Baby Fashion Finds for Under $10!

I'm definitely one for a sweet deal on baby clothes for a few reasons.   One being that I know the likelihood of the item getting covered in some sort of bodily fluid is HIGH.  Let's not kid ourselves, here.  Two is, of course, that they grow out of them so quickly!  Camden is already in size 6 month clothes.  He's three months old.  Enough said.  And three being that you can find so many cute things for great prices!   All of the items below are $10 or below! They are extremely affordable, just adorable, and you won't feel too bad if it doesn't last longer than a few months.

Baby Boy   Dark Blue Cotton Cap - $4.95 //  Green Poplin Shorts - $6.95  // Blue T-Shirt with Buttons - $7.95 // Turquoise T-Shirt with Printed Text - $3.95 // Anchor Bodysuit - $6.00 // Bright-Nite Soft-Sole Sneakers for Baby - $9.94 //  Orange Cotton Shorts - $9.95 //  Turquoise Swim Trunks - $9.95

Baby's First Roadtrip

This past weekend our little family set out on our first road trip together, determined to find a home for us to live in while in North Carolina.  I was nervous, of course, to take a less than three month old on a five hour car ride (one direction) and then tote him along to multiple appointments, only to make that long drive home a few days later.   To all of our surprise, it ended up going extremely well! Camden did fantastically and we found our home!  A little duplex with hard wood floors, surrounded by dense trees in the small town of Mebane, North Carolina.  To say we are excited is an understatement.   What a change of pace North Carolina is from Maryland.  The homes are spaced much further apart, everyone seems to move a little slower, the small little towns are surrounded by forests and farms, and there are very few homes that don't have a large front porch with adorable rocking chairs and hanging planters.  The restaurant selection isn't huge.  Biscuitville, Waffle House, Bojangles, and Cracker Barrel were plentiful. No, I'm not kidding, Biscuitville is a real thing.  Oh yeah, and everyone addresses you as ma'am or sir with a southern accent.  It's adorable.    We offset the hours of driving and home appointments with lots of naps and room service in our hotel room in Raleigh.  It was so nice to just relax and not have to worry about laundry or cooking or cleaning! On our way home from North Carolina we decided to swing by Washington D.C. to see the tail end of the peak season of the Cherry Blossom Festival.  It was so beautiful, I can't really describe it and our photos definitely do it no justice.  Cam was slathered in sunscreen but somehow I was still psychotically nervous about him getting sunburned (#newmomprobs) so we only saw a tiny portion of the blossoms but boy, was it beautiful.   Here are a few photos of our trip according to my iPhone.  What would I do without the thing... seriously, though?

Happy Thursday babes!

The Prettiest Nail Color You Ever Did See...

Attention everyone.  Your search for the perfect spring nail color is over.   The name of the color is "find me an oasis" by Essie and it will change your nail game...forever.

 I'm being dramatic for a reason, I promise.  The first time I put it on, it immediately reminded me of Lupita Nyong'o's incredible Prada dress she wore to the Academy Awards this year.  And let's be honest... who doesn't want to feel like Lupita Nyong'o?

 When you're done twirling your hands around the room, holding up your pretend princess dress, try the other colors from the Essie Resort 2014 collection! They're all pretty great.

Happy Tuesday and all hail Lupita!!
