The Zoo

Aaron has been to the zoo twice in his short life. We have a sweet friend who brings us with her on her zoo pass. The first time we went it was a bit cold and Aaron's stroller faced me so he wasn't able to really see any of the animals. This second time we went I was excited for him to actually see the animals. Aaron however didn't really care. He rides in this stroller quite often but he's never sat like this before. He refused to hold his head up so I tried to prop it with a blanket. 
He just sat there like that through most of the zoo. I tried to get him to look at animals and took him out a few times, but all he would look at was his little friend we were with. The only animal he actually looked at were the bats because they flutter around so quickly. 

Aaron had lunch by the gorillas and I had some much needed friend time. After eating I peeked at Aaron in his stroller and found this little sweetheart. I'd been a little stressed because we were going to miss his morning nap when he usually sleeps an hour and a half to two hours, but he was actually okay. 
The whole car ride home from the zoo he jabbered in the back and experimented with how loud he could get. His friend was worried that he was crying but we kept assuring him that he was just being silly. We had fun at the zoo and I can't wait to go again when Aaron is more aware of the animals.  

Also, it was hilarious to count all of the pregnant women there. My friend is pregnant and we saw at least ten other pregnant women. Mad props to them because I couldn't walk that far when I was pregnant, and that was without a little person to take care of.

Fake

I feel like a lot of times when going through blogger, I'm always pushing the boundaries a bit. A lot of blogs seem to always be happy and awesome and they just won this free product from someone and it's great! And then, I'm over here in my little corner of the blogosphere wondering, hey, should I actually write about this? Is this something that you just pretend like it never happens? Am I the only one this happens to? My favorite moments are when I find someone cutting down those walls and sharing what life is actually like. That they have zits. That they don't have the perfect relationship and baby. That they've struggled with mental health. That they're secretly gross like me. (I took a quiz on buzz feed about how secretly gross are you, and I got pretty gross. In the guise of not being fake, I am sharing this fact with you all!) When I find those blog posts, I instantly feel a connection with that person and will automatically follow them on their life j...

Say Yes?

Well. Today I went dress shopping. And it was a really fun experience! I went a few weeks ago, and that wasn't as fun. I almost fainted because everything was so tight! And I looked like a little girl playing dress up. This time though, I felt sophisticated, it was a much better experience, and I may have found THE dress. I know it's one of these ones, but at the store I thought I was going to get one dress. But as I got home and looked through the pictures again, I think another one will work better and is really THE one. I'm going to sit on it though.  I thought it'd be fun to put the pictures up here and let you all see! Tell me which dress is your favorite! If there's two pictures together, it's the front and back.  How was dress shopping for you?  I like the lace and buttons on this dress     Love the top and flowyness of this dress. Really love the neck, top, and ruching on this dress. Not sure about the train though. This...

Liebster-ing it up!

Funny story. A few days ago I was reading all the blogs I follow like I usually do. And of course I read  Jana's  blog and read about how she had won the Liebster award. I had no idea what it was, so I read her post full of fun facts, and for everyone I kept nodding my head going, I DO THAT TOO! Then today I re-read her blog, and realized that she'd nominated me for the Liebster award as well! It was a very exciting moment. Thank you! So I guess this is how it works, I think, I'm new to this whole thing. I totally just stole this off Jana's blog ;) "The Liebster Blog Award is given to bloggers by bloggers. It is a way to acknowledge each other and say 'you're doing a great job.' It is for blogs with 200 or less followers, so it's also a great way to spread the word about smaller blogs & get them more readers/ followers! When you receive the award, you post 11 random facts about yourself and answer 11 questions from the person who nominated y...
