It's been awhile!!

Wow....we've been busy :) I have a few women's listing on Ebay...Patrick had sinus surgery on Monday...I'm hosting a Matilda Jane Trunk Show on Friday....Whew!! Where does the week go?
I will have some more cute pics for you soon! I've gotten a few cuties from Etsy!

Thoughts for Thursday

Today was a bit chilly here in SoCal...I am ready for it to warm up and stay warm!!
We made scones with the kids at school today, almond scones! They LOVED them. I think their favorite part was putting the jam on them by themselves....they thought that was so cool! LOL
Both of my girls called me from school today to pick them up :( I think they just needed some more at home time. Isabelle NEVER does that, so when she called I knew I had to pick her up, and Vivianrose has been a little sensitive lately. She is my emotional one :-)
Vivianrose also had Piano today, boy does she love that!! Her teacher Andrea is a good match for Vivianrose. I snapped a few pics of Vivianrose this afternoon :) LOVE this GenMarie dress....

My Sick Girl

Vivianrose has been sick for 2 days...yesterday she had a fever and a cough. She slept about 1/2 the day. Today she woke up with a slight fever too, but towards the afternoon Vivianrose perked up!! She was up for a Spring Fashion Show...She LOVES the camera! LOL

The cute top is from Dancing Dandelion on Etsy

LOVE this one...from Rose Valley Babies on Etsy

My Favorite!!! Loves Me Not on Etsy


Capri's are GenMarie & Halter from Twist of Lime

Her work is amazing!!

Look at those eyes....

Isabelle was out in the yard the other day and took these amazing pictures!! Just look at how beautiful she is!! Her eyes are just stunning...I can't believe she is 13...she looks so grown-up here...
She is turning into an amazing young lady! I'm so very proud of her :)

Thursday Thoughts

This week has gone by so fast!!! We are getting ready at school for our annual Earth Day pancake breakfast...The kids sing songs, plant flowers and eat pancakes! What could be better at 8 am on Saturday morning? Vivianrose has had so much fun going to her old pre-school all week with me...She is still on Spring Break from 1st grade. She played so much today that she couldn't even keep her eyes open anymore at about 6:30 pm! Now that's a lot of playing.
I was just opening my mail and I got some really cute outfits in the mail today....
I got the perfect twirling dress from Loves Me Not on Etsy.....It is TDF cute!! We got some ruffle pants to complete a few of our Matilda Jane sets...and I got a cute GenMarie Knot top.....
I will post pics of Vivanrose in them tomorrow :)

Happy Easter!

We had a great day today....It was beautiful in Sunny Malibu today....Isabelle and I went to my mom's around noon to start cooking. Isabelle made a YUMMY Lemon Cake, I made the crab legs and mashed potatoes.
Vivianrose was so excited to see Edith in her basket...she hasn't put her down all day! It was a chore to get Isabelle to smile for any pictures!! Moody 13 year old girls....they are tough! LOL

Patrick wasn't feeling well, so he stayed home trying to get better.
We left my mom's and got home about 5:30 (she lives about 5 minutes from us...very nice!)
Both girls had a good time telling Patrick all about the day :)
We are about to watch a movie and snuggle up on the couch...1 more week of Spring Break for the girls....I love having them home!!!

Easter Letter

I am so behind this year!! For Isabelle I'm going out today to get some iTunes GC's, lip gloss and a little bit of candy....Vivianrose saw me browsing on Etsy (a dangerous place! LOL) while I was looking at some cute stuffed animals....Well she saw Edith the Mouse and said she had to have her! LOL
She was determined...she got out some notecards and wrote the Easter Bunny a note!!!
I convo'd the Etsy seller Tiddlywinks to see if they could ship the next day....They said they could...
YEAH!!! I got this cutie in the mail yesterday :)
Vivianrose is going to be so excited when she sees Edith in her Easter Basket!! Not sure what else is going in there yet....Since I'm going out for Isabelle today, we will pick up some more for Vivianrose too.....
Look at this cute note!!!
This is what Vivianrose wrote...
"Dear the Ester Bunny funny Bunny"
"I weant the mouse on the conputere. But just for one of my prbsents"

How cute is that!!!! I'm so excited to see her face when she sees Edith....Her note worked!!

Headed to the Mall looking CUTE!!!

Isabelle went to a friend's house for a sleep-over, so Vivianrose and I had a few errands to do at Target today...and also a return at Janie & Jack...We made it a "Mommy Day"....We ate lunch at the mall...Potstickers...her favorite!! She could eat 6 all by herself. It has been so nice here we've been breaking into our Spring clothes....This cute little skirt from GenMarie was actually from the Fall line, but I think it screams Spring!! The tank and denim jacket are from the Gap.

Lion and Tigers and Bears Oh My!!

We went to the LA Zoo yesterday....We had so much fun!!! My mom and I took Vivianrose, she is on Spring break for two weeks!! Vivianrose was so patient waiting in line...who knew on a Tuesday at 1pm there would be a 30 min. wait to get into the zoo!

And who knew that so many young couples with NO KIDS would be at the zoo! It was Sunny and about 78 yesterday....A great day to breakout our Spring Dresses....That little cutie Vivianrose is wearing is from Mini Boden....LOVE their things check them out at www.bodenusa.com

Vivianrose LOVED the Flamingos!! WOW...they are so beautiful...the colors are amazing!!!

Look at her smile!!!


The Koala's were her FAVORITE!!! But they were all sleeping...can you find him?



The Zebra was also a pretty big hit!!!


The zoo is a place we are going to visit a little more often...Anything to make her smile!!

Easter Egg Hunt

Vivianrose, Momo and I went to a Easter Egg party today...What fun that was!!!!

About 75 kids ready to run around and put as many eggs as they could in their baskets :)
Vivianrose wore a cute dress from GenMarie it's called the Pink Lemonade and her custom ruffles and headband are from GingerLouiseClothing on Etsy.....

Everytime we turned around we saw someone we knew....I guess when your Mom owns the most popular pre-school in Malibu you know a lot of people! LOL
It was HOT today in Malibu...the sun was shining and we just had the BEST time!!!
We had to limit her to 20 eggs to give the little ones a chance! LOL

All in all we had a great day!!

13 Going On 30........

Yesterday April 2nd was my oldest daughter's birthday...She turned 13!!! We had so much fun!!!
Fifteen 13 year old girls having a good time....They went to the beach and ran around....ate so much food it was a bit insane! We ran to the store 3 times for more things to eat! LOL
Then they watched Twilight....always a highlight for 13 year old girls...Edward is pretty dreamy :)
Isabelle got a new MacBook and was so excited!!! She really is a great kid....4.0 GPA, great friends, plays volleyball.....I feel very lucky :)
(Isabelle is in the middle sitting on the rope swing....yes we have a swing in our living room:)
