No rhyme or reason to these pics. I got a new phone (B has now broken mine 3 times!! – you think I would learn by now 🙂 and was just looking through pics and thought I’d share the random things from the last couple weeks.

His cheesiest of cheese but it kills me how much I love him! I swear this kid smiles on point. He will be having the biggest melt down or doing something naughty and I will B like “B knock it off or you’re going to time out!” and he will bust out this smile and I can’t help but bust out laughing. He is pure trouble.

 I have so many pics from when Mara and Wes were minis carrying pumpkins. I don’t know why but the pumpkin patch pictures are always so special to me.

BURGUNDY CAPE | BURGUNDY OVER THE KNEE BOOTS | BEIGE HANDBAG | DENIM

It’s a toss between burgundy and olive for my favorite colors for fall. My feet have been getting more sore lately, so I have been wearing flats more than usual. These over the knee boots are my favorite. I got this color last year and loved them so much I got the burgundy this year. I know they are a splurge but I wear mine 2-3 days out of the week. Worth the investment, but here is a more budget friendly alternative.

B is obsessed with music! Whether we are in the car, a restaurant, the mall, a bathroom, wherever, the second he hears a beat or any sort of song he shakes it. Even if it’s the most random music you would never dance to he throws his hands up and starts laughing. Cody sent me this pic the other day when he was home with him with the message “this song goes out to you mom” and it melted my heart. And for the record it’s a huge victory if anyone makes it out of the house with matching socks 🙂

TAN SHRUG | DISTRESSED DENIM | FRINGE BOOTIES | SUNGLASSES || CODY’S OUTFIT: DENIM JACKET | BLACK DENIM | SILVER WATCH | SUNGLASSES

The other day I posted a picture of Cody and I on Instagram and someone was commenting about how they were tired of all the smiles and wanted to see more real life. I hope you all know I by no means want to portray our life to be perfect. There are days Cody drives me nuts and I sure as heck know there are days I’m crazy and emotional over nothing and he’s probably like she’s crazy! I just obviously don’t have my camera out during those moments and would feel weird posting a picture of myself crying or something. I think everyone goes through struggles and honestly I am thankful for the hard times because it always makes me appreciate the good ones. I’ve been trying to figure out how to incorporate some of those up and down moments into the blog… so just know it’s on my mind… just figuring out how to loop it all in.

SHOES (SIMILAR HERE)

Pink. Suede. Louboutins. A shoe lover’s dream.

PUMPKIN SWEATSHIRT | DENIM | FRINGE BOOTIES | SUNGLASSES  || B’S OUTFIT: PUMPKIN SHIRT (SIMILAR HERE) | HUNTER BOOTS

I think we wore this twinner outfit three of four times so far. I tried to get Cody to wear a pumpkin shirt too when we were in Oregon and he just laughed. Looking back I can see how that may have been taking it too far lol, but hey twinning is winning 😉 Also these fringe booties have been on my posts a lot. I am obsessed with them!

Wes lost his first tooth this weekend!! We were at lunch and he realized it was loose, then literally an hour later we were eating donuts and it fell out! Mara’s took weeks to fall out once they came loose. He was SOOSOOOOO excited!! We turned the rest of the day into a party and let him pick whatever he wanted to do. We went for a hike to this little waterfall, let him veg out on candy, then pick out a new toothbrush for the big day 🙂

BLUSH KNIT SWEATER || WHITE DISTRESSED DENIM || LACE UP HEELS ||SILVER WATCH

This was probably one of my favorite outfits of all time. You can see more pics and the full outfit post here.

Ok this is a throwback from last year when B and I were coordinating in our monkey-banana costume (I swear the only way I know to spell banana is from Gwen Stefani’s song B-A-N-A-N-A-S!) but I am soooo excited for Halloween because I feel like this year he will actually get what’s going on.  Man I miss those chubby little cheeks!

Gosh I feel like he’s such a little boy these days. He makes all these silly faces and has so much personality (sometimes it’s pure attitude!) but I die over his little hunters! Hunters and Converse were the first pair of shoes I got for B when I knew I was having a boy.

Hope you all are enjoying your week! Lots of love!

XX,
Christine
