And this....add up to equal???



You guessed it!


We are beach bound in 7 days!!!!

Thanks to Kelly's Korner blog, we have found a million new places to eat! I can't wait to try out The Hangout and The Cobalt!

Tomorrow begins my big vacat!

Come on Christmas!

Can you feel it? Christmas is only 120 days away!

YAY!!!!

I was reading some blogs today, passing the time, and came across this one blog that is just Christmas wonderland! This blogger did a blog hop of Christmas decorations and I so enjoyed looking at everyone's ideas, and got a few of my own! And with this unusually cooler South Louisiana weather that we are having that is fabulous, it finally feels like fall, and that means Christmas!

So I have added a countdown under Sophie's info section and put it on here as well!

Christmas Countdown

Have a great day!

They've got the fever people!

Ok, I admit it. Only to you bloggers...some serious baby fever is going on around the Sullivan house!!!



I saw the above graphic while surfing earlier and couldn't help but laugh out loud. That's so something I would think about.

Let's talk this out. I work on the OB floor of my clinic. I see pregnant people all day long. I cry with them, laugh with them, and usually I am one of the first people to know the baby's gender before the family does! (Only because when they come out, I ask as they are calling to tell everyone!) So I get to experience all the joys, its like having a huge family. I also experience the sadness...with joy there comes sadness...and thats never fun. I cry with them, and give them big hugs before they get on the elevator.

Secondly, there are currently 8, count them, 8 prego ladies here at my office. I am surrounded! You can't help but want a baby when all you hear about is baby stuff!

Third, my wonderful husband told me the other night that he wanted a baby! I was like WTH IDTS! (which in my world means what the hell, I don't think so!)I talked him out of it the best I could, but he seems to have it in his mind. Let's face, I got alot to do before having a baby. I just started back to school!!!!

I did let him venture down the baby aisle in Wal-Mart last night in hopes that his fever would break, unfortunately it fueled it. I think I may need to borrow the newborn baby my friend Yolanda just had and keep it a few nights!

The worst thing about all of this, is you have so many people who tell you "you don't need to have a baby." Or my favorite "You can't have a baby right now." Umm...excuse me, Yes I can and if I want to I will! Yes, I am young, but I want to be a young mom, yes Keith and I aren't the richest people in the world, but I know people who make it on alot less. Yes, we have things to do, but why not share our experiences with our kids? I have been to a small number of states and have not seen many of the beautiful wonders and creations God has provided to us, but my husband has. His family loaded up the kids and showed them these things. Having a kid shouldn't hinder your experiences, it should make them better! So that's where I stand on it. Besides, in the long run, God is not gonna let you create that perfect child until he thinks your ready for that perfect child. Everything happens for a reason!

None the less, the fever is in the Sullivan house!

Pray for us!

Have a great day!

This Sunday

Enough said.....

Happy Sunday!

Countdown to the beach: 11 days.

Last Sunday.....

Last Sunday, my favorite little 4 year old in the world came over. We swam, cooked hamburgers and hotdogs, ate cookies, made a trip to Dollar General (because Nannie doesn't have enough swimming toys) and had a blast! Here are some pictures...

















This Sunday (tomorrow), I have alittle something different planned...laying by the pool all day drinking tropical drinks and reading a good book. Might even squeeze in a nap.

Happy Saturday!

This weekend we will travel to Centreville to continue to celebrate Keith's birthday. His mom is making homemade from scratch chicken and dumplins' and Mississippi Mud pie. We will certainly enjoy that!!!!

Keith surely enjoyed his birthday. I so enjoyed throwing his little get together, he loves chatting with Uncle Kenny! I sent Uncle Kenny home with my copy of New Moon, so I know he will enjoy reading that!

Have a great FRIDAY!!

Happy Birthday!

Today I am wishing my sweet husband a big HAPPY BIRTHDAY!!!!! He turns 24 today!

Last night, I took him on a birthday eve dinner at Sammy's where we enjoyed boiled crabs, and all that good stuff! We had a great time visiting, and then took a trip to Wal-Mart! Of course...

Then last night, we got home and I went straight to bed exhausted, Keith who is always full of energy, told me that he was gonna stay up and watch some tv until he got tired...Well he came to bed at 2 AM this morning! When I got up this morning, I walked into the living room and found out that maybe it was MY birthday...he had cleaned the entire house! I asked him what he did all this for, and he explained that he had a piece of choc cake and got a sugar high and him and Sophie started cleaning! I will take that! So we had breakfast together this morning, and celebrated his birthday!

Tonight, we are having dinner at our house. My Aunt Lou has graciously provided crawfish jouliee (spelling??) so we will have that, green beans bundles, salad, bread, and of course cake and ice cream. YUM! Will post pictures of Keith's big day tomorrow I hope!

Have a great day!

Happy birthday honey! I am so blessed to have you as a husband and I love you so much

Where in the World

Wow. It feels good to be back on here. I took an unexpected blog hiatus. Not by choice, but clearly by lack of TIME!!! I haven't even checked my email and answered emails yet! So I have about a week to cover, not everyday but some of my fav's. And even more important, Indigo pulled out ALL the stops for the GEAUX INDIGEUAX party last night!! Just wait til you see the pictures from that that I managed to take!

Just in case you forgot the STAR of our household...here she is! I literally believe she becomes more spoiled each day. Is that even possible?



Last Friday, I took off work early and headed to Alabama to see a dear friend of mine, Autumn. She needed a girls weekend, I needed a girls weekend, and her parents live at the beach...enough said!

Here are some pictures from that weekend.



This is literally the tallest bridge I have even been on.

Ok so now to my weekend, Friday night was GEAUX INDIGEAUX! And boy did we GEAUX! We had 4 kegs, 2 daquari machines, catered food that included jambalaya, boudin balls, shrimp and crawfish quesodillas, and alot more! Oh and the DJ...and did I mention a SPACE WALK...Yeah, I live in THE coolest place EVER


Dance off... Winner got a Visa gift card


Swim off..I advised not diving into the shallow end of the pool but thankfully no one was hurt.


Kegs...We are starting our own support group here.


THE SPACEWALK


Best Tiger Growl contest

Unfortunately, my batteries died before we got to the coolest part of the whole night...beer pong...My husband and I say this without using slang...KICKED A**!!! By the end of the night, he was beer pong champ along with Richard, a fellow electrical guy who now comes to Keith for everything! And I was no longer Renee', I was "this is Keith's wife" or "Aren't you Keith's wife?"...Yeah I'm THAT wife now...that's ok though, I enjoy being Keith's wife!

We had a blast, drank and ate too much, and poor Keith got up to go to work this morning! Bless him! I went and got my hair done, spent some time in McComb, and then headed back home. Not before stopping at Debec's though and getting a new flag. I will take pictures of it tomorrow and post!

Have a GREAT NIGHT!
