Looking forward to . . .

Wearing comfy sweaters like this one.  I finally got out my fall/winter clothes and am excited it is finally fall weather.  

Taking Addilyn swimming.  Chris' aunt has an indoor pool and I am thinking we should take Addilyn swimming in it soon. All she needs is some baby swimming accessories and some cute swimwear and she'll be ready.  Thankfully I found her a little bikini at Target a month or so ago for only $2.50 that she needs to wear! 

Trick or treating.  And eating any candy that I steal from my niece and nephews.  I'm not positive if we will even go trick or treating because it's supposed to rain, but Addi will be in costume and I will be eating someone's candy.  Have you seen a cuter cow? 

Getting more canvases for our house.  I recently got this canvas from Easy Canvas Prints, which is the same place I bought the ultrasound one when I was pregnant.  I love how they both look on the wall in Addilyn's room.  I finally got around to picking out which newborn pictures to use for canvases to hang in our living room and I am so excited to get them.  They always have the best deals and turn out great!

My birthday.  Saturday is my birthday and Chris and I are planning on going on our first real date without Addilyn.  Excited to spend some alone time with Chris, but also to celebrate my birthday this weekend as a family of three!

Say what?

 

shirt, pants and sandals:  target

First of all remember my ridiculous story about my indecisiveness with polka dot pants?  Thankfully this time I found these pants at Target for $12, bought them and wore them the next day.  No returning these.  

One day last week I was out shopping with my mom and was in the bathroom changing Addilyn's diaper when a woman came up to me and said "Awwww.  So cute.  Girl right?"

Addilyn was wearing this pink polka dot outfit with that big flower headband. 

What I really wanted to say was either

"What gave it away?  Her pink dress or the big flower on her head."  or

"No, he's a boy, we were just really hoping for a girl so we're dressing him like one instead." 

But of course just said,"Yep.  She's a girl!"

I'm sure this will just be the first of many surprising things strangers say to you about your baby. 

4th Times a Charm

You're probably busy watching the Super Bowl, but I personally find a story about polka dot pants much more interesting.

This is actually the fourth pair of polka dots pants I've purchased, but the first pair I've actually kept.
Long story short:

I got a cute pair at American Eagle, found ones I liked better at Old Navy, returned the ones from American Eagle.  

Tried on the Old Navy ones at home, couldn't believe I bought pants that were that tight and uncomfortable and returned them. 

Saw the same pants again at American Eagle for cheaper than before ($12) so I bought them.  Didn't wear them for a month because I was scared to wear polka dot pants for fear of looking like a clown or a four year old, got pregnant, they were already tight before so I returned them.  

Saw these at Old Navy for only $8 this weekend.  So I finally bought them and wore them.

Fourth times a charm, right? 

I apologize as I ended up sharing the full version.  And when I think about it, it is probably one of the worst and most boring stories I've told.  Please revert to a better one like here or here.
