Today Was Not Wedneday

Today? Yeah about that. It wasn't Wednesday. 

It was Tuesday. 

Why is this important? Because I posted my So What Wednesday post today. That's right. On Tuesday. Because today? Was actually Tuesday.

Oh yes, that gave me a good laugh.

Today our former nanny, Nanny M, come to play with Baby Parker so that I could go get a pedicure run some errands. After I got out of the salon, feeling great about my day so far, one of my most devoted followers (hi Julie!) texted me to tell me it was Wednesday. 

Well, duh, I mean, I know that. So why was she texting me this?

Oh, because she had been to the blog. And she had noticed that I posted... So What Wednesday? Today? On Tuesday? Oops! Then, I laughed until I almost cried. But not only because I posted a post on the wrong day. No, I laughed until I almost cried because we caught up on some other stuff and that's usually something I do when Julie and I text... 

Anyway, back to today. Which was Tuesday.

Well, I've been very good lately about posting and keeping up with my blog (yay for making and meeting a personal goal!) and one of my keys to success is writing several posts when I can and scheduling them in Blogger. 

Well that works well for me except for when I accidentally schedule Tuesday's post for Wednesday and Wednesday's post for Tuesday. Now under normal circumstances, not even my most devoted followers would not notice this. Most of my posts are not exactly day-specific, right?

But So What Wednesday? That is a post for Wednesday's. That's pretty obvious. 

So yes I did that. I posted a post devoted to saying So What Wednesday. On Tuesday. So What? Ah well, we all got a good laugh. And surely no one so more than me. Oh my life...

And I must also say thank you to Stephanie and my mom for also letting me know this morning (moments after Julie did) that today was Tuesday. Thank you for having my back!

Happy Tuesday! By the way, tomorrow? Is Wednesday?

So What Wednesday

Today I am linking up with Shannon over at Life After I Dew to say SO WHAT Wednesday! 

This week I'm saying:

So What... If every lamp in our house is set to turn off and on with a timer? Our house is on the market so it needs to be lit up during the day and the last thing I want to do when we finally get ready to leave the house is run around and turn all the lamps on.

So What... If Honey hates the above mentioned lamp timers? He's not the one who would have to run around turning on said timers in a rush to get out the door. Right? But I am sorry that the lights randomly turn off at night when we're watching TV. Such is life with a house on the market! (See Also: Never Sell Your House.)

So What... If I've got Parker Bear and myself 80% packed for our upcoming trip to the beach? No more staying up totally stressed out the night before a trip! (Ok last time was an exception due to circumstances beyond my control BUT if such circumstances come up again, this mama's prepared!) 

So What... If I am certain I appear like a crotchety-hermit-grouch to anyone and everyone who appears at our front door? The original sign I had taped over the doorbell did not deter anyone from knocking on our door to their little hearts content while I rush around trying to quiet the dog because noooo one ever knocks causing the dog to bark when Parker is awake. No. They specifically wait until he is asleep and come bee-boping up to our front door and bang knock so that my wonderful guard dog Cash barks his head off to deter them. Sheesh! Hopefully my new professionally made sign will keep knocking, door bell ringing, and even just visitors to a minimum when Parker is asleep.

So What... If Parker and I made our FIRST EVER car trip for more than 2 hours alone together? We made a 4 hour drive (with one stop) together and we both did great! Cash was along for the ride too and as a seasoned back seat traveler I think he did a great job showing Parker Bear the ropes.

So What... If I haven't posted Parker's first birthday post yet? My sister-in-law took so many amazing pictures I have to select my favorites to post. That's hard to do! I hope to get that post up soon!

So What... If my little blog has a home grown Blogger template? I am so excited about my upcoming makeover! My little bitty blog is going to look so grown up!

Hooray for Wednesday! I hope you are having a great week! Are you saying SO WHAT to anything today?!

Oh Hi There June

Wow, it's June already. 

That can only mean two things... 

One, we should start hearing Christmas music at the mall any minute now. Right?

And Two, this will start what might be the busiest month of our lives! Seriously!

When this month comes to a close, all of our belongings will be packed up and loaded onto a moving truck and on their way to Kansas. And between now and moving day, our family is going to be busy to say the least! 

Now, I don't want to give too much away. Our super fun but very busy month will all be documented here on the blog, of course so please stay tuned for details.

As much as we'd like to savor our last four weeks in the beautiful, rolling hills of Tennessee, enjoying the place we've called home for the last two years, we are going to spend the majority of what little time we will be at home packing... and unpacking... and packing... and unpacking.

It will be exciting for us to say the very least!

So, Hello June! Hello to our last month as Tennessee residents. Hello to my first Army move. Hello to Kansas. 

Hello June. And please, take your time!

Take all the time you need.

Sunday Picture Dump

A few of my favorite recent pictures and a few outtakes from our Memorial Day Week photos. 

Happy Sunday!!

Love these two sweet boys!

From a recent photo shoot with Mommy:

Outtakes from Memorial Day Weekend:

And his is how 99.8% of our pictures turn out. So as long as we take, oh say, 100 pictures then we can usually get a good one! 

But I love these pictures too... real life. Love my little family!

Memorial Day Week at the Lake

Memorial Day Weekend turned into Memorial Day WEEK at the lake!

Honey, Parker Bear, Cash and I headed down to Honey's family's lake house on Friday morning afternoon. We had to get the house "show-ready" hoping for some showings over the holiday weekend and that caused us to run a bit late getting out of the door.

When we were planning this trip, we realized that it worked for us to stay until Tuesday because Honey had a work trip near the lake house. No sense driving home just to turn around and come right back, right? So he planned to stay until Tuesday afternoon.

And then we realized that it didn't make sense for Parker, Cash and I to go home just to be alone, right? So we decided to stay until Thursday morning.

We enjoyed Memorial Day Weekend with Parker's Aunt T and Uncle Rush and cousins Olivia, Ella Grace and Baby Shipp. After they left on Monday and Honey left on Tuesday, Honey's parents, GiGi and Snoopy kept Parker, Cash and I company until we left Thursday afternoon.

We had a great time boating, swimming, grilling out, sunning, fishing, and just enjoying the weather and time together. 

We'll be back to the lake house for July Fourth weekend and although it feels like a long ways away, I know it will be here before we know it! 

Here is our Memorial Day Week in pictures:

I hope you had a fabulous Memorial Day weekend, or week, as well!
