Another day. Another week, and here we are again, friends. Starring at the weekend. Wanting to accomplish so much in such a short amount of time. Last weekend was a whirlwind! A fun whirlwind of excitement for my sweet cousin who will soon be a Mrs., a friend and mother-in-law who celebrated birthdays, a sleepover with my baby sister, an oil change, a market run and early morning dessert making and overall motherhood and keeping up with daily life. It was fun. It was exciting, but this weekend, I am looking forward to sweet Lo, catching up on my household chores that build, and spending time outdoors. Whew! Who is with me?

This Video moved me this week to tears. Who will stop the bullying?

Can I tell you which brand knocked it out of the park this week? bon appetit magazine. Nailed it! You are hip.

Make fun of me all you will. I am obsessed with the Royal Family! I want to hang out with Queen Mum who celebrated her 90th! Happy Birthday.

I am 100% crushing on this shirtdress.

As I mentioned above last weekend my little sister stayed overnight and with her she brought Adult Coloring Books. Now I am hooked! It was so peaceful and relaxing. We colored until 12:30 am. I know, rebels.

“Yeah, I hate it.” This Video is hysterical.

Well we made it! Have a super Friday. Much love.

Spring_BackwardsNHighHeels
Happy Friday! Let’s shout it from the rooftops. Shout it from our cars, with the windows down. Ummm, let’s not do either because winter has returned to the East Coast and snowfall is expected overnight into Saturday. Say Whaa?! Whaa! Is right. Oh, Mother Nature, you got your seasons mixed up. Just last week I snapped this beautiful tree in Spring bloom. Oh, I miss you Spring.

I was so excited for the weekend to possibly take Lo to a local Maple Syrup festival (mostly because this Momma wanted some sweet treats) but after seeing the forecast, yeah, that is not happening. Oh, bummer. Looks like Plan B is in action (by the way, I have no clue what Plan B is yet).

I love Coffee + Crumbs! You hear, that, Coffee + Crumbs? I love you!! This post moved me this week. Oh, woking Momma’s, you have a crazy place in my beating heart.

If you could have dinner and drinks with one celebrity, do you know who you would pick? I would choose, Melissa McCarthy! I love her. No, I adore her and I adore This Video of her and Jimmy Fallon Lip Sync Battling. Genius by the way!

It is Old Navy Super Cash time. Holla! Can I tell you what you should stop, drop and shop for right this second? This super comfortable t-shirt. Um, it is perfection! No lie. I have been on the hunt for the perfect t-shirt for many years it seems. I stumbled upon this one and love it so much that I am cashing in my Super Cash for more of this same t-shirt in different colors. I recommend if a comfort t-shirt is what you have been after.

Being the oldest kid is awesome. Just read This.

Bathing Suit season is just around the corner. Ugh. Dread. But, This Swimsuit is on point and super cute. I love the surprise coral.

All I have been hearing lately is Lemon Water? Remember when all you heard was Oil Pulling? Well This article shares some the benefits of adding Lemon Water to your diet.

Momma need a good laugh? Of course you do. Watch This Video.

I found my new favorite lip balm. This is it! And, it is coconut flavored.

Hello and Happy Friday, Friends! It has been awhile since I posted and shared my Weekend Links. Likes. Loves. I know you have been missing it, craving it, well, let me tell you, the suspense is over. Let’s dive in.

It is Super Bowl Weekend and this has always been on of my absolute favorite party appetizers. Touchdown! Actually, Lo and I could care less who wins. Honestly, I am committed to the commercials and half time show.

I never really appreciated pregnancy, birth and motherhood until I was able to experience all three, myself. Makes sense though, right? But, seriously, birth is pretty amazing and quite remarkable. I am in awe at how the human body works and then that painful, yet beautiful moment of birth, ahh. These pictures say it all.

Because I am slightly obsessed with Dermalogica skin care. It is amazing! Trust me. My favorite item, the Multivitamin Power Firm. I have seen such a difference in my fine lines and wrinkles. I promise, you, this product is amazing!

This Dubsmash is the absolutely best. Yes, the best, I tell ya.

My favorite type of friends… Really. Enough said.

I LOVE, LOVE, LOVE Pottery Barn Kids. I adore their Dollhouses,  sleeping bags, baby doll items and they have the best Easter Basket stuffers, which include these. My little water baby is going to be so stylish this summer.

Apparently we all have been pronouncing Zara wrong. Who knew?

Camp Patton is BACK! My favorite Blogger. She took some time off. I wish she didn’t. Now she is back and I am all like, “Ahhhh! Hey, Grace, Hey!”

Have a beautiful weekend, Friends!

Do you remember when Dove did that fabulous marketing campaign about beauty? This One. As a Marketing / PR professional I was in love. Now that I have added Momma to my resume, I balled like a baby after I watched This One from Ikea. Yes, I sat there eating my Oreos crying.

I LOVE the Huffington Post’s Community Kindness section. You hear so much backlash on today’s youth. How they are selfish, entitled, spoiled, etc. This Story is what I think of when I think of our youth. Don’t let the media full ya. There are BIG hearts out there. They do exist.

I cracked up when I read This! Could you seriously imagine? Checking into a Hotel with Pool Noodles, Painter’s Tape and Baby Gates? I mean I get it. Better safe than sorry. But, c’mon people! I feel like I turned into my parents after reading this. “Well, when I was growing up my parents never did that and I turned out just fine.” Oh, my gosh.

I use to say Summer was my favorite season but as I get older, I am pretty sure that Fall has my heart. I don’t know, maybe it is the festivals (many of which I am eyeing up for our calendar), the sweaters and scarves, hot chocolate and coffees, boots, pumpkins, or the holiday season which is just around the corner! I love Fall.

This week has been crazy!! So, crazy that I ended that last sentence with two exclamation points. I am so looking forward to the weekend and not really having anything on our agendas. I am thinking it will be a great weekend to get up early, stop by the local bakery for some homemade doughnuts (they make ones with an icing dipped in chocolate chips and I am all like, “get in my belly!”), grab a coffee and take Baby Lo for a morning stroll. To me this little scenario sounds just too perfect.

Some of my favorite Blogs that I follow have this one thing in common.  They share some of their favorite links from the week in a post going into the weekend. Since imitation is the highest form of flattery I decided to give it a try and see where it goes.

  1. A baby, a Mom and a Professor. This story happened and I can’t help but think the world would be better if we didn’t draw lines in the sand.
  2. This craziness happened this week and I just get so excited to watch things unfold.
  3. Dadbod… yeah it is a thing and then this article came along and the skies opened and everyone was like, “Ahhhhh!”
  4. I stumbled across this Etsy Shop. I seriously could get lost for days on Etsy. One click leads to another. I am eyeing up this shirt for Baby Lo and this headband!
  5. I can be a germaphobe. There I admitted it. This little invention for a pacifier. Genius! I am buying one, no, five!
  6. If you only click through to one of these, PICK ME! This video sums it up, Mommas. “Why it Sucks to be a Working Mom in America.”
  7. I pronounced a name wrong this week in a meeting. I so, needed this article on what to do after you screw up professionally.
  8. I am hoping to attempt this craft project this weekend. I have had all the supplies for weeks!
  9. I am loving this dress by Zara. It just speaks to me. It says, “Meet me where the waves meet the sand!”
  10. This gave me the biggest smile. We take so much for granted in life. These people are hearing for the first time and their emotions are beautiful.

Have a beautiful weekend!
