11 months: Moving Along

11 months: Moving Along
She loves Daddy - stalks him as soon as he enters the room. peek-a-boo - she loves to cover her eye or both eyes, the side of her face, or hiding her head behind objects. She does it while she's nursing, while I change her diaper, when eating, basically all day every day. clapping - She is so a…

Thrifting Thursday: Make It Work

Thrifting Thursday: Make It Work
I love wearing tunics whether they're in or out of style. They're comfortable and easy to slip on. I was drawn to this one because of the tri-colored stripes with silver thread running between them. Orange is my color. It adds a lovely warm glow to my skin. There are also sequins around the…

Thrifting Thursday: A Bit of Sunshine

Thrifting Thursday: A Bit of Sunshine
V has a meltdown every time I take her to a thrift store and she has no interest when I catwalk all my purchases. Rude baby. I forgot I have a blog and I can share them with the world (or at least the handful of people who stop by here). :) I found this dress at Village Discount Outlet. I was prepar…

Road Trip

Road Trip
What I've learned on V's first road trip: Just because you've timed the drive to coincide with naptime doesn't mean the nap will occur. V slept about 30 minutes and that was before we hit the highway. She was cranky and wanted out for the remainder of the trip. Static on the radio is …

Baby Sign Language - Maziwa!

Baby Sign Language - Maziwa!
Ms. V's first signing word is......... Milk! Is that a surprise? I'm not sure she knows to ask for it by making the symbol but she does know Maziwa (swahili for milk) is equal to the sign for milk. Awwwww. I love her. Signing Mamas, is this how it works? I've been directing her to the mil…

Nail Polish Love - The 80s Called....
Great color but I had to apply 3 coats and it still wasn't very opaque. Extremely light and watery. It chipped and lifted within a day because of all the coats I had on. I really want this to work. I love it! Next time I will add a thicker polish underneath. Neon polish anyone?

Brain Dump II

Brain Dump II
We need to get out more. I haven't gone to a meetup in a while because it seems V picks up a cold after then she will give it to Him. Baby cold and man cold? No thanks. I think it's making her a real Clingy McClinggenbottom though. I went to the funeral of a family member last week and real…

Nail Polish Love - Barbie Pink and A Splash of Champagne

Nail Polish Love - Barbie Pink and A Splash of Champagne
The title is not really the names of the polishes pictured but I think that's what they should be called. Don't you think? Zoya's Starla on it's own is not very exciting. I've worn it before . I used Sinful Color's A Slice to Go as the first coat color. It's more opaque t…
