Thought Bubbles...

Bath & Body Works no longer sells my night time body splash. It got discontinued. That happens every time I fall in love with one of their scents. Every. Time…

So happy that the Real Housewives of Atlanta and Beverly Hills is back…

This week has worn me out emotionally and mentally. So glad it's almost over…

We might be walking in the Veteran's Day parade again. Gotta get outfits together for that…

I have had so much Dr. Pepper this week…

Tonight was "watch night" at Savannah's dance class. I'm not sure how much she likes dance but she looks cute doing it…

My big girl camera died five minutes into class. I knew that was going to happen...

The older I get the more I realize that the phrase, "Less is more.", applies to more than just makeup…

 I need a pedicure. And some girl friend time…

I think I want to dye some of the front pieces of my hair a la Tia Mowry-Hardrict

(c)

Or maybe I should just do a weave…

I'm not here for some of the personalities I've come into contact with lately. Some of these SAHMs are too much. And they shouldn't be…

There's a never worn before black maxi dress with a thigh high split hanging in my closet. Might have to break that out on our next date night. He ain't ready...

I have no idea what shoes to wear with it though...

"Bitch" has been on the tip of my tongue more times than I'd like to admit this week. Thank God for progress…

My Mother in Law is coming to visit this month…

I need some real sushi. From a real Japanese restaurant…

I went to NYC for my 25th Birthday. A year later I found out I was pregnant with Savannah…

Which reminds me that we were living in DC then. Miss that place with a passion…

Am I the only one excited about The Best Man Holiday & Morris Chestnut…

I think I'm in love with Andy Cohen…

Savannah didn't want to do somersaults at dance tonight. She said she didn't want to mess up her hair…

My teething baby needs some sleep training…

I've been saying, "I'm not here for (fill in the blank)" a lot lately…

I feel like Scandal is all over the place this season…

I really want a tulle skirt…

(c)

I can't believe it's 10 and I'm still up in front of this computer…

My husband is asleep on the couch downstairs. I do not feel like going down there to wake him up…

Andy Cohen just came on. I wasn't kidding. I love him…

I really need to start working out…

This is a link up…

Baby M's Many Faces...

One day I was taking pics of all of Baby M's expressions. I thought it would be fun to make a little something with them. So funny! 

Love all his little faces, haha!!!

Chic Link Up: Face to Face Fridays

Welcome to the first edition of the Face to Face Fridays blog hop. I created this hop because I enjoy doing my video diary posts. More than that, I have enjoyed watching videos on some of my favorite blogs.  I thought this hop would be a fun way to find more Moms who vlog.

Feel free to link up your post that contains your video or the link to your video on YouTube. I can't wait to see what everyone is talking about this week!

My videos aren't that fancy but as I learn more about iMovie I'm hoping to step my game up!

31 Days 31 Photos 31 Stories of My Favorite Things

Happy Friday! I'm participating in the My Favorite Things photo challenge. This photo challenge was created by the writer of the blog Inspired By Beatrice Clay. She writes a beautiful blog about truth and pretty things. I also follow her on all social media and her Pinterest is to DIE FOR! You will swoon and drool and gasp over her findings. Please join me in this photo challenge. Leave your Instagram name in the comments if you decide to play. Visit her blog for all the details on the challenge. She's giving away goodies to some of the lucky players.

Day One: Self Portrait

Here I am in all of my fresh faced splendor. I don't normally wear make up to play dates. Mainly because it's over 100 degrees here in San Antonio every day. It's too hot to have your face beat to the heavens. So. This is the real me with a splash of an Instagram filter. 

Day Two: Color (Black)

I can not express how much I love the color black. I gravitate towards it whenever I'm shopping. I have to make a conscious effort to choose colors and prints. Even though I love color I just can't escape my love for black. Black with gold accessories. I could wear it everyday. I have even considered having an all black Fall/Winter. Just because I love it so much. We'll see. The jury is still out on that. I don't want my husband to think I'm going through a dark phase. I might just do it.

Video Diary 7232013
