Did you have a good holiday weekend? We came down to Florida because my birthday is always on Memorial Day weekend & it gives me a good excuse to come home & spend it with my family. I can’t believe I’m 33 you guys. Geez Louise.
We were supposed to head back to DC today with P but I decided last minute that the girls & I should stay until Friday. They’re done with school but babysitters are still in school. None of the fun summer programs I signed them up for have started yet & P always has a lot of catch up work whenever we get back from vacation. So why not stay at the non-stop Nana & PopPop Fun Factory? Well, there is one ‘con’, I don’t have any of my crafting supplies. ): I do have a few posts tucked up my sleeve though, just for situations such as this. Before I pull those out however I thought this would be a great opportunity to share all the random tidbits I have stashed away. I’m constantly snapping pics with my phone that I want to blog about but sometimes they’re just not enough for an entire post. Throw them together today though & you’ve got yourself a great mod podge of the randomness that is my life.
Remember Keds? Did you know they’re back? I know, right? First Doc Martens, now Keds, what’s next, Bongo Jeans? There are around 3 different printed sneakers that Keds created for Madewell & I just fell in luvvv with the floral ones. They’re on sale now too! I’m forbidding myself from going back & buying the mint polka dot ones too. So stinkin’ cute.
Did you know Target sells gel polish? It’s so easy to do your own gel manis at home nowadays & I know, I know, I’ve been promising you a gel tutorial for soooo long. I kind of suck sometimes. This neon pink is called Star Power & is by far my favorite. I’ve even taken it to the nail salon when I felt too lazy to do my own. 
…and speaking of neon pink. This Strawberry Shortcake Child’s Wig
I’m kind of on a gold kick, especially gold bands. One of my favorite new movies is ‘This is 40‘ (P doesn’t like it because he said it was scary that it was so much like our real life) & I just loved her layered gold jewelry. The problem is the band I have for my thumb kept flying off when I would move my hands around. Solution? I cut off a piece of one of my adheasive foot pads
This such an accurate snapshot of my life. Daddy on TV, a naked child running around & princess toys everywhere.
We’re heading home on Friday but I’ll post some other goodies before I leave. Take care!
I LOVE those Keds! Such the perfect spring/summer addition to almost any outfit. Also, that pic of a day in your life is too cute!
I never acknowledge my age anymore – I always say I’m celebrating the 4th,10th,20th anniversary of my 21st birthday 🙂
My birthday is always memorial weekend too (25th)!
Your girls are so stinkin cute, by the way!
My husband and I both agree that This is 40 is our life (sad because we too are about 8 years from 40!) we couldn’t stop comparing our lives to the movie, especially the making the kids lunches scene where Paul Rudd was sitting doing nothing!!! They put a camera in my house for that scene!!
OH MY GOSH I know right?!!
just came across your blog, its is too cute i love it! your picture on the right side of the blog is awesome! thanks for sharing!

I love this post because it screams “real-life.” I appreciate people who don’t filter and tell it like it is (probably because I’m one of those types). I remember being pregnant and everyone being like its so amazing and perfect…and I’m like yeah it’s sweet and life-changing and a miracle, BUT I also feel like a whale that can never find its breath. I know soon I’m going to be battling a wild and naked baby. He just learned how to undo his diaper tabs.
Thanks for being refreshing!
You’re so welcome Paula & man do I hear you about the pregnant thing…I spent my whole life thinking it was going to be my favorite experience of my life & turns out…not so much! I really do not love pregnancy…love the kids that come of it but the experience I could do without. Thank you for the honest sweet comment! xoxo!
