What I'm Loving Wednesday!

It's been FOREVER since I linked up with Jamie for WILW!  But, I am back!   Here is what I'm loving these days....   1.  I am loving these new outfits I picked up for Connor at Baby GAP. Whoever said shopping for boys isn't as much fun as girls?!?

      2.  I am loving that MTV has been showing re-runs of Laguna Beach and The Hills every morning (yes, I am 31 and still watch these)!  I watch a lot more TV these days since I am home a lot more and was so excited to see these shows back on.  It reminded me of my college days in West Palm Beach :)  

    3.  I am loving (or maybe not really...) that my birthday was yesterday.  I can't believe I am 31 years old.  Craziness!!  My parents are watching Connor on Friday night so hubby and I can have a night out to celebrate!  

    4.  I am loving Nick Lachey's newest "baby" CD, "A Father's Lullaby."  I play it for Connor when he naps during the day :)   

    5.  I am loving all of my new Honest Company products!  I got diapers, wipes, fruit & veggie spray, cleaning spray and bubble bath.  These are awesome, safe, toxic/chemical free products for your home and body (and baby!).  So far I am loving everything.  If you haven't read Jessica Alba's book, The Honest Life, I highly recommend it :)  

      6.  And last but not least...I am loving my sweet baby boy that is 10 weeks old this week!  

  Head over to Jamie's blog and link up!   Happy Wednesday, friends!    

Weekend Finds- World Market Shower Curtains & Towels

I have always had a bit of an obsession with shower curtains and towels (strange, I know). I think they add so much color and character to boring, dull bathrooms. Well, I wandered into Cost Plus World Market over the weekend just to browse and I was walking thru the bath section and came across the cutest shower curtains and towels that I have ever seen. I wanted to buy all of them! Here were my favorites:

If you don't have this store in your city you are missing out! But, lucky for you, you can shop online! =) I could go on and on about all the other awesome stuff I found that I wanted to buy. This store can be dangerous for your wallet!
Happy Shopping!

Spring Stripes & Brights

All of my favorite stores are filled with bright colors and stripes this season! I can't wait for warm weather, sunny days and some Spring shopping! I especially love all of the bright colors. Here are some of my favorites!

We have moved!

Bright and early Saturday morning the movers showed up to pack up our whole house and move us back to The Woodlands! 139 boxes and 10 hours later, we officially do not live in Houston anymore. Sunday was spent having a cleaning crew do a deep, move-out clean of our empty home and Chris and I touched up walls. We had breakfast at one of our favorite inner loop breakfast spots, Barnaby's then left our first home for the last night and headed to The Woodlands.






Our new house will not be ready until the beginning of February so all of our stuff, except for a few suitcases of clothes, will be in storage until it is time to move in. We are lucky to have both of our families there so we are going to be staying with them for the next few weeks. Here is our new house, as of yesterday! =) We hope they start putting in the hardwood floors and landscaping this week!


A lot of people don't like the building process but we LOVE it! It is so fun going to see it every week and seeing all the progress that has been made since the last time you saw it. Now that we are nearing the end we are a little more like "ok, hurry up and finish so we can move in!" But, if you ever have the opportunity to build a house, I highly recommend it!

This week we are going to try to figure out which gym we want to join in The Woodlands. We are leaning more toward 24 Hour Fitness because there is one so close to our new house and I get a really cheap membership fee through my company. And we are going to look for a new master bedroom set and kitchen table! Whohoo!

Hope yall had a great weekend!!

{In love with shoes}

I am on the hunt for a couple new pairs of shoes and luckily I have a few giftcards to use! Here are some I have my eyes on :)
