Just a little snow for fall

Our first snow fall! Ok it’s not even winter yet, and yesterday was a crazy evening driving home in rush hour as the snow came down. Oh and the freezing temperature making the roads icy and horrible to drive in.

 

I really shouldn’t complain, I mean, we had a great Fall and from -18 to +9 tomorrow we all can agree that mother nature is a bit confused ha!

 

I’m soo glad I bought these Sorel boots. Walking from my parking spot to and from work was a piece of cake yesterday evening and this morning.



 

Oh and my leather gloves with the iphone tips. Perfect.

 


 

Yesterday I left work just as the snow began.  I spent 3 hours in the car. Picking up little K from daycare and heading home. We stopped along the way to pick up hot chocolate for me and a grilled cheese for little K. That made sitting in traffic on the hwy a bit better. Little K was asking to go to the bathroom while we were in traffic eek. I told him to hold it. and he did! haha. He was in his pull ups and I was surprised that he held it till we got home! We are in the car a lot! So potty training and car rides… this will be a new challenge for us. If you have any suggestions please leave a comment below!

 


Yesterday was just the first snow fall and it wasn’t THAT bad. We have worse to come. I’m also sending my prayers to all those in Buffalo that got hit really bad. Stay safe and warm. Lets pray our winter takes it easy this year.  

 

I’m trying to be as ready for winter as we can be.

 

Are you winter ready?



***house update. Stucco is done! 


Happy Thursday! Weekend is around the corner!

Friday fun in the city

Last night we had a friends engagement party. I wore a Vince Camuto outfit I purchased last month. This outfit is soo comfy and hugs your body ha! I wore the skirt a couple times before too with different tops (see past posts) but yesterday I wore the cardigan that goes with the skirt. I didn't take a pic of the back, but the back of the cardigan is sheer. I added a black and gold belt, my MK gold tip pumps and my new MK clutch I just got this week! A little gift for me, for having a crazy busy work week! 
This outfit also looks so good with my nude gold tip guess pumps. Next time! 



The event was so nice. They had a singer songwriter for the whole night. The ambiance was intimate and we enjoyed the music and good company. 
Brother inlaws and sister inlaws to be! 

We left the party at 1am and went over to  my brother inlaws house for pizza!

Fall has rolled in so it was a little chilly on the patio but sweaters and a little fire made it all ok! Ha!

Summer is here!

The sun is shining and I'm pretty sure we won't be getting anymore snow haha. 

I still have a long list of must haves for the summer. I haven't worked a summer in a while so my work wardrobe is lacking! Bring on the summer dresses! 

I did buy these baby's tho for casual days. I've been eyeing these for a while!! 


I also need to get our jerseys ready for the World Cup! Only a couple weeks away! 

DH and little K are half ready ha!

Another blog gap!

Again, it's been a couple weeks since I blogged! I miss blogging! I tried to give myself different blog goals to follow too, but nope. Weeks go by and I don't blog. 

What's going on? Well. Our house is on the market, our new home is being built. Working everyday, little k loves daycare and is growing and learning in every blink of my eyes. 

Summer is here finally and the weather is awesome! 

We have been spending a lot of our time having fun ha! We wouldn't have it any other way! 

Family fun! 


Throw in a date night too. 
Going down our top 9 best steak houses in the city. This one is number 5! 4 more to go!

Some 2014 goals

I have a long list of goals for 2014. I haven't sorted them all out just yet. I'm kinda overwhelmed with my list too. 

The simple yearly ones are things like: 
Drop 20lbs or more! Which included weekly working out and healthy diet choices. 
Attend mass more often
Be more organized 
Be more focused on what I want 
Do what makes me happy. Whatever that may be :) 
Spend more time with my family now that I'm going back to work Monday! 

Others include
Potty train K this year! 
Sell the house this spring and move! 
Join a meditation class. 

And some other personal and financial goals I have too. I'll be working on my vision board soon too. 

2013 I was blessed to have stayed home an extra year with my little guy. He has taught me so much this year. Watching him grow and learn new things these past two years of him in my life has been the best years of my life. He makes my world complete, I loveeee my little guy and seeing him so independent these days makes me proud yet sad at how fast he really is growing up. 

Tomorrow I'm back to work full-time and little K loves his daycare. 

The husband and I have a new routine schedule of drop off and pick up and I'm hoping it all goes smoothly! Wish us luck! 

The one thing about back to work that was exciting was shopping for new clothes! I spent a lot more than I expected but hey, it's a new year, new job, new goals, new everything ;) 

Here are some outfits I got! Not the best pics but... 




(Minus the red bra haha oops) 

 
(Eyes closed ;)

I bought 3 pairs of pants, 3 skirts, 8 tops, 3 sweaters, 1 pair of shoes. Whoo! 

Hope you all have a great Monday!

What Fashion Blog do you follow?

Fall is just around the corner, although it still feels like summer here! Which is great too. But as fall is approaching and I'm here still carrying around some baby weight, I'm looking for outfits that will hide or slim down certain areas. I follow many fashion bloggers and they give me inspiration.One of my favorite fashion blogger is Chasing Davies. Do you follow her? Many of my ideas of what to wear or throw together come from her! She is awesome! And a new mama too! What fashion bloggers do you follow? Or are you one? Let me know I'll follow!

Here are 2 outfits I recently bought.

Minus the shoes both outfits are under $50.00!
(Shoes from ShoeDazzle 39.95 plus shipping)

The first outfit I can also add a leopard belt and gold bangles.  I can wear this outfit so many different ways which is what I'm looking to do this fall!

Blazer Winners 16.99 Dress Winners 24.99 Tights H&M 6.50

Jeans Winners 19.99 Shirt H&M 14.99 Belt I had, thin black belt.

Thinking about fall clothes and shoes

I spent my day at my grandparents house with my niece and little Kristian. I was soo tired today so we just stayed in playing on the ipad and watching TV.

I talked to my niece about starting school and she was showing me her new shoes and her new backpack, very cute pink stuff :) haha

I then started thinking of allll the things I need for this coming fall and especially for back to work, it's creeping up.

DH had got me a gift card to the mall as part of my birthday gift, for those things specifically. But when I went to the mall I was overwhelmed. Ya there were a lot of things I liked and wanted, But I had no vision of what I really wanted to wear. What style do I want? I was confused! I haven't really thought about it in a while!

So I decided to follow what the, What Not To Wear show does. Buy a complete outfit from top to bottom. So my goal the next couple weeks is to buy 3 outfits to get me started. Top to bottom! A casual outfit, a work outfit and a going out to dinner outfit.

Buying shoes are the easiest for me so I'll start with the bottom up haha

Some shoes from the Aldoshoes.com site that I have my eye on ;)

A Sunny Friday

At least there is no snow in today's pic. Now all we need is the trees and flowers to bloom and grass to grow and it would be perfect! But the sun is out and we can already feel the energy it brings!

I have a couple days off work and husband can work from home a couple times a week which is great. Today he is working from home so we went for lunch and coffee together...
ok so I didn't choose a healthy choice but some days a donut can't be so wrong, ha!

I've been working on my spring fashion list and boy is it getting long, I may have too many shoes on my list but there are just so many nice shoes out there.

First on my list are coach sneakers. Love these!
and these are on my list from coach too!...
Now I need to hit the malls!

My SIL just sent me this pic of my goddaughter... the cutest little face! Always smiling and laughing. Just made my day!


Hope you are all having a wonderful Friday!

Just love the weekends!

This mornings breakfast at Cora's was delicious! My sister and I met with my BFF for breakfast. It was a nice morning and we had a great time chatting. We talked life and babies, she is due in February and we can't wait to meet her little man!

The husband and his friends went away this weekend, so Saturday I spent my evening in Toronto with my sister. Then on our way back up near my place we decided to have a late dinner. I live north of the city but in a very busy part! All restaurants were about 45 to 60min wait last night. We ended up at Chilies which was the shortest wait. I can say other than the dessert I'm not a fan.

This afternoon we headed to my aunts sale. I bought some cute scarves and a ring. Love my purchases :)

After a long day out we ended it at a sushi restaurant! All you can eat sushi, oh boy!

Can't wait to eat healthier tomorrow and can't wait to work out this week. I think I will add an extra workout this week. 4 workouts are needed!

Hope you all had a great weekend!
