Thats what little girls are made of....

This weekend my mother and I threw my little sister's baby shower. It. Was. Absolutely. B-E-A-U-T-I-F-U-L!
and
Our best work yet!
People were so in awe with everything we had done that restaurant guest were taking pictures and asking if we were for hire!!!!!!!

To welcome my new little niece Emilie Rae ...we had MS pom poms in hues of coral and pinks cascading from a gorgeous picture tree...delicious gourmet cupcakes in delectable flavors like passion fruit...peanut butter...smores...carrot cake and vanilla chai all from Cupcakes Squared.

Soapsicles for every guest.

And...

Winner's from our scratch and win ticket went home with adorable scented candles
(these are not the exact ones, but close)


Overall it was a magical day for my beautiful sister

Thank GOOOOOOOOODNESSS It's Friday!!!

Confession:
Terrible 2's ...Terrible3's....and PLEASE PLEASE NO 4's

For the sake of my sanity....(and for the sake of my already thinning hair)

I hope and pray that my darling 3 year old chills the F back!


I wish spanking ( despite the stink eye I get from my parents) worked. I wish yelling like a crazed women worked. I wish Nanny 911 worked. I wish I wish I wish.

The last couple of weeks he has been a complete terror at home and in school! And now I find myself standing in the corner on time out. Of course with a glass of wine in hand. What baffles me most and what I cant seem to wrap my head around is how he listens to his papa....errrrr....! Must be the man voice...I gotta get me one of those.

Nonetheless, its back to the drawing board.

I NEED to step my game up and stop melting every time he smiles and says "but I wub you mama...your sooo beeeeaaaauuuuuttttiifuuulll"- all with a twinkle in his eye.

So everyone (my 2 followers and 1 reader *wink*) when "they" say" watch out for terrible 3's"

"they" were serious.

Its NO JOKE.

Confession

He's growing up....

This morning my only child, the brightest and most my precious thing in my life brushed his teeth and changed out from his diaper and into his fruities (under roos) all by him self ... And as I laid there and watched him turn on the T.V. and situate himself on the bed like a big boy...I realized how fast they grow and HOW much they change. And even though it's a natural state of progression it's always bitter sweet whenever you leave a stage behind....

It just reminds me that He will never be this small again.

All I know is that...

He glows
He is magnetic
He is charming
He is loving
He is kind
He is funny
He is sweet
He is smart

He is perfect .....






Ugh...he makes me melt...

Come to Mama....


These FABULOUS suede BCBG pump have been on my radar for for a couple of weeks now...and after much research...a few promo codes later...these bad boys are mine!

BCBG Grido Suede Platform Pumps

A FABULOUS match to my new Victorian Sweater dress from Ruche.
The feel of Anthropologie ...minus the price tag!

Keeping up with the Kardassians!

I had the BEST time last night with my family and friends...Halloween has proven that it doesn't ALWAYS have to be about the kiddies!

It's soooo great to be able to get together with folks who have NO problem being complete jackasses with you. From The Dash Dolls , Slumdog Millionaire, and Bert and Ernie to a very questionable Suicide Bomber A.K.A's costume party was a B-L-A-S-T!

...and of course a few shots of liquid courage are always helpful!



To the Husband: You were quite possibly the most hilarious costume there...my Mr. Serious surprises me everyday ;) You sure know what LOVE is when your man throws on heels, lashes and weave at your request and act a fool!....muah!

Below are some pix of our Dashing night!

Not quite...but a close second!
