sam & libby

when i saw sam & libby was doing a collaboration with target it took me back. back to 6th grade when i had a terrible curly perm with hot pink plastic glasses that no one should ever have. accompanied by braces that were ever changing during the holidays. green and red? yes, please. how else will all my friends know it's christmas? i had quite the trifecta going on at the time. as an awkward 6th grader i remember having these exact ballet flats. i must have chose red during christmastime... luckily i kinda outgrew that awkward phase but still went on to still choose the most practical of footwear. which brings us to these boots. i love an ankle boot. when i ran into these little pretties i knew i had to scoop them up. a flat boot, buckles, straps, and show the right amount of ankle as to not give the appearance of a cankle? thank you.  then i saw the price tag...$45. two twenties and a five for a pair of target boots?? i reluctantly put them back and went on my way. still, those boots kept taunting me. "they were quite comfy. they did look pretty cute. i mean, i could wear them with like a ton of stuff. people up north spend  hundreds of dollars on boots every winter. why can't i be apart of that and i'm not even spending hundreds. i do have 20% off and on top of my 5% from my red card they are practically giving them to me!?" so it was settled. i went and purchased them within the next few days and they have remained on my feet since. i even tried to wear them to bed the other night but rey got really weirded out and i figured i had to draw the line somewhere.

power walkin'


here i am searching for a bug that just bit my arm, wrist, forearm area. felt like a sting. then started to burn. then a couple of eighty-year-olds power walked by me and i completely forgot about the mystery bite. the power of power walking is amazing.

photobomber

i  googled the word photobomber. why? because i basically google everything. i made toast the other day and even googled a how to tutorial on ask.com. 
my google search steered me to urban dictionary. they usually provide me with all of my useful knowledge when it comes to googling important catch words. did you know there are six definitions of photobomb? no? me neither until like thirty-five seconds ago. i also found out the word pirate can take on a completely different meaning. maybe next time i'll just stick with websters.

kimono. on repeat.


fall officially has begun. all the candy corn and pumpkin spice lattes on instagram kinda gave it away. 

have i told you how much i love kimonos? i'm pretty sure i have. i hashtag love kimonos. why? because, it's easy to conceal your caramel apple lollipop slash pumpkin spice latte slash candy corn, peanut mixture belly. keep up. fall has a lot of treats. or. maybe i just like to eat. a lot.

fall {ish}


over the weekend we snapped some quick fall photos. quick because the tutu i wore instantly became a net for love bugs. apparently they are attracted to white. apparently rey knew this and wanted to be all judgey "i don't know why you wore white. love bugs love white." "oh, thanks. because i'm a bug reporter and should have known there were going to be eighty-three thousand bugs here." also, i would like the record to reflect that landon was actually really good. like, really good. as in he didn't run aimless around the field. he actually sat. he actually played with apples and pretended to feed me them. fingers crossed he will do the same for christmas photos we take in october. because, like they say "nothing says trick or treat like a christmas tree!" and by they i mean me.

side eye


i give the side eye. like. a lot. sometimes intentional. sometimes not. most of the time intentional. it's kinda like my "go to" face. it makes a huffy puffy sound without actually making the sound. go ahead, give it a try. you may never go back to that pouty angry face. which, come to think of it,  i have actually also perfected.

ripped to shreds


i love these shorts. worn in. ripped in all the right places. until, last week when they ripped a hand print size of a hole across my butt. i showed it to rey. "is this really noticeable? like can you really see my butt or just a little bit of my butt? do you think the other mom's at preschool will notice?" he responded "you can definitely see your butt. you need to patch those up with something." "what? i don't know how to patch stuff?! so you mean i really shouldn't wear them, like, it's that noticeable?" "go ahead and wear them. but, don't be all weirded out when people stare and whisper about you all day." "ok, i'll wear them. just with a long shirt or something. thanks!"

the opposite of chilly

there is a chill in the air here in central florida. and by chill i mean at 6:00 a.m. it's 74° and the projected forecast for the week claims it won't reach 90°. i bought a beanie last week in anticipation for this weather. can't wait to break out that bad boy this week. kidding. maybe.

weekly snaps


this week we took a lot of selfies. did some wedding photography. i personally gained 3lbs from consuming a package of  talenti mediterranean mint pops and candy corns with peanuts. my plan today is to chug as much water as possible and eat donuts. that should help. have a great weekend!
