fishtail braid.



again, it's blake.
but i did my hair kind of like this
at work today and i got so many compliments on it.
however, my front braid was a fishtail, but
nevertheless, everyone loved it. as did i.
plus it's easy and took me about five minutes.


(this is what i want it to look like. i love it. a lot.)

Carseat

I can't even tell you how ready I am for a forward facing car seat.
I'm sure L is too.
We're still waiting for L to gain some weight.
In the meantime, does anyone have a favorite forward facing car seat?

Gift Idea: Church Backpack

This is such fun gift. A Backpack full of fun things to keep young ones busy at church. Books, crayons, paper, small toys, a small baby doll, fruit snacks ...



The best part of the whole gift though, is the poem that came with it. My sister-in-law Lacey is such a great writer:

The mommies are crying,
the old men are snoring.
Let's face it ... for one year-olds,
church can be boring!
You're not still a baby,
You don't slee all day --
but not yet the age to join nursery to play.
"So what in the world will I do?" you might ask.
Don't worry, your cousies will help you and fast!
We've packed you a bag of our favorite stuff,
to help make your Sundays -- not quite as tough!
We hope you love princesses,
babies, and more ...
crayons and stickers and fruit snacks galore!

Dazzling Decorations


I can't believe Halloween is just around the corner.
I don't know that I can say it's my favorite holiday,
but it's right up there.
Every year when I start seeing the Halloween stuff come out ...
it gets me really in the mood for fall and costumes, and scary decorations.

I love this spread in the October
Good Housekeeping ...

In my opinion, a little bling makes everything better!
I had fun putting this Halloween Relief Society party together a couple years ago.
Most everything came from the Dollar Store.

Socks? Really?



Socks? Really?
who would have thought it would come back?
but it's back in full swing.
whether it be with sandals, over tights or knee highs
rockin' socks will be the way to accessorize for fall.
so, you tell me, do you love it or hate it?
