We celebrated June Gloom with a…
We found a magical jewel in the middle of the street!
We watched a tiny ant with quiet wonder…
We did a bit of pole dancing…
Side note:
I have always loved skirts. In grade school there were years I refused to wear pants. I was/am a girly girl. See…
I think my figure looks better in skirts. Smaller waist accented and child bearing hips camouflaged.
Skirts make you feel beautiful

Shop for tees here.
You are in the grocery store.
You put your diaper bag next to baby.
Baby flings the contents of your wallet throughout the store.
You put the diaper bag in the cart, it gets covered with food and fixins’.
You get to the checkout you hold up the line searching for your coupons.
Use a carabiner (rock climbing hook) to clip your bag to the cart!!
I got my carabiner at REI. It has flowers on it š
I keep it attached to the strap of my diaper bag. It clips to anything… stroller, cart & toddler (except for the toddler).
These pix were taken on a recent trip to one of my favorite places, IKEA! 
~May you remember the men and women 
Call friends and family who have served our great country today!
“Memorial Day was first established in 1868 in order to honor the soldiers who had fallen during the Civil War. It was initially only recognized by first NewYork and then the remainder of the northern states, and wasn’t followed by the south until after World War I.”
(Info found here.)
Get settled.
I’m not the best lunch packer (as some of you might remember Cora Jane gnawing on a potato at the pool). This time I packed leftover lasagna and one paper towel.
Cora is wearing the Pink Snowboarder Lid in pink size newborn-1-year-old.I cannot stand dingy dish cloths!
I chucked all my old white ones and bought colored ones ($2.99 for a bundle of 12 at TARGET).
This reminded me of something Suzie says,
“Don’t wash towels with fabric softener!”
What!?!?!? (you are thinking) But I want soft fluffy bath towels!
The tale goes something like this: Fabric softener will leave a waxy build up on the fibers of the towel that will make them less adsorbent over time.
Yes folks, this is true.
But don’t fret.
Suzie also says, “If you are going to use fabric softener just strip your towels every 3-6 months or so by washing them on hot hot hot.”
(FYI You’ll notice it more with your dish towels, dish cloths and washcloths. I rarely use softener with those.)
All I ask for on Mother’s day is a picnic.
Time with the kiddos and hubby.
Because time just goes too fast.
I wore my new cover-up from Sam’s club.
Love to my kiddos for making me a Mommy.
You go to the beach.
Try this quick and easy fix for double towel bliss!
Lay towels right side together and sew just inside the thick ends of the towels’ seams.
Ta-Da! No sandy bums…
I’m adding this to The Lazy Organizer’s Talk About Tuesday. Just found you while blog hopping and you header pic alone had me hooked!!.
Now I’m linking up with Tightwad Tuesday with Canadagirl because a double beach towel will run you up to $50+ bucks… you can make this out of towel you have.
