Memorial Day Weekend
We had a fun Memorial Day weekend!
Friday, Goddard was closed so Brandon stayed home with Hadley while I worked. He brought her up to TVA around lunch and we go to show her off and then have lunch at Market Square!
Saturday my nephew graduated high school in Nashville. I cannot believe he is a graduate and on his was to UT this fall (majoring in Engineering)! Brandon went to a bachelor party Saturday in Gatlinburg while me and the Hadster went to Nashville for graduation and a family cookout to celebrate.
While I was in Nashville, I stopped by the Jones' house and met their little bundle of joy, Clayton! He was SO precious! I am so glad I finally got to meet this little cutie pie.
Monday we had family pictures taken. I've been wanting to get some done since Hadley was born. I'm hoping they turned out good! It was only like 99 degrees outside when we were getting them done, haha! Here's Hadley getting ready for the big photo shoot, she loves chewing on her wash clothes!

Sunday, our friends baby was baptized, and we went to a wonderful luncheon at their house to celebrate. I loved all the little babies that were there!

Once a month mom?
Have any of you run across this site? http://onceamonthmom.com/
"Once A Month Mom helps you fill your freezer by creating monthly menus using seasonal recipes."
I am very tempted to give this a try! They even have gluten free recipes and baby food recipes. I am going to first try the baby food route. They make it so easy with the grocery list and step-by-step instructions to get all the cooking done quick!
Let me know if you have tried this! I will post pictures from Memorial Day weekend soon!

Quotes I love
I found some great quotes I thought I would share with you other mommies out there!
"I'll love you forever, I'll like you for always, as long as I'm living, my baby you'll be." - this is from the book 'Love you Forever' by Robert Munsch. I cry every time I read this book, even more so now that I'm a mom.
"Adam and Eve had many advantages, but the principal one was that they escaped teething."
"A baby will make love stronger, days shorter, nights longer, bankroll smaller, home happier, clothes shabbier, the past forgotten, and the future worth living for."
"People who say they sleep like a baby usually don't have one."
"A baby changes your dinner party conversation from politics to poop."
"It was the tiniest thing I ever decided to put my whole life into."
"I'll love you forever, I'll like you for always, as long as I'm living, my baby you'll be." - this is from the book 'Love you Forever' by Robert Munsch. I cry every time I read this book, even more so now that I'm a mom.

I love The Dinner A'fare.
Have you heard of The Dinner A'fare? If you are a working mom, or don't have time to meal plan, grocery shop, and cook, (or just don't like to cook) read on my friend! It truly has been a blessing since I've gone back to work. It gives me more time to spend with my sweet family + it's delicious!!
"The Dinner A'Fare is a gourmet studio kitchen with meal prep stations complete with recipes, fresh ingredients, spices, and measuring cups and spoons.
We make dinnertime less stressful by providing a more convenient way for you to create home-cooked meals. In just two hours you can make 12 dishes that have either 1-3 or 4-6 servings each.
We pre-slice, dice, and chop everything you'll need! Take the meals home, put them in your freezer, and cook (following provided instructions) the dishes according to your schedule. We provide a menu with a variety of flavors. Each month the available dishes change. Our dishes and monthly combinations are developed with nutrition, high-quality food, and variety in mind."
The menu changes monthly (with about 15+ new dishes a month) and they only take about 15-30 minutes to prepare once you get home. We have really liked each dish we've had and almost always have leftovers (we get the 2-3 serving portion). We like it because we get to try things we normally wouldn't make and the nutritional information is available for each dish. Since I'm gluten free, they make substitutions where they can which is awesome! It will be even better when Hadley starts eating real food....she will get to taste all sorts of yummy things mama doesn't know how to make :)
