What I'm wearing today

-
Here is today's outfit. To top is from Bliss in Tisdale, shoes Le Chateau (I get so many compliments on them), necklace Ricki's (it is green - hard to tell the color in this picture).

Deena has joined a style challenge and has inspired me to do the same. It costs $10 and you receive a list of 18 items and 21 outfits to make with those items. Apparently, there should be lots of things in our closet already on the list of 18 items, so hopefully only a handful of purchases to nab to complete the list. I was completely intrigued and even if I don't style each outfit the same as the stylist, I am hoping to be inspired. You can check it out HERE. It is from the blog Get Your Pretty On. Let me know if you join! I am excited :-)

Calder likes my heels almost as much as I do. This is a picture of him this morning. He actually pulls my heels out every couple of days and tromps around the house. I like heels because they make me tall and feel pretty. Calder likes them because them make him tall and are REALLY loud!

    I want those shoes. I'm also pumped for some new ideas in this challenge.

    I LOVE the shoes. When I went back to work after Cooper I became a shoe person and often make them the focus of my outift. If you havnen't already, get a pair of leopard print shoes, flat or heels, you'll get lots of use of them to!

Calder missed nailing our baby's arrival by 4 hours. Boone James Hamilton was born at 3:59 this morning. Boone is doing well. We got back some positive test results today and will hopefully get the remaining few tomorrow. He gets to spend the night with us and at this point that is all we can ask!

Another embarassing one

On Tuesday, I had this brilliant post formulated in my head. Then just before supper the power went out. Although the internet went down with the power, I still could have just written it on the computer to publish in the morning. Instead, I took full advantage of a sick child (who slept on the couch most of the evening) and a husband who was in the city (at his Grade 8's Farewell). I read. And also did some texting. But mostly I read (There was a moment that I thought I should conserve the power on my cell phone in case it the power took its sweet time coming on, but it was short lived. I figured that I could always go charge it in the van. Hugh was glad that it didn't get to that. He pictured me not getting the garage door open (I would have had to have manually open since there wasn't any power). Then he pictured me sitting in the van dying of carbon monoxide poisoning. I wish he would have given me a little more credit when this elaborate daydream was running t...

Guest Post Luke: Men at Ikea

     I've recently been blessed with 2 trips to Ikea in the last 3 months, and with a lot of time on my hands while in Ikea I came to notice a few similarities in all the men walking around there.   As I was taking notes on every man I saw, and mostly myself , I came up with different types of guys and what their role was with their significant other.          The first guy, who I believe to be the most common, is "The Turn Back Man".  This man believes that, just like in racing, if he stays in front of his significant other he can use drafting to increase her speed and keep her on track.  This never works and he subsequently becomes the "Turn Back Man".  He is constantly 4 steps ahead and turning back over and over when SHE sees something else they "might" need.  It is tough, because when entering Ikea men want to do as little walking as possible, but this has us taking even more steps. It is the slight chance that ...
