It's time for another edition of Five on Friday and I do hope you'll join along!
Remember, all you have to do is post about five things on your mind, add our logo (found at the bottom of this post), and join the party using the linky tools below. Easy, and a great way to find new blogs and be found. :)

What a week it's been -- because of Char's eye surgery, I feel like it just FLEW by ... our whole week was sort of centered around getting care for Camille (thank you to my awesome parents who let her keep going at racecar speed down at their lakehouse while we laid low with recuperating Char) and of course prepping for (and then experiencing) the actual procedure. So to think that today's Friday, whewwww. I am so happy.

You may have seen photos and videos on Instagram, but we have a new amazing swing in our backyard! Ian bought it from Amazon and we read so many reviews until we were just over it (yet convinced we'd found THE one). The girls absolutely love it, and the first night after it was hung, Ian and I got on it after the girls were asleep!
We did need about 65" of additional rope to hang it from really high up in one of our trees, and we had our tree beautification guru to be the one to hang it for us. It's awesome and will definitely serve us well!

(I always get asked about our swingset. It's from Costco!)

Two girls, totally different hair between my Camille and my Charlotte. Camille's hair is stick-straight and silky. Charlotte's is coming in wispier, fluffy like cotton candy, with some curls in the back! Well, 98% of the time she is walking around with a bedhead-looking mess of hair happening in the back. Like, it constantly looks like she just woke up from a night of fitful sleep. I read some reviews on various detanglers today and plan to pick up THIS one today, unless anyone has any different recommendations?
So many amazing styles on 40% off friends and fam sale at Loft, including so many pieces in that Camellia print that I'm obsessed with! I can't resist a gorgeous floral!
PLUS so many of the other amazing items like this swimwear!

Aaaah I have so many exciting things coming up! First of all, my amazing girlfriend (who just HAPPENS to now have "children's book author" listed to her long list of talents ... her book hit bookstores and Amazon this past week -- more on this later!) is hosting a beautiful baby sprinkle for me on Sunday!
Additionally, I am Oklahoma-bound on Thursday for some awesome times with my LipSense crew ... we are going to be descending on Tulsa and having so.much.fun! It's my last hurrah before baby boy makes his debut and I'm so excited for some girlfriend time!
I'll be wearing one of these dresses for the big awards ceremony Friday night and I'm so excited about it!
And in LipSense news, today is my ONE YEAR anniversary of being a distributor! It has changed my life in so many amazing and unexpected ways ... most of all, a way to make some of the most amazing girlfriends. I feel so blessed by this opportunity and truly thankful to each of you who have followed along with this journey!

That's it for today! Hope you have a lovely weekend -- thanks for linking up with us below!
We use that same detangler from the Honest Company and we LOVE it! My daughter has super long and thick hair (and she's only two!) and it's the only thing that helps us comb through it! I even use it on my hair when it's being a pain in the butt, haha!
ReplyDeletePs.. you look so gorgeous in all of those dresses!
Sweet Charlotte! So glad she's on the mend after her surgery. Love all of those dresses on you and so glad you're getting to do some fun, special things for YOU! Can't wait to order Sarah's book. And, I need that swim cover-up.
ReplyDeleteBest of luck to you and brave little Charlotte this week! Thanks again for the link up. All of the dresses are lovely! Joanne x
ReplyDeleteYour girls are just the sweetest. Prayers for sweet little Charlotte.
ReplyDeleteI have that same yellow Camellia print blouse from Loft. It's definitely my spring favorite. I think I'm going to need the white tank version too.
Have a great weekend!
I am so glad her surgery is over! I can’t wait to see which dress you choose... all are gorgeous on you!
ReplyDeleteShe is so cute! I hope everything went well with the surgery. That swing looks like so much fun! Sierra~Beautifully Candid
ReplyDeleteAw hope Charlotte is doing well! You look fabulous in all three dresses! Can't wait to see which one you chose!

Wow, all of those dresses are stunning! Are you still using Monat hair products? Your hair looks especially "Texas-pageant-fabulous" in those mirror selfies. Love it!
ReplyDeleteOk, I need to know where you were shopping for those gorgeous maternity dresses!! I have my brother's wedding in May and need a maternity dress and can't seem to find any that are gorgeous, but those you are trying on...they are stunning!!!
ReplyDeleteSo glad precious Char's surgery is behind her. I hope this weekend is full of healing and relaxation for ALL of you! I also hope you have an awesome and fun sprinkle! Finally, I can't wait to finally meet you in person in Tulsa, OK (of all places). You just exude positive energy and I am pumped to meet you! <3
ReplyDeleteI have tried SO many detanglers for M, but keep going back to this one. It's a great price, can be found at Target, and I love the smell http://www.suave.com/product/detail/1080119/purely-fun-detangler-spray. We use almost daily after we spray her curls with water.
ReplyDeleteThis is our favorite too!
DeleteThat swing looks like so much fun! If we had a nice big tree in our yard I'd be all over that (literally). That sequin dress has my vote but they're all gorgeous on you! Happy weekend.
