Today we went to the Swiss Days in St. George and went to the car show.  We had kilo italian ice and a yummy tropical punch drink and spent our day looking at old, fancy cars.  Archer loves to go out and about and it was better then sitting home on a Saturday.  Afterwards, we hit Target and got Archer some new winter clothes, a sippy cup and you can't leave without a new toy.  We ate at Olive Garden and T is now building me a brand new dining table!! Yay!  I cannot wait to get a new, bigger one in there and I love that he is building it.  I love having a handy husband that can build just about anything and I love having a dining room with a soon to be big table for us to sit down and enjoy dinner time together.  Todays outfit was based around the fact that A. its still 90 degrees outside so warm enough for short sleeves & sandals but B. I want fall and cooler weather so I managed jeans instead of shorts/capris.

The top is a new purchase from Maurices the other day and is so soft.  It is a suede material and I love the floral print.  I am becoming obsessed with floral print.

My jeans I couldn't find on Bohme's website but they are flying monkey and the boyfriend style.  You can find a similar jean here. 

Sandals are a couple years old but are American Eagle brand.  They haven't worn out and are super comfy.


Stroller is a Jeep Adventure Jogging Stroller.  It is my favorite stroller ever made and I am so glad I purchased it.  Since purchasing they have came out with an newer model and I so wish I had it, but I love the one I do have.

Archer is wearing a Tee from Charlie & Chomper and his shorties are from Monsters Under My Bed Co and moccs are Freshly Picked.

Hope you all had an awesome Saturday!

September Favorites ||

It is almost October, I cannot even believe that.  Archer just turned 7 months old and I cannot even believe that.  September flew by and I have a bunch of monthly favorites that I want to share.

Beauty & Style ||

1. Too Faced "born this way" foundation.  I ran out of my foundation and went to Ulta to buy a new one..  They talked me into buying the too faced, born this way foundation and I am so glad I did.  It is one of my favorite foundations and covers but also feels light weight.  I don't like foundation that is cakey and thick, but I like it to cover.  This does just the trick.

2. Naked Smokey Palette // I bought this palette at a Ulta Urban Decay event and I LOVE it.  It is super pigmented and works good for smokey eyes.  It has every color that I would wear, and has glimmer & also a couple matte shadows.

3. Lorac Unzipped Gold Palette / I purchased this little beauty off the app POSH.  Someone swatched it and was selling it for half price!! So I snagged it and I love it.  The colors are so pigmented and metallic.  I get so many compliments on my eye shadow.

5. Babe Extensions // I love babe hair and I have worn their hair before but I just recently went and purchased new 22 inch extensions and I just love babe hair.

6. Alex & Ani Bracelets // My friend Barbie got me hooked on these and now I am obsessed.  I have three of them but I am wanting more!  I purchased mine used off of POSH because I didn't want to pay full price for one and the ones I loved were last seasons.  Currently I have a feather, a seahorse in honor of my niece who passed away, and a half of heart with friends.  The other half with Best is with my best friend Kenadee. (throwing it back to middle school haha.)

7. Jamberry // I got hooked with jamberry from a friends party and I decided to sign up to sell it myself.  I absolutely love how they look on my  nails and they work so much better then nail polish.

Home ||

1. Jersey Sheets from Target.  I just upgraded my sheets and picked out these jersey sheets from target and I am loving them.  They are stretchy, soft and feels so good to snuggly up in!

2. Bath & Body Works "Caramel Pumpkin Swirl" candle+wall flowers.  This scent is oh so yummy and I filled my whole house with wall flowers + candles and it smells amazing.

3. Chalkboards || I have always liked chalkboards but i am kind of obsessed now.  I have them all over my home and I just purchased a calendar style chalkboard and I love it.

4. Magic Erasers || These aren't too new but they take anything off.  That cute chalkboard I just mentioned above, yeah well I Accidentally wrote on it with permanent marker (i thought i was a white chalkboard marker) and well nothing would take it off.  I almost just threw the chalkboard away when I tried a magic eraser and it came right off!!

 5. Honest Company Diapers || I absolutely love these diapers for Archer.  Not only are they the cutest diapers ever made but they are just so amazing.  He never leaks or blows out and have I mentioned I am in love with their cute prints? I also LOVE their cleaning line. I use the cleaning spray and it smells so good and works amazing.  Plus I love that it is all natural so if I use it to clean anything of archers and he puts it in his mouth he will be okay!

6 month update on Mister Arch ||

I cannot believe that 6 months ago (actually its more like 7 because tomorrow he will be 7 months old but I'm a terrible slacking mom and just got to this) anyways, that 6 months ago you were born.  It literally has flown by in the blink of an eye and I miss your tiny newborn stages but the stage your at now is SO much fun.  You are becoming quite the little person and I am seeing your personality shine through each day and it is so rewarding to be your mom.

Size | Archer is in size 3 diapers & 9-12 month clothing. He isn't super chunky but he's super built, like solid like.  He is weighing at about 20 lbs and is 26.5 inches tall.

Hair | His hair has really thickened this last month.  It is a mix between a light brown and blonde color.  Some days it looks like its going darker, other days it looks like it going lighter!

Eyes | He has his momma's blue eyes!  He always gets compliments about how pretty they are! I LOVE IT!

Sleeping | His bedtime is about 8:30 PM and he sleeps until we get up for work around 7:00 ish.  He takes about 2 naps a day.

Eating | This last month he hasn't wanted anything to do with purred baby food.  He just wants to eat real food so we have been introducing more solids to his diet.  He eats pretty good and is chewing everything even though he has no teeth yet! favorite foods: bananas, rice a roni, spagetthi, mac and cheese & sliced ham.
