12 months: Happy Birthday, Little Miss Violet!
She loves
Daddy - of course, he's still the rock star and she goes bananas when he walks through the door.
dancing - she's so excited about standing and moving. She wildly wave her arms around and bounces up and down to the beat of her own drum.
books - Petting Farm is still her favorite bo…
Thrifting Thursday: Florals
I'm not really into floral patterns but this one was ok. The print is more jungle then garden flower (make sense?). I was really drawn to the tunic style of the collar and the elastic waist. It's a little bit long and a little bit big though. It didn't seem so big in Unique's mirror…

Nail Polish Love - Hodge Podge
I normally switch to darker colors or classic reds in the colder months. I really like all the experimentation I did this summer though. Maybe I'll keep it going. Do you paint your nails according to the seasons?
Thrifting Thursday: Mama Style
The tunic is from the epic thrift haul. There's really nothing special about it except for the fact that it was $0.45. I would have probably left it behind but at that price...why not bring it home?
The jeans are from a recent thrift date I had at Goodwill with GirlGetALife*, Latiffany, Laila,…
Thrifting Thursday: Romper and Red Shoes
I bought this romper during the epic thrift haul event with BFF. I love rompers and I'm glad they've made a small comeback this summer. This one features lovely coconut shell buttons and a paisley pattern that reminds me of my South African fabric. It has pockets too!
True story: I've …
The First Date
We finally had our first date sans V over the weekend. I had a great time. We went to see Rise of the Planet of the Apes. SN: any fans out there? I love the movies and tv show. After, we had a leisurely lunch at Zapatista. We don't normally have too many problems dining out with V, it still fel…
Thrifting Thursday: Dating Myself
I bought this top at Village Discount Outlet on a recent thrift binge with BFF. We had so much stuff. I spent $36 (15 items) which is $16 over my normal limit but I liked everything and couldn't leave anything behind. This was an epic thrift adventure!
I love the colors of the psychedelic prin…
Breastfeeding Break: Dumping the Pump
After lugging the breast pump kit on our road trip and not using it, I asked myself why am I still doing this? Most days I only pump once a day so that V is given a bottle at night.
In the beginning, I was doing it so that He could be involved in the bedtime routine.
I later got it in my head tha…
