It's Almost Time To Go. But First, Let's Remember What We Did Today!

It's been a loooong time since my last post. What can I say? I've been lazy!

Last month, PJ stayed home one Monday to watch BAR & BKB. He sent the cutest email about their day that I wanted to share. Obviously, those two kiddos are two of my most favorite things:) His email is below:

We watched the trash truck pick up all the trash...















We played drums...















We watched the trippy parts of Yo Gabba Gabba...















We walked the dog...















We played with sidewalk chalk...



















We both sat on the potty (pictures are not suitable for work (or this blog), and Brooks took everything off)...

And we ended the day with a nice kiss by the water...

Sleeping Beauty

Now that I'm a mom, I've realized that importance of sleep. Even though baby boy is sleeping through the night, he still likes to get up early. For some reason, babies don't seem to know when it's the weekend...what's up with that? For those moments when I am able to nap during the day when he does, I snuggle up with my best friend, my silk satin sleeping mask from Mary Green (sorry, Peej). It is a lifesaver and a little peice of heaven!

Baubles!

Clearly, I love South Moon Under and jewelry. On the same trip I purchased my mug (see yesterday's post), I also bought this cute bauble necklace. What's even better is that it was inexpensive - my favorite kind of jewelry! (Well, when I'm buying. If PJ's buying, it better be expensive!). I bought the periwinkle since it matches moer of my wardrobe but the turquoise and orange is perfect for spring/summer. Now all we need is for the weather to warm up!

Mug Shots

It's been a while since I've posted anything but I have been pretty busy with the usual day-to-day. So busy, in fact, that I haven't even really had time to do my favorite thing...shopping! Yesterday I was meeting some friends for dinner and decided to pop into one of my favorite stores, South Moon Under. They have great clothes, awesome jewelry & accessories, and fun gifts. I got a little nostalgic when I saw these:

Naturally, I had to get Little Miss Chatterbox. Just ask PJ how I am when I get on the phone with one of my girlfriends I haven't talked to in forever!

As we all know, the royal wedding is coming up. U.S. coverage will begin sometime around 5:30am. What better way to celebrate by drinking your morning coffee out of this very appropriate mug: If you're looking for something a little more personalized, South Moon Under also has initial mugs. On my first day at a new job, my friend got me an "H"mug as a "Congrats on your new job" present. I love it and everytime I use it, I think of her:) This is a great gift for a friend or yourself! Why drink out of a boring mug when you can drink out of a fun one? :)

Initially Speaking...

I know it's been a while since my last post. Between the holidays and planning Brooks' birthday party, I have been a busy bee. I must have been a very good girl last year because Santa (aka Peej) got me everything on my Christmas list...but really, when does he not? One of my favorite presents is the "little letters necklace" from Alex Woo. Naturally, I got the letter "b" for my boys, Brooks and Bailey. I love my necklace so much and I've gotten so many compliments on it. It's simple enough for me to wear every day and it bears great meaning. Ok, so sometimes I put it on backwards and it ends up becoming a "d" instead, but hey, it just shows the versatility of the necklace;)

I love all the other designs in her collection of jewelry. They are absolutely adorable. Not only does she have letters and numbers, she also has animals and symbols too. You can buy several pieces and mix & match them together to personalize it just for you. For any guys reading this (which I doubt), it would make a great Valentine's Day or Anniversary present!

Sporting a "b" for my boy, Brooks!
