I went to college in the 90’s when grunge was at it’s height of fashion. I loved thrift stores almost more back then, than I do now. Mostly out of necessity, but also for the thrill of the hunt like today. One of the things I used to love to find and wear were army pants. Like…actual US Military Army pants. They were always so perfectly worn in and soft, and I loved the extra large pockets. Made me feel dainty, which when you’re 5’8 is a total plus 🙂
Anywho! I found these “Army Pants” by Current Elliott on Twice (online resale store that has great stuff and repeatedly sends coupons!) for $21. I had a $10 coupon from a prior purchase, so I jumped on them. I wasn’t disappointed. They fit exactly like the true army pants! I like that they are a different spin on the boyfriend jean too…
While we are talking about nostalgia, how about these Dr. Scholls!?? I remember my mom wearing them in the 70’s, so when they kind of came back in the 90’s I snatched up a few pairs. Ok…I got 3 colors haha. Of course I still have them. I figure if Birks are making a comeback, these should too! 
Maya’s totally into holding my face right now. She says “Awe…nice!” Yet, sometimes it’s not so gentle :{ 
Dying over this little top from Little Boogaweezin! She’s offering 30% off all baby/kids clothing on Friday when you use the code SURPRISE. Such cute stuff for both baby and Mama!

We are on Spring Break in Whistler right now. I wasn’t sure if we would take many pics while here, and we haven’t. Truth be told, the first day, I was in no mood to take her picture. She figured out how to climb out of the pack and play, so it was co-sleeping for us. She hasn’t done that since she was 3 months old, so there was a lot of. “Hi Mommy…kiss? Hug? Daddy, what are you doing? Kiss? Hug?” When she finally went to sleep it was horizontally across the bed with her feet in the Huz’s face and arms stretched out to mine. Needless to say, NOT much sleep was had, and I was a tad cranky the first day of our trip. Oh, and even if I had, I forgot my card reader. 😦 These were taken the Friday before we left… Might be the only outfit post we do this week. Feel free to check out our
Instagram for iphone trip pics.
(all pictures taken with a self timer and tripod, except ones of Maya :))
And can we talk about these boots? I’ve LOVED/OBSESSED about them from afar for sooooo long. Someone I follow on Instagram was cleaning out her closet, and had these in my size for a quarter of the price!! I’d call that fate. haha 😉
And they are comfy too-WIN!! 
We chilled at the park while we were waiting for our friends. Am I the only mean mom that has found the only park near her without swings? Maya would stay in them the entire time, and not run around..which is totally the point of going to the park, no?? Sadly, most parks have them. It’s fun to see her so happy though…
I told Maya she had to give one of the sticks to her friend. She totally analyzed them before giving her the one she didn’t want haha. 
Seriously, she has NO FEAR! I told her she could go look at the peacock, and she totally wanted to pet it! I may have very calmly grabbed her and then ran. :}
My friend took this with my phone of us on a little break. “Mommy sit? Mommy cuddle?” Done and done 🙂
