Jeans

Remember how a week after Tillie was born I posted on facebook that I was wearing my regular jeans?  Yeah, well, I haven't worn them since.  No, I've not been wearing maternity sizes, I bought new jeans in a different size.  I've found that I don't like Gap and Old Navy jeans lately.  They just don't fit me right.  And, I don't want to drop any money on designer denim because hopefully this size is just temporary.

I found new jeans I like, at American Eagle of all places.  They have great customer service on their online site.  Free shipping and free returns.  I had a coupon for 20% off too.  The best part?  Their jeans are cheap!  Regular price is $29.50-$49.50.

I ordered one of every style and had a fashion show for my mom and Tillie.  Two different styles were winners for me. The Artist Jean. The Skinny Jean.

No Teeth

It doesn't even look like we're anywhere close.  That doesn't mean, however, that Tillie doesn't like to chew on anything she can get her hands on.  Sophie's a popular choice.

As is this raspberry.

I think I'm going to try it.

Trick or Treat!

Davenport University opened up their dorms to trick or treaters tonight. My dad and I took the Kiz and Tillie. Trick or Treating with a baby is sweet; you get the candy! (My roommates and I did the same thing with 9 month old Kizie in 2002.)

My sister the gnome.


My baby the giraffe.

Yes, it is early.

That was a photo of my darling daughter from 15 minutes ago, at 6:30am. It's about 1.75 hours into our ridiculously awesome morning party.

Apparently 5am is the new 7:30a. No bottles, snuggles, rocking, or even sleeping in mommy's bed could convince this girl it was still bedtime.

That Quickly, Hey?

Tonight Tim and I are going out for dinner for our 2nd anniversary. We're going to Red's on the River in Rockford. So, I went down to my closet when Tillie was taking a nap to find a nice outfit to wear. As it seems, all the clothes that fit me are simple knits. I only own "Mom Clothes" already?

*sigh* I used to have a wardrobe to envy. Well, I still do. It just doesn't currently fit me.

Someday gorgeous clothes, I will wear you again. I just hope it's when you're still in style!

Just to prove she's not always so serious
