I forgot to mention, my boutique is currently featured in Tot Trends Weekly Summer shopping guide! I’m really super excited about it!

On the topic of shopping, I was browsing online for a new swim suit for this summer and I came across this hot lingerie site that also has some really cute bikinis. I can’t decide what style I want to get. I really like this one but I’m not sure if I want to spend that much on a swim suit. I like how that one covers your tummy but is still really, really cute. Even though you can barely see what stretch marks I did get from my pregnancy, I’m still self conscious about them. I wish there was a magical way to make them disappear! They really aren’t that bad, but my belly button just doesn’t look like it used to. It… sags… or something. I don’t know. It’s weird.

Hudson, I love you

I’m in love.

If you know me, you know I love jeans. Jeans are perfect for anything, anytime. Everyone needs at least one pair of jeans that are completely amazing. I’ve spent a lot of time and money over the years searching for the the perfect pair of jeans. Well my friends, the search ends here.

Allow me to introduce my new jean love, Husdon. I have seen celebrities wearing Hudson jeans from time to time and have always thought they were cute. But when I was flipping through the current issue of InStyle magazine, I saw Rachel Bilson in these Hudson jeans and I just HAD TO HAVE THEM.

So of course, I searched ebay. I couldn’t find the exact style in my size at a price I wanted to pay so I kept checking every day and then finally, someone posted the exact jeans that I wanted, in my size, at an amazing buy it now price - brand new with tags!

They came in the mail today. They are perfect. Perfect, perfect, perfect. I also got another pair of Hudson jeans that came yesterday, and they are amazing. The denim has a super soft broken in feel and the back pockets make your butt look really, really good.

There are few things that satisfy me more than sliding into a perfect pair of jeans. My husband thinks I’m obsessed.

I love amazing deals!

I need to briefly complain about something. I buy and sell a lot of things on ebay. When I sell something, I weigh the item before listing in and only charge actual shipping. I hate when people try to make money off of shipping! We just bought a huge lot of clothes for Ashton and were charged $19.95 for shipping when it really only cost just over $13 to ship. And it came in an old box that looks like it’s seen better days. The clothes were perfect, but I dunno… I don’t like when people try to make money off shipping. I also bought the girls 3 brand new with tags tank tops from The Children’s Place for only $5.99. I was charged $5 shipping and assumed that it would be for USPS Priority which would cost $4.80 for something of this weight. Turns out the tank tops were sent USPS First Class for $1.86! Grrrrrr it just gets on my nerves.

And on the topic of ebay… I just scored an amazing deal on a pair of 7 For All Mankind jeans that retail for $198. Guess what I paid? Okay I’ll tell you….. $13. THIRTEEN DOLLARS. The first thing I would think if someone told me they bought designer jeans for $13 is that they must be fake. Don’t worry, these are authentic, you can totally tell. I’m wondering why they didn’t have more bids though… The seller has a lot of feedback that is 100% positive so I’m pretty sure I just got the most amazing deal of all time. SWEET.

Designer jeans are awesome. Jeans are one thing that I will spend a good deal of money on and not feel bad about it. I’m such a jeans and T shirt kind of girl, so I will pay just about anything for the perfect pair of jeans. In my experience, designer jeans fit like a glove. Perfect. I’m so excited to get these in the mail!

p.s. I think this might have to be my next ebay purchase. LOL! Can you imagine?

Awesome.

I have a lot of things on my mind right now so I apologize in advance if this is all very random!

Baby shoes are probably one of the cutest things ever. I have been looking for little bitty baby Converse for a while and today I finally found some. They are sooooo cute!!! I got the last two pair in the girls size. They had pink ones but only one in their size so I went for the black. You can’t go wrong with these shoes. They go with everything. They were on sale too! It was the best buy I’ve made lately!

I’m excited today because I landed a really good advertising spot for my baby boutique. I can’t wait for it to go up. It’s on a really popular baby website that I frequent. I have high hopes for it!

I was at Kohl’s today buying more white onesies for iron ons, because I ran out of the size I need, and I couldn’t help but gawk over the baby boy clothes. Call me crazy but I have baby fever, already, again! I know I have said that before. We just want a boy really bad. I started charting again so I know when I ovulate, and this month is still a boy month… I’m torn if we should give it a shot this month or not. We’re only trying when the lunar calendar says it’s a boy month for me, like I’ve said before. But I’m afraid if we try on this one boy month, I’ll want to keep trying and not wait until the 5 months of “boy” if I don’t get pregnant this month. Maybe I shouldn’t “rely” on the lunar calendar? All I know is the Chinese still use it and it’s proven to be really quite accurate. I don’t really rely on it, I just want to have the best chances whether or not it actually works! But I don’t have very good will power and I know if I get into the mind set of possibly being pregnant, I won’t want to quit trying until I am pregnant, which is bad because the boy months don’t start until September. I am crazy. Listen to me. Analyzing the boy months and all this silly stuff! I think about babies too much. Is that possible? The only thing I’ve ever really wanted to “be” is a mom and now that I am, it’s the most incredible thing in the world. I just want to be mommy, mommy, mommy! This past year with my hubby and our babies has be the most amazing time of my life. It’s been life ya know? Like really, really, really good living. Does that make sense? I would have an entire house full of kids if I had enough money and space!

Anyway…

Preston is starting school next Monday and I have to admit, I’m looking forward to it and I’m not looking forward to it. He’s going to a refresher course to get his airline dispatcher license. He went to school for this previously but never took his final test. Anyway, so he’s doing that starting next Monday and it lasts two weeks. He’ll be gone M-F from 8am-5pm. I’m going to miss him!!! I’m so used to being with him 24/7. We work together at home and we can be with each other all the time. It’s great. I always thought I would get sick of a person being with them so much but I just love having him here with me all day every day. Also, this is a huge career move for him. He’s going to get a job as an airline dispatcher while he continues his pilot training, and he’ll most likely get a job very shortly after his refresher course is over. Which means he’ll have an out of the house job instead of (yes, instead of, not in addition to… ) his current job. This is a big thing for us. It’s what we have been working toward for a while and now it’s all coming into place. It’s extremely exciting and a little nerve wracking at the same time. I have no problem at all being at home with the girls and taking care of them by myself during the day and all that…. I just have a problem with not being able to get hugs and kisses and talks and jokes all day long!!! I guess I am just extremely spoiled. I’m sure I’ll get used to it in no time. It gives me time to miss him, which is nice sometime too.

Okay. I’m done now.

JC Penney is having an awesome sale right now! If you spend $75 or more you get $15 off your purchase, if you spend $50 or more you get $10 off your purchase. Plus everything is basically on sale! Everything I got today was on sale, lots of it was 50% off!!! I broke my transaction up into two so I got $15 off and $10 off. Score! I got the girls Easter dresses and some other cute summer stuff.
So I thought this would be a good time to give you some reasons why you should pray for a girl! (if you’re in the business of getting pregnant, that is)

Not that boys are bad. In fact I want a boy really, really, really, bad. We’re talking like, real bad.

skate shoes

I need a new pair of “skater shoes”. I’m not actually a “skater”… I don’t skateboard or do any other alternative sports myself, but I’ve always been very into the whole “skater scene” anyway. I don’t really like putting labels on people but if you were to describe my style it wouldn’t be preppy, punk, gothic, classic… it would be “skater”. Which is kind of funny because like I said, I don’t personally skate.
