holding hands

That love shirt is from Old Navy. I legit love it. It is one of the softest most comfy shirts I own.  I was so mad though because I by accident dried it and it shrunk so now I have to wear it with a tank top underneath.  I hate when I shrink stuff. One time I "borrowed" (I kind of took it from her closet when I was dog sitting once and planned on just wearing it once and putting it back...I know I suck) this dress from my BFF L and I wore it and it was the prettiest most unique dress ever...well I accidentally SHRANK it of course.  I literally thought it was the end of our friendship...thank god L is so understanding she forgave me and we are still friends.  but srsly what was I even thinking. I was not a good friend.  Sorry L, you are the best.  I really don't do that anymore or EVER again after that.  Promise you can still lend me stuff, and I won't "borrow" it and shrink it.  alskdfjasdkf. And for real why do I STILL do this to myself.  You would think I would learn.  C is srsly the cutest.  She is so cuddly and she loves holding my hand.  I literally almost cried today because she kept saying "hand Mommy, peas?" the girl kills me with cuteness.  I literally do not know what I did before she came along...oh wait I do: I was lazy, didn't have fabulous arm muscles, I never went to playgrounds, and I didn't think I needed some little person to hold my hand and give me sweet messy kisses on the reg.

pumpkin patch

What a whirlwind weekend! I had to work super late Friday night so Saturday morning the hubs let me sleep in it was so great.  That day we went to the pumpkin patch it was a perfect day, except we lost track of time and didn't get home until like 7...which is usually bath time for C but she had dinner then and apparently she was up until 10 yelling and laughing.  Oops. Oh well it was a perfect day...my friend J took most of the pumpkin pics! Then Sunday morning the hubs let me sleep in AGAIN and we went to a few playgrounds and just soaked up the beautiful weather.  I am going to have a hard time with Monday after this weekend.  

Lawn mower guys

This week has been hard. I finally just came out and said to the hubs and two of my BFF's what I have been feeling recently.  I didn't want to tell them because all three of them have so much going on.  But I have to say it felt good to get it off my chest.  Thank goodness its Friday.  We went to this open gym to play this morning and I thought for SURE it would tire C out but its like whenever I TRY to tire her out it doesn't work.  Every Friday without fail she won't nap.  It is like she knows it bothers me and she knows today I am the tiredest.  I know she really doesn't but still I NEED A BREAK!!! She is in her room yelling "NO NO NOOOOO" and I am sure she is wagging her finger too...the hubs taught her to do that to our dog when she is bad but now she does it all the time...reallll great. Anyways.  I went to Nordstrom Rack yesterday and got so many cute things! Its always hit or miss for me there but I found C the cutest lace dress/tunic for 8 dollars!! I literally did a happy dance in the store because it was the only size left and it happened to be her size! Also I wish I would have known vests were coming back into style, I would have kept everything I had from high school.  I got a cute one yesterday at Old Navy yay! On our morning walk yesterday these two lawn mower guys told me I looked beautiful.  I thought maybe they were making fun of me because I legit looked awful, I had no make up on, mom uniform, SLIPPERS, and my hair was greasy and up.  I told them thank you and went on my way...but it really made my day.  Thank you random lawn mower guys.  I am so ready for the weekend.  

wednesday

It is such a pretty fall day! I love the colors of fall.  This morning the hubs left for work super early like 6 a.m. early and I didn't even know he had left until I woke up from my cat jumping on my face...rude. I had some WEIRD dreams last night, like involving the mall of america, miley cyrus, and michael jackson.  I sometimes wonder what goes through my head at night because I almost always have really weird dreams.  Last night we had our mom's night at my friend J's house, it was so so nice to get out of class and unwind with them, enjoying cookies and tea was also super relaxing.  Such a great idea to do every month.  I am a huge believer in having "me time" so this once a month mom time is just amazing for my soul! Today we didn't do much, C woke up at 7:30 and wanted to go back to bed by 9...I am mean and didn't let her but I just put her down for a nap and she PTFO so I guess maybe she was a little tired...we played outside most of the morning.  Wednesdays we usually just have mommy/daughter time since most of our baby friends are at music class (I am a bad mom and forgot to sign C up oops) but it has turned into one of my favorite days of the week.  I don't have class until 7 so all day is just ours.  

1,2,3

1.) So the other day the hubs went tailgating and to the football game with his dad and me and C were together all day again. I decided that it was acceptable to eat chocolate cake on the front porch.  It was one of my best decisions all day other than wearing a scarf.  I LOVE chocolate cake. In case it wasn't obvious from the title of this blog (which I am thinking about changing...but I don't know what yet).

2.) After the hubs got back I went out with some of my girls, it was a much needed night out and we had a blast.  We ran into crazy med school and we were legit wearing the EXACT same thing. Down to our shoes. It was the weirdest thing ever, and totally not planned. Crazy.  

3.) I have been SO stressed out lately. Like getting so anxious and worried about school, running, life.  I broke down last night and literally cried for like an hour to the hubs.  He kind of understood, but really I am so glad I finally told him how I was feeling.  I hate feeling weird/anxious so it was nice to vent.  Waking up with a puffy face wasn't as fun but whatevs.  Thank goodness for friends, family, and chocolate (and wine, can't leave that one out).

coloring

The other day C woke up early from her nap and the hubs was working late.  The night before my bff K brought over some craft things for her, so we got out the bag and started coloring.  Really what C liked the best was just taking off and putting back on the marker caps...oh well it entertained her for a good half an hour while I ate lunch. 

Bangs

I was out with my friend on our weekly weds night drink, and we were talking about hair...(along with the fact of the day before talking to crazy med school about it too) and I said I really wanted to try bangs but didn't know if I could actually do it.  Well the next day before class I did it.  I got bangs. It was so not like me, usually I chicken out.  I really really like them though, it took awhile to get used to but now I love them!
