Things I love Thursday!

It's been a REALLY long time since I've done one of these but, I'm excited to share what I'm loving this week (& beyond!)



Is there anything more wonderful than unloading a full dryer of soft, and sweet smelling baby clothes? I think not. I was doing laundry the other day, and now that I have two girls there are even more little pink things to wash and I LOVE it!! Plus, I'm convinced that Dreft puts some sort of chemical in their soap that triggers a woman's hormones because there is something pretty hypnotizing about that damn smell!! I may even start washing my own clothes with it!



 (Found this photo on https://www.pinterest.com/ I know they aren't baby clothes but, the picture was too lovely to pass up!)


I LOVE Miranda Lambert.

But that is nothing new, I've been in love with Miranda since her Nashville Star days and I've posted about my love for her (&Blake) several times on the blog. Have you seen her lately? Homegirl has been looking AH-MAZING!!! Not that she didn't before, you see, my favorite thing about Miranda (besides everything! ha) is that no matter what size she is, she rocks it! She promotes a healthy self image for women and isn't afraid to show the world just how comfortable she is in her own skin. I love that! In the recent issue of People: Country Edition which you can find here: http://www.people.com/people/article/0,,20800011,00.html Miranda talks about her weight loss and says:
                 
"I've always been happy with myself, and Blake loves me whatever shape I am. But at 30, you start to think about taking care of yourself more."


That really resonated with me since I'll be turning the big 3-0 in January and now that I've just had my second child, it's becoming even more important to take care of myself. I've even begun my 30 things to do while 30 bucket list which includes "Get in the best shape EVER!" and you best believe THIS girl is on my inspiration board!

P.S. This is my goal, to get in shape but keep my curves! Plus, I'm pretty sure "Please don't lose that butt " was written in Chads wedding vows or was it a Sir Mix-A-Lot song? Either way, GOAL!!


I LOVE Scandal!!!

Okay, I'm more like obsessed with Scandal...like in, can't live without watching an episode of Scandal. I'll admit it, I have a problem. It's because of scenes just like this:

 
The chemistry between these two is so palpable and I mean, damn, is there anything sexier than a man who builds you a freaking house? I think NOT! The finale is tonight which means that Tiffany will not be accepting phone calls, texts or talking in the house from the hours of 9-10! lol
 
 
Till next week!!

Happy Due Date Day!





I was supposed to have a baby today but she obviously, had other plans. Instead, we took Ava to her one month checkup where we learned that she is above average in every percentile if we go by her adjusted age and in the 90th percentile for height and weight if we go by her actual age which is 5 weeks, and 5 days! Little baby nugget is growing!! She's also developing some fat rolls on her legs which EEK!! I am totally obsessed with...grow baby fat, GROW! :)



I love her little side eye peeking at me as if to say "Um, go away Mom, I'm sleeping!" haha

Dem legs though right? Why are babies so delicious? ;)

I wanted to just check in today (I told you that I was horrible at this whole blogging regularly thing!) but, I promise more this week! Anyways, I hear my toddler calling...it's time to go outside and play! Till next time!
