Typically, I’m a brown bag type of working mom. Even if my “brown bag” is now a brown Thirty-One thermal tote! My preferred lunch is a fresh turkey sandwich with lettuce and tomato, a veggie like carrot sticks or cucumber slices, and a fruit like the fresh strawberries I had today. I always end it

The New Home Office
Here it is. The moment you’ve all some of you have been waiting for. The Home Office reveal. It’s hard to believe that back in April Andy and I had a “what if” conversation about this room and now only four months later the dream is reality. If you are not aware of our ongoing makeover, where
Kirkland Toddler Boots
If you love the Kirkland UGG-style boots as much as I do…they’re back! At least the toddler and youth ones were on display today at my Costco. We got two new pairs for Stella this year. She chose pink again, but this year they seem darker and have hearts on them. And she opted for
Fifty Shades of Grey Party This Weekend
http://www.lollymerchant.com/product/3001 Unfortunately the party isn’t in Australia…or all of the guests would be leaving with their own whips…Cadbury, of course! I finally finished all three of the Mr. Grey books. And about 20 women are scheduled to come over Saturday night to discuss the trilogy. There are door prizes for everyone
Will Henry Survive??
The older Henry gets, the more he’ll do anything the girls say. This weekend’s pretend play = “let’s go swimming” due to all the recent visits we’ve had to different pools. So, here he is below. Princess sleep mask = pretend goggles Stella’s hot pink slippers = pretend snorkel/scuba fins Add a hot pink basket full
And the Verdict Is…
Kind of in between based upon stylist’s recommendation due to my hair type. We are going to wait until the next cut closer to fall to incorporate more bangs due to heat and humidity right now. Hope y’all don’t hate it! – Posted using BlogPress from my iPad
Haircut Time, But Which One??
Let the votes begin. You only have about 4 hours, but I am scheduled for a haircut this afternoon. And it’s time for a change…but just how much of a change? You help me decide. So, here I am today. In the photo below you will see long, yucky, heavy, no real layers hair. I
Birchbox
Ever heard of Birchbox? I hadn’t. Not until I saw that Stephanie from girls, pearls and combat boots had signed up and loved it. And then another blogger mentioned that her husband loved the fuzzy socks he recently received. I was intrigued. Here’s how it’s described on their website: “Birchbox is
Who’s Been Here?
I saw this a few weeks ago and had to laugh. This isn’t EXACTLY how it occurs in my house. Poor Andy usually doesn’t even get a chance to ask those questions. I’m guessing I’m usually barking stating a million orders directions before he even gets a chance to think of anything to
My Little Buddy
This little guy is so sweet and just cracks me up. He is also “Buddy” at home. Although, I do think Stella and Charlotte both realize now that his real name is Henry. The only bummer is that he HATES smiling for the camera. He usually goes all grumpy-face on me. This morning I managed
I Love Painter’s Tape
Whenever I’m thinking about adding a new piece of furniture to a room or new artwork to a wall my husband hands me two items: a measuring tape and a roll of painter’s tape. I love painter’s tape. It’s a great way to outline and visualize something new. Furniture…how much floor space will it really
