Hello everyone and so sorry I have been MIA this past week! My H and I were up in Austin again this weekend and I convinced H to stop at The Domain mall (an all-outdoor mall) before we drove back to Houston. First off, here is a picture of me with an adorable puppy named Sunny! One of our host's friends had just gotten him and he was too ...
Five Things (on a Tuesday)
My yummy breakfast Sunday morning--- gluten-free waffles, Nutella & fresh strawberries: A dress I tried on (and didn't buy) at Banana Republic on Sunday. It's a size 0 (?????) which is insane. Dear Banana Republic, please start sizing your clothes properly---it's really awful that someone my height and weight could fit into a ...
Home Tour: Updated Photos (Full Rooms!)
As promised, I'm doing a post with more home photos that focus on the rooms in our home---whereas my last post was a little more focused on decor/details. We had one showing already and here's to hoping that momentum will continue! Entryway Living Room/Dining Area/Kitchen Master Bed/Bath Guest Bed/Bath Well, that's it! The ...
Latisse Update: Longer, Thicker Lashes
This Latisse update is extremely long overdue! The product has definitely done what it promises---my lashes are longer and thicker. I am enjoying the results and I am still on my first bottle even though it's been like 8 weeks! I also got a second bottle for free through a promo they did. This product is costly, so I ...
Weekend Shopping & I Got Glasses!
Well hello there ladies! I hope everyone's weekend is off to a great start! This morning, H and I went to our bootcamp class and did a super-intense workout. That was followed by a skinny vanilla latte and egg white/feta/spinach wrap from Starbucks (yum! and FYI---the egg white/feta/spinach wrap is under 250 calories and is totally ...
OOTD: Target Dress #3
It's time for Target dress #3 to make its debut! This is just a simple black dress with pockets at the front/sides. It comes with a piece of the same black fabric that you can wear as a belt, but I opted to wear my own belt with it. I love that it's so long, even on my tall frame. I got a size small, for reference, so I'd size down on this ...

It retails for $19.99: Dress- Target Cardigan- Express Shoes- Me Too @ DSW Key Necklace- Forever 21 I just love the detail at the bust on this dress, kind of makes it feel more special than a simple cotton dress ...
OOTD: Target Dress #1
This is going to be a quick one because I have a 6am workout and need to go to sleep.

Crew Shoes- "Me Too" @ DSW As you can see, the dress has a ...

In today's Motivation Monday, you'll meet Stephanie. A working mom to two (awesome) kids who has lost over 100 lbs. You read correctly, over 100 lbs! I was so inspired by her story that I just had to ask her to share it with us. Stephanie writes a blog called GooberMonkey where she chronicles her weight loss and writes about her ...
Scrubbed Clean: Prepping Our Home for Sale
I don't know how much I'll manage to type in this post... but I'll try my best. Ladies, I am pooped with a capital "P!" H and I cleaned our home for the entire weekend, morning, noon and night. I have never cleaned so hard in my entire life. I was full-on wearing rubber gloves, breathing in Kaboom! fumes as I scrubbed my bathroom grout ...
