What I Wore Wednesday: Coral & Navy

Happy Wednesday! I finally remembered to take a picture of an outfit. I have always loved navy and now I am really liking this pretty coral color that is everywhere for Spring. I think they go well together with a touch of gray. I bought this skirt on sale last year from Land's End Canvas and wore it for the first time today. My only issue with their skirts is that sometimes I feel like they are a little on the short side, this one is okay but I recently sent back two skirts because they were just a little too short for me. I mean I chase around a two year old so I don't wanna flash anyone!

Skirt: Land's End Canvas

I really do enjoy the clothing at Land's End Canvas and I purchase a lot from there on a regular basis so I thought I would share a few of my favorite new arrivals.

I am loving the 'vintage' vibe of these two dresses.
The other colors they are offer are super cute too.

These two shirts caught my eye because they look very comfy and cool for spring.
All items can be found at Land's End Canvas.

Mommyland Life Lately.....

This is what we have to look forward to every weekend....

Though it's not technically that time of year yet, summer has arrived here in Florida. We are hovering at around 85-90 degrees on most days so that means lots of water play, including spraying Mommy with the hose and watering the flowers. Cute little, polka dot and ruffle covered swimsuits; let's face it, little girls have the most adorable swimsuits! Big bubbles, little bubbles, colored bubbles (that stained my porch!), and bubble machines. The bubble machine was the best $15 that I've ever spent at Target and I spend a lot of time there.

And last but most importantly, lots of giggles and fun!

Workin Moma: Pop of Pink

I love the pops of pink in this outfit and I am so in love with this super cute belt. I think it's perfect for Spring. Also, these shoes are awesome! It's nice to find something at our local Steinmart that doesn't look like resort wear for an 80 year old. I swear, sometimes when I walk in there I feel like I need sunglasses from all of the fluorescent capris and tops. Yikes!

Hope everyone is having a great week! Happy hump day.

Workin Moma: Spring Showers

I don't know if any of you guys live in the South but we got some crazy storms yesterday!
A friends daughter had a tree fall on her car and I saw several signs blown over this morning on my way to work. Luckily, today was beautiful and sunny again, even if the day did start out at 48 degrees. I am unconsciously on a floral kick lately with my wardrobe, this skirt is so spring-y and flowy. I wish I could find more like it. Also, I am loving these mustard colored shoes I got at Target, you can find them here. (These are still full price but the one's at my store are 1/2 off.)

Workin Moma: Floral Pop

Can you believe I am actually posting an outfit picture? I think it's been a few weeks but since we were on Spring Break last week, I didn't really wear anything 'picture' worthy. This week has been so rainy, the kids (and teachers) at school have been going stir crazy not being able to get outside and run around. That's why I chose to wear this pretty spring-y floral shirt, I felt like I needed something bright and cheerful.

Also, I hate the awkwardness of not knowing what to do with my umbrella when I get in the car. I try so hard not to get wet but then I end up slinging the umbrella across my lap into the passenger side floorboard and I end up soaked and the car does too. Am I just missing some magical solution here? Plus, don't get me started about trying to get a toddler in their carseat when it's pouring....grrr!

Moma Loves: The Learning Tower

When I saw that 'The Learning Tower' was on sale for $160 (regular $199) at Totsy.com right now, I thought I would do a quick review of this product that Syd got for Christmas.

The Learning Tower is a great tool for Toddlers to foster their independence in a safe environment. This tower has an adjustable height platform so you can move it down as they grow and you can also purchase the art easel that attaches onto the back side. It's a dry erase board on one side and a chalkboard on the other. (you can see this on Syd's tower below) I got Syd some dry erase crayons (awesome!) and she draws on it constantly. Plus when they outgrow the tower, you can still attach the art easel to the wall.

Sydney always wants to help me do everything lately so this is great to use when I'm cooking dinner. She loves standing on it to help Daddy cook eggs in the morning and she also loves for me to put it at the sink so she can 'wash' dishes and play in the bubbles. Overall, I think it was a great purchase and I see a lot of use in it in the future.

Momma's Got a Brand New Bag & How not to treat your Electronics

I FINALLY got the Jo Totes Camera Bag that I have been drooling over for about 2 years now! I haven't actually had the chance to carry it anywhere yet but I have been playing with how to arrange the Velcro inserts to fit all of my camera goodies in it. So far I've fit my Nikon D90, 50mm f/1.8 lens, 85mm f/1.8 lens, 18-105mm lens and my speedlight flash with plenty of room left for more. The design seems very functional plus the color is adorable!

Also, on a side note I deep sixed my HD Flip Video Recorder yesterday into a crock pot soaking in the sink FULL of water. (That plus all of my camera lens hoods but they dry off easy.) I was hysterically crying because it had about a years worth of videos of Sydney that I have yet to upload to my computer. We let it dry out all day and it turned on and my videos were still there! Hopefully we can get them on the computer but last night it wasn't recognizing it as a USB device. I have faith that we will figure something out but I'm just glad they are still there at all.
Lesson learned: DO NOT keep your electronics so close to the sink!
