This and That

Today I'm sharing just a little "this and that".

- These lucky ducks - 

Congratulations to Katie Field (katiegorgon2 email address) and Kim Kauffman (ekakauffman email address) for winning the Two Little Bees Boutique $25 gift cards!!!  I can't wait to see what y'all pick!!!  Shoot me an email and I'll get you your prizes!!!

- This girl -

This girl gets cuter every. single. day.

Like at Sam's Club...

And in the car after Sam's Club :)

and while drinking a yogurt smoothie like a serious toddler.  I mean.

And running down the sidewalk :)

- This Top -

Y'all.  I'm in love.  With a shirt.  And I'm not ashamed.

This is the West End Top from Anthropologie - it's no longer available in this rust color, but there's still a GORGEOUS mint color that every single one of you need ASAP.  And it's $30! GO! GO! GO!

- That Headwrap -

Griffin has several headwraps from Ruby Blue and I recently got us a matching leopard set.  My dirty hair has never looked better.  Y'all will be seeing lots of this :)

- This polish -

Essie's Mojito Madness is my current favorite.  Ignore the 5 day old polish job and old lady hands :)

So fun, right?

- That Sale! - 

I talk about Matilda Jane A LOT and if you typically tune me out - tune in this one time :)

You read that right, people!!!  EVERYTHING.  EVERY. THING. is 35% off.  And free shipping.  AND if you spend $150 you get a free hobo bag!  If a hobo bag isn't your thing - it would make a great library bag, pool bag or even a great mother-in-law gift :) 

Go online to the MJ site, browse the collections, and as you find things you want - add them to your wishlist.  When your wishlist is complete, please email it to me (dave-and-andrea@hotmail.com) as well as my Trunk Keeper (katkempson@matildajaneclothing.com).  Get your lists in by Saturday at noon so we can make sure everyone gets everything they want before sellouts happen.  Also... items that were previously only available to Janes are now available to everyone (and on sale!) so add those to your wishlists as well.

- This Post - 

In case you've missed it on Facebook - PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE go read THIS post by Jessica Turner at The Mom Creative.  I would be lying if I said I didn't cry when I read it.  Bathing suit season is not my favorite season but - truth be told - it's not about me. :)  I'm taking Jessica's words to heart this year.

I refuse to miss my children’s high-pitched, pool-induced giggles because of my insecurities.

I refuse to let other women’s judging eyes at the pool prevent me from exposing their eyes to the wonder the sun glittering on the water.

I refuse to let my self-image influence my children’s.

I refuse to sacrifice memories with my children because of a soft tummy.

Because at the end of the day, it is not about me.

It is about my kids.

On that note, I'm off to spend the morning with my kiddos and besties at the pool :)

Happy Friday, friends!!!
