Have you ever...

Been SO determined to wear a cute outfit that you would do anything to make sure you could wear it at least one time? Especially if you were in a hurry to get out of the house on time...

Well, I have...and here's what happened!!!

The other night I had open house...I wanted to look cute...of course! So I wore one of my new cute dresses. I really liked my outfit and if you have known me for more than a week...you know the leopard heels were OF COURSE my favorite part of the whole deal!

Here is my outfit...

So I am running around like crazy trying to get of the house...which again if you known me for any period of time, you know the way I show up to anything is on 2 wheels pulling up in a hurry (thanks mom, for passing that down to me!) Anyway, I had my hair and make up ready to go...time to put on the outfit. But wait...I canNOT zip it up! UGH...I tried and tried...I thought I KNOW I can still fit in this and I KNOW I can zip this up by myself!!!!! Finally I took off the dress a noticed the zipper wasn't working! Would not even move!!! I was so upset/running late...but determined to wear this dress...so with some tugging and getting no where but making it worse by pulling that darn zipper right off its track, I had to go to Plan B!!! Which was...

GHETTO I know...but seriously I KNOW everyone has had to do something like this...I'm just the brave one to share my secret!!!!

Oh, and if you see me in this dress...just please say..."Tiff, "cute dress!"...and I will know what you mean. LOL!

Little Lady news...

TWO WORDS...
I have been so blessed to have a pregnancy that I have not got sick...enjoy being pregnant...love to feel her move...having a healthy baby girl growing inside me!!! I have no complaints...I am blessed!

Baby: Her nerve endings are developing this week...she is developing her sense of touch. Her eyelids and eyebrows are now developed. The baby's brain is growing so much still!! She has little taste buds now... I hope she likes green beans with milk...LOL :) She is now the length of a whole roll of Oreo's...that has been eaten by her Daddy. OK...OK...that has been shared between her Daddy and me!!!

Mama: I'm doing great! Just ready to find some bedding fabric that I like! The other day I found some that I fell in love with...BUT I am not willing to pay tons for it!!! So now that pattern is in my head, and of course I haven't found anything else like it! So working on that...ready to paint and get to decorating!

Cravings: Milk...of course!!!! Greens beans...I could eat them cold and out of a can if I could! This week I have wanted fruit...so I have cut up in little bowls, ready to be eaten of: grapes, strawberries, and pineapple. YUMMY! A junk food that I have been wanting is brownies...AND MILK!!!!

Exercise: ...in 107 degree weather...NOT! But believe me the last 3 days at work...I have NOT sat down. Just in the few seconds I have to go potty...which here lately that is a lot too! Can't wait for some cooler weather to come on...so walking will start back up big time!

Daddy: Chris has to be reminded that only girls can have babies...and he is not pregnant and doesn't have to eat for two. Bless his heart...he is cracking me up. A few people here and there have said stuff about how fast I am growing...so "to make me feel better" he grubs down with me! Love him...

Half way there...first 20 weeks I couldn't wait to know what the baby is...now in this next 20 weeks, I can't wait to MEET HER!!!!

Whew....

So the first two days of school are under my belt...and in the afternoons this is what I feel like doing...just closing my eyes and prop my feet up!!!! Though in my last two days I have had to make some adjustments...carry around and standing all day with this extra weight sure does some things on my heels...life is good! :)

My new babies are SO cute, I just love them!

Ready...Set...Go!

Well it's that time again...we are back to school! The summer FLEW by...and now I have new babies! Last year I moved from 3rd to 1st grade...so now that I have a year of 1st under my belt...I am SO excited about the year! It took me FOREVER to get my room set up last year. But now I knew where I wanted my desks...centers...teachers desk...EVERYTHING. So please mark this in the history books...I AM ALL READY TO GO...and have been for over a week!!!!!

In the life of my "wanta-be" BFF...

I love my family!

A couple weeks ago my family went out to celebrate my sweet Daddy and Jason's birthday. PS...Jason is my parent's best friends' son. How cool is that...my parents have seen Jason grow up and our parents are still BEST FRIENDS! Jason was the ring bearer in my parents wedding. My parents have been married for over 25 years...that is a long time to have friends walking through life together. I have been married for almost 4 years and have lost contact with people in my wedding. I think that is so special our parents have that! For the past...20 years I have not looked at them as good family friends, more like my second parents and brothers!

Here is our table...full of all the people I love!

I love this picture...my Daddy and his sister, sweet Aunt Helen...LOVE IT...

Kam and Daniel with our cousin Jayden...

My mom couldn't believe that I ordered ravioli at a steakhouse...I just wasn't in the mood for meat. The ravioli was very yummy though...

Outside Chris, Trey, Chandler, Kam, and Daniel all played a game...I have no clue what it was called...but they all got WAY INTO IT...Any game that comes around...my Mr.Competitive comes out!

And...they still were playing... Finally we took some family pictures...my Daddy and all his kids...we love him!

Big brother Jason and us 3...All the kids....missing one...WE LOVE YOU WES!!!!And little Cadie Bug is not in here, she was ready to go home. :)

Treyman, Daniel, Kam, Jason, Chris, Me, Chandler, Jayden, Cheryl, and sweet Hanna!!

If you look hard enough you can see that Jason is standing on his toes...HILARIOUS!!! Such a fun night with my sweet family...can't wait to have our little one join the list!

Ry-Man's B-Day Party!

Ryder Brooks (my nephew) had his birthday party. It was a lot of fun playing in the water at the sprinkler park.

Ryder cracked me up..."Aunt Sissy take a picture of me wif my Whightning McQueen!" Such a sweet boy...

And then Ry got poopy since he couldn't open his gifts...the party hadn't even started it...LOL

The party started and everyone very quickly got in the water...it was H-O-T!

Since we had such a great day with the dogs swimming, we figured they would love the sprinklers...of course Sassy Sister Callie loved it...

But Mr. Teague did NOT want anything to do with them...

Finally it was time for the yummy cupcakes...
And obviously they were very yummy for our tummies...

Had a quick family picture...Billy, Lee Lee, River, Ryder, and Little Ridge on his way...Then it was time to open gifts...Ryder had been waiting ALL day for this...Such a big boy...he is growing up so fast!

Swim Day

We had our first swimming day with the dogs. It was hilarious to see how they acted around the water...and how they acted when we put them IN THE WATER!

Chris enjoying the rays...First it was Teague's turn...he did not like it AT ALL! This picture cracks me up. We were all talking to him all sweet and making the pool look like fun. So after about 15 minutes of everyone trying to get him in and it not working...Chris decided to force him! You can tell on his face...he hates it!

After Chris getting a BLOODY lip and all scratched up, due to Teague completely fighting him in the pool...he finally got out and calmed down. All he wanted to do is play from the edge of the pool...

Then to our surprise...he would play on the first step!

Sister Callie Rae on the other hand...LOVED THE WATER! Jumped right in...several times...and swam right to the step. SO CUTE!!!

Here is Sister swimming like a big girl...

And when Mr. T was forced to swim...LOL....

Had some good memories today...

Paused...

I have been so excited about now knowing what the baby is...so I have been shopping, shopping, and doing more shopping. But I have been put on "pause" from shopping...at least for THIS WEEK! LOL...
