FAVORITE PARTY THEME A Coco Chanel inspired Baby Shower
 A perfect shower for spring time just around the corner! I love the shower theme..very unique!
AMAZING ruffle cake!
a great baby shower DIY project!
RECENT MAMA MOMENT- Spent the weekend away from
 Sophia for the first time since I had Sienna. big milestone!!
 The hubby and I went away for 2 days for a friends’ wedding!
it was really fun. and GORGEOUS. i love weddings. :)



MAMA STYLE @ WEDDING – Dress…. H&M for $35
(ignore the wrinkles..it was nurse the baby or iron the dress. haha.)
The times when sienna was sleeping we actually felt like we were on a getaway with no babies..haha. or as close as we will be getting to one for a while! :) 
Sienna is so portable at this age it was way easier to travel with just
 her than with both girls. It was hard for me to leave sophia but it
 was really good for ben and I to have that time together.
 When we picked her up she made us feel pretty awesome haha. 
the best big hugs and smoochies! and with sophia being 2 1/2, she did great.
 it’s really tough at first (at least for me!) but I highly recommend it if you can!
you need to date your husband :)


FAVORITE DIY – Fringey Streamers Tutorial
I’m definitely wanting to incorporate this fun touch to my next party!!
so cute…a great way to jazz up plain ol’ streamers!
I’ve seen people sew streamers together to ruffle the..but i’m liking this look too!
hop over to her blog to see her full tutorial.
FAVORITE TODDLER TOY – cheap but totally awesome
 dollar store Sunglasses.(shown in video below)
 but daddy’s are way more fun to play with……….
 Sophia turns into another person when she puts them on!
haha.. for some reason she does this “cool voice” when 
she wears her shades… amazing right?
daddy wondered where the little fingerprints came from on his sunglasses……..;)

    I love her in those glasses, and that “cool voice?” Too cute. :) That baby shower theme ALMOST makes me want to have another baby just so I can do that theme. Maybe someone I know will get pregnant so I can try it out. AMAZING.
