Date Night and Weekend

Adam and I enjoyed a date night on Saturday night, and it could very well be our last date night for a while.  Matante Paulie and Uncle Mac were sweet enough to volunteer to keep E for us while we enjoyed dinner at Coach T's Diner, a little shopping at Hobby Lobby, and magazine reading and coffees at Books-a-Million. 

I splurged on a slaw dog and sweet potato waffle fries with cinnamon honey butter.  Those things will make you want to slap yo Momma!  They are so darn good and I am craving them as I type!

A date night would not be complete without a visit to Books-A-Million!  Adam and I have done this since we started dating, and I love it!  I pick up all the gossip/decorating mags, and he will pick up all the car/motorcycle/sports mags, we find a comfy seat, and cop-a-squat for atleast an hour.

Sunday, we accomplished A LOT!  Which is such a sigh or relief.  We enjoyed lunch at Cracker Barrel :)  Miss Ella Jae loves to make friends and has to stop every waiter/waitress and family passing by to have a little chat ha!  She also loves the little game with the pegs and really enjoys sitting like a big girl in the boosters they have.  She says " baby sit side you," and we have to buckle her baby right beside her :)  Sweet girl!  I could just eat her up!

Adam spent a lot of time on cleaning all the cars and putting the infant carseats in.  He also cleaned out the garage.  I stopped by Home Depot to pick out some pretty flowers for Spring to go on our porch since I knew I probably wouldn't get around to it once Maeline arrives.  I love pretty flowers on my porch during Spring/Summer.  Color adds so much to a home.  I picked out these pretty Petunias and a few other things.  My Mama came by to help me plant them in some planters.  She loves flowers and can do wonders, I just hope I can keep them alive ha!



We rounded out the weekend at Pizza Joint with Mama and my cousins.  They are such a big help with E and love her to pieces and vice versa!  Yah happy date nights and productive weekends!

Happy Weekend!

We're off to Lathan's 5th birthday party...fingers crossed the rain holds off.

We celebrated Ella Jae's 2nd birthday on Sunday at the park with our closest family and friends.  We had pizza, chips, fruit, cupcakes, and cake for everyone.  The cake was such a work of art.  Ella Jae loved it!  She has such a great time running and playing with her cousins, and enjoyed all of the little Dora touches.  On Monday, her actual birthday, we filled her room with balloons and when we went to wake her, we put them in her crib as well.  Her reaction was priceless!  She also enjoyed cake for breakfast, a birthday lunch with Mama at O'Charlies and an evening of fun at Chuck E Cheese with Mommy, Daddy, Memmy and Poppy.  Now onto some pictures.............

Cannot believe my baby girl is the TWO, and will soon be a BIG SISTER!  Where does the time go?!

6.5 lbs and head full of hair

Today I went for my weekly check at the OB doctor.  I had an exam and sonogram :)  The first thing the sono tech said was "look at that head full of hair!"  I  had to laugh and when I looked up you could see her little hair waving in the fluid.  Ella Jae had a lot of hair, too.  I am just so excited to see what sweet Maeline will look like and I can't help but wonder if she will favor her big sister.  The tech only printed me two sono pictures because at this point she couldn't get any good clear shots because she is head down like she is supposed to be.  Sweet, obedient girl already!  3 weeks or less...

WILW!
