around town with a toddler by theforgestyle

so J is working today and Logan and I are having a lazy day at home. if it weren't snowing outside I'd put on this outfit, pack him in the car and run some errands... my to-do list is crazy long. but hey, a lazy day at home sounds good to me too.

what are you doing today?

also, I've been tweeting a lot lately and finally starting to like it. it's actually a good way of keeping track of my favorite people. why dontcha follow me here and say hi sometime :)

The hubby said I looked very 1970's today. He also said that he liked jeans with flap pockets on me and that he's been trying to get me to wear some for years. Well, I hate to say it but I've had these for years! Guess I don't wear them enough or he just doesn't notice. Whatever that means... 

On another note, thanks for all your awesome comments :)) I love hearing from you and I've been trying hard to reply to everyone and visit your blogs. If I've missed you I am so sorry. Please come back and I'll catch you next time. Also, make sure you are not a no-reply comment blogger so that I can reply directly to you in an email. Thanks! If you do not know what that means or whether you are one, check out this post.

Yep, another outfit post today because yesterday was pretty boooooring overall. We went grocery shopping and to Target. Then I went back to Target because they had diapers on clearance and I left my coupons at home. Exciting, I know.

The little guy went to bed early so we watched Last Man Standing and Kim Kardashian was in it. Really? Then we watched the first hour of that new show The River and then Parenthood. The hubby passed out in the middle of that show...
We lead an exciting life these days ;)

This outfit is a little JCrew-esque don't you think? Check out my awkward hand too, haha.

{life} a trip to the zoo

The Zoo was a blast. Logan loved crawling through the tunnel and even got to pet a sting ray. The weather was perfect and the Zoo almost empty. The Gorillas were fascinating yet I couldn't help feel sad for them they looked so lonely and bored in there. Their human features were almost eerie.

Isn't this weather just wonderful lately? At least here in Pittsburgh it's been almost like Spring come early. I guess it's supposed to get cold starting on Wednesday but maybe if I just don't believe it, it's not gonna happen???

We went to the Zoo today and had a blast. There were barely any people there so it was a total no stress outing for us. I'll be posting some pictures later today.

I also wanted to take the time and say thanks to the ones of you who have started re-following me at my new home here. I appreciate all of your comments and feedback :)

As for this outfit. It's one of my faves because it's so comfortable. I absolutely adore the Chloe flats and the Prada quilted purse with the chain is such a classic and goes with mostly anything. I love having pieces like these that never seem to go out of style.

{Life} over the weekend

Our weekend was busy but it was a good one. We spent lots of family time together.
My MIL stayed here Friday night into Saturday morning and helped out a ton. We FaceTimed with Daddy. Then Saturday morning, even though the weather was gray, cold and snowy, I bundled up the little man and we picked up the hubs from the airport. Afterwards we went to the South Side Works in the Burgh for the I made it Mine! Handmade market, some shopping (vintage sheets galore for the shop) and a "German" lunch at Hofbräu Haus. Logan got lots of attention from the ladies ;) Saturday night we relaxed on the couch by a cozy fire, with a cupa tea.
Sunday was cleaning and cooking day thanks to a super well behaved babe and we had a few friends and family members over for the Super Bowl. My closet got a little cleaning (it's still bad), I managed to cut my bangs :) and paint my nails. Fresh sheets on the bed. I made chocolate dipped peanut butter pretzels, buffalo chicken dip, bbq sausages and cabbage&noodles. I think I never sat down for a minute that day and we fell into bed with full bellies and were out in a sec.

Today is another beautiful day so we're going to the Zoo.
