This doesn't even matter

I've been house cleansing all day.  I love it so much.  But it makes me want to buy and do a bunch of other cool projects & stuff...which is completely counter productive.  My mind has been all things moving today.  Pricing garage sale items, packing a box (actually I finished my college scrapbooks just so I could finally pack them up. HAH!), and wasting time looking at diy projects/home inspirations thinking of my home "one day."  I would say I'm 85% excited to move, and 15% scared.  But, I am also 100% ready!  Actually I'm pretty darn excited to move, but some of that excitement translates into nervous fear because, let's be honest, I am going where I have no friends, and will have 2 children.  (and even scarier, for real, is that winter lasts forever there!!)  What the heck am I supposed to do with a 2 year old who be/already is cray-cray...and a newborn?  But oh well, I'm made to do this business and millions of other women have done it, so I stop the worry/self-doubt NOW.

But while we're here, let me just say I found a dream diaper bag.  Gosh, why do I get all dreamy about a dumb bag (just like my stroller!!!  Which I do love, thanks.).  I had the same brand, plain black diaper bag when I had Wade, but really I used it for maybe like 4 months.  Truth be told I still have it and would love to be rid of it, it's in mint condition if you're interested ;).  The appeal of this lady is that it's CUTE and could be seen as a purse.  But for this poor mama, the price tag is just not working.  Maybe I'll make enough from my garage sale to buy it?  HAhaha that is sad.  If I could but make a mere $50 profit from my garage sale...  I don't care, just tryin' to rid myself of extra CRAP.
There she is.  A "limited edition".  The saddest, saddest part of all is that I check Amazon like everyday to see if the price has gone down.  Here's a fun fact:  It goes back up to normal price Friday night and all through the weekend.  Monday it lowers by like $13.  That's a LOT of money to me, people.  So I'm just sayin' be good online shoppers and check prices through time!  I saw this bag at a local boutique, otherwise I wouldn't like her so much from this picture.  The red zipper tape is what really made me fall.  I doth love red.  Just like these shoes:

 I found them for $16 at Ross.  It was love.   I wore them in NY.  My right foot was injured after wearing them, so I knew that they were too small.  (My right foot is bigger than left)  So they were gifted to my dear sister, Jami.  Now I can find them online for $54.  Why is everything like $50??  But the point is, if anyone sees shoes like this, they are Reef and called "Bella Costas"--They are like walking on a cloud of comfort.  (The pain was from too long of a foot, mind you)  You should buy them if you find them at Ross for a deal like I did.

I apologize for an extremely materialistic and ridiculous post.  I can't lie, I think about these 2 things everyday.  Shameful.

To perk up my heart and spirit and remember that these things matter not in the least, I show you this:

My two very handsome boys.  Gosh.  (And cousin Ivie)
 I am really quite excited to add another boy to the bunch.  We do have a good time.  And just for the record, I have an extremely good looking husband.
Lucky Wade got his own ice cream cone with his Abuela last week!  We had a great visit with Susan.

Ok bye!  Maybe I'll be more interesting next time.

  1. Oh, winter doesn't always last forever like it is this year. (Forget that I'm telling you we're supposed to have 5 inches of snow by tomorrow night.) Last year Cami wore shorts on her birthday in March because it was 80 degrees, but that's not normal either. I'll come visit you and we can be friends! :) And for real, what kind of bag is that because apparently we have the same diaper bag philosophy and I'm so getting a new one (when I find an awesome deal) before the next babe comes along!

    1. CLARE! Thanks for the encouragement :) I will have to remember to defer to you in my frozen-tundra woes!! And the bag is a Skip Hop Duo, Limited Edition French Stripe. Really, I think I paid just as much for the plain black one I have currently, so I don't know why I'm complaining so much. It's a great bag, and this one has a smooth fabric overlay, so liquids wipe off easily. But it still looks great!!!! It's normally $65, but on amazon it's like $51. Great deal. I just have to save my pennies :)

  2. I loved this post. For your dear personality expressed in it and the pictures (you forgot yourself). But I laughed out loud when I read "ok bye!" haha I don't know why. Maybe because I heard you saying it.
