Happy Merry December!

Dear Santa,

I am sorry to say that today in our home we had a wee bit of an accident. You see, as the children and I merrily trimmed the house with Holiday cheer the excitement got the best of little Lulu and down the boot went to a shattering blunder. Quickly our jolly rendition of "Deck the Halls" came to a halt. "Oh what a pity," I said as I gently wiped the tears from Lulu's face. "I am a calm and loving Mommy who completely understands that it was only an accident. It's okay that the pair of Santa boots are no longer a pair. It can't be replaced and they cost a lot of money but, it's okay sugar pie." And with that I pulled the freshly baked gingerbread from the oven and we continued on our merry way. So, we are sorry. Very, very sorry that the most important piece of your ensemble has been ruined. Trust me. I completely understand the devastation that may occur when your outfit is missing the perfect pair of shoes.

Anyway, when shopping for me will you please take into consideration that I was an extra good Mommy who handled the situation wonderfully? A pair of THESE would be lovely.

Thank You!

XOXO

Mrs. Princess Pookie

P.S. The gingerbread I baked was delicious. We'll be sure to save some for you.

P.S.S. This story is not in anyway sarcastic. Nope. Not me.

It's December 1.

Enjoy. Enjoy Enjoy.

It's Trendy Tuesday...Do You Dare?

The open toed (peep) boot. I'm not quite sure what to think about this trend. It confuses me really. A boot that has a peep hole in the toe. Very interesting. Maybe the creator of this trend lives in Miami and wanted to wear boots but, due to the higher temperatures needed a natural built in air conditioner. Or maybe they are designed to show off a fancy pedicure~clever. Or maybe they are created for backyard summer barbeque's. Or maybe they are just weird. I say we leave the peep for ballet flats and let the boots be boots!

My opinion...What a waist of a cute pair of boots. This...not so cute.

This on the other hand...cute!

Happy Trendy Tuesday everyone. Do you DARE?

Get a Life People!

Crazy lunatics!

Happy Black Friday.

You know what I find funny about this shopping day. I bet 95% of what people purchase is only purchased because of the "deal". Me, I'd much rather go buy what I really want at a decent hour of the day rather than buy 5 of what I don't want but it was a good "deal". And that's coming from someone who loves shopping more than life itself!:) Besides who wants to shop with a bunch of freakos who have stinky morning breath and wear Holiday sweaters with kittens on them. No thanks! (hee hee)

Bravo Target for the best Holiday commercials yet!

Dear Jennifer, (the photographer)

There is not enough thanks in the world to express how grateful I am for you and your talents. These pictures mean more to me than my shoe collection (:D) and I appreciate all the patience you had while working with us. You are extremely gifted and I am so glad I was able to work with you. My photo shoot truly turned out priceless!

Photo Shoot Part 1

I Can Do Hard Things

Today you were hard. You cried a lot. Then I cried a lot with you. Then I called Dad and we both cried some more. My head hurts, my arms ache and I'm tired. Really tired. And although my 30 day return policy expired 2 days ago (4 wks old Wednesday), I'll keep you for good.

I love you my son. I love you forever.

XOXO

Mom

Special Treat

My darling niece popped into town yesterday for a quick weekend trip~yea!

We both majored in shopping~hee hee!

We both could spend ridiculous amounts of money at Nordstrom~bad!

We both would eat Top Ramen for a month for new shoes.

And We both are addicted to Sephora.

These mini bags bring me such joy. What's inside?

Crazy cool nail polish. The pic doesn't do the color justice. It's black~ish with copper glitter glam added. Makes me want to PARTY in my undies.

Below you will see some of our other favorite Sephora finds.

THESE cheek stains are sure to brighten your day!

OMG. I must have THIS rainbow pack of nail color bliss. I'll get you one if you get me one!

THIS mini perfume pack by Benefit is delightful. My favorite flavor in the pack~

"Hooked on Carmella"

Oh Prince Charming....HINT HINT!

THIS hint of sparkle is absolutely perfectly perfect. I'm pretty sure it will be my treat to myself the next time I visit.
If you don't live near a Sephora...well...that just sucks.;)
See you tomorrow!

Really?

Crap! Guess I better get back to cooking. What will it be family?

P.S. If you don't have a set of THESE to eat your cereal in you're missing out!

P.S.S. Lulu promised me that if I bought Lucky Charms she wouldn't eat just the marshmallows...right...she didn't get lucky!

It's Trendy Tuesday...Do You Dare?

The Latest Trend:

Sweats (THESE), rainboots and an orange zip hoodie that probably hasn't been washed in who knows how long. Pathetic! Nothing like a new baby to throw all things fashionable out the door!

Oh Prince Charming, wanna take me out on a date?

Good or gross? Good or gross? I can't decide but I'm eating them anyway.

(Choco covered gummy bears.)

Came across THIS trendy shop on Etsy and I'm totally hitting on THIS dress.

Wear something TRENDY today! I dare you! As long as it's not purple sweats and a dirty hoodie that is!:D

Weekend Happenings

Announcing to you all...

The world MUST be coming to an end.

That would be homemade rolls you're lookin' at.

and me in an apron.
What's my problem you may wonder? My friend leaves this Thursday for a three week cruise to like a million super crazy cool places around the world (Spain, Morocco, Brazil~just to name a few.) And even though I HATE her guts, she is going to miss Thanksgiving so we decided to celebrate the day of thanks early. Poor picked on you for having to miss Thanksgiving. I hope your cruise ship breaks down and you have to eat sardines and Spam! Loser! You better bring me home something expensive!

Next...

You listen here Mr. Monkey. Today you will take a LONG nap so Mommy can take a shower, brush her teeth and wash the only pair of pants that fit her.

Excuse me? Are you sticking your tongue out at me already? That's it...you're soooo grounded mister.

Seriously Berks, you'll be dateless for the rest of your life if you continue to sport this look.

Welcome back Monday.

Get over yourself and make it a good one!:)

It's FFF (Fabulous Fashion Friday) For Home

My Prince Charming took it upon himself to decorate the mantel for Thanksgiving. Umm....thanks? I especially like the creative angle on the orange candle. It's edgy!

Happy happy happy Friday everyone!

P.S. My friend sent me THIS link relating to house decor~sorta. You MUST check it out. It's pretty darn funny!

It's A Date

Need something to do this weekend? Come see me HERE.

Ah...

Me too!

My baby is three weeks old today. Not sure how that happened already?? My body's healing BUT not healed enough to start cleaning or cooking of course! I'm learning (sorta) how to manage three children and I'm finally remembering to always be on "peep alert" when changing a (boys) diaper. He peed on his face the other day~whoops! I have to admit that one made me laugh a little.

Here's to poop, dark under eye circles and extra large muffin tops!

It's Trendy Tuesday...Do You Dare?

A girl of taste has got to adore this trend. Especially a girl who just had a baby! Thank you fashion people out there in fashion design land. Cozy, comfy and hides the muffin top!

I'll take one of each thanks! Or THIS one in Hadleigh heather please.

Do you DARE?

This and That

Weekend Happenings....

Found a place for my silly new chair.

Went bowling. Well I didn't but Prince Charming and the children did. He thinks he's a pretty freakin awesome bowler-or something.

Found a "bedroom" for Berkley. How loving us. He gets the stairway nook.
(He was in our room but all the darling little grunts and snorts aren't so darling at 3am!)

Kiss! Kiss! Kiss! Don't you just love kissing on a newborn?

Lucy found the red lipstick. She does a killer application job eh?!

Accessory overload at Forever 21 (while the rest of the fam went bowling.) Have you been to the new Forever 21 at Tacoma mall? It goes on FOREVER!

Fancy toes for Lu.

These are stinkin cute. Wanna pair for your mini muffin? Click HERE.

BTW...I got mine 45% off! Yep, 45%. DEAL!

Last but not least. Drinking my beer.

Rootbeer that is.

Believe it or not it's Monday again already!

Get over yourself and enjoy the day!

P.S. I featured THESE on my blog a while back. You MUST go buy yourself a pair now! I'm not kidding. They are the most comfortable thing ever! Ever! Ever!
