Sleepy Stella

I get such a kick out of how Stella decides to sleep sometimes.

Under the coffee table…Stella 001

Under the blankets… Stella 002Stella 008 

In the back seat of the truck…Stella 003

On her back… Stella 009

She was dead asleep in both of these pictures. And when she sleeps like this is when she snores the loudest. Ha!

Stella 004

Lounging out on the patio. On the comfy patio chair. Under the big umbrella… :)

Stella 005

On a cute blanket…Stella 006

Yes, in the suitcase. I think she missed us… Stella 007

She’s not allowed in our bed, but we made an exception this morning since I was changing the sheets anyways, and she got some good snuggle time in with her daddy...

Kahlua was none too thrilled about this new development…Pets 008

Good Stuff

-It feels so good to have our life back! Last night after I got home from work I made dinner, sat on the couch and read, then cleaned the kitchen and was in bed by 10. Those are huge strides for me, considering I lived in our office from the moment I got home from work until I'd go to bed at 12am, before our wedding.

-Speaking of reading, I'm currently reading "The Help" and I cannot put it down. I'm trying to get through it quickly (which hasn't been too hard, ha!) so I can go see the movie because I've been hearing nothing but good things about it. It feels wonderful to get back to reading again!

-I took five days off of work (three before the wedding and two days after). Upon my return to said workplace I was faced with the fact that my co-worker DID NOT cover for me at. all while I was out. To say I was angry on Wednesday when I got into the office and saw my in-box would be a complete understatement. I've always covered for her when she's been out. It's just what we're supposed to do. So I'll be having words with our boss about this - that's for sure.

-I'm wearing an outfit today that is super comfy, but I feel like a bum. I'm wearing jeans that are kind of ripped at the hem and a top that should probably be tucked in but I just don't wanna!

-This weekend we are staying home. PTL! We have to start going through stuff because we want to have a garage sale next month. Tomorrow night we're going to the drive-in for a double feature. And I have to make some returns/exchanges of our wedding gifts.

-I ordered an Erin Condren life planner and I cannot wait until I get it! It'll be so nice to get our life and bills organized and to get monthly meal plans in order.

-I hope you all have a great weekend and thank you so much for all the kind comments about my wedding post yesterday. Y'all are the best!

Xoxo,
Kaysie
