Spring Shoes

May 2, 2011 jennifer Happy Finds, Musings on Life and Beauty

I must say that one of my favorite things about little girls are their shoes. I am totally inspired by these adorable spring shoes. Not sure what could possibly come from it, but I’m inspired nonetheless.

I don’t buy them often, but when your daughter’s big toes have worn holes through her flats and you can see the toes sticking out, you go shopping for shoes. Even if they’re her favorite pair and she’s not ready to part with them. And when your baby can’t fit her feet in her shoes, you take her along too. And the eight year old? Hers have disappeared. So we all went shopping.

It’s fun to see how the shoes fit each personality and style.

I love the colors, the sequins, the smart little bows on each. My baby agrees.

The only thing better than cute little shoes is watching chubby little hands try to put them on without help.

And seeing the random poses that seem to follow whenever my camera is in hand:

Have you got something in your life that’s just so cute you can’t stand it? This morning I’m all about their shoes.

Spring Break Recap

April 30, 2011 jennifer Musings on Life and Beauty

I described much of our spring break here , but failed to share pictures. For the record, a brief photo recap of our happy week without a crazy schedule! (Only more weeks of school to go, but who’s counting? Me, that’s who!)

Spring Flowers Undone

April 16, 2011 jennifer Musings on Life and Beauty

Having been caught with the peanut butter again, it was put away and my little one went for the flowers instead.

She was quite happy to pause her experiment to show me what she’d accomplished.

We salvaged the flowers she hadn’t yet dismantled and let her play with what was left.

How can I be upset with her when she’s obviously having such a grand time?

Still, I’ve got to find a way to get her interested in items that are NOT on top of tables and counters.

Here’s my question for all of you who are either done having babies or who have breaks larger than 2 years: At what point do things settle down enough that you start feeling productive again? I thought it would be sometime soon, but I’m starting to wonder. Keeping up with this little explorer of mine is a full time job in itself!

Thank goodness she’s cute.
