Has it been a week???
Cy was sick then I was sick. And if your house is like mine, you know the world stops when mommy is ill.
Before all the illnesses hit we had a family Date Night at Farrell’s Ice Cream Parlor. We should have known something was coming when Cy refused to eat ice cream! Our sundae was a hit but Cora Jane thought the birthday songs were too loud…
Summer shoes… check!
Just happened to go to Old Navy on their $1 flip flop sale. I’ve never gotten them before but I couldn’t be happier with the fit. Got 3 for me and 2 pairs for each of the kiddos. I’m thinking the $1 sale will be a new summer tradition!
When Cy’s fever hit, it hit hard. His highest was 104.1! Our happy baby was a grump. We were up most of the night with the lil’ buggar. All my kiddos have REALLY high fevers while teething. Is that normal??
Eli likes his hair long (like Samson) and I keep trying to get that long flippy surfer boy look… but it mostly ends up looking like trailer trash. We were so surprised when he announced he wanted to cut his hair!
Listening to scripture time before bed is rad!
McCafe + cupcake + park = our once a week routine
Storytime at the libray = another weekly routine
I like routines.
Kitchen counter.
If you haven’t seen the new In-N-Out Burger onsies, you need to! Cute overload.
Runny nose, watery eyes, tired and cranky. I think the tired and cranky might be from the fetus. Either way, the green tea has been a flowin’ and the messy house is a growin’.
I’ve mentioned my fetus is lazy and non moving (boy?). At my monthly appointment I become a nervous wreck thinking they won’t find a heartbeat. My mind goes down a slippery slope of thoughts about infant loss. And it makes me cry. Irrational, I know. But I think I’ll start scheduling my appointments for earlier in the day to keep my crazy thoughts at bay.
Happy InstaFriday and join in over at Life Rearranged!
Melissa says
is it a boy? You said boy??
Eli's Lids says
I think it’s a boy because he’s lazy and stubborn. But I have now clue! Dying to know though!!
Kathleen @ Sugar and Spice says
104? That is just not right. So sorry momma.
Eli's Lids says
It’s so strange. But I was much more paranoid when it happened to baby #1. Now I know a tooth will pop the next day… usually more than one if they get a fever. Makes for a rough night!
Melissa says
You must live near us because we go to that library story time too 🙂 I too love routine and I hope you are all feeling better!
Eli's Lids says
The one at the RSM library?? We go on Tuesdays (the 11am one) then to that park for a picnic lunch! If you ever see me (I’m 5’10” fat/preggers, frazzled looking towing 3 kiddos) say hi!
Melissa says
My little man is just about to turn two so we go to the earlier toddler time….we have yet to graduate to preschool story time 😉 We do go to the park though…..I will definitely say hi if we run into each other 🙂

InNOut shirts???!!! I just died.
Eli's Lids says
I can’t even tell you how adorable it is in person! It’s just like the cup… with the bible verse on the snaps (like the bottom of the cups).
Kristin says
Cora Jane looks so grown up in that last picture!
You are such a cool fun mom! I hope to be like you someday. 🙂
Eli's Lids says
She is!! She is starting to embrace her girlyness which makes me so excited and cry at the same time.
YOU WILL BE AN AMAZING MOM!! Can’t wait to see your lil’ meringues! Get on it already 🙂
Betty Palmer says
Kara, Our friend, Sara Hunnel, always tell me when I let my mind run away with what I fear. She tells me ” God does not give us grace for our imagination.” At times this helps me get hold of my emotions and thoughts. And she is right!!!!
Eli's Lids says
SO true. Easier said than done.
Jaime says
Sorry you’ve been yucky over there! And girl, you gave us quite a scare with your twitter post!!!
Eli's Lids says
OMGosh! I didn’t even think about how it could have been taken! Just my monthly exam paranoia.
My sickness is getting better. I’m wondering if it was allergies because my eyes were so watery. I took some zertec and I feel A LOT better today…. but it could just be the 4th day of the cold running it’s course
Olivia says
love the INO onesies!
Eli's Lids says
Perfect shower giftie!! (love ya)
Andrea says
Our baby is lazy and doesnt move too much either…..and he is most definitely a boy!! 🙂
Eli's Lids says
That is so encouraging!
(I have to say I’m so happy you are preggers. I pray for you and your lil’ guy daily… REALLY!! Names yet?)
