The View of a 30-Something Mom of two

confessions, finally friday · July 29, 2016

Finally Friday


It’s finally Friday! I’ve had a fantastic week filled with tons of fun. Let’s start the confessions because I have quite a few to make. 

I confess I am more then excited to leave this afternoon for a girls weekend. My hubs and Bennett get to have a special guys weekend–while I’m sipping a lemonade on the beach under a cabana. I’ll take it. I chose a good book–and charged up my Kindle. Bring it on Bachelorette Party!

I confess I am in love with a lip gloss from Mac that is not sold in stores and only in those special packs. It’s very disappointing. I need this in my life again. Does anyone know where you find lipgloss that may be a similar color? 

 
I confess I went shopping crazy on Gap the other day. It was 50% off of sale items–were talking I spent no more then $8 on one item (I bought way more than these 2 items). If you know me I love me some Gap, and this sale couldn’t be passed!

I confess I also attacked a Pottery Barn sale–except I had to go to the actual store as the shipping was almost as much as I was getting off on the product. Crazy talk. But when I went to the store, I experienced something I have never experienced before…
I confess I inhaled cotton candy. Literally, it didn’t last long. I’m a strong lover of cotton candy and the last time we went to see the Disney on Ice show the line was so long I passed on it. I was so upset the rest of the night weekend. It’s an intense love, except this time I’m thinking my brewing baby is the one that is making me hungry for this. True Story.  

What are your plans for the weekend?

The sweetest mornings are spent with these three. The sweetest mornings are spent with these three.

He’s a sweet kid, who loves to be silly. He likes his alone time to play, but also loves when his brother plays with him. He surprises me daily with all the things he knows, and I’m so blessed we’re going on our third year of learning together. He loves his baby sister something big, and she puts up with his shenanigans. We all love to watch him play and grow in baseball, and watching his skills develop over the years has been fun! Happy birthday sweet Bennett! 🎂

I kept thinking about party favors, and after chatting with some friends about ideas—decided on this! I loved that I wouldn’t be handing out candy or other items that may end up just thrown away. Also, ice cream was always served with cake as a kid so what better way to get your ice cream later 😉

Also, any other moms out there that their kid missed their siblings more than you? 🤦🏼‍♀️ oh well, he enjoyed it and his teacher is literally the sweetest thing! How is your first week going? Any case of the kids say the craziest thing? I love the first day of school, and it’s such a special moment to watch and see how each child takes the day and runs with it. 💙

We love making these apple donuts—they are fun for the kids to decorate—add frosting, peanut butter, sprinkles, the list goes on!
