Today I am linking up with Karli from September Farm.
One. Girls night. Last night was AMAZING. I finally got a girls night in with two of my favorite ladies. We went to happy hour and indulged in some wine and snacks. It was much needed and so excited that we already planned our next one...next Wednesday. Gotta soak up as much girlfriend time in as possible because one of the ladies is moving to Oklahoma in a few short months. I don't know what I am going to do without her here. Guess my family has a trip to Oklahoma in the near future!
Two. We booked a trip to Mexico! I may have already told you this, but I can't remember and I don't want to look through my post feed (so tired). The girls will finally get to meet their great great aunt and see Puerto Vallarta. The trip is still 6 months away, but it gives us something big to look forward to. Now we have to get the girls passports, get them walking and get a new stroller before then. Easy peasy, right? Any tips you all have for me with traveling with children to a foreign country?

Three. Date night. R and I are planning a date night and we think we want to do the annual Fantasies in Chocolate. We haven't been to one in three years (last year I was super pregnant, the year before we were on our honeymoon), but it is such a great event. You indulge on everything chocolate. Foods to drinks. Plus there is dancing, a silent auction and hanging out with friends. Since I don't want to buy a new dress (theme is Bohemian Circus), I thought I would rent something on Rent the Runway. Now I don't know if this is with the theme or not, but I just love the elegance of it. What do you think?
I love the lace, black with nude underneath and the elegance of it. Any other gowns on that site you think might work?
Four. Wednesday I have a couple biopsies on some moles. My moles changed a lot during pregnancy (which happens), but some of them are more alarming. Two of my moles will just be shaved off and sent away, but one will be cut out. They would rather be safe than sorry. The one that is being cut out is on my stomach and has changed color and size (by 2mm) in 6 months. So please oh please let them all be benign. And please if you haven't had your yearly check up on your moles, schedule an appointment ASAP. And there is your PSA for the day.
Five. Halloween Costumes. I finally pulled the trigger on getting the girls Halloween costumes. I searched all over and everything was so expensive for how much use the girls are going to get out of it. All of the costumes I wanted were around $30 plus per costume. And I didn't want to pay that when they will wear it at daycare (and some of these they wouldn't want to wear all day) and on Halloween night. They were so cute though. Next year we will get them some big elaborate costumes when they can walk and enjoy it more. This year, we went more classic and got them something they can wear all day. Stay tuned for the reveal.
Enjoy your weekend all!
Lots of people have asked what I'm going to dress my baby up in for Halloween this year. She will barely be 1 month old by then so I'm like uhh...I bought a tshirt with a jack o lantern face on it. I don't see the point in spending money on a costume for babies that can't walk/trick or treat!!
ReplyDeleteExactly. My MIL bought the girls some Halloween shirts so they can wear those leading up to Halloween. Congrats on the new baby girl!!
DeleteThat dress is amazing! I did RTR for a black tie event we attended earlier this year and I was so happy with the decision. Yay for taking the girls to Mexico! I always think it's hilarious to have the teeny, tiny baby photos on the passports (especially since they are valid for several years!). Love it!
ReplyDeleteI can't wait to see how they come out. I saw a friends one and you can see her parents hands in it holding the baby up. So cute!! And I am definitely going for the dress. Especially after pondering it all weekend.
DeleteAh I can't wait to see the Halloween costumes! No doubt they'll be adorable. Also, LOVE that dress. You'll be a classic beauty. Great choice! And yay for your trip! Always fun to have something to look forward to. Hope you guys have a relaxing weekend!
ReplyDeleteOur weekend was so lazy and it was the best! I am hoping the girls costumes get here in time because they haven't shipped out yet. Fingers crossed.
Deleteoh! I love that lace dress <3 swooning
ReplyDeleteThank you! Hoping it looks as good on me as it does in the customer photos.
DeleteLove that dress!!! Sounds like a fun evening. Can't wait to see what you decided for the girls. It'll be adorable I'm sure.
ReplyDeleteIt really is a fun evening. Plus an evening out with my husband is in order! Been way too long. Can't wait to see yours in their Halloween costumes too!
