Life Laid Bear

In the wind

This week has been a little hectic, busy, and one of the best I have had in a long time. We are slowly but surely making some progress on the house, and in turn my life is feeling a little less cluttered and my winter funk is retreating (thank goodness for small miracles). We have been getting out of the house a little more, taking walks (ice cream might have been involved), and lots of cleaning and planning are happening. It feels so good to be in this place. Good things are happening!

We are taking the weekend to head to Orlando and spend some quality time with some really good people. I have got a good attitude, Till has her doggles, the hubs is happy and Luke has his head in the clouds.  Mega Con and Disney, here we come! 

Have a relaxing weekend, folks!

currently I am...

 

Savoring every free weekend that I have with these three. Sleeping in, eating breakfast in bed, and being silly all day. 

Loving this blog. She has such a way with words.  

Spending way too much time reading. 3/4 of the way done with this one. 

Craving all things chocolate and caramel. I will not cave. 

Constantly replaying this song. John Legend, your voice is perfection. 

Scouring town for a perfect Valentine's dress. The beau is planning some surprise. I love surprises! 

Finishing January Project Life. 

Looking forward to an Easter beach getaway with the whole family. 

Obsessed with this dress, these boots, and these sandals in every color. 

Drinking coffee with whipped cream on top. It's such a treat!

Wearing spring colored nail polish. 

 

5 and 2

This past weekend we threw our little ones a birthday party. Tillbear turned 5 and lukebear turned 2. We have done this for them for the past two years, and it has been such a cute tradition. It is always a wonderful day filled with so much laughter and friends. Human and pups alike. 

The pups have their own table. It is the one time every year that they can eat right off of the table and we think it is the funniest thing. It is a whole area devoted just to their food. We made lots of healthy treats for their friends to snack on. 

  All of the pups took full advantage of the puppy table. Till decided she would post up there the rest of the party. Just so no one else could get food without hearing a tiny growl from above. She is ridiculously adorable and equal parts selfish. We did not teach her to share well. 

It was only right that we made some peanut butter bear treats for the party. They were so easy and such a hit. After all of the running around and snacking, we sang happy birthday and had cake, Puppy Paws, and gift time. It was truly the sweetest day spent with our closest friends and family. 

Just incase you didn't get enough cuteness here are a couple of the party guests. 

 

 

Sundays are for the dogs

Seriously, Sundays are my favorite. You may also see me saying that about Saturdays, but really Sundays take the cake. They are the days that we spend a little bit longer getting out of bed. That day that we linger a little bit longer getting out of the shower. We spend a little more time reading, and drinking coffee. The pups love these days. We love these days. 

So today, we are doing a whole lot of nothing except spending time snuggled with the pups taking cat naps or in our case dog naps (but you get the point right)

* In other news, I am starting to get back to business as usual in my blogging world. We will officially have a working office this coming weekend. I couldn't be happier. We also have a wedding this Friday that we have been looking forward to since July. I talked about it here and here. There will be some minor changes around here in the next coming weeks. Please excuse the mess while I am updating. 

Let's talk weather

 

 

I can't say that the weather is ideal during this time of year, but it is definitely feeling like it may cool down soon. Living in Florida has its perks. The sun is great, the beaches are close, and there is no need for heavy coats taking up room in your closet. But it is also unbearable for about two months of the year. This month has proved to be one of them. The evenings and nights are finally starting to cool down some. And these guys are loving the nice break in the heat and so are we. The windows have been and the pups heads have been out of the windows as we drive. I couldn't resist the opportunity to catch them in action.

Happy Monday for those of you getting back into the work week!

Puppy love

How can you not love these faces? We are spending a lot of time loving on these guys lately. It has been so great. Yay for puppy love. 

1. A very cute Lukebear in a t-shirt. 

2. Baxterboy and Luke playing. Well Lukas playing with Baxter. Baxter didn't want anything to do with him. 

3. This little girl laying in my lap on a car ride. With a very wrinkly dress. 

4. Our little one hunting socks in the bathroom. 

5. They secretly love each other. 

sick baby girl

This weekend we have a sick baby girl. Tilly just happens to be the world's cutest sick puppy. When she is feeling bad she really just wants to jump in mommies lap, cuddle up on something soft, and sleep the day away. Of course, I don't mind staying a little longer in bed to comfort her. Especially with all the rain we have had here lately. I feel like we are the Seattle of the south.

Today she is doing so much better than yesterday night, but still very sleepy. I don't blame her, this rain would make anyone want a nice long nap. 

So today involved lots of cleaning and BBC shows. It doesn't get much better than that for a Saturday. 

happenings..

This little cutie makes my day bright, each and everyday. 
On another note, my brother just happens to be this fantastic basketball player. He was ranked today, don’t know what that means but I hear it’s good.
