Morning favorites!!!

Many of you already know that Jeff & I are living with my parents.

So far so good. 

We plan to be here for the next year & a half to save money for our first house & to pay off some debt while were at it. 

So far so good.

It's been really nice having my parents around, they LOVE having Lucille around too!

Lucille is always so so cute in the mornings. 

Like most children, she is happy, playful, giddy, & well rested.

She loves my moms two dogs (cocoa & susie)

I on the other hand NOT SO MUCH! (Sorry mom!)

I like dogs from afar, & I like dogs when they are puppies. I also like dogs when they are not mine, & I don't have to take care of them or clean up after them. 

Which for the most part, since I have been here, its been good.

Except for the 2 times they got into Lucille's Diaper gene filled with about 30+ old stinky diapers.

(whats up with dogs and poop!?)

Yep! To say the least... I wasn't here to clean it up. YES! But I heard it was pretty awful.

Anyways... Here are two of the most recent morning photos!!

Also. I am in LOVE with this below:

I want to frame it & put it in our house.

When we get one!

I'm one of those moms!

I never wanted to be one of those Moms that always posted photos of their child,

BUT

How can I not when she is so cute! Look how cute she is in this outfit!?

This picture, I couldn't resist it. BUT I look totally pregnant , & I am totally not! Don't judge. I could loose a few lbs.

I love this man! And I love how long my hair is getting!

IN-N-OUT.

Many of you know that my hubby, Jeff works for the every to fabulous 

In-N-Out Burger!! 

They came out with a cute onesie & asked if Lucille could model it off.

I thought it was pretty dang cute!

on a side note:

I love love LOVE this couch & all the colorful pillows. 

I want to make all of these pillows for our house ( When we get one)

I'm really into colors, & the sequence of the rainbow colors right now!

Slacker!? I'd say...

We have been recuperating from last weeks sickness.

Good news is that we are feeling pretty much 99% better. Still  snotty (see below for proof) but better.

I have all of my photos to share, now its a matter of actually doing it.

I have a long day Saturday with 3 clients, & a wedding,  Sunday I'd like to get Lucille's B-day invitations finished, so don't count on me posting for at least another 3 days. 

I just wanted to check in & share this picture below!

IT'S FRIDAY, FRIDAY, FRIDAY :)

Number Six

What are your remedies!?

Still sick over here... been taking a lot of vitamins. 

Call me crazy, 

(or at least I called Jeff crazy when he told me this) 

But I've been doping myself up with LOTS of garlic, honey & lemon. 

Gross!? I know, but it really helps!!

Along with Vitamin C, Umka, & Elderberry.

What are some of your remedies when you are sick?

Favorite number FIVE:

Since Lucille has been sick, her schedule has been all whacked out. She normally goes down at 8:30ish. But this night she was wide eyed & bushy tailed until 9:45. 

I loved how chill she was. I caught her & Jeff cuddling.. 

(If you know my daughter, she is SO not a cuddler, & if you know my husband, he is SUCH a cuddler)

I also adore her crossed feet & her belly sticking out of her PJ's.

I love these two so much.

I know I'm behind 1 day!!

So yesterday was a long day. It was a good long day though.

Well, Friday night we were up on & off all night long with our poor Lucille. She has gotten a BAD case of Bronchitis. :( Its the saddest thing in the entire world.

I had to wake up pretty early on Saturday, I had a wedding in Palm Springs.

It was a pretty RAD wedding too at The Viceroy. If you have never been to Pal Springs, PLEASE go.. It has become one of Jeff & Mine's favorite places. 

After my wedding We headed down to Wildomar for Jeff's nieces baptism. I was not super excited about going especially since I was up all night long, had a long day at my wedding & to top it off I think I have come down with something too, BUT I was so thankful we went. It was such a great experience to see our niece get baptized &  to see how happy she was for making that decision.  We love Haylee!

I only took one picture yesterday & it was of Lucille at the house after the baptism. 

She was actually feeling a lot better, & we were so pleased. 

So here's to I believe #3 of 365!

TODAY! 

Sunday.

We were excited when these two lovebirds (My brother Michael & his Fiance Ana) 

Came in town to visit  us.

We decided to get out of the house & head down to the Beach. The weather was gorgeous & the company was even better!!

Here are my faves of our little family!!

#4 OF 364.

Oh & BTW Lucille took her very first 12 steps today. Kind of exciting right!?

Just a few things...

First.

I have a sick child on my hands.

so.not.fun.

Our poor little girl has come down with something awful & it's the saddest thing I have ever seen. 

p.s. This is not my child!

Secondly.

We got out. Went to Fashion Island.. We came upon this cute children's clothing store & this was written on the wall:

" Making the decision to have a child - It's Momentous.

It is to decide forever to have your heart go walking outside your body."

-Elizabeth Stone

I loved this. Especially on days like today.

And Thirdly.

This bad boy completed my day. 

( Why do I always console myself with something sweet!? I need to stop this habit!

 At least I shared it with Jeff)

.Cherry, Coconut, & Dulche De Leche Gelato!!

Holy Guaca-MOLE!!!

I got my first ever mole removed today. It has been a super awkward mole that appeared right after I had Lucille. It was an ugly little thing on the inside of my right ankle. I wasn't too sure about actually getting it removed especially since the Dr. said it wasn't a bad mole, but when he said "Well, it will only get bigger." I was like TAKE IT OFF! As nervous as I was, it was a total breeze and a half. Not that I can do it everyday, but it wasn't nearly as bad as I had imagined.

Moving on..

#2 of the "365 challenge" goes to Jeff...
 For being who he is, & that is incredible!!

Husband shaved today, & I like kissing him when he's clean shaven, plus he wore a suite while being a daddy. Nothing hotter then this. I just love his guts!!

(Doesn't Lucy look so much like Jeff!?)

Also.. These made me smile real BIG! 

I was looking for a new case for my very fabulous iphone on Uncommon & came across this rad artist. Her name is Steph Baxter, & I adore her work. I want to print up a few & frame them for Lucille's walls. 

I guess it starts today!

I started it again & I am very excited about it. I started my second blog. 

I promise this one will be way more exciting.

After almost 2 years of not posting, & blog stalking so many other amazing bloggers, I have been inspired.

Inspired to blog again. 

This is basically to share what makes me happy, whats going on in our lives, & hopefully to inspire others, as so many have inspired me.

So here it starts, my first post...

My lovely cousin Stephanie has passed along the "365 challenge". It is basically a photo a day to share what makes your day great & makes you a better person. 

Well today this little stink pot made my day. Well she actually makes everyday great, but today as I was in a bit of a funk, she made me thankful to be her mom ( I know, total cheese!) but for reals. being a Mom to Lucille is pretty much awesome!! She is such a joy, & so silly to hang out with.

I'm excited about this, & I hope you are too!
