Johnny was not impressed with me still wanting to take his "1st day of school" pic but I told him he had to give me one. (see above) When I tried for a second telling his father to get in the picture I got a huge thumbs down. Hubs wasn't thrilled either but … [Read more...]

I'm finally looking at clothing again. I'm trying not to invest in too much but after feeling like I had nothing to wear to a wedding shower last weekend I knew it was time to find some pieces I could wear dressed up or casually.

He caught me at the last mile of my run tonight so I walked back and when I got home he … [Read more...]
