LGC ~ 2 months

Happy 2 months to my favorite little girl!!!

Don't you just want to eat this little face up??!! It's been a very eventful 2 months to say the least, but the BEST at that!

I'm a tad late posting these, however I have been waiting for her adorable stickers to come in the mail and well they finally did over the weekend! These were discovered on Etsy! Oh Etsy, you never seem to disappoint. They are adorable, and I can't wait for our monthly photo shoot to see how much the little one is growing!! :)

Holiday Promo (Explanation)

So on Thursday you might have noticed I blogged a "random" blog about Shutterfly. Well, a dear friend passed on to me this special promo that they were running if you made a particular post following their guidelines...you could have the chance to win 50, yes folks, 50 FREE holiday cards. So naturally, I blogged! And while the hubby and I were on our first big date night out last night (thanks to this dear friend above who watched our little angel), I recieved the email stating that I had indeed won the 50 FREE cards! This made my night, sorry hubs :) Originally we weren't going to be able to send out Christmas cards this year, but now we can. Boy oh boy, the things I get excited about!

Here are just a few of the designs I'm thinking about going with. What's your favorite?!

Holiday Cards (promo)

For the past few years, I have been getting my holiday cards via Shutterfly and have been extremely pleased! They have an abundance of designs to choose from and I've never had a problem picking out just the right one for our family! I love that they have cards of all different sizes, and ones that you can add multiple pictures to! I think I've already spotted just the one we are going to use! This year however will be more special as we have a new addition to our family that we can't wait to show off! We've already had our picture taken and picked out for our 2010 holiday card and are excited to share them with the ones we love. Not only do we have our 3 year old fur baby with us, but also our 2 month old baby girl...and we've got them caputured together which just melts our heart everytime we look at it :) They are best buds and don't even know it yet!

Below are just some of my favorite items from Shutterfly...check 'em out! The wall calendars make great gifts for the holidays!!

Smiles to Brighten your Thursday

For those interested, here's a sweet little video of LGC and her super cute smile (towards the end)!! Yes, it was one of those rainy days yesterday, so we whipped out the Flip!
Enjoy!!

(Just ignore my annoying voice!!)

Looking to Sell...

Well, there is always a first for everything. While I love browsing on EBay and purchasing, I have never sold anything on there. So I found myself here at Lemon Petals, parting with a few of my favorite items. There is nothing wrong with these, it is just that time. Let me know if you are interested in any of the selling items below. They are all SOLD AS IS, with NO returns. Feel free to let me know if you would like for me to send you more pictures or information on the items, or if you know of someone that might be interested! And stay tuned for more items to be posted.

The Painted Peacock

While on Facebook last night, I saw that I had a "Page Suggestion" sitting in my inbox. It was for this lovely site...The Painted Peacock. I think I just spotted furniture heaven! Now while some talented people (for example, my friend Kelly who loves all this design jazz. check out her blog and handy craftsmanship HERE) may say, "Oh, I can do make that", I on the other hand cannot. I prefer to enjoy the likes of other peoples hard work and enjoy them in my home :) I am sure that if I took the time (but hey, who has that these days with a newbon around) I could whip something up like this, but I'll save that for another rainy day. But, over at TPP, I am absolutely loving her pop of color and vintage look that she is restoring. And not to mention, athe prices are very attractive!! I'd kill to have some of these pieces below in my home, and while maybe in a another lifetime I would, fortunately diapers and wipes seem to take the cake over these pieces these days.

Indulge

Going to be short, as it is another fun filled weekend with visitors in town! Today we're off to the Junior League Shopping Spree. If you live in Raleigh, GO!! It's filled with amazing vendors from all 50 states, and they have fabulous buys...too good to pass up especially with Christmas just around the corner!

Then Saturday we are off to the State Fair!! I am most excited about this. First, the people watching is awesome....and Two, I'm obsessed with funnel cakes, and yes, I will pay the admission fee just to walk in and indulge in a funnel cake. Not gonna lie that it is so worth it, and if I'm not feeling super guilty at that point, I might pop by the Wisconsin cheese stand for some fried cheese.

Are you hungry yet??
Happy Friday

I'm dying...

over JCrew's latest catalog! I mean, every time it comes in the mail, I drool over each page...BUT this time I had to pick my jaw up off the floor. I am seriously fancing every piece. Such ashame that my JCrew card got revoked. I mean, what's the fun in that?
