little marc

i was thinking about how i would blow $300 quickly if i had it.

solution: little marc jacobs

enid sweatshirt dress in mulberry from milkshop for $94



navy mary jane from kitson kids for $198


also thought this delia dress in fairy pink from little marc was sweet- $118



little marc jacobs has some really pricey, but really adorable clothes and shoes. i didn't even know marc jacobs had a kids line. how out of the loop am i. also, ella moss has little ella moss. another fancy kids line.

i just found out there's no such thing as the real world

seriously... my 15 year high school reunion! when did i grow up? or did i?

a quote i read once from someone i don't know but it holds so true, "we are always the same age inside." that is exactly how i feel now and felt going into the reunion.

the ride up was absolutely beautiful. i had forgotten just how scenic and serene those north georgia mountains could be. i cruised the entire way with my radio up (coldplay and gomez) and windows open. so much fun.

yippy for union county!



this is a beautiful view from my parent's road. how nice to see that every day-


me and my bestest, nikki, went together. that was the absolute best part of the reunion, just spending time with her


some friends from back in the day


nikki, our great friend from high school- sammy, and me


seriously, the whole trip was great. i had the opportunity to visit with many people who were once so much of a part of my every day. i also had the time to just sit and visit with my parents. that was precious and rare.

i heard so many celebrity comments yesterday regarding the whole kanye incident with taylor swift. the husband and i both agreed that the absolutely best one came from katy perry on twitter, "f u kanye, it’s like you stepped on a kitten.” hysterical and true. (obviously f u isn't a part of my everyday vocabulary, but i found it appropriate in this context!)

10 toes, no fingers

i took sweet cheeks on monday for her first ever pedicure. she, unlike myself, didn't do the feet soak and scrub (holy geez did i need it- they were sandpaper scary). sweet cheeks did have her nails cut, filed, and painted. she really loved the entire process, right down to sitting in the big massage chair!

she was so comfortable with the whole process-



it was funny to see her feet jerk every so often. they are quite ticklish



my oc girl spent her spare time, while they finished me up, organizing the nail polish by brand, then by color. it did occupy her for the last 15 minutes.


the finished product. love the flower on each big toe. what cute feet she has

shoes to fall in

sweet cheeks and i did a bit of fall shopping over the holiday weekend. one thing i knew i needed to get for her for fall was some new shoes. apparently when a kid grows, their feet do to! go figure. so we went to sears to check out their lands end kid shoes.

this is what we got for sweet cheeks-



if i had any patience, i would have held out for these though online. still might have to order them. unfortunately the selection of shoes at sears is not near as good as lands end online selection for style and sizing.



these are pretty cute as well.


i can totally see sweet cheeks in a mustard colored loafer! (i also love the inside of this shoe)
