Weekending

We had quite the busy weekend and we didn’t let a little thing like snow stand in our way :) 

SATURDAY

We dressed to impress for a playdate with her highschool class (NRHS Class of 2032!)…
Headband: The Purple Bobbin / Shirt: H&M / Pants: Old Navy / Boots: Robeez

All bundled up and ready to brace the cold and snow… 

Hat, Coat, Pants: BabyGap

I love how pretty the snow looks after a storm…
Playing with her new friends and mesmerized by bubbles…
SUNDAY

Our second swimming class was successful, she kicked and splashed and tried to eat the water..
Mama and mini selfie during lunch time …
A rare baby-free afternoon called for some adult beverages…
and the 4:30 showing of American Sniper…if you haven’t seen this movie or read the book, do it ASAP. I haven’t seen a movie that good in such a long time. I hope that he and his family are proud of it.
Now we are bracing ourselves for the blizzard of 2015. They are predicting over 2 feet of snow and 70mph winds. Already people are panicking – shelves at the stores are empty, school is canceled for the next two days, and the governor has declared a state of emergency. Flights are grounded, and the roads are being shut down as of midnight tonight.
Please pray that they are wrong :)
I hope that you are warm and safe wherever you are! Have a good week friends!

Thoughts for Thursday

Do you ever get to the point where your hair just drives you absolutely crazy, and you have to do something with it?!
Yeah, I’m there :)
My hairdresser always knows when I’m thinking about doing something with my hair, because I start pinning like crazy! 
My appointment is Saturday – and I will be wearing my hair in a pony until then.
Here are a few I pinned and am loving!

Ok a couple things – clearly, I am missing my ombre hair. Also, clearly I want curly hair. Or at least wavy hair. Which I CAN do. I just don’t – because I need “get ready in five minutes” hair. But I think I would like the option of being able to do either, or.
I’m leaning toward option number 3 – but what do you think?

Cozy Winter Must-Haves

I would say that we’ve been really fortunate so far that we still have very little snow on the ground, which is unusual for us this time of year, however, it is very, very cold! 
Now that I have a little one who goes to sleep by 7:30pm, all of our evenings are spent cozied up inside. So I thought I would put together a post on must-haves for staying warm and cozy on a night in!
Obviously I start with what I’m wearing…. am the kind of person that puts on leggings or sweatpants the second I get home. Anyone else?

One / Two / Three / Four
Once Nugget is in bed, I’m snuggled up on the couch with a big blanket! And then depending on my mood and the day of the week, it’s either tea & a magazine OR wine & Bravo TV :)
Throw / Candle
When I finally crawl into bed at night, nothing makes me happier than a fresh set of sheets. It is seriously the best feeling ever (it doesn’t take much to make me happy!). Have you heard of Parachute Home yet? They have amazing quality bedding and sheets and they had the ingenious idea to sell them with or without the top sheet. Anyone else hate the top sheet? It gets twisted, and stuck and can be so annoying! Be sure to check them out!
What are you must-haves for staying cozy on a cold winter night??
