Fabulous Friday......

Looks like Fridays are the soonest i can get to the computer these days. Kids are down for a nap and i'm recouping from the morning for about an hour watch alittle GH... before i have to rev back up to finish tons of "unfinished" things that need to be done this weekend. Oh like....put up the CHRISTMAS TREE!!! I was so looking forward to this christmas. Little girl is old enough to know what it is about this year and now i have my baby boy. But with the house remodel...i have nothing done. I hate it. I WILL have a tree up but the end of the weekend! Still sewing away on gifts. But today is Fabulous Friday....so i have to tell you what is so fabulous about today. I scored 4 new pair of shoes for baby boy for only $20!! Oh yes couldn't resist. Local consignment shop was having a great sale. 2 pair of Angel shoes. 1 pair of brown squeaker shoes. And 1 pair of brown boots. All to big for the moment but will soon fit. :)

Mega Deals Monday........

Today was another consignment sale...the last of this season. Boy did i get some great deals!! I only took $50.00 with me this time. And i got soooooo many cute things for my kids. I got this gorgeous white knitted dress coat. Yes i do own the same coat but in Pink...hehe!! But i had wanted a white one aswell. Pink and brown giraffe dress (gymboree), Smocked pants outfit with a cute little snail design, Polkadot pant set, Black & White Pant Outfit (Fantasia Too) and several other cute outfits. Also picked up a buggy cart cover that is just adorable. And a dvd for my little girl that just LOVES Miss Spider. Goodies Galore!!!! :)

Fab Friday......

So glad it is Friday! Got the hubby home all weekend....and lots to do around the house. Yesterday i went out for the first time by myself with both babies. Useless to go shopping by myself with both of them cause by the time i put baby girl in the seat up front and then baby boy in the back in his carrier....there is no room for groceries...NONE!!! We went to my favorite place to shop these days...Super Target! It is such a treat for me and little bit cause as soon as we walk in the door we head straight for Starbucks and get a White Chocolate Mocha (decaf now that i'm breastfeeding) and a slice of banana nut bread for her. It makes her so happy. So we then take of to wonder the store while sipping my coffee and her indulging in her sweet treat. :) Right now Target is having a sale on pampers diapers...yippie for me! I grabbed the supper big box and put it in the only place i could find in the buggy...bottom. Then we went to the baby clothing section. Ok ladies...target is stepping up their clothing. I found so many absolutely adorable things for my little girl. Tops that are totally monogrammable, stripped sweaters with matching tights, polka dot jackets and a red pea coat that is just to cute. Then we mosied over to the toy section cause i'm going to have my christmas shopping done this year before Thanksgiving! Picked up a few things for both the kiddies. I had to pick up baby boy and stuff things in the buggy under his carrier. HA! So all in all it was a good "first" outing with them.

Goodies......

Can a girl have "TO MANY" clothes? I think so. Today i tried to tackle my daughters closet and it was a job. She had an abundance of summer clothing. In fact i'm struggling to make sure she wears all the cute things at least once. But now i'm wanting her to start wearing her new cute fall items. Yesterday i went to a local consignment sale looking for some fall and winter clothes for her and got a few things...i was alittle disappointed in what i found. Nothing at all like what i found for her at last years consignment sale. Anyway... i had already put back a "few" things last fall for her that i had got on sale and forgot about so that is good. There are 2 more sales that i want to hit up in the next few weeks though. Maybe i will find a few more things. I only found her 2 smocked items...but they are super cute!! I'm so in love with the christmas smocked dress i found it is brand new with tags. I'm a sucker for polkadots! :) I also found her 2 very cute dress coats for church. 1 pair of jeans. 2 Gymboree outfits that are perfect for fall. 1 reversable "Kellys Kids" dress that she is going to wear to the pumpkin patch. A Kelly's Kids Jumper that is perfect for monogramming. 1 white sweater that i'm going to have monogrammed too. And 5 Big boutique bows. Bright pink, light pink, white, black and pink and brown. That is it for the clothes. I did find 2 Great toys too! That is it. I wanted to find some shoes but no luck there. And absolutly nothing for baby boy! :(

Fall.....

Fall is in the air. The brisk morning air is so very nice. I seem to like fall...i love looking at new fall fashion. I love fall colors. I love Making my little girl a little Halloween outfit. Carving pumpkins, hay rids, corn field mazes. But then again there is something about fall that makes me sad...perhaps it is the ending of summer. Summer is my favorite season. And with fall...winter is just around the corner. I don't like the cold. The only good thing about winter is the Holidays and seeing family. Snow is only good for vacations! HA! I hate driving in snow. I hate grey winter days and being stuck indoors. Having to wear big bulky clothes. Just not as nice as summer i suppose. I'm a florida girl...born there....lived there for several years. To me it just isn't christmas without putting up your christmas tree in shorts and flip flops...HA!!
