I'd say Happy Monday but that would just be a lie, right? :)

Did you know I've NEVER had a job that gave us President's Day off? I'm pretty sure my bosses should be making a much bigger deal out of this day than they are.

Did you know that today's not only President's Day but NATIONAL WINE DAY too? Holla! Tonight's plans is made.

Did you know today also marks 10 days until my darling-precious-child-who-refuses-to-sleep-in-her-crib turns 1? Of course you did because this crazy mom won't just drop it already!

Let's take a look at what's she's been up to, shall we?

All this in one weekend, too. The fact that her mom stayed in pj's most of the weekend and went outside not once, but twice, without a bra, can only mean that she gets her productivity from her dad.

 

Having said that, I still have a shit ton left to do for V's birthday party. I have discovered that while Pinning birthday party ideas for months ahead of time feels productive, it is in fact quite the opposite. You have to actually make the stuff. Fascinating.

 

I am happy to say though that at the very least, the party invitations been mailed out, with just 2 weeks to spare.

 

And drumroll please...Here's the fancy invitation I got to send out!

 

Isn't it the PRETTIEST?!

 

Please go tell Brittany that she's the greatest designer who ever lived and then have her do the invitations for your next party. I could not have asked for anything more perfect. Thanks again, lady - Violet is lucky to have you as her future MIL ;)

 

Now I'm off to make a to-do list of stuff that has GOT to get done this week. Sorry, job duties, you'll have to wait until some other time.

 

Oh and to those who are off work today, I'll stop talking smack. Enjoy your day. Because I just remembered that I get two weeks off this coming Christmas. So that > President's Day. Boom.

Halloweenie

I'm a total bore when it comes to Halloween. I've always loved the partying side of it (because I'm a closet alcoholic) but I've never been super into dressing up. Can't I just show up to the party and drink?!

The only notable costumes from my adult years was a cowgirl, a devil and a fairy. Cute costumes and all made by my awesome seamstress mom but of course I don't have any pictures on this computer. Awesome blog move, Jess. But I do have a picture from last year because I blogged about it. I worked hard on that preggo skeleton shirt too and of course, now you can just buy the damn thing. That's what I get for being pregnant right when Pinterest was getting going!

So, tonight's plan: go to my mom's after work (her neighborhood goes all out!), take V up and down the street so she can be a part of the Halloween crowd a little, then go back to her house and be a bore there. At least I'm taking over some candy and wine. What are your plans?!

Oh and today I'm linking up with Jenn.

 I really miss Savanah & Ashlee's Photo Fun Link up so I'm glad Jenn has started this one!

Freezing in my cropped pants // Sleeping beauty // Rocking the frizz // Getting crazy before bath time

DVR catch up // Daddy pulling her in the walker // Baby house shoes // Smirking child ignoring her mom. Already.

Speaking of Jenn, she and I wanted to do a San Antonio/Austin blogger meet-up this weekend and I think some people can still go but of course the ones who started this can't go after all. Sorry, guys :( But please let us know if you're available on a weekend in December. We have gots to do this!!

Have fun and be safe out there tonight. Don't be a Hallo-weenie bore like me! :p
