Wool Hat + White Button Down + Crop Flares + Booties (I can smell fall!)

 We are in that time of year where one week it’s in the 90’s (say WHAT?  Shoot me…), but then…we’ll have a cooler morning here and there, and this week RAIN!  It’s one of the many things I love about Seattle.  We have definite weather changes, and with that comes variety in our wardrobe choices-yay!!  I’m getting excited to wear booties again, so I broke them out for a test run the other day with my favorite cut of jeans-crop flares!  Oh, and a wool hat, because I hadn’t washed my hair in…well, a few days. 😉blog-nordstrom-wool-hat-alara-white-button-down-j-brand-gigi-crop-flare-sam-edelman-petty-booties-1 blog-nordstrom-wool-hat-alara-white-button-down-j-brand-gigi-crop-flare-sam-edelman-petty-booties-2 blog-nordstrom-wool-hat-alara-white-button-down-j-brand-gigi-crop-flare-sam-edelman-petty-booties-3 Oh, and her little hand gripping my hair…DYING!

“But MOM…I’m WORKING on my COMPUTER!

….I guess, I could just bring it out there too…”

Keeping it Real…
OMG, haha!  I showed this video I took on our Instagram Story.  She often grabs the remote shutter and starts taking pictures.  She thought it was hilarious to take pictures between my legs….between HER legs! 😉  And…the camera caught me getting a picture of US, that she took. haha.
blog-outtake-1 blog-outtake-2 Oh, and I had another post all together taken in this direction of the side walk, but CLEARLY I f’d up the focus.  It was 8:30 in the morning, so I blame it on my coffee not having kicked in yet!
All in all, a blessing in disguise, because I love the light in the other direction more 🙂

Happy 4th of July!

 Cannot wait for the 4th of July parade later today.  I think this will be the first year that Maya really gets excited about it.  She was still a little oblivious about it last year.

Pretty sure she still won’t be excited about the fireworks though…Blog Joie Genetic Denim Rafe Espadrilles-1 Blog Joie Genetic Denim Rafe Espadrilles-2 Blog Joie Genetic Denim Rafe Espadrilles-3 Blog Joie Genetic Denim Rafe Espadrilles-4 Blog Joie Genetic Denim Rafe Espadrilles-5

Keeping it Real…
The only “keeping it real” I have is that I am so busy with work that I don’t have much time for personal pictures.  These were taken in about 15 minutes, and I was lucky to do that!  Again, big thank you to my parents for watching the Peanut so much while I’m away!!  Oh, and AMEN for children’s Zyrtek.  FINALLY found something that worked on Maya’s hives that she’s been having for the past 6 days.  Still hoping we don’t have to keep taking it for the long term…
