wish list


#1 on the tip top.... as in WILL HAPPEN before needed type of thing is an
OUTDOOR FIREPLACE
DaddyC and i have longed for one for over 5 years when operation master suite architect, phase 1 ruled it.... OUT OF our budget.... And while its not TOTALLY in the budget lines... Let us not forget
"its a budget NOT a barrier" 
right daddyc???
and if anyone is the bestest ever was known to make my wishes come true its
MY one 
and only 
DAD!   
Together i feel we can make this happen.  Thanks Dad for all you ALWAYS do, you are truly the best!

via something pretty
And while i can NOT muster up the E (thats energy for you non-knowers) to scout out anymore cool outdoor fireplaces, i will let you use your imaginations.
What i AM LOVING like no other is.....

that is Fairy Tales Hair Care.... No, we don't have lice (FYI: they make a great shampoo to repel lice if you have a public school breakout or your precious one is in school period... Word on the street is Lice ARE common....
Dear Boys,
Please don't EVER bring those home.... mommy may "reallY" lose what i have left)


But we DO HAVE sun and water DAMAGED hair that feels like straw so we are proud users of Fairy Tales Sun & Surf all natural products....
Kenneth Cole REACTION Swimsuit, Halter Swimdress with Tummy Control
i really love this little swimdress as they call it.... I tore it from a magazine in the white version (because the swedish model wearing it with a big straw hat and some cute shoes made it appear that much cuter) , came home searched for it online
FYI: its the kenneth cole reaction swim dress ONLY $94
And right there was THIS swim suit
Michael Kors Swimsuit, Bandeau with Belt Detail
NOT in this color, in a slate grey, bluestone, as they call it.....This is the Michael Kors Swim dress..... So i thought, maybe is IS time to move to one piece swimwear, i will TAKE IT!   Then days later this week noticed i failed to finalize the order and i deleted it....
See Daddyc....IT DOES HAPPEN!!!!  i really don't "need" another swimsuit but if you are in the market, these are just too cute in my opinion!
And almost every single day this week....we were LATE...thats right.... Getting out the door by 8:30 a.m. is NOT possible without tears from one of the boys....And this week i wanted to throw my biggest baby to the street on more than one morning... he has developed his daddy's picky-ness of clothes.... 
"oh i can't wear that shirt mama, the collar does wrong"
"the front hangs heavy and i can't run"
(do you see why i DON't iron daddyc's shirts...but i DO feel i still have to iron my four year olds...shoot!)
"but charlie, they have your sweet monogram on them....really?" " i will cut the tag out, button one more of the buttons"
"Mama, are these shorts Sam's, they are TIGHT"
Needless to say....i will allow him to move right along with his age i suppose.....
 WHAT do 4 year old little boys coming out of little sweet clothes wear?
 i looked several places and just couldn't bring myself to some of the older boys clothing thats out there.... just not ready i guess. 
 But what i did find are
the Lands End collection of golf shirts
Chambray Blue




And let me advertise for them....
They wash and wear well, and you can have them monogram them to...I guess this is what it has come to... Golf shirts....






Dear Moms of boys, 
Is this IT? do they wear these year round now FOREVER? 
I CAN handle this. rinse and repeat. and monkey does look totally edible in his "big boy" shirts, actually better, he is border line on looking silly in the smocked ones, although, he will finish out the season in what still fits, have no worries!!!! And to "fancy" parties as he calls them and church, he will still wear sweet clothes and he is OKAY with that. 
Anyway, I still have not braved the shorts with belt loops, there is a time and place for everything, right?  But i can see the savings racking up when the boys ALL get to this point (golf shirts FOREVER) as my heart will be sad, Daddyc may be happy!!!  So if you are in this place with a little boy.... I am loving these polos, you need them. 
 Also, i will advertise for Hollywood Baby, great knit polos too, Olive Juice, Papo D' Anjo line has WONDERful big boy selection and i am now "okay" with dressing my four year....And daddyc is tickled pink about saving a little cash on clothes so that when his golf shirt's collar sticks out a wee bit, he can invest in one that DOES NOT! 

do you have picky clothes children?  
Well, that is all i have time to blab about.... but let me be the first to say
I AM PUMPED that we are DONE with our summer camps, etc. and ready to do NOTHING and a whole lot of it
Isn't that what summers are for? I hope you and yours are enjoying your summer so far.
