Georgia, Arkansas and everything in between.

It's been a whirlwind of a two weeks! Matt was out of town in Tampa last week for a sales meeting, so my sweet parents came to stay with me Thursday and Friday night, since I'm such a scaredy cat. They drove 3 hours to stay with their 32 year old baby! ;) They also took Molly Caroline to school, which they loved seeing, took her out to lunch downtown at The Scoop, and spoiled her instead of taking her to our babysitter. After I got home from work, we went downtown and Molly Caroline picked out the "cute" fabric that I'm going to use in her big girl room. She also picked out some green shoes, and then my parents treated just the girls to Mom and Dads. :) Such a fun day! Oh and preparing to be out for two days at the start of a week is no joke!


Saturday morning we headed to Arkansas for our cousins wedding. Molly Caroline was a flower girl! The wedding was on a Sunday night. The 13 hour drive there was not bad at all. We stopped every few hours....my Drs orders. Chick fil a and Target were our two stops of choice. Playgrounds and shopping were the best ways to walk and pass the time! 

The wedding was beautiful, the weather was perfect, and Mollly Caroline was trhrilled to be reunited with her cousins! She did great, walked down...and stood by the bride and groom almost the whole time, until she named everyone in her family sitting on the first two rows and came and sat in my lap. She ended up walking back down the aisle too. She also danced the entire reception. We got to spend Saturday night in Missouri with Matt's grandma and then started the dreaded drive home. It was supposed to be 14 hours but took us 20! We got home at 4am Tuesday morning. Molly Caroline  was just over the travel. She wouldn't sleep. My feet were so swollen due to lack of movement. We made one last desperate stop outside of Birmingham at a Walmart after midnight and then forced ourselves to drive the rest of the way. We were sooo thankful to be home!




We've just been playing catch up the rest of this week. Since being back, Molly Caroline only wants to sleep in our bed. So that's a new thing.

We've been picking out scholastic books, playing, and going to Dr appointments. We've been tired! Here's to getting back in our normal routine and getting both Girls rooms finished!
