Hey there! Oh my gosh, do you even remember that I blog?? It has been a while … insert a bajillion excuses here. Oh yeah, ummmm, okay, let me just tell you why. Work has been insanely busy. It’s that good kind of busy though. I’m learning so much and really loving putting that PMP to good use. Jellybean has been staying up later, which is great because we get more quality time during the week! The only down side is it shortens then amount of time I have with both my hand and not having to keep one eye on the bambino! Post bedtime stories are packed with household stuff, relaxing and QT with the hubby. Finding the energy and motivation to blog has been hard, but I’ve really missed it.
So I’m back … and oh so hopeful you will accept me back into the fold. =)
Lets get to it with my current favorites this Friday!
I finally got around to ordering prints from January to March of this year … jeez I’m a slacker! But, seriously, what is better than actual prints?!?! Any-hoo this picture is from Easter weekend and I just love it. Jellybean is concentrating on saying hello to the ‘baaa baaa baaa, sheep’. Our kiddo has ZERO fear and stuck her little hand through the fence in an attempt to touch the ‘baaa baaa baaa’. Luckily Grammy was closely monitoring the interaction so I could capture the moment.
I’m totally obsessed with this Crispy Cajan Chicken dish. It’s a home run recipe!! I’ve modified it a little by brushing on the hot sauce and then searing it on the stove top, followed by baking in the oven. When I cooked it on the stove top the whole time all the breading fell off – total bummer. I’ve literally made this meal every week since finding the recipe.
They don’t call these leggings ‘live in’ for nothing! I want to wear the all day everyday. I’m thinking of buying a second pair in another color. And speaking of clothes, I wish it was acceptable to wear the same blazer EVERY.SINGLE.DAY to work. Given how hot is has been in DC as of late this blazer has been clutch. Throw it over my tank top and head to a meeting … professional and comfy!
This baby sponge
Totally loving this fashion blogger. I’m working on creating a new cohesive wardrobe so I’m really into reading these types of blogs recently.
My sister is ENGAGED!!! I got her this super cute cup as an engagement gift. It’s been crazy fun to help her plan a little. It brings back so many memories from planning my own wedding. I’ve also been pinning bridal shower and wedding ideas like crazy. Pinterest … Can’t Stop … Won’t Stop. LOL.
Finally tried this under eye dark circle corrector. Everyone sings it’s praises and I do like it, however I have a feeling I’m not applying it quite right. So I will continue to work on that!
What are your favorites this week?? Happy Friday! I hope you have a fabulous weekend!!
// This is the same brand as the as Sophie Giraffe, which seems to show up on EVERY baby registry list I’ve read. Honestly I liked the Elephant way better than the Giraffe. The giraffe has long legs, which Jellybean has gagged herself on more times than I can count and the elephant’s legs are shorter. Plus it’s nice to be a little different! Tip – this also come in a lion you just have to look past the ginormous giraffe display. :)
// When the pulling up began I quickly realized we needed a toy Jellybean could pull up on and play with. The coffee table was effective at first, but it wasn’t interactive or stimulating … even with toys on the table. I love this activity table and so does JB.
// I can’t even remember who suggested I tries these, but I was sold after 1 night. Instead of purchasing specific night time diapers we place one of the booster pads into the diaper each night and we haven’t had a leak or issue yet!! PLUS the booster pads fit into every size diaper we’ve used so far (sizes 1 -3) … no need to purchase new pads when your little one outgrows their diapers.
// These double as bath toys, regular toys and teething toys. Jellybean LOVES the different characters and at least one can be found in every room in the house.
// No real explanation needed here.
