jonesin' fridays

A few things I am jonesin' for this week....

I am so glad they make cute one piece suits now!
I love this color and style too. Is there an Anthropologie outlet? ;-)
I'm itching to read this baby book! I need to get it on my Kindle ASAP.


I originally pinned this bracelet thinking one day I would buy it for my mom, but I kind of really want it. {Sorry, momma}



What's on your wishlist?

mid 20's crisis

Yesterday I was in the middle of a mid-20's crisis...or so I thought. Dramatic? Maybe - but that is honestly how it felt at the time. I just sat at the computer rocking Poppy's bouncer with my foot and tried to distract myself with blogs, Pinterest, Facebook, etc. I heard Amelia around the corner start singing the words to The Wiggles songs, and instantly felt 95% better. So I relocated Poppy and myself to the couch to watch the show, because that's where I needed to be.

After this first week of keeping Poppy, Amelia has made it very clear that she is not getting enough attention. By the end of the day yesterday she was ready to send Poppy packing {only to ask where she was 2 hours later}. I'm going to really have to work at still doing the things Amelia and I normally do when Poppy isn't here. I think I've made up for it this morning. It's only 8:30 {8:39} {8:48} {8:55} and it has already taken me 45 minutes to write this little bit. And I've reheated my coffee twice..Her favorite game this morning is hiding under my covers from monsters. Confession: sometimes I don't even tell her they aren't there and they aren't real, because I love that she wants me hiding under the covers with her keeping her safe from the "monstuhs".



Our Disney trip was almost cancelled due to some unfortunate events, but Michel and my mom are doing everything they can to make it happen. Can't wait for Monday week. I need some magical moments in my life!


Happy Friday!
{look for a jonesin' fridays post this afternoon}

Gotta get back to my sweet niece and rowdy kiddo! ;-)

foggy afternoons

Yesterday, I sent my mom a text after a long whiny morning that read "You will be my best friend if you take Amelia for a few hours". Thankfully, my mom really wants to be my best friend and took her off our hands for the afternoon! Some days I feel like it's all I can do to just survive some moments. Yesterday morning my whole day felt like it was off to a rough start thanks to a very sad dream I had. Amelia was showing off her best "terrible 2's" tantrums and my patience was running thin. I hate feeling like that. Like I am just "surviving" motherhood and not enjoying motherhood. That's why I knew it was important to get a few hours to myself.

The day ended well. Adam & I decided to take the boat out for our first boat ride of the year, and it was foggy and fabulous. When we left the house it was sunny & warm, and as soon as we hit Navarre we were surrounded by a thick fog. We took the boat out anyways and dropped the anchor. We sat on the floor in the boat and we washed down Chex Mix with Coors. We sat and talked, and we also sat & enjoyed moments of silence. It was awesome. I am so glad March is here, and I am looking forward to many more boat rides with Adam & Amelia {and friends & family}.

These precious summer dresses.


Baby Hunter boots. It doesn't get much cuter.

This special edition mixer would be so cute on my counters. {I'll find space, Adam.}
