Flutter Skirts

I have always loved skirts. In grade school there were years I refused to wear pants. I was/am a girly girl. See…I think my figure looks better in skirts. Smaller waist accented and child bearing hips camouflaged.

Skirts make you feel beautiful
Skirts make you feel like dancing
Skirts make you feel feminine
Spring is in full swing and summer is upon us.
I’m going to wear skirts.

The End
Another great post on skirts here from one of my favorite blogs The Domestic Fringe.

I’m going to add this to Mom’s The Word’s Making your Home Sing Monday Because I’m making my home sing by being a feminine fluttery mommy! Click here for more fun.

Where the hay can I put my diaper bag!?!?

You are in the grocery store.
You put your diaper bag next to baby.
Baby flings the contents of your wallet throughout the store.
You put the diaper bag in the cart, it gets covered with food and fixins’.
You get to the checkout you hold up the line searching for your coupons.
Use a carabiner (rock climbing hook) to clip your bag to the cart!! I got my carabiner at REI. It has flowers on it :)
I keep it attached to the strap of my diaper bag. It clips to anything… stroller, cart & toddler (except for the toddler).

These pix were taken on a recent trip to one of my favorite places, IKEA!
Go have lunch there sometime it’s cheap cheap cheap.
Hot Hubby and I have even grabbed dinner there on a few date nights. I recommend the salmon and Hot Hubby gets the lasagna!

Memorial Day FUN!!

Happy Memorial Day!!~May you remember the men and women
who have died serving our country.
~May you be thankful to live in a country
where freedom reigns.
~May you eat fresh strawberries
till your tummy is full!

Call friends and family who have served our great country today!
“Memorial Day was first established in 1868 in order to honor the soldiers who had fallen during the Civil War. It was initially only recognized by first NewYork and then the remainder of the northern states, and wasn’t followed by the south until after World War I.”
(Info found here.)

Going on a Picnic? Take a Lid…

Get settled.
Take the famous “group shot” with one arm extended as far as you can reach!
I’m not the best lunch packer (as some of you might remember Cora Jane gnawing on a potato at the pool). This time I packed leftover lasagna and one paper towel.
Yes folks, ONE PAPER TOWEL!!!
Rookie mistake.
Cora is wearing the Pink Snowboarder Lid in pink size newborn-1-year-old.
