As a work from home mom, sometimes it’s a miracle if I take a shower, let alone get out of my walking clothes.  Yes, this blog has helped inspire me to into normal clothes more often than not, but I still have those days when 7pm rolls around, I catch a glimpse of myself in the mirror and think “YIKES!”  Then I’m left to wonder if I even brushed my teeth… :{  Other days, I just feel like putting on some heeled booties and wearing a top that I’ve been “saving for a special occasion” for no real occasion at all.  Sadly, I only put the effort in from the neck down haha.  No shower, no make up, lazy mom top knot.  I did however, brush my teeth 🙂

This is the same park we went to the other the day for Maya’s 3 year pictures.  I love that it’s not really a park.  It’s in the middle of this little neighborhood, but nobody has ever been there when we’ve gone.  Perfect for running around, and nerdy self portraits 😉This was actually sold as a dress.  I may have washed it (dry clean only, WHATEVER!!), and shrunk it a little… Like I would ever have worn it as a dress anyway… If Maya had control over what she wore, she would wear this dress and one other one every.single.day.  Now, she knows to ask “Is the purple dress dirty?”  Because I say that all the time in order to get her into something else haha.She could jump into my arms over and over.  “AGAIN!!!”  Which is good, because it took me a while to time these right.  I really wanted one of her mid air, but we’ll try again another day 🙂Love this next one.  I’m so glad she’s such a snuggler!!On me…
