yep, it's one of those...

i'm just going to type. so enjoy.

i ate more than jay did on thanksgiving. yes, more than jay. i had THREE, count 'em, THREE plates of food. i couldn't even drink my tea i was so full. who's got time for tea? what i really wanted to do was grab the sweet potato souffle that jill made and sneak into the back with a fork...or just my face. i could take a nap in that mess.   so.dang.good.

really, my heart still gets giddy thinking about jills sweet pot souf. oh my.

gabe loved all of the thanksgiving grub. what a fun kid.

i even ate a normal dinner. jay ate like a tiny sandwich. what? no need in skipping a meal just b/c one was LARGE and obnoxious, right?!

we almost went to see lincoln last week. but then we saw that it's almost 3 hours long. homegirl cannot sit through a movie for that long. unless i'm on my couch in pjs. even then i will most likely sleep. we went to barnes&noble instead and read magazines. we love doing that. so relaxing. except for the random dinging noise that sounds like you're about to miss your flight...know what i mean?

gabe keeps waking up at 4:40 am. imma need that to stop. he is cute though. it's the same routine. i grab a bottle and go get him. we snuggle a minute, he takes a swig and then we look at the pictures being projected on the ceiling from his sound machine. this is my favorite part - i love to look at his face when he looks up...but apparently he wants me to look as well b/c he puts his hand on my face and pushes it towards the ceiling. makes me laugh every.dang.time.

he's been fun with the christmas trees. he just sits on the steps and looks at them. he knows he's not supposed to touch them. sometimes he just can't help himself. but he's good about not pulling on them. just touching the lights.

he may or may not have stuck his finger in the space heater the other day. (my mom is going to die.) we just heard the noise and saw his face. he was fine, therefore, it was hilarious. jay was sitting right there with him. that kid is quick. but no worries, he steers clear of that mess now.

have i blogged about waffle house catering the TA christmas party? how brilliant! they are doing everything!!!! they bring everything (plates, cups, silverware, napkins, food, coffee, juice etc.) we're having the all-star breakfast. yes, all of it. FRESH HOT waffles, grits, hash browns, toast, eggs, bacon, sausage. i mean seriously. BRING IT.

went to a precious, fun, sweet wedding this past weekend. courtney, one of the truest, most genuine, kind, prayerful, faithful, loving, honest, amazing, consistent friends you could EVER ask for got married saturday. the ceremony was BEAUTIFUL. micah carver did a fantastic job. i am getting a copy of what he said. jay did a great job singing and playing guitar during the ceremony and reception! i love weddings.

the reception was super fun. countrys catered. i ate A LOT of bbq onions. i kinda have an addiction. i also took home a gallon of unsweet tea. yes!

cutest idea ever - they had lots of different wine glasses (so cute!) and once you got yours for the night you just kept it and refilled as you liked. i thought that was a fun idea.

also, tons of small mason jars with delicious desserts. clever!

dancing was fun. i am not a great dancer. i just watch people around me and attempt whatever they are doing. who comes up with dance moves? my mind doesn't work like that. i am white, badly white.

my neighbor came by last night. he said for a long time he wasn't sure if i was from this country... uh, what? why?  anybody got an explanation for that?!

he also asked how old jay & i are. ?  that was the first time i had to say 34. how in the world am i 34? thats weird. i don't feel "grown up" enough to be 34.

bad mom move #709559687832917 = running out of formula the night before thanksgiving. perfect. publix was a madhouse. i took gabe with me to get it so jay could nap (he naps after supper but i can't talk b/c i go to bed before gabe sometimes.)  gabe must've known it was a crazy night b/c he joined right in. he threw his mustache paci out of the cart every 5 seconds. then he wanted to stand in the front part of the cart. i think he thinks he's driving. then he wanted to be held. so i am sure i looked stupid pushing a cart and carrying a kid. i went in for $27 worth of formula and came out having spent $70. what? how? oh well.

i have to take cash with me to target, tjmaxx and fresh market. it's the only way i'm coming out without foolish purchases.

ps - gabe shook his head no and wouldn't budge when i asked him if he wanted to go to target last week. maybe i have issues...

gabe is almost 1. ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh.

luke smith is one of my most favorite human beings. i am determined to find him a wife. a godly, fun, faithful, easy-going gal. send me your input. :)  i'm picky...

booyah.
