

- I confess that I desperately need to work out in preparation for our family beach trip in October.  Times-a-tickin'.  And this girl needs to loose 20 more LB's.  

- I confess that I'm a sucker for buying things for the B-man.  Every.where.I.go.  I don't think I ever leave a store without buying him something.  It's a true sickness.

- I confess that I just bought him his first backpack and I'm so flippin' excited about it and how cute it is!!!  

  

- I confess that I've been on the lookout for cheap/cute/sturdy sunglasses cases.  I constantly have about 4-5 sunglasses just thrown into my purse and they constantly get broken or scratched.  So it was time to invest in some cases for them, err two of them.  Found some last night at wal-mart!  4 buckaroos.  couldn't beat the price.  

- Lastly, I confess that life is good!!!  :)

TGIF!

P.S. - I'll be back on Sunday (which is rare) with a post!
