Etsy Love

So, I just did some business with an absolutely FAB-ulous girl from Esty. Her name is Cary, and her Esty shop is called One Little Monkey.

She sells hair accessories for the little ones! And OH EM GEE! They are just the cutest little things I have ever seen! 

I purchased these ones from her, and I'm so happy that I did. I can't wait for Chloe to wear each and every one of them!

Aren't they just the cutest things ever! I love them, and I love Carey for sending them to me! I'm so excited to be able to dress any little outfit up with these adorable clips!! I'm a total feen for all things for the hair for my little girl. And these are just perfect. And the best part of all....like some clippies that you buy, they have the felt clip....well, those don't stay in Chloe's hair. Her hair is very fine and thin. But she has a lot. (she's got her daddy's hair). But Carey's clippies. The clip part is metal. So it stays put! It's amazing! I love it!

So, what you should do, if you have a little girl...go to Carey's Etsy Shop and buy some of her beautiful clippies! I promise you will not be disappointed!! They are GREAT!

FAN-Tastic Friday

So, this is just going to be another one of those randomness posts. My original post for today was going to be me and my makeup, and pictures of how I apply and the products that I use. But all week I've been forgetting to take pics of myself doing my makeup in the morning. But, tonight...I'm going out. So, IF I remember, I'm going to take pics of me putting my "night time" makeup on...and that's actually more fun then my "work" makeup. LOL!! So, I think that will turn out better.
On another note, I think we might have found our house. We walked through it on Tuesday....and then took the FIL back last night. There were a few things he questioned in the basement, but all else was pretty much good. It's got an eat in kitchen, a dining room, a really cute living room with a fireplace. A nice little family room. And upstairs is 3 bedrooms. The master is nice size with 2 decent size closets. No, it's not a walk in like I originally wanted, but oh well. We will deal. The master bath is nice too. Nice size stand up shower. And the 2nd bath up stairs is really nice size too. And the kitchen is really nice!!!!! I think that and the living room might be my favorite parts of the house. LOL! So, we might be putting an offer in on it today. I'll keep ya'll posted. We have a time table here....March 10th is the day we are moving out of our house. House or no house. We have renters that are planning on being moved in by the 17th. I can't believe after 6 years of living here, we're going to be saying goodbye. It's just crazy to me. We have so many memories here. This was our first house together. And our baby girl has spent the first year and half of her life here. So it's going to be weird to not be living here anymore. But on a good note, we will have really great renters! They are very professional, young people. And I know that they are going to take great care of our home. So that's making this all the better for me.
So, I'm going our for my girl Mallory's birthday tonight, and I'm super excited! I'm ready to just let go and dance my ass off!!! It's much needed right now. I've been like totally craving a nice night out with my girls. So, it's gonna be good. I hope to take lots of pictures that I can blog with for next week.
So, wish us luck on this house thing and hope that if we put an offer in, that it goes through!
Thanks Loveys!

What's In My Purse?

I got this idea from Heather over at Gurlee Girrl...and I just thought that this was a good idea. We all know that girls purses can weight anywhere from 5-100 pounds...(jk) (maybe). So, I thought we could take a look and see what's weighing down mine....so here we go!

1. McD's Coups
2. The wallet
3. Envelope full of coupons
4. check book
5. Weight Watchers Weight tracker
6. extra nose rings
7. Dayquil
8. Lottery money for work pool
9. My glasses
10. Burts Bees
11. Lighter
12. Pen
13. Nail File
14. tampon
15. baggie of bobby pins and hair ties
16. extra SD cards
17. perfume pen
18. iPod
19. Weight Watchers Calculator
20. Change purse
21. pictures
22. misc cards
23. gum
24. bandaids
25. And, that random one up there without a #, that's my keys with my work badge.

So, there you have it! That's what I carry around everyday of my life...it's heavy! LOL! And I also carry another bag with life planner, Kindle, weight watchers books and an extra sweater to work....so, yea! I'm the bag lady!

And if you catch me on a random day, I might have a binky or 2, a lovey, some toys...whatever makes my girl happy. 
So, I think we'd all like to know...what's in YOUR purse??

SO WHAT! Wednesday!

Linking up with Shannon Dew for another week of SO WHAT!


This week I'm saying so what if:

• I bought a Kindle.
• I'm counting calories AND weight watchers points...
• Chloe HATED being out in the snow
• We have a moving out date set....but no house. Plan B will probably go into effect...
• I'm excited for moving just to be able to clean stuff out and throw stuff away!
• I take the time in the morning when Chloe's eating breakfast to catch up on my blogs and post mine on twitter.
• Sometimes I dress Chloe a little too nice for Day Care. I don't care! We only live once...and girl has a TON of clothes!
• Only reason I was over my calories on Monday was because of a Strawberry cheese cake pudding cake....GAH! It was SOOOOO worth it!

I think that's about it for me. Go over to Life After I "Dew" and link up with Shannon!!

First Real Snow!!!

We got about an inch and a half of snow Friday night. I was SUPER excited to take Chloe out and play in the snow for the first time!! I had bought her a new snow suit and all!! She was all ready to go! So I though...LOL! So, Saturday afternoon, we got her up from her nap. Got her all ready to go with her snow pants and matching jacket. She got some new snow boots....she was all set. Got her all dressed, and well....she did not want anything to do with it! She was NOT having it. I'm not sure if it was the cold, or if it was just that she had just woken up from her nap, or if she was hungry...idk. But she wouldn't let me put her down. So, here are some pictures that I took....she was cute, until we got outside. Take a look...

But, here is before we got outside.

Well...there you have it. She liked the suit, just not the snow...LOL! We will try again some other time.

House Update

So, the last posts I posted about the house that we were looking at. As good as it looked from the bedrooms and the kitchen, it wasn't all it was cracked up to be. After having Husbands Step Dad look through it thoroughly, there was a lot of things that were not "code". Basement mainly. Just wasn't good at all. So, needless to say. We didn't end up making an offer on that house.
I know that I was making a big deal about that house....but to us, without having the professional eye look at it, it was good. In reality, it was staged really good. That's what made us fall in love with it. So, the search continues. 
We went out looking yesterday, and we found another house that we REALLY like. Only problem, it MIGHT be already pending a contract. So we are having our real estate agent look into it and hopefully maybe it's not, and we can make an offer. We are seriously in love with this house, and it needs to be ours. So we're hoping that we get good news today when she emails us the info. I will not give you any details about the house. I won't be posting any pictures or anything until we know for sure that we are able to make an offer. I don't want to get my heart set on this place. We're both really interested. The location, the price and the size of the house are just perfect for our family. Wide open floor plan, and amazing basement. That's all I will tell you right now.
In regards to my blog, I haven't had any time to write up the posts that I really want to blog, so this week I'll get on that and make this blog worth reading. I know that as of late, all I've been writing about is house hunting. Well, that's because that all we have been doing. We are on a time crunch with people wanting to rent and wanting to move in on March 16th. So we need to get our butts OUTTA here!
So, I just want to say that I do apologize for my lack of blogging anything interesting here lately, but I promise, if you stick with me, you will not be disappointed. I've got some good shit up my sleeve, and I hope to be able to work on my posts more this week. I'm trying my best to not leave a day postless...and I think I've done a pretty good job of that. I know they may not be as interesting as you would like, but I've got good stuff coming. So, just bare with me. Wish us luck that we get good news on this house that we want, and we're able to put an offer in!
Thanks Loves!

It's Freakin' Friday!!!

So, here's the dealio....today is Friday. And what does that mean to me? Well...it means a few things. 1. It's almost the weekend, and that means getting to spend lots of quality time with my sweet little family. 2. It means that we're going to see the house that we saw on Wednesday and FELL IN LOVE WITH! Yes, I would say that's the most important part of this Friday, to me at least.
So, if you read the post from earlier this week...."More House Hunting" then you saw all the pictures of this house that are posted on the listing. I'd like to think that my post was good luck for us. I'd like to think that it gave us the good mojo for this house to be the perfect house for us. It was like tooo real for us. As soon as we walked in, it was like we both just knew. This was going to be the perfect home. The house is in GREAT condition. Lots of room to live. Which is what we've been needing, like in a major way. There is a living room, a family room. A REALLY nice kitchen with some kind of crazy nice countertops. They aren't granite, but something else. All appliances are in good condition. It's an eat in kitchen. And there is also a dining room off the living room. Off the other side of the eat in kitchen, there is the family room, and then a sliding doorwall that leads to a florida room. And then outside is a really nice deck, and a decent size backyard. 
So then upstairs. 4 bedrooms. 2 baths. (half bath downstairs) So the Master bedroom is like AH-mazing!! HUGE room, even HUGER (yes, I said huger) LOL! walk in closet. And the master bathroom is like TO DIE FOR!! Stand up shower, lots of counter space. Lots of closet space for all our toiletries and whatnot. OMG, like, I don't think there is a bad thing to say about the master suite...AT ALL! 
So then the other 3 bedrooms, we're going to make 1 a guest bedroom. We will put our current bedroom furniture in there. So, yes, that does mean that we get to shop for new bedroom furniture for ourselves! YAY!!!!!!! And then 1 will be for Chloe. Obviously...and I am so super excited to make her big girl room!!! I cannot wait for that! And then the other bedroom will be Chloe's PLAYROOM!!!!! YAY!!!! Just what I've always wanted. Since we found out we were pregnant. That was my dream! And it's finally going to come true!!
So, I'm really excited for this. If everything goes good today....if the roof looks good. If the siding and everything is in good shape. If the Father In Law gives it the ok, then we're putting an offer in. TODAY!  Husband talked to a lawyer, and he said that if we put the offer in today, and all the inspections and everything come back good, and the offer and counter offer goes good, then we will have the keys in about 45 days. Which is really good considering we have people that are planning to move into our house on March 16th. They will be signing the lease sometime next week, and giving us the security deposit.
So, pray for us! Send some good mojo this way!!! This is it for us. We need this to happen. We can't spend another year in our house. It's way to small as it is, and as Chloe grows it's only getting smaller.......Eeeeeek! I can't tell you how excited I am. This is exactly the way I wanted our 2012 to start out. JUST LIKE THIS!

Accent Vlog

Alright girls...I'm gonna do it. As weird as I feel just talking to nobody in a camera. I'm gonna go for it. So if I sound/look weird or nervous, it's probably because I am. LOL! So, here goes nothin'!

The instructions are to say these words:

Aunt, Route, Wash, Oil, Theater, Iron, Salmon, Caramel, Fire, Water, Sure, Data, Ruin, Crayon, Toilet, New Orleans, Pecan, Both, Again, Probably, Spitting Image, Alabama, Lawyer, Coupon, Mayonnaise, Syrup, Pajamas, Caught 

And answer these questions:

What is it called when you throw toilet paper on a house?
What is the bug called that rolls up in a ball when you touch it?

What is the bubbly carbonated drink called?

What do you call gym shoes?

What do you say to address a group of people?

What do you call the kind of spider that has an oval shaped body and extremely long legs?

What do you call your grandparents?

What do you call the wheeled contraption in which you carry groceries at the supermarket?

What do you call it when rain falls while the sun is shining?

What is the thing you use to change the TV channel?


I know a lot of people did this awhile back, but I wasn't a blogger back then. And a very cute, bubbly girl that I follow, Kristen, over at All in my Twenties just posted one, so you should go over and check hers out as well!!

SO WHAT! Wednesday

Of course....as always! Linking up with Shannon over at Life After I "Dew" for another week of saying SO WHAT!


This week I'm saying SO WHAT! if:

• I have posted pictures of houses that aren't mine...Monday's post I was just letting you know what we were seeing. And well...yesterday, we're hoping that it's THE ONE! And if it is...well, you will just have to wait and see!
• I have a draft of a post called "First Snow". Yes, we have already had our first snow. It was this past weekend. And I was going to take pictures of Chloe playing in it. But, we didn't go out.
• Monday, we went house hunting, and got home around 7pm. And I had full intentions of giving Chloe a bath and all that. But her eyes were so heavy when I was changing her, I decided to just slip her into her jammies, and away into dreamland she went. No bath...oh well..shoot me.
• Husband is back in school. We had like 3 weeks of no school over the holidays. And now with him back in the books, it gives me time to blog and maybe catch up on my reading!
• Today is my first REAL day of Weight Watchers. And this past week...I haven't done so good. That's ok, cuz today starts it all!!
• I'm really excited to move, but I'm nervous to go through all the stuff up in the attic that I haven't seen in 6 years. Should I go through it, or just throw it away?? Hmm...I guess we will find out.
• The thing I'm most nervous about moving, is my cat. I'm just scared about her having to get used to a new house, new smells, and a new location for her litter box. Wish us luck on that!
• I'm talking about moving and we haven't even set in stone that we're moving...hehe!! Excited much?!

I think that's it for me for now. So head on over to Shannon's Life After I "Dew" and Link Up!!

More House Hunting

And the search continues. If you read yesterdays post, then you know that we looked at 2 houses. Well...actually 3. Our Real Estate Agent took us to 1 that wasn't in our plans, but it actually hit the market about 10 minutes before we left our house. It was pretty nice, but there was just something that wasn't right. It said that it was over 1800 Sq Ft. But the living space just wasn't there. I would show you some pictures, but the listing isn't even available...that's how new it is. Basically it was a flip. Someone bought it for CHEAP and redid everything from the floors to the windows and the countertops and everything in between. You walk in and the eat in kitchen was to the left. Then there was a separate room off the kitchen which could have only been used for a dining room. And then right off that was the Master bedroom with a really nice walk in closet and an OK master bath. Back to the kitchen, the living room was off that, and there was a really nice sliding glass door with a really nice, big deck. So then on the other side of the house were the other 3 bedrooms. All pretty nice size with closets. The basement was completely finished with amazing tile and a full wet bar and bathroom. Our issue with this house was the "living space". There wasn't anywhere to really hang out. The living room space was just lacking. The furniture they had in it was tiny to begin with, and it still looked really crammed in there. We want more room...and being that it was over 1800 Sq Ft. We just needed more. We want a more spacious floor plan. So...on to the next. 
We saw 2 other houses that just we not up to our standards. We secretly thing that our Real Estate Agent hates us and thinks that we're never going to find something. But in reality, we're just being really picky because we want this to be our "forever home". We don't want to have to move in somewhere with the intentions of having to sell/rent again in 5-10 years. We want to grow old in this home.
So, we have 2 more appointments set up for Wednesday. One is REALLY nice. I'm super excited to see it...
The street name is super cute too! Sugar Spring! LOVE it! It's really nice, from what the pictures have to show. It's 4 bedrooms, 3 baths. 2, 094 Sq Ft. And looks like everything is updated. So, for the hefty price that it's showing, we won't have to really do anything but move in. So that's good. 

Here are the pictures.

 Front, back and enterance

kitchen and dining area

 living room and stairs

 bathrooms and master bedroom

seasonal room and other bedrooms
I'm I'm thinking that IF we do end up putting an offer in on this house, I will make the room with the star on the wall Chloe's. Only because it's got the chair molding, and I really want to do pink/white/green again...but not whole walls like we have now. I'll do a post of what her room looks like now, after we find out if this will be our new home...so I can do kind of a before and after. Because I plan on making Chloe's "big girl room" sooooo good! I can't wait!!

Now, I know that I'm showing this house off like it's already my own, but this is with high hopes that the next time you see pictures of this house (hopefully) the mailbox will have "Seed" on it!!

Here's hoping!!

Update on the House stuff

Our weekend went pretty darn good! Friday night was pretty normal. Nothing out of the ordinary. Just the usual feed Chloe, bathe Chloe, play with Chloe and put Chloe down for bed. Then we started watching some TV and fell asleep in the couch. 
Saturday we went to look at a house. We had pretty high hopes for it. The pictures that we saw on the internet were REALLY good! Like, REALLY good! But as soon as we pulled into the driveway, we both kind of looked at each other and knew...we just knew that we weren't going to like it. But we gave it the benefit of the doubt and went inside anyways. So, here is what we saw inside.

Yes, I know it looks good from the pictures. That's what WE thought too...but it was SO BAD!! 

So, in hopes of coming back from this POS, we're going to see this house tonight. And yes, these are the only 2 pictures that are on the website that we get from our Real Estate Agent. So...wish us luck!!

We have no idea what the inside looks like. So we're going in blind...just a little scared considering we've got 2 couples that are interested in moving into our house in like less then 2 months. Ahhhh!!!!!

Skin Problems

This is something that I've never talked about on my blog. But it's something that happened to me and that I look back on and say Eww!!! Something that I never want to have to say that I stuggle with ever again. Adult Acne...eeek! Not good. I've always been the type that broke out during my period and it usually just went away within a few days. But I had the biggest problem when I was pregnant. Immediately, I kind of knew that I was having a girl because of the old wives tale. Bad Acne=girl because she takes all of your beauty away from you to become beautiful herself. Well, good lord did that become true for me. I was a hot mess my whole pregnancy, and as we all know, Chloe is just a stunning little girl. And has been since the day she was born. 
So, after I gave birth, and was done breastfeeding, I decided that pizza face was no longer a good look for me. It was annoying, wouldn't go away, and just wouldn't heal. No matter what make up I used, no matter how often I washed my face, or with what face wash I used. Just would NOT go away. I went to the dermatologist and said "HELP ME PLEASE"!!! She prescribed me Epiduo. I had heard of this "wonder drug" before, and I was skeptical, but very interested to try it. This stuff is SUPER expensive unless you have insurance. Without, it's upwards of $200 for just a small little tube. With insurance it's about $50 ish, but my derm gave me a little card that insured I got it for no more then $30!! Whoo Hoooo!!!! I'll take it! AND at my 8 week checkup, she gave me another card for a free tube!! So, I'm set for awhile! At this point, I'm not even done with my first tube. This stuff goes a long way! Only about a pea size amount is all you need for a nightly application! I love it!

This pic was taking WAY before I started...and it's black and white to make it look like the acne is just..well...not acne. But it didn't work that well. LOL

So, I think it was back in maybe April ish that I started to use this stuff. And let me tell you, my first day picture was HIDEOUS!!! See for yourself.

And then here is day 7

(this might be my favorite pic just because you can see my bright hazel eyes sooo good!)

I love that it seriously started working like IMMEDIATELY!!!

And here are some pics taken just this past Tuesday night. I didn't take any other pics...Idk why, I just forgot. But as you can see. It's 100 gone!! 

LOVE MY FACE NOW!

(picture taken right after I washed my face...please excuse the retarded look that I have. My eye looks like it's half shut. IDK what happened there)

So, there you have it. I'm proof that Epiduo works!! So if you are like me and have very problem skin. Try it! I promise you, you won't be sorry!!

Another Hairy Post

January 23rd, 2012 at 1pm will be the date and time for my hair to change for the better. Idk what it is that I'm going to be doing to it yet, but it's for free, and it's done at work...so what's better then that?! I'm thinking that I might want to either do the purple that I've done in the past (before I started blogging) so you guys might not have seen that. It wasn't PURPLE purple...it was more of a dark brown/black with violet tones. It looked purple in straight sun light! It was pretty sweet....
Or I was thinking about putting some red in my hair too. IDK which I would rather do though. What do you guys thing? Right now my hair is just blah brown...nothing special. I haven't been to a salon in AGES! Probably since I was pregnant...so that's been a long time!
Give me your opinions...I need help with this one!

SO WHAT! Wednesday

Linking up with Shannon over at Life After I "Dew" for another week of SO WHAT! Wednesday!
This week I'm saying SO WHAT! if:

• I've had my Keurig for like a few weeks and I still can't figure out how to be able to make my own ground coffee without it overflowing the grounds....ugh!
• I wish that Chloe was as cuddly with me as she was when she was sick, all the time.
• I signed up for Weight Watchers through work because it's free!!
• Also, I signed up for Weight Watchers knowing that they might actually not let me participate because I'm not 10lbs over weight...we will find out today...
• I'm really excited that Husband signed up for MFP!! Now I have someone to compete with!!
• Chloe is JUST NOW off her night time bottle...yes, she's almost 17 months old...so what! Kill me.
• I keep buying myself clothes. I know that I can't fit anymore (literally) in my closet, but I also know that I will hopefully have a nice big walk in closet to put them in...one of these days. LOL
• Chloe is 16.5 months old and she really doesn't talk much. She knows a lot of words...she just doesn't say them.
• I have a secret...one that nobody in the blog world knows about me....and that secret is....I smoke. We're on the road to stopping.
• When Husband signed up for MFP, he asked is "sex" was listed as an exercise...idk, I've never tried to look it up. LOL!!

Well, that' s all for this week. Go Link up with Shannon!! GO!

Food, Food and more Food

It's been quite awhile since I have posted about food and my pinsperations for food...so here goes! 
http://pinterest.com/pin/166633254932398935/ I made this on Sunday, and let me tell you, it was THE BEST chicken dish I have EVER had! It was to die for!! Husband approved too!!

Now, this...http://pinterest.com/pin/166633254932335412/ It was really good! Like, super good! Something that I would for sure make again! Super easy, and delish!

I made this http://pinterest.com/pin/166633254932335310/ for the Christmas Pot Luck at work, and seriously, it didn't last...by the time I had the chance to grab a bite, it was ALMOST gone. There was like 2 servings left. Everybody was just ranting and raving about how good they were, and wanted the recipe!

I made this http://pinterest.com/pin/166633254932330504/ on a night that Husband went out after work. Had some Ramen with it...and boy, it was delish! I wasn't sure how it would taste at first, and I had never bought an Avocado before...so I was that person googleing how to pick a good Avocado while I was standing in the middle of the produce section of the grocery store. LOL! But for real though, Avocado, Mozzerella, and Pepperoni. What's better then that?!

Now, this one...http://pinterest.com/pin/166633254932330487/ I didn't listen to the recipe and I made a whole box of pasta...should have only used 8oz. Oops...oh well. It was tasty, but there was way too much pasta to "stuff" so we really weren't too fond of it. That's ok though. I'll try it again sometime soon.

http://pinterest.com/pin/166633254932306107/ I've already made this one twice. It's SOOOO freakin tasty! Like, seriously, what's better then refrigerator biscuits with enchilada stuff?! 

These http://pinterest.com/pin/166633254932301898/ were super fun to make and really really tasty!! And I was surprised that Husband actually liked them since they have ricota and feta cheese in them! Yum!!!

And last but not least, this http://pinterest.com/pin/166633254932299407/ I tweeked the recipe a little bit and left out the veggies and the french fried onions. But it was still sooo good!!

So there you have it. That's what we've been eating. I love pinterest, and I can't wait to try more recipes!!
