Getting back into the swing of things, fashion edition

I am SO glad it is about to be spring weather...I am MAJORLY ready for new, fun colorful clothes!! I have always preferred spring and summer clothing over winter and this year even more so...it's been a while since I have had fun shopping...maternity clothes just don't cut it. I am looking forward to slowly (that's for Mikey, ha!) building up my spring/summer wardrobe. Unfortunately, even when I do lose these last couple of pregnancy pounds I don't think most of my dresses from last summer are going to fit the same because of my LADY PARTS!!! Aaahhh! Don't think those will go away anytime soon either, at least as long as I am breastfeeding, such is life I guess. But, seriously..we had a wedding this past weekend and anything that I had that was appropriate for this time of year was just too snug across my chest:( Bummer. But, at least that gave me the opporutnity to get a cute new dress!

I've bought a couple of new items recently, but am ready to buy MORE! Bring on the heat, I am ready for pretty and color filled outfits!

I was thining this Lilly dress would be cute for Easter...little motivation to lose even more weight by then.



Finally got me some new nude pumps, love these Vince Camuto beauties...they were on sale at Belk, yay for sales!


I've been wanting a cute black blazer and either didn't like the reviews on the less expensive ones on piperlime, they didn't have my size, or they were too expensive...well I found this one at Kohl's via the Lauren Conrad brand and I LOVE it! I always forget about her brand at Kohl's but she does have some pretty cute stuff.






Thought this Greylin dress via Piperlime was adorable.



And now for my second rent the runway experience...I am in a wedding THIS Saturday, woohoo!! Not knowing when baby girl would come I put off getting a dress since I didn't know what size I would be, etc. Well...we are able to wear whatever black dress we want, which is GREAT, but of course, I own NO black dresses. What can I say, I like color! Anyways, I didn't want to spend money on a really nice/cute black dress that isn't the size I want to be very soon. So...I went to RTR. I went with this Milly beauty, it comes in tomorrow. Pray it works!





So ready to shop!

What's in a name?

I tell ya, the name game is HARD. Really hard. I never thought that I'd be 27 years old and pregnant and not know what I wanted to name my child. I *think* we have come up with the one , but I'm not quite ready to put it out for the world to see...you know, don't want to many people rushing to get monogrammed bubbles. Ha! Jokes! Anyways...so I can look back and remember what all we went thru to come up with a name in 20 years I am going to lay it all out there. I'll start with saying I want a family name to be somewhere in my children's names. It doesn't have to be a first name, but some name in the child's name I want to be from a family member/family. We'll start with boys names, because they got taken off the table when we found out it was a GIRL..this will be short. Mikey's middle name is Thomas...his grandfather's name is Thomas. So...we always said Thomas would be in our son's name. I always thought it would be cool to do a Tho...

Takeover Tuesday

Surprise Caro, guess who hacked into your blog! I know what you are saying to yourself...I can’t believe it’s taken this long for me to mess with you on here. For those of you who haven’t figured it out yet, this obviously is not your sweet Caroline, this is her wonderful, sarcastic, fun loving, baby daddy (or is it babies’ daddy now?), also known as her husband. (Caro at her finest, throwing me a great 25th birthday celebration) Where do I begin…. I guess we can talk about how this marital bliss came to be before we talk about the author of this blog and how amazing she. Caroline has been the love of my life for as long as I can remember, we were actually first grade boyfriend and girlfriend if you can believe it. After first grade, there was the great divide, as both of us went to different schools the following year. Finally, after 10 agonizing, lonely years we were reunited at a house party our senior year in high school. I, naturally, had always kept an eye on her throughou...

25 weeks....yesterday!

Holy moly!!!! Baby Girl is doing some maaaayjah GROWING:) How far along? 25 weeks. Size of the baby? 13.5 inches and a pound and a half, grow baby girl, grow! Also known as an “average rutabaga”…um, okay. I’ll take Baby Center’s word for it. Maternity Clothes? Same as last week. My wardrobe is shrinking! I have bought several maternity tops, but most of them still look way too big. Still haven’t made the transition to maternity pants even though the bella band aggravates me sometimes. It’s the worst with my work pants, it constantly rolls down. I need to just suck it up and make the switch. Stretch Marks? None have appeared yet, still using the Palmer’s and Bio Oil a few times a week. Movement? Same. It’s so crazy how hard my belly gets at night, it is like she is all knotted up in one place. And the BELLY gets insanely BIG at night! Sleep? Eh…it’s been okay lately. I toss and turn a bunch. Food Cravings? Nothing crazy yet. I have been eating lots of peanu...
