Who’s ready for some randomness?! If you raised your hand, then you’ve come to the right place!
Once again, I’m linking up with some of my favorite blogger gals for a little Five on Friday fun!
So let’s get started, shall we?
ONE.
Non-toxic and perfect for my limber little lady who can still stick her toes in her mouth. My mom found this polish at Ulta and I assumed Arden would be 2 before she would actually let me put it on her. Then a couple of days ago I got an idea that involved a highchair and a Baby Einstein video. Magic, I tell you! The girl was frozen as soon as Baby McDonald popped on the screen, and I was done painting those little piggies in no time!
Now let’s be honest…is there anything cuter than chubby, painted baby toes?!?!
TWO.
Hand-me-downs
I am slightly obsessed with dressing Arden in my nieces’ old clothes. It just makes me so nostalgic and happy to see her in some of my favorite Maren/Norah outfits. Even better is seeing a side-by-side comparison of then and now!
Maren ’07 & Arden ’13
Please note: Maren is playing with a kitchen utensil and Arden, an iPod. My how times have changed!
THREE.
I can’t believe I just admitted that. But I guess it could be worse–I could’ve said I watched The Client List or Breaking Amish. Oh wait…
Anyway, can someone please tell me why I find these people so fascinating?!?!
And did you hear Kim and Kroy are expecting again? My head is telling me to be annoyed by this, but my heart is so excited for them. I know, I have issues…reality TV issues.
FOUR.
Peek-A-Boo aka “Where’s Arden?”
The slow peek kills me…
FIVE.
Family
I’m at the lake with all of these people right now. Life is good 🙂
Have a great weekend y’all!
It’s cool…I’ve lived in Texas for almost 3 years now. I think I’ve earned it, right?! 😉
Jessica says
Great post! I've got a new show for you! If you are like me and enjoy some Real Housewives Drama…you have to watch Pretty Wicked Moms on Lifetime, Tuesdays at 9 or 10. So hilarious and full of rich wife drama. Have a great weekend at the lake! Love the peek-a-boo Arden!
Vanessa says
Jess–I'm so ridiculous. I already watched it. I'm telling you…I have a problem!!!

Vanessa says
