One Good Week

Serious about playing in the water

I took a blogging break last week - as usual, when I have a 'blog break' it's totally unplanned.  Life just gets in the way of me and my laptop!

So let's see........what happened the week of June 6th:

  • had our first HOT HOT days of summer and went to the splash-park for the first time this summer (and the first time ever with Gemma, she LOVED it).


Look at my big boy and then those legs on Gemma!

  • My Mom's Birthday - Happy 49th again Mom!
  • My Birthday - yes, 29 again!


Me and my wonderful Birthday dinner organizer, my husband!
As you can see, I wore 'the dress' that I blogged about a few weeks ago - it was FAB!   Can't wait to find another excuse to wear a hot pink dress......
  • was offered a full time position at Wonder! as the Senior Apparel Buyer (infant and children's apparel and shoes), wahoo!

  • accepted the full time position at Wonder!, double wahoo!

  • sadly notified my sales managers at LSpace and PilyQ that I can't be their midwest rep anymore (tiny tears, these women are the best to work for and I truly enjoyed doing this for the short time that I did)

  • ate a scrumptious Sweet Mandy B's cupcake

  • received a BEAUTIFUL new David Yurman ring from my hint-taking husband... ;-)

  • had an amazing birthday dinner with GREAT friends at Piccolo Sogno; we sat on their amazing patio complete with 3 heat lamps because somehow, on June 11, the high was only 65 degrees!  Oh the Midwest, I love/hate you.




  • at the birthday dinner, I must mention that my husband ate not one, not two, but three entrees.  Seriously.


  • spent the night at the Westin downtown after said birthday dinner so we could both enjoy some amazing wine and not have to designate a driver, therefore sleeping until whenever we felt like it


  • for us, 'sleeping in' is now defined as simply not waking up to 'Mama!!!!  Daddy!!!!! I'm ready to get up!!!!'

  3. Awesome week girl! I am super excited to go to the grand opening of WONDER! Keep me posted. Freaking out too about the two HUGE scores you have for the store too.

    PS, Gemma is just too delicious. I want to have a chub off tho with her and Ruby... I kinda think Ruby might have Gemma on this one. We weigh-in for 6mo Monday. I am guessing close to 20lbs already. Aren't they supposed to be 1 and 20lbs?
