Its a pillow, its a pet..

LOL, ok I know those commericals annoy everyone!! But, Miss Presley spotted them today..and let's just say I caved in. I let her pick from all the choices..and she was very attached to the dolphin. So the dolphin pillow pet is the newest member of the Sharp household. Her name is "Marina" She is rather cute, I must admit...and it matches those beautiful blue eyes below!
 :)



We went on a walk, and when we got back.. i took a few pics of Presley in this sweet little summer dress. ( it was a little too bright for pics, but we had fun) Poor Daisy was trying to potty, and Presley was right up in her personal space, lol!
I am loving these pretty days where we can get outside!!! Looking forward to getting her pool ready soon!

 I know that pic is major blurry..but, it was too cute not to post!

On another note, she is LOVING Veggietales..so I am thinking that just may be the 3rd bday theme. I know its a little early, but, I am a planner! :) She also LOVES wibbly pig. I know I am going to get her some of his books for sure!! He really is TOO CUTE, we love that he is ondemand! If you haven't seen him, check him out.. The show is on the cbeebies under kids..BBC..Its a really cute show!

Little Shirley Temple look alike :)

I have had several people say Presley reminded them of Shirley Temple.. So I did a little comparison for fun.. So cute! I LOVED Shirley Temple when I was little.. so I may have to invest in some DVD classics for my little cutie pie :)

Wordless Wednesday

I am getting settled in our cute place in Brentwood.. starting to slowly decorate and make it look like a home. I have so many plans for the playroom...just need to be patience..and find things I really LOVE. Miss Presley's room still has nothing hanging on the walls.. but in time..it will happen :)
I promise to take pics once everything is finished.. I am changing Presley's bathroom completely.. I am doing a "fish theme" and its looking so cute!! I also have LOTS to paint..since I changed the colors in my living room..I gotta get busy spray painting!

Presley is keeping us laughing.. This morning was a first, she woke up, opened her door, came down the stairs, walked into our bedroom and said, "Good morning, Mommy!" lol
She also is talking up a storm..and becoming a little too picky at times. When it comes to the TV, she wants to watch Dora, and 5 min later, she wants to watch Veggie Tales!! She is also keeping me busy in the kitchen, with, "I want strawberries, I want pretzels, I want milk...etc" :) Ah, the joys of this little girl!!

She loves to play outside..and I took some sweet pics of her the other day playing at Grey's. She LOVED the sandbox, and I am keeping my eye out for a small one.
We plan to get her new pool up this weekend..gotta get an electric pump.


These were taken the other day in our backyard.. She insisted on putting on her sunglasses all by herself..that's why they are on her ears, ha!



My little ray of sunshine :)

Greyson's 3rd Birthday

This past Sunday, we went to the Mckown's to celebrate one of Presley's best buddies, Greyson's 3rd bday..It was so much fun! He and Presley are so excited to be back in the same city again! These are the sweet friends we meet in Cincy..to later "follow" to Nashville. I just happen to have my camera on me..so I snapped some pics, until the battery went dead. lol.. it was tired from our Chattanooga trip. :)
I would love to save up for an external flash, because indoor pics are just not my friend. I just know they could be so much better..but, that's the perfection coming out! :)

Here is some pics of Grey's fun day:





We went yesterday to Monkey Joes to celebrate with him on his actual birthday.. Grey and Presley had a BLAST!! We will be back for sure! :)

Chattanooga Weekend Getaway

Matt has been working so hard, that we thought a weekend away to somewhere close would be fun for our little family!! Matt had been to Chattanooga before, this was Presley and I's first time.. WE HAD SO MUCH FUN!!
It is only a 2 hour drive, so we got up early on Friday..and got there little after lunch. We ate at the Terminal Brewhouse..so yummy..then headed to the Marriott where we stayed to get settled and let Presley take a nap. After she got up, we went to the Art District.. and saw some really COOL fountains downtown..lots of kids were swimming and playing.. Presley loved watching! Then we headed over to Tony's for dinner. It was so good!! Presley loved that they gave free chocolate ice cream to sweet little girls, too:)
The next day, on Saturday, we took her to the AMAZING aquarium. She loved seeing the fish, sharks, turtles, sting rays, butterflies, etc. Matt bought her a stuffed penguin, which they named "Wilbur" ( don't ask, my husband's idea) and she asks where Wilbur is often now.. haha.. even wants to sleep with him.
Then we had lunch at Sweet Pepper's Deli ( one of Matt's and I fav. places in Memphis) no longer there so we were excited to grab lunch here! Then after naps, we took Presley to Coolidge Park to play in the sprinklers and ride the carosel.. it was fun, but super crowded.. so we didn't stay long.
Dinner that night was wonderful..highly recommend Sticky Fingers BBQ.. it wasn't Memphis BBQ or my Uncle Mark's ribs.. but, it was pretty good!! Then we took a pedal ride a few blocks down to Ben and Jerry's ,, what a TREAT! It was such a beautiful weekend.. and even better that I got to spend it with my sweet little family! I am so blessed, and love having little fun weekend adventures to new places!! I would highly recommend Chattanooga, lots of stuff to do.. we will be back for sure!!



 MY 2 LOVES :)

 One of the only pics of the two of us.. I loved being behind the camera :)

Memphis Flood

While in Memphis, we visited downtown to see all the flooding that recently happened. It hasn't been that flooded since 1937! Here are some pics.. the lighting wasn't great..super sunny still..so I did the best I could. It was amazing to see the water this high!







We are excited that its starting to warm up.. It has been cloudy here the last few days.. and we are ready for park playdates..and to play in our new pool! I found this pool on craigslist for $10..org. $40..only been used once..the lady is only getting rid of it because they have a neighborhood pool. I can't wait to get it up and running for Presley..she has been asking to go swimming almost every day! Can't beat $10 find and LOVED that it has a little slide...too cute!!!

WE are also super excited, because tomorrow night..MATT GETS HOME!!! WHOO HOO!! After SEVERAL weeks of him working out of town Mon-Fri.. we are excited for him to be home!! He will start his new schedule soon..where he will be traveling..just not 5 days a week and will always have weekends off with us! We are going to take a family getaway trip to Chattanooga this weekend.. and I can't wait!!!
