I love this day so freakin’ much.

  • Woke up warm & toasty with sunlight pouring in.
  • Baked biscuits & gravy with the boys.
  • YoBaby is a YO-HELLZ-YEAH according to Harrison.
  • The house is fabulously clean thanks to Nate taking Harry out to do boy things, like Home Depot & farting, while I stayed home & tackled the house in an hour.
  • DSC 0003 682x1024 I love this day so freakin much.I curled my hair & put on my Frye boots.  Nate called me a sex kitten.

(Steppin’ Out Saturday: jeans from Old Navy, tshirt from Magnolia Bakery in NYC, sweater from Limited.  Tummy pudge?  Harry.  Awkward stance & pained smile?  all mine.)

  • Harry & I went out on a “date” to give Nate some quiet time.
    • I sipped on a Pumpkin Spice Latte; the boy had some organic apple juice.
    • We also got some Christmas shopping done.
    • We sang Cee Lo in the car.  (Okay, I sang.  Harrison’s ears bled.)
  • Except Nate.  I’m stumped with him.  What are you getting the men in your life?
  • Grilled ham & cheese for lunch.  With colby jack & sliced ham.
  • We played out in the backyard.  Tuck zoomed circles around us while Harrison got deliciously boy-dirty.

  • Giggles & sunshine.  Camera snaps & dog barks & the smell of earth.

  • I baked cupcakes for Mrs. Lusher’s birthday.  But sadly discovered that someone, not me, had already dipped into the Rainbow Chip icing.
  • Harrison melts my heart every time I watch him lay down beside Tuck & put his head on her belly.  Watching their friendship grow is one of my favorite parenting moments.
  • Homemade meat loaf & mac n’ cheese with a side of peas.
  • Chocolate chip diapers.

  • His eyes, heavy with sleep.  & me knowing that our days of nighttime bottles are ending, so I soak it in.
  • & now ending my day with a cup of tea on the couch with Nate.  The house is warm & inviting, ready for the week ahead.
  • I am content.

    Awww, this made me miss having a backyard. Glad you had a good day!

  2. Days like that are the best. They help make up for the days where we’re frazzled and bogged down.

  3. Sarah says:

    What a fantastic day! Love the chocolate chip diaper!

  7. Gina says:

    It’s always nice to end the weekend on a great note – makes you feel like the week ahead won’t be so bad!!!

  8. Is that a Monkey Snuggles? Love it!

    The day sounds perfect and you look great in those jeans.

  9. Sue Robinson says:

    that day sounds perfect

    Finally, right? You deserve it! : )

  11. Hillary says:

    …so where are the boots from?? Me likey!

  12. Krista says:

    This sounds like an extremely full day but definitely a fabulous one.

    I’m the difficult one to shop for. I’m getting DH a new desktop computer and an electric razor and pajama pants for Christmas. He’s probably getting me a new lap top and desk for my dining room so I’ll quit stealing his netbook and blogging on the sofa. LOL

  13. Kim says:

    Sounds like a great day. omg, his little leg pudgies are sooooo precious!

  14. Wynnsmomma says:

    Sounds wonderful – love the box fort in the backyard. We had a box tunnel in our living room until it colapsed from overuse. To answer the Christmas gift for hubby question – I had some prof pics of Wynn and me taken which I am having framed for his office. The hubby doesn’t know about them :)

  15. kim says:

    you are rockin’ those jeans! And I love how you credit Harry. I’m totally stealing that from you. (double chin compliments of Violet. Cottege cheese thighs thanks to cookie dough) That diaper is too damn cute! I LOVE that your posts are full of sunshine and smiles these days, Blair. Way to fight.

  16. That is a PERFECT day!
    Love that diaper. Ours are all boring solid colors or polka dots. Who doesn’t love a diaper that incorporates chocolate?!? Sawyer must have one, and since he’s outgrown his small Blueberry diapers and I’m going to be selling them, it might just be possible! YAY!

  17. B says:

    Chocolate chip diaper = awesomesauce.

    And I gave D a baby for Christmas last year. That’s it for just about ever.

  18. Samantha says:

    That sounds wonderful! I too, am sad at the thought of nighttime bottles ending. :(

    And I LOVE me some rainbow chip frosting!!!!!!!!

  19. Amy S. says:

    So cute!!!! What an adorable fun day!

    I love Cee lo too – was it the “F**k You” Song?! That is so catchy – I try to sing the “Forget You” version for our daughter but seeing as she’s only 7 months old I figure if the real lyrics slip out, it’s okay! ;)

  20. Kimberly says:

    Those days? Are the best. The last line “I am content” is the best feeling ever at the end of the day. I hope this charges a positive attitude for the week!

  21. Jenny says:

    That sounds wonderful!
    Those are just the best days….

  22. Jess says:

    Perfect. So happy for you! Love those boots, too. Might have to add them to my Christmas list now…

  23. Jen says:

    Looking sassy Mama! B and I sing in the van on the way to town…I’m sure people drive by me wondering who the hell I’m talking to. DH and I are giving each other a new computer for Christmas..H2B readers – any suggestions??

  24. I don’t know if I died of cuteness from the hair or the COOKIE cloth diaper (zomg) or the fact that you ate peppermint ice cream.

    I have no ideas for Sam for Christmas. Except he wants a Star Trek game. Or Star Wars. And the thing is, if I can’t remember which, there’s a 50/50 shot of it being a very sad Christmas for both of us.

  25. bonzer-christina says:

    I have to laugh at your I love NY shirt. Only someone that doesn’t live here could proclaim such a thing. LOL

  26. That sounds like THE perfect day.

    I got the hubs a video game, some sports memorabilia, and boxers :)

  27. This sounds amazing, and lovely, and warm and fuzzy. So happy you are happy my friend!

  28. Cat says:

    Love the choc-chip-diaper! Way to give cloth diapers a try! We LOVE our cloth diapers!!! :) Carry on girl, carry on!

  29. Love these pics, especially the swinging feet! Hope y’all had a wonderful Thanksgiving!!

  30. p.s. I heart that t-shirt. :)
