Excuse me,

and my little absence, I was way too busy kissing babies, staying up late talking to my sister, and completely missing out on any ounce of sleep. I had such a wonderful trip to Odessa, busy, yet wonderful. I am so happy I saw my nieces and nephew to hold me over for a little over 3 weeks when they will arrive back in DFW for a quick stay. I am pretty much drowning in school work trying to prepare for all the papers and tests I have before spring break. I am heading down to a cabin with the boy and his family in two weekends, so while I play catch up but continue to do school work, I might be a little scattered with my posts. But I promise I'll eventually get in the swing of this. In the meantime, enjoy these precious pictures of the cutest littles.

Aren't they the cutest? 

Seeing their sweet faces makes my heart full.

Happy Wednesday! 

Leaving On a Jetplane

and I don't know what to wear.


Hope you sang along with that one. Anyways, I am headed to Odessa to see my babies in less than 48 hours and I am so excited, but it has really got me thinking about airplane attire. I know, I know, it's only 45 minutes, it doesn't matter. But you know that feeling when you've traveled and want to change clothes because you feel gross? Ok maybe it's just me, but I don't want to feel like that. I want to feel cute and be able to wear my outfit the majority of the day. So I decided to gather some of my favorite celebrity airport looks that are cute but maintain the need to be comfortable. Lauren Conrad is my go to travel wear girl, she is always caught lookin so cute at the airport.

and a blazer.

Jennifer Aniston has the right idea with the boyfriend jeans,
slip on shoes, and scarf.

Rachel Bilson cozied in layers with the leggings, scarf,  & boots combo.

Perfection.

She just knows exactly my style when it comes to traveling
or how I want to dress anyways.

I'm thinking on the way there I'm going to rock the leggings, oversized long sleeve t-shirt, with a sweater because it's always cold, and a light scarf that adds a pop of color. Only thing I am hesitant on is boots or flats? I mean boots would be so cute, but what an effort take on and off at security. Still contemplating that one. I'll be back tomorrow with Thursday things, which will be filled with airport necessities.

What do you think? What's your favorite way to travel?

littles.

Just wanted to share a some cuteness of the little bits that steal my heart.

This is little miss priss, Kaitlyn Marie, She is truly my best friend
if thats possible with a 2 year old. 

Baby Madison Rose. Look at the cute little grin.

And this kid, well look at him, he's a stud,
and is stealing hearts left and right with that little smirk and big heart full
of so much sweetness.



Now do you understand why I can't wait to be reunited with these cuties?

Just can't stay away!! 

Countdown begins.

Weekends are good, especially with they include a fancy meal with my boy, and end with brunch. Not too mention, my best friend came into town and we got to spend the night catching up which is always a plus.

I spent more time than planned getting my family's dogs all taken care of. Which included, baths, shots, vaccines, and medicine to get them healthy. But that's ok, because they make pretty great and entertaining car companions.

My favorite attire from this past weekend.

Tunic:Jcrew, Sweater: Cable and Gauge, Leggings:Target,
Boots:Ciao Bella, Watch:Gifted, Fossil

On to the real reason for this blog,

In exactly 4 days, I will be on a 45 minute flight to Odessa to see my big sister and her precious kiddos. Can't wait to hug them. Can you believe it takes 6 hours to drive there, but you can hop on a plane for 45 minutes and be there? Transportation is wonderful. 

In about 3 1/2 weeks, I will be going on a weekend trip with the boyfriend and his family to a cabin in Grapeland, TX. I am excited for a little vacation, and too add its the weekend before the next which is spring break. So definitely looking forward to some travel time and little breaks from school to keep me going. 

Like I said in 4 weeks it's spring break, which by then I will be so glad to have because I always get to get away with my mom and go shopping! 

Have a lot to look forward too, but trying to keep my head up from drowning in school work. 

How was your weekend? What are you looking forward too, anything exciting? 

How can one not be ecstatic to see this little cutie? 

Things Thursday.

Decided to make Thursdays a day for all the current things I am loving.

For starters,

Jason Wu Jersey Dress

Perfect longsleeve tee, I am on the hunt for one perfect to wear with leggings. 

LC Lauren conrad Tuxedo Blazer

Mint skinnies

This perfect revlon combo making the perfect nude lip. 

Loving this colorblock cardi

Thats all for now, but I am sure by next thursday I will have a whole new list of things I am craving after.

The day after.

I always dislike the day after a holiday. It always ends more quickly than I wish. 

Shirt: Hollister, Red Jeans: American Eagle, Rainboots:Sperry
Scarf:From Mama 

I decided that Valentines Day called for some red skinnies and a red flower in the hair. I originally had on some cute nude flats but it was a little muddy outside, so I opted out for the rain boots considering I had to walk across campus. 

I spent the majority of my day going to class, watching how I met your mother, and went grocery shopping to restock my tiny fridge. 

On tuesdays, I always have lab from 5-7, so boyfriend joined me after to at least get to spend some time together on valentines day. We decided to delay our date until the weekend, but for last night, we slipped into a quaint little Italian restaurant. We didn't make reservations, but luckily they said we could have table but we only had an hour. We agreed that was ok as long as they gave us time to eat our food. It was wonderful. Going to a cozy restaurant and just relaxing and talking is really one of my favorite things to do, but still excited to get dressed up and go out this weekend. 

How was your Valentines Day?

Hope it was wonderful.

Unfortunately, playtime is over for me and I have a lot to do get done today, before the weekend arrives tomorrow. 

Dear T,

                 I was constructed for you, and you were molded for me.

You shine so bright it's insane, you put the sun to shame.

Happy Valentines Day! 

So glad to call you my best friend.
