Happy Insta-Friday. Who else has fallen in love with the new Instagram Filters?

Oh. Sweet. Heavens. {nuff said}

When Mommy loves sparkles, it's only right, my little girl loves sparkles. :)

ROCKSTAR MOM

More sparkles. I love my TOMS!

She still needs to be told she's NOT a tween just yet. She's still my BABY!

BEST. BOOK. EVER.

Can you see why I loved the Chicago rain all week? ;)

When hubby watches football.....this mama PINS!

{Calling All Mommies}

In just a few months, I am going to be a new Aunt to my sister's first born Madelyn Elizabeth. I am OVER THE MOON ecstatic. I haven't purchased much for any infant little girl, probably since my daughter. My family is lacking in the baby girl department. I always love to share amazing things and I have to say, I fell in love with these birth announcements from Riley Jolie Photography and are a must have to welcome my new niece. My absolute favorite part about these announcement are the bunting flags on them. Anyone who knows me, knows that I simply adore that whole look.

This collection is ideal for baby girls AND boys. Be sure to go check them out and visit her FB page, too and tell her If The Bow Fits sent you. She often has special deals you won't want to miss out on. You also don't need to have your photos done by Riley Jolie to get these announcements.

Are You A Hot Mom?

{this is a previous blog post from November 2010.}

Kendra Wilkinson was on the Today Show this week and spoke of her pregnancy, weight gain, husband Hank and the talk of Howard Stern criticizing her for all the weight gain during her pregnancy with her first born son.

She stated she is just now getting her body back in shape after 12 months and wants to be a "Hot mom in the public eye." Do you moms strive to be a hot mom? Maybe not only for your spouse or significant other, but do you do it for yourself?

And what technically makes you a "hot mom?" I know personally, I barely have the energy to change out out my pajamas some days (ok, most days) let alone workout.

Is it a celebrity thing or do most mommies want to be considered a MILF?

{Splish Splash, We're Re-doing Our Bath}

We just moved and I am SO excited to start all our new projects around the house. I take any chance at getting out of the house, now that I am on my way to becoming human again. I have been a complete zombie with this surgery. The first place we started with was the bathrooms. And boy, do I <3 the accessories we got. My husband & I were out doing some shopping and stopped at one of my absolute favorite stores. Can you guess where??? You're right....HOBBY LOBBY; and we found some super cute accessories for our 3 bathrooms.

Check them out...

Aren't these stinkin' cute?

This is a pic we brought over from our other house. It's one of my favs. :)

Who else gets excited about CUTE things like this? I mean, this is one trendy and super adorable toilet paper roll. ;)

His/Her hooks we got at Hobby Lobby, too! We are going to use these in our master bedroom closets. Luckily, we have his/her closets. I think I may need about 5 more with all my stuff.

What is your favorite part of the house to decorate? Where do you get all your cute home goods? I love a good bargain. ;)
