Happy Happy Happy!

Heather and I found this little 'gem' at Parsons during our Black Friday shopping.  The amount of Duck Dynasty merch available is seriously out of control but this is the icing on the cake! Don't get me wrong, I love the show and the family, and I applaud them and their marketing team.  I would defiantly have my son sporting this bib (except for the $30.00 price tag was a little bit of a turn off)

24 Week Bump-Date

Big day on the calendar this year! 24 Weeks Pregnant, Thanksgiving Buffet at Chateau Elan, Mom's 60th Birthday and Hanukkah! Can this be a more eventful day? Well, in our case yes.... We found Dixie chewing on a very old and very expired piece of Nicorette gum. Where did she get it you might ask? why, in a old purse in the bottom of our closet of course!  We immediately called the ER Vet who forwarded us to animal poison control.  We were instructed to induce vomiting by giving Hydrogen Peroxide. It worked immediatly however no gum was seen in the vomit.  We were then told to take her to the ER vet for blood work to check for a toxic sweetener "xylatol" thankfully puppy's blood came back normal and we were sent home.  It was a big scare for us...Never a dull moment! I've also started to feel Mr. Young's movements more frequently this week, I can breathe a little easier when I know he's moving.

Honoring our Angel

November 18th marked the one year Angel-versary for our daughter, Madison.  To honor our angel we invited family and friends to our home for dinner and to release lanterns.  I was overwhelmed with emotion as we watched our lantern drift up into the heavens, it was a beautiful tribute.  Guests received candles to take home to light through the night, it was so heart warming to know that the candles were lit in our family and friends homes to remember Madison and to keep her spirit alive.  

Puppy Party!

Out Little pup turned 1 years old and we couldn't resist but to spoil her!  Happy 1st Birthday Dixie

20 Week Update

I cannot begin to explain how fast the time has FLOWN during my second pregnancy.  Between working, cooking, cleaning, laundry, caring for the hubby and a puppy and daily shots there is little time for fun.... Even tough it's hard not to have a good time in the Young house! I am swooning over the tiny kicks that I am starting to feel on a daily basis.  I've been anxious to feel them and now that they are starting it brings a whole new aspect to things. 

Fall Festivities and FOOD!

My new fav PSL... Can you believe this year McDonalds jumped on the PSL bandwagon?!? It's 1/2 the price, and has a wonderful cinnamon pumpkin flavor... not to mention the drive-thru line is so much shorter in the morning.  I've splurged and had a whopping 3 this year, due to being pregnant and all. We celebrated Mike's 34th Birthday by having pizza, wings and watching Falcons football Couldn't miss the Norcross Arts Festival,in my GA hometown of Norcross   I had my 1st Fried Oreo...
