I started back to work and had an eastern sales meeting all week long in Myrtle Beach - what a way to start back after maternity leave! Luckily, my mother-in-law kept Mills all day long, and then I got to *sneakily* stay with them at the condo at night. Mills LOVED playing with his Lulu during the days, and even though I missed him so much, he was in good hands! :) All during the day I got picture texts from them that said cute things like "Hey mom, just thinking about you" and "Good luck today, mom. I love you." It was sooo stinkin' sweet (and I was soooo impressed with my MIL's newfound tech-savy skills)! :) On Monday, Jennifer and Gray came down to spend the night and the cousins got to play (be prepared for a picture overload).
I LOVE this one:
"Simon says..."
"Now let's have a dance party!"
Party animals!
"Now show me your best dance move!"
Haha, i just love them!
Gray says, "Man, Mills...this life we live in the spotlight is exhausting!!!"
I think they're gonna be best buds!
On Wednesday, Mills celebrated his first St. Patrick's Day! This little onesie was the very first thing I bought when I found out I was pregnant, haha! I was in Target during my lunch break, and it was well after St. Patty's Day last year so this little thing was on clearance for like $1.99. I didn't know what I was having yet, so I figured this was pretty gender-neutral (we could have added a green bow for a girl, ha!), and I was just dying to buy something. :) But I couldn't have imagined then just how cute this little guy would be in it!
He even sent a text picture to his girlfriend, Callahan, to wish her a happy st. patty's day - very hi-tech, this kid!

Lulu and Mills - so festive!
Pappy drove down Thursday night to visit with the little guy, too!
Love my Pappy!
Well I made it through the first week back, whew! Thanks for all of the comments, facebook posts/messages, texts, and calls of encouragement. Mills and I were glad to get home because we missed sweet Daddy (and Harley!) so very much! Mommy rewarded herself for making it through the first week with a little stop at Anthropologie on the way home (don't even get me started on how Myrtle Beach has one and Charleston does not - what the heck!). :)
I promise that I'll be back to regular-scheduled blogging now - there's so much to catch up on!
Happy Weekend, Friends!!!
Sweet cousins! Those two are going to be trouble - I can see it! Dance parties already?! They aren't even 1! :) Miss you guys!
ReplyDeleteSo glad you made it through that first week back at work! I'm dreading it already and Benton's not even born yet - haha! Mills is absolutely precious...and so is his little cousin...I agree with Kath, they are going to be trouble! :)
