A few months ago I started seeing Instagram links on twitter. After my nervous breakdown I got an iPhone and now I can join the fun! AND I discovered through Joy’s Hope a weekly carnival over at Life Rearranged where you share the everyday moments of your week through your phone photos.
Fun fun fun!
We visited Nannie (grandmom) and she let someone empty a whole tissue box. He was in pure bliss.
Bundled up for Daddy’s playoff softball game. They lost. I was happy because then there wasn’t a late double header… don’t tell Hot Hubby.
We went to Ridemakerz at Downtown Disney. It was A-Mazing! If you have boys you must check it out. I’ll be doing a post about it next week with an AWESOME coupon!!
Eli was touching head to toe in his toddler bed so it was time to upgrade. Since we are short on space and tall on kiddos, bunk beds were in order. We found beds and mattresses made in the USA (you know I love that!) and the kiddos LOVE them. Now I’m trying to find non-lame-not-overpriced bedding. Suggestions please!!
So in love with this child!! Cyrus can say #1 on command. Totally prepping his “tricks” before his first b-day party. Tiki theme at the beach… in case you wanted to know.
Rain. Which means we got to wear our rain boots. Since that only happens like 4 days a year, it’s a big deal. We splashed all day. Awesome.
Pregnancy craving at the moment. Chocolate chip cookies. I get sick from eating too much every day. I just can’t stop. When that first one touches my lips… (sigh)
Something new for Eli’s Lids. Yep. Think the perfect show-stopping-baby-shower giftie for boys (and tomboys)!!
Rachael says
Love the recap. Missing you all!
Eli's Lids says
Always missing you!! (I was feeling very friend lonely this week, then I met 3 new moms around town… God is good!) Never a Woodall replacement though!!
You should do this too! It’s a recap of the week linky using your camera phone pix (doesn’t have to be instagram). The other blogs I’ve seen on it are super cute!

we went to that car maker place thing too and it was AWESOME! so much fun. (but so easy to drop a lot of coin!)
Eli's Lids says
Amen sister! The added things can add up fast. I think the coupon they gave me is a buy one get one free father’s day type thing so that’s pretty cool. We met the CEO and he is a RAD (faith-filled) guy! Love to know my $$ is going to a solid company!
Kate @ Songs Kate Sang says
Hi! So nice to meet you!! Your kids are so precious! I am looking forward to grabbing a cup of coffee and digging into your blog!
Eli's Lids says
Thanks Kate!! I’m so doing the InstaFriday every week! I have LOVED all the blogs who participated and it is a great way to remember the ‘everyday’ of the week.
Deborah says

So much fun!! I have to add the google thing to my sidebar!!
Kristen says
I have a deep love for chocolate chip cookies. They are one of my all time favorite foods. I wish they were good for me!
Bunk beds ate the best except for making them :0) the kiddos love them.
I just got an iPhone in February and I love it!
Your children are darling and so are your lids :0)
Thanks for stopping by my blog!
Eli's Lids says
So glad you said that about the bunk beds! It was the biggest pain in the arse to put on the sheets. I’m thinking as my preggo belly gets better, the weekly change will transition to every two weeks… I don’t even care if that’s gross.

hopping over from life rearranged. yay for the iphone! isn’t it magical? and don’t even get me started on instagram. i could marry it, i think. adorable kids! and my girls LOVED tissues. why do we even buy them toys?
Eli's Lids says
My mom suggested doing a kleenex box with fabric scraps as the tissue with my first lil one and I’ve never done it. Think I’ll try it this time around!
Thanks for stopping by!
Melissa says
I have got both kids bedding sets at Target. 4 yrs later Easton’s totally has held up. His is a Surfer Monkey theme and Makenlee’s is a very retro polka dot print with bright pinks and browns. Also try Homegoods/TJ Max/Ross or Ikea.
Eli's Lids says
Thanks for the tips Melissa! You are the best deal finder 🙂
I ended up with cute stuff but they don’t go together. It’s killing me but they won’t be sharing a room for much longer so I think I’ll survive.
Kyla @ Funky PolkaDot Giraffe says
Look at you joining the Insta-Friday!! I want to play too – but I don’t have an iPhone 🙁 Come over – I’ll make you some cookies 🙂
Eli's Lids says
You should! It just has to be camera phone shots. Do it!
Are we gonna watch Nie Nie this week?
Jenni Carlisle says
Thanks for the visit and comment love! Digging Eli’s Lids! Your litlles are adorable…love the empty kleenex box…ha, ha!
Eli's Lids says
Thanks! I truly do love our Lids as well… hopefully fedoras and newsboy hats are in our near future!
Mari says
Thanks for stopping by! Made my day to be visited (and commented) by someone new 🙂 Yes, 4 kids are so fun! Playmates galore. Congratulations. I scrolled down a bit and discovered that you love the theatre and dancing too. I haven’t braved it with kids yet, so I’m a little in awe of you. Have a great weekend!
Eli's Lids says
Thanks! We figure if we don’t make a habit of it now, we never will! I’ve had a few suggestions for local kid friendly theaters and I think they will be way more into that! Can’t wait 🙂

Burlington coat factory for bedding
Eli's Lids says
No way! I always love their commercials but I’ve never been to one. Google-ing now…
