Move Over Gaga......Harlow is the new "TreNdSetTeR"

Tonight, I got a load of laundry out of the dryer and of course my little helper ran over to start "folding clothes". Usually, she just starts grabbing clothes and shakes each one in the air and then throws them on the ground. Instead, tonight she had another agenda. She grabbed my black shirt....walked straight into the bedroom where the full length mirror is...and started draping the shirt over her all different ways...talking to herself the whole way through. She was so indecisive it was hilarious.
I cherish these moments so much. It is the silliest things about her that make me so proud!!! To my little "trendsetter"....I love you. Good night sweet baby!

"HA-LOW"

Wanted to share a video of her being silly and saying her name. Everytime she gets in front of a mirror she just says her name over and over again and kisses herself. So funny. Happy Friday Everyone!

This Is The Stuff ...

Have you ever just had one of those days or weeks where everything that could go wrong...does? That was me this week. It seemed like something happened everyday. So, in honor of this crazy week..this song fits perfectly. Literally!!!



And, I am not kidding....This has all pretty much happened to me recently.....



This is a picture from yesterday. I was getting samples out of my storage unit and went to lock it back up and my key broke off inside...NOW WHAT??? Lucky for me, I have a husband who is handy with a tool that can break the lock off so that I can put a new one on.

I should add that I also lost my phone this weekend at the rodeo (luckily) it was recovered....but that day I was completely lost without it.

And the most fitting part of the song is "Going 45 in a 35....sirens and fines.." Yup, that was me last month. I got a ticket for going exactly that. I am such a rebel. hahahhaa....sorry Schertz Police Department.




But, "...In the middle of my little mess....I forget how big I am blessed...because this is the stuff you use!" I can just take a deep breath and think about what really matters...like this one....



and this....


oh...and this...for a couple more months :)

Let's Rodeo...San Antonio!

UUGGGHHHH...The weekend is over already! Boo. This weekend we had my dad and Lori in town. They spent the day saturday with Harlow while Waylen and I went with our friends Brian and Patti to the rodeo.

I always feel like a kid being around all the rides...and FOOOOOOODDDD. Ugh. Who doesn't love carnival food? We had fajitas and Waylen got some bbq baked potato contraption...so weird. Then for dessert we had FUNNEL CAKES!! Yippeee...my favorite. Of course, these days they have all sorts of other fried desserts so the boys tried some out. Waylen chose the fried twinkie and Brian had a fried oatmeal cream pie. I say "yuck"...they say "yummm".

The rodeo part was fun...except when they hurt those poor baby animals. We were on the 2nd row....so close that a few times we had to wipe dirt(praying it wasn't poop) off of us when the horses ran by. After the rodeo we watched Easton Corbin in concert. The day was great until the ride home....I left my phone there...IN MY SEAT. Luckily, a police man picked it up when Waylen called it and he turned it in to the lost and found. Thank you Mr. Policeman. I felt completely lost without it. So glad to have it back.
That night we went to a new restaurant called The Urban Taco. I thought it was pretty yummy....but not a place for Miss H. She was beyond bratty and I will chalk it up to being tired ,but it was border-line embarassing..... we still love her though. Now it is sunday...which means back to work tomorrow. Hope everyone had a great weekend. Happy Early Valentine's Day!

I added a picture of Miss H....thought I should document her first "Oreo Experience".... I guess we can say she is a "fan"!!!

My New Digs

Well...What do you think? Isn't it awesome? I know I am a little biased, but I am extremely excited about how cute it turned out.

So, one of my 2011 goals was to start fresh with my blog. Over the past six months I have been quite the avid blog follower. I never knew there were so many great blogs on home design, fashion, and "mommy stuff" out there. So I knew I wanted to jump into that, but I didn't really know where to start. First, I thought I would start a completely different blog separate from my one about Harlow to discuss new fashion, things I love, home projects, etc. After thinking about that I decided....that it was TOTALLY NOT REALISTIC. So I opted for updating this one with a catchy name and design which means some new fun posts will be added too.

I wish I could take complete credit for this, but it all goes to the lovely girls at www.smittenblogdesigns.blogspot.com. They worked with me on everything from the the design, color scheme, to the overall idea of the blog. They were amazing and I cannot say enough good things about them. Jacquelline was my designer and she was super sweet and so easy to work with. So if you like it, make sure you go check them out. They also have some cute premade things too!
