an assortment of everything

Linking of up with Kelly!

1. A few (and I DO mean a few ... as in three) people have asked me about mom-friendly but not super dowdy swimsuits and I have found a few that I love but thought I'd ask you fine folks if you have any favorites. There are lots of great comments on my postpartum swimsuit post and I know Lands End is the queen of great suits AND I also saw that these skirts from Rad Swim are TWO DOLLARS. They have no idea who I am and didn't ask me to post but if you're a swim skirt girl ... go!

2. So after all that dress stress (well, not stress but you know) there was a little communication snag with our sitter for our dinner but luckily (oh SO luckily) we found another sitter available last minute. While we were waiting for her to show up - Theo offered to take some photos of us. He's really into taking photos with my camera and phone and gets the subject in the shot about 40% of the time.


He just held the button down and took a burst of 63 photos. Bless our little aspiring Ansel's heart.

I found this dress at Nordstrom Rack along with these shoes. I thought the shoes would be killing me by the end of the night but they didn't - color me pleasantly surprised.

3. I had so much hope - too much! too much hope for this season of the Bachelorette. I just think Jojo was dealt an eh group of guys and she's doing the best she can. It seems like she likes Jordan the most but I can see Robbie and Luke sticking around to the end too. Simon thinks Luke is the final man standing. We shall SEE. As always, I love Sharleen's thoughts!

4. This was a pleasant surprise. Mucho undeserved and potentially a mistake?

5. Simon and I went on a little froyo date (who do we think we are? sitter addicts? perhaps!) this week and I really and truly fell for this ...


... I hate mayo more than anyone in the history of mayo and my eyes about popped out of my head. Good one, Yogurtology.

And yes - that's my cup to the left, to the left. Judge me real hard. Please.

6. There's a big fat Lily Jade giveaway going on over on my Instagram. Go, go, go!!

7. Have a wonderful rest of your weekend!!

  1. I haaaate mayo. Hate. That bottle made me feel a little barfy. Ha.

    Also, seeing that pic on your blog instead of my tiny phone screen makes me think we are almost dress twins. I have a super similar one from ASOS that I lurve.

  2. Ha! The mayo!

    Yeeeeah this is my first Bachelorette season, and I was thinking geez! These are the guys to choose from? Agree Luke, but I have a soft spot for James Taylor ... but it looks like they are trying to play him in some drama next week?

  3. All the guys in this season of Bachelorette look like clones of each other!

  4. I hope she doesn't pick Jordan. In that first episode where one of the bachelorettes told her not to just pick the hot one, I've realized that's exactly what she's doing. I at first liked Jordan but now I'm like girl no, stay away. he's hot but he definitely doesn't seem like the most genuine guy anymore.

  6. I am clueless on fashion, but diviine modestee swimsuits are my absolute favorite! You get great coverage and I have never felt so put together/ comfortable in a swimsuit ever. Very well made! And stylish in the opinion of someone who has no business commenting on style. ..

  7. This swimsuit right here. http://www.walmart.com/ip/Suddenly-Slim-By-Catalina-Women-s-Slimming-Shirred-Halter-One-Piece-Swimsuit/29507940 $20, Walmart online- flatters tons of figures. I own it in red with dots, so does my cousin. So many of my friends are buying it and now they have so many print options. I get a ton of compliments when wearing it.

  8. Totally with you on the no mayo. It's like first trimester nausea in a jar for me. Kind of bummed/repulsed when a couple of our kids decided to join the opposition and were indoctrinated to the slimy side. But I do the shopping.
