Shopping Results

I bought a few new things yesterday... Like: This little dress from Forever 21, necklace and earrings from Forever 21, and a cardigan from Antropologie.
 Oh, and these fun glasses.

Things Done Today:

Today I...

Went to church.  I wasn't brave enough to leave Trae in the nursery, but his time is coming.  He just wont sit still during church anymore.  The child likes to move.  Therefore, church for me was spent standing in the back swaying back and forth with Trae who just wanted to move and stare at the Exit sign.

Had lunch with our house church.  Appropriately, the sermon today was about community, so it was fantastic to spend some quality time with some great people.

Went shopping... By myself.  This hardly ever happens, but I have to say, it was really nice.  I spent a good hour in Forever 21 and picked out about a million accessories, as usual.  However, in the end, I put back everything but a necklace, a pair or earrings, two pairs of glasses... and okay, two shirts.  THEN, I went to Victoria's Secret and Antropologie... and I got to buy things at both!  Thank you, gift cards!  I will post pictures of my finds tomorrow.

Ate at Taco Bueno... also by myself.  They have some great new healthier menu choices that I am enjoying... Like the BC Tostella.  They may have had these things on the menu for a long time, but I am far behind in the fast food world.

And because I promised, here is a picture of Trae from this afternoon.  While I think my glasses are awesome, he obviously does not.

The Result of Sephora Free Shipping

A few weeks ago, my friend Kimber informed me that Sephora was having a free shipping day.  This was perfect because first, I love make up far too much.  Second, I had a gift card I had been itching to spend, but because I had been staying home with Trae so much, I just hadn't made it to the actual store.  Here's what  bought:
Urban Decay's Ink for Eyes
My first time to use this stuff was this morning, and I am already loving it.  I usually use Urban Decay's Liquid Liner.  I like liquid liner, but I have issues with it looking a little too intense for some occasions.  This stuff is perfect because it is still bold and black, but it can look a lot softer.  Make sense?

Tarte Lip Stain
I'm also loving this lip stain.  I love Tarte cosmetics in general.  I have used their cheek stain for years.  This stuff is great.  I put it on this morning, and I can still see some color.  Also, unlike every other lip stain I have, this one actually makes your lips feel moisturized.  

So, I have seen a few "What's In My Makeup Bag?" posts, and I thought they were fun, so here is the rest of what I use on a daily basis...
6.  Eyeshadow - I have lots to choose from :)
8.  Mascara - Also, I'm a little obsessed with mascaras, and I buy all kinds of brands.  One of my favorites is Maybelline's Falsies Mascara.

It sounds like a lot, but I promise I can put it all on in about five minutes.  Yes, I love makeup.  And, because I also love my little boy, please laugh at this picture with me.  My friend, Laura, took this when she can to visit me last month.  She caught Trae at the perfect moment to give us all a good laugh.
Lookin' crazy.

Online Shopping Saturday

Hello to all my new followers! I am so, so glad to have you. Ultimate Blog Party has been a great way to meet other bloggers. What a great idea! If you don't know about it, and you want to meet other bloggers, click on the link below.

Well, it's Saturday, which means two totally different things. One, I should be doing something exciting (which I am not). Two, my dear husband will be home soon.

What I really wanted to do today was go shopping, but Trae is sleeping right now, and I hate waking him up and messing up the schedule I have worked on so hard. Maybe when he wakes up, we will head out to a few places. Until then, I am looking at a few things that I would like. So, here's to online shopping!

Last week, my husband introduced me to this site. The main thing I have been lusting over is their fun shoe collection. Specifically, these little gems:

I love animal print, and I love the color red, so I REALLY want these.

Also, I have been wanting some makeup from Kat Von D's line. I have heard a lot of good things about her eye shadows, but I wouldn't mind having this too:

It's a perfume ring! What a fun idea.

And finally, back to the 30 Day Photo Challenge, because I have been a slacker lately.

Day 17 - A picture of something that has made a huge impact on your life recently.
Okay, you guys, I know it seems like my Trae is my whole life right now, but really, he is! Is there anything more life impacting/changing than having a baby? I really don't think there has been anything in my life. It's like this: one day it was just me and Art, and then, in just one moment, there were three of us. I can't even begin to describe how much having a baby has changed me. I am a little selfish. I freely admit that. Haha. But now, life is about thinking about Trae first. The thing is, it doesnt even bother me. I am constantly thinking about how things will affect him. Will he be safe? What can I do to make him happy? Is he taken care of? He has changed my life completely, and I wouldn't have it any other way. He is just so great.
