Smiling Faces

First of all, my mother sometimes brings us dinner. No, we did not just have a baby. No, neither of us are sick. And no, she is not any sort of culinary legend. She just does it. Okay, so now that we've cleared that up, the other day she brought dinner and as I was putting the salad out she could not stop laughing. she said "i just couldn't help myself." this is what i looked down at:

how cute is...

Harper?!

at only five and half weeks old this baby girl may be one of the biggest supporters we've got!
(or maybe that would be her sweet Mama...)


though we know it's not true, it would be easy to believe Harper's nursery was decorated around our frames!


Her Mama just happened to come to us at the perfect time to get frames that really do look like they were made for this room (timing matters because our frames' finishes vary depending on the wood we have at our disposal)



this last one is one of my favorite frames and i think it has the perfect picture to make it even cuter!

no diapers for me tonight!

and more importantly, no waking up!! Yep - that's right, i get to sleep ALL ....night....long. (AND on my stomach - which I had been unable to do for at least past 7 months) I'm not sure if I have ever been so excited about anything in my life. My mother-in-law is spending the night over here and taking care of Mills. AND i just noticed that it's close to 4:00 so I can have a glass of wine now. AND a friend brought dinner so i don't have to even think about (cooking another frozen pizza for) dinner. life doesn't get any better :)

sleep
wine
real food

aaaaaahhhhhhhhhh

in one piece






though i currently lack the figure (and in the case of these babies, the funds) to really pull off actually wearing a one-piece swimsuit, i totally dig them. (as an example of how true my adoration for this style of swimwear is, let me share this: one year, when i was IN COLLEGE, i bought three. for Spring Break).


(sorry for the image with the (hot) girl - i tried to find a bodiless image of the same suit but was unsuccessful)

top two suits from here; bottom one from her

{it's} in the bag

so, apparently i carry a purse so heavy it can quite literally pull a (it's worth mentioning, tiny) woman halfway to the ground - which begs the question, what qualifies as "normal" contents of one's handbag?

oh - and i should note, i did not even carry a purse at all until i was about 21 years old. only then did i carry one because upon starting my first internship my adorable Nana insisted on taking me shopping to purchase both a pair of shoes and handbag proper for a young professional (it should also be noted that this precious lady both lives on a farm, in the house she was born in and has not ever left the country - neither figuratively nor literally). anyway, about the pair of shoes and the handbag, i still have both. i think i had a few "purses" (read: of the ones I can recall one was a pink patent cat face with a mouse-as-a-change-purse attachment the other, a hemp pouch) before then - but would leave them places like Pizza Hut (when i was young enough to like Pizza Hut) and then just gave up on them all together. so, you can imagine my surprise when last week it is revealed to me that I, do, in fact, keep the heaviest handbag of anyone I know. I always noticed it was inconveniently heavy and uncomfortable to tote around but just thought this was the price we all paid to have everything we could ever "need" at an arm's length. I lived the majority of my life without having it ever even occur to me that i needed a bag at all and now i've got the biggest one around. go figure.

seriously readers (if there are in fact any of you...) what's in your bag?
