Friday Favorites

Today I'm doing my first link up with some of my favorite blogs for my Friday Favorites!


One
I can't believe that it's already the last Friday in August! I'm crazy excited for some high school football to start tonight. Watching my brother play any sport is one of my favorites so I'm hoping he will get some playing time with the varsity team this year. We love our #23!

Our refrigerator is covered with artwork that Beckett has done at daycare. Recently he did a lion with his footprint and it was beyond adorable and definitely one of my favorites! These pieces will be so fun to look back on as he gets older.

Three
I'm usually the type of person who likes to keep things electronic. At work I hate having any type of paper laying on my desk so any time I can do something electronically that's how I work best. However, keeping up with a calendar is one thing that I do NOT like to do electronically. I've tried it and it's just not for me. Insert this Emily Ley Simplified Planner. It is my very favorite planner that I've ever owned and I use it every single day! I used to always purchase a cheap planner from Target and use it for a week or two and then it would disappear into the bottom of my purse never to be used again. The gold foil pineapple print is my FAVORITE and the layout of the pages in the academic version are near perfect for how I use it daily at work.

Four
This fall-like weather that we've been having in the evenings this week is my favorite. I've actually managed to take Beckett and Wrigley on walks around the neighborhood a couple of times. Taking the dog with us probably wasn't the best idea because she almost pulled the stroller over about 3 dozen times but, you live and you learn and I probably won't try that ever again.

Five
Watching Beckett learn and grow is my favorite. He has the best personality and he keeps us laughing all the time. As much as I don't want him to grow up, it really is so fun to see him learn new things. He is picking up new words frequently and is trying to do whatever we do all the time. Anytime we are cleaning, he has to be right under our feet "helping". We had to get him his own broom and break the Swiffer down to his size because he was constantly getting into the pantry to get the big ones out. He's such a good little helper!

That's it for my Friday Favorites! I hope you have a great weekend. We're supposed to have nice weather here and it's my husband's last full weekend off for the next few weeks so we're going to enjoy it to it's max!

Thanks for reading about This Lovely Lewis Life.

Lincoln - 1 Year

It's hard to believe that our precious baby boy is 1. He still seems like such a baby to us, so much smaller than B was at this age (unless our memories have completely failed us). The day he was born was perfection. It will always be one of my most favorite days ever.  We had very few visitors, at our request (of course big brother had to be there!) and were able to enjoy the full day together since the scheduled c section was early in the morning. It was the sweetest day and I'll never forget how special his birthday was or how happy I felt to have another sweet baby boy to love. The first year went a little differently than B's first year. We didn't co-sleep after 1 month, we only made it to 10 months breastfeeding because of the 3rd pregnancy/miscarriage (which is still a major accomplishment but B went 15 months so of course I had guilt over that), we had a TIME trying to get him to sleep at night. Weight: 21.4 lbs, Length: 29.5" [caption id="attachment_4...

Baby #2 - Sharing the news

After trying for baby #2 for several months, we were thrilled to find out in October that we'd be welcoming a new baby in 2016! Since we knew exactly how far along I was this time (we had no clue with Beckett, I was about 7 weeks along and had no clue until my doctor had me take a test at his office before prescribing me fertility drugs) we knew we'd wait a few weeks before we shared the news. We decided that since I'd be 11 weeks on Thanksgiving we'd share the news with our families at our dinners. We had the first one on Wednesday evening and it was such a relief to finally start sharing the news. After dinner we went over to my mom's house to share the news with them since our dinner with them wouldn't be until the next evening. I'd made a cute craft with Beckett to make it a little more special for them. [caption id="attachment_512" align="alignnone" width="2787"] The boxes lifted up and under them it said (1) I'm going...

Lincoln Asher - 11 Months

I just can't say enough how sweet this baby is! However, he sure does give us a run for our money sometimes. He is into EVERYTHING these days. Our stacked stone fireplace = his favorite spot to mess around (inside the fireplace!) by getting the rocks out. You should see the grin on his face when he gets a rock and knows he's not supposed to have it. He will hike his little leg up like he's going to try to crawl on it and when we tell him no he will grin and start shaking his head no. He is rotten to the core. Sometimes I don't think I can handle another one after him. He wears us OUT!! haha Weight: 22lbs He's a professional crawler now. I love hearing his little hands smacking across the floor. He loves to eat. He will eat and eat and eat with no end in sight. He'll tear everything off the table in a restaurant in order to get to the bread. :-D He loves rolls, biscuits, bananas, and Popsicles, in addition to his baby food and formula. He's not a fan of...
