I could just end this post now with ...... I AM IN LOVE WITH CLEAN BEE BABY!! But you probably want to know why....let's start at the beginning. Gross. Gross to the gazillionth degree! I really wasn't kidding when I mentioned how excited I was to see Xpecting's newsletter a few weeks ago about Clean Bee Baby's visit to clean the heck out of carseats and strollers. Truthfully, I was...
So I've never tried this service before, BUT, it's come highly recommended to me from 2 different sources that I really trust. One of those sources is Xpecting Maternity (where CleanBeeBaby will be this month). I've written about this awesome Maternity and Post Maternity store before because the owner Stephani is AMAZING! She knows what moms and moms-to-be need. Stephani helped me get through 3 years of pregnancies before she...
So who has booked their family photo for their holiday cards this year...let me see a show of hands... I'm waiting.... Still waiting.... You know the photo you take to remember how young you still are? And how cute your kids are?? Hmmm....lack of hands. You would think everyone has tons on their plate or something....school, kids activities, jobs, running around like headless chickens, catching up on DVR shows... I...
I love, love, love Wink Lash Studio!!!! Call me crazy, but I decided to give the whole eyelash extension thing a try...and guess what, I LOVE it!!! This summer my eyes looked like they belonged to a normal, regular sleeping, makeup wearing adult (which they didn't, but they did)...go figure. Even my Hubs noticed them faster than he has EVER noticed a new haircut or new outfit... I never had...
So you waited for it, and here it is, the COOOOOLEST giveaway! When I decided that I wanted to do this blog after so much friend encouragement, I knew that I could not do it halfway. And that it was an all or nothing kind of thing. But here enters the first of many problems: I have very high standards... I barley understand Facebook, let alone Wordpress, HTML code or...
I am so fortunate to know a photographer like Sandy Heit! Not only has she been amazing at capturing wonderful images of our children and family, but she is also a wealth of knowledge in helping me learn how to use this new beast of a camera that I'm swinging around these days! (To see more on Sandy, check out this earlier post). Soap Box Moment for just a sec......
Who doesn't need a little closet organizing and packing help? Pretty sure we all do...I have yet to meet this fabulous lady, but am very much looking forward to the opportunity as she has worked wonders on a number of friends wardrobes and closets. I think after #3 arrives in March... (HELLO, doctor told me today welcome to your 3RD TRIMESTER! HOW did that happen so quickly!!!) Anyway, back to...
Well, I have definitely been a little behind the game this week! I kind of feel like Addie in this photo! I WAS feeling pretty good about all the fun posts this week! So many wonderful FAVORITES! But then as I sat down to work on today's post, it occurred to me that I never posted a menu, shopping list or December "to do" list last Friday!!! HELLO - brain...
I love Cotton Idea Studio. This darling little store shares a shoppe space with Halsea on Balboa Peninsula. Here's an idea for a great FAVORITE lunch time activity.... 1. Load your car up with your Holiday gifts that you really WANT to wrap, but know that you are going to run out of time (and besides they kinda should look REALLY good - your boss, your mother-in-law, your mother....). 2....
A few last minute Halloween things to think about.... FIRST - have you ever thought about doing something, but are totally "spooked" at what it might cost that you rule it out before you try? I'm usually pleasantly surprised when I actually ASK what it might cost.  That being said - how about having someone else do you're eye makeup and fake lashes for Halloween? (Feel like a celebrity for...
