Friday's Fancies: Wild in White! and random updates

Just where does the time go???

 And just like that two weeks have passed, Memorial Day, my birthday, a week long family visit...craziness!

I'm pretty sure that after you're 30, all the birthdays kinda blend together, and mine was a blend of this:

Eating A LOT, including the best cupcakes ever, seriously, if you are ever in the area, they are just as good (maybe better) than Sprinkles! And adorable to boot.
And finally seeing The Great Gatsby, which let's be honest, I would see another fifty times just for the houses and fashion:

I thought it was pretty spectacular.

We even squeezed in a little fishing on Memorial Day and I just loved this picture of my little man with his "trophy fish":


And since we're into full on summer over in these parts, you know I had to jump into the whites for Friday's Fancies!

Note the Gatsby inspired jewels...what can I say? I'm on a kick. And the 3 ring should be my "push present" here in October...3 kids and 3 has always been my lucky number, it's a sign! (c;


Wild in White





So there's your dose of mash up madness...I have no idea when I'm actually going to get back to posting like a normal human being...*sigh*...

But here's hoping, right?

Happy Weekend!!!

A Whole Lot of News...

So this has been a WHOPPER of a week in our family...in fact, I'm not really sure we are going to have so much big news in so few days ever again (and boy am I totally glad about it! #stressedtothemax)

Last Friday night we got the much anticipated news about the Husband's BAR results:

And holy *BLEEP*, they make you wait, and WAIT, and *WAIT* for those fricken' results! But we are so relieved and now it's just on to finding a job. No problem right??? (bwahahahahahaha)

And then on Tuesday came big news #2:


Yup, Baby #3 has officially become Baby Girl...which was quite a shock for me because I was *certain* that she was going to be a boy...why? I have no idea, but I figured I had a fifty-fifty chance...turns out I'm terrible at gambling.

I'm totally overjoyed to be welcoming another little lady into our family and her big sister feels like she won a contest...apparently her prayers are stronger than her older brother's (c; 

In other news (the not-so-big news), Mother's Day was a success and my vote is to have it every Sunday, what do you think??? I even got to dress up like an adult #majorscore


And since I just really can't pass up a chance to do a Friday's Fancies post (especially when it's about *stripes*!), I'll throw in this little diddy about what I want to be wearing:


And whilst on the subject of stripes, these gorgeous kicks would make my day:

If you've made it to the end of this randomness, I salute you! And bid you a marvelous weekend...

Friday's Fancies: Weekend Wear!

Thank the powers that be, it's the weekend!!! This one has been a booty-kicker (aren't they all???). 

I'm totally ready to kick it in some laid back duds...with a cold drink in my hand and nothing to do but sit pool side (c; 

So reality check, *that* (see above daydream) is not happening, but kickin' it chillaxin' style is TOTALLY happening.

I saw these sandals and I'm just about as in love as in love can be...they are so cute, they're supposed to be UBER comfy, and *oh-em-gee* does it get any cuter than those little wing-shaped buckles???

And no weekend wear ensemble is complete without a parrot. They just scream "vacation", don't you think? 



And perhaps I'm just into red because I've been obsessing over these Red Velvet Brownies...*SO* happening for my Mother's Day treat.

Lust List: Birthday Edition

Apparently, I've got a thing for pastels lately.

And super girly and lady-like...what is going on with me???? (c;

I'm pretty sure I might die without these shoes, though...so it's a good thing birthdays are a free pass to ask for whatever you want, right? 

Plus, shoes are one of the few things that you can wear no matter how large your midsection gets (c;



So sorry for the days off, but we spent the weekend partyin' it up with the cousins, so as you might imagine, that gets exhausting (for mommy)!

But darn it if they aren't cute:

Friday's Fancies: May Flowers!

April showers are alright, I guess...but MAY FLOWERS!?! My Fave.

Don't you think I could still fit a pregnant belly into this outfit??? Totes.

And I just can't get over the lovely floral of those shorts...especially in that lovely sunny shade of yellow (c:


Funky Florals





May is pretty much my favorite month EVER...Mother's Day *and* my birthday...all wrapped up in a month that is usually fantastic weather and sometimes they even make my birthday a national holiday (yeah, I guess it's Memorial Day technically, but when it falls on my birthday...).

And to top it all off, this year we'll also be finding out if we're having a wee princess or wee prince joining our family. 

WHEW!

Crazy month, right???

This calls for more fabulous floral inspiration:

Gold Rush

Is it just me, or does Tory do gold *REALLY* freakin' well???

I was just drooling lusting perusing the shoe section on the Tory Burch site and I was suddenly a GOLD DIGGER. 

You're going to buy me these shoes? I'm yours. (c; 



And no, unfortunately for me, I'm in no way being compensated for this, I'm just got a bad case of the gimmies...

Give the lady what she wants

Did Mother's Day sneak up on anyone else this year???

I mean, *HOLY CANOLI*, it's in a week and a half! I haven't even started dropping hints to the hubster about my wishlist!!! (c;

And hubby (even though I know you're not reading this), these will all do very nicely. Thanks in advance. 



Anything earth-shattering that I missed???

I'm sure I'll think up more things later...
