For whatever reason Braden loves to get into my closet and wear my heels. Always one pink and one tan. Why? Because that's how he rolls! He seems to love his own fashion sense so much he wanted it documented via pictures! Here ya go little guy!

And His Name is Austin
Felisha has a......a......a boyfriend! I don't know if I'm supposed to be happy or sad or just cry. She's really liking her new school and now I think we can all guess why! Hmmmmm, I wonder!
So this whole new found 'boyfriend' thing, what is that again, has left me wondering what I do as 'the girlfriends mom'. Is that my new official title or do they just call me 'Felisha's mom'? Or 'hey yo, lady'? Cause I know the poor kid isn't calling me 'mom'!! Although I am pondering the idea of having him call me 'your royal majesty all mighty one queen of all' as he is to bow down before me! Like that will happen!
Seriously, I mean what are my new duties is what I'm trying to figure out? Do I chaperone them to the movies and sit between them and buy them each their own individual pop corns? Do I take them out for dinner and ice cream and make sure they don't play footsie? Do I take them swimming in parkas? Do I take them out shopping with dog collars so they don't try to stray from me? Do I invite him over and give him the 1 gazillion questions and analyze each of his answers? Or do I just sit back and see where it goes, I mean they're only 10..............going on 22! Either way...scary!!

Baseball Dreams
Not my boy! He has a good mommy that ran to Target and spent a whopping $2.50 on a plastic baseball bat/ball set. I even managed to find a baseball shirt at JCPenneys cause I was so embracing the desire of my little one.
Yeah he's pretty special!
Totally expecting to see a pic of him with his bat huh? Ya, sorry! Expect the unexpected! LOL

For the Love of Books
I've come to find out my new location really is 'a good thing' as Martha would say. I'm minutes from shopping and restaurants and totally took advantage of this today. It may appear as though I have neglected my blog/s lately but I have a lot of issues I'm trying to work through lately and haven't really been feeling like myself. I do however enjoy blogging as its a way to express myself and journal and document things because I've decided I'm totally not cut out to be a scrapbooking diva so this will have to suffice. Sorry kiddos!
After being a good mother and enrolling my daughter back in school for the last 10 days here we had us a girls nite. We went for dinner and strolled around our new shopping center. After blowing a wad at Barnes and Noble we hit up Cold Stone for some I scream, u scream, we all scream for ICE CREAM! Its good to know that everyone followed our lead and packed the place on a Wed. night and that girls will still sacrifice comfort to sport their ever brightly hued stiletto's in order to impress us with their almost nonexistent walking abilities in them! I do hope those poor girls enjoyed their ice cream cause I know their feet were killing them!
I think I've mentioned before how me and Felisha can easily find peace amongst a book store. I don't know if its the smell of fresh new books, big comfy seats, the leisurely atmosphere or the smell of Starbucks but we do love our Barnes and Noble trips. Or any other bookstore really, we're not partial! We both enjoy reading and bringing home new books to curl up with. Today's trip was more along the lines of 'classics'. Children's classics to be exact and I don't know how we managed that but we were both pleased with our selections. The Giving Tree (in hardback 40 year edition ooh la la) has always touched my heart. Every time I see it in plain view I have to pick it up and sit my big ole booty on the little seats and read it. Always makes me think about life. Falling Up is a book I haven't read in ages but Felisha was very excited to snatch this one up. She loves it. The Missing Piece, I really don't remember this book at all but love it so now. Ya, I guess we kinda had a thing for Shel Silverstein tonight! I may as well have bought all of his books tonight but I didn't. We'll save that for another day! Made You Look, cause who doesn't love those Where's Waldo kinda books?!! And last but not least our beloved Harold and the Purple Crayon. I think Braden will love the Harold books. Reminds me of my little monkey boy! I already like to think he loves his Curious George books cause they are so much alike! And if Braden decides to whip a purple crayon out everywhere.......I'll know who got him started!

Randomness
I'm done moving, however trying to unpack my stuff is a bit of a challenge as one really must get creative when living in smaller quarters with so much stuff. Well, that or unload some junk! I haven't quite decided on that one yet, hence all the boxes everywhere.
I really don't know where I'm going with this post because my mind is wondering and well I have nothing super exciting to blog about. The 'Chic Pad' as me and Felisha like to call it is coming along slowly. It'll be super cute in time. Felisha's room is probably the cutest at the moment with her new bedroom suite and all. We are doing white furniture with black accessories and then her bedding we are thinking we'll do black and white with lime green accents. I think we can pull it off. I'm almost certain she will be sneaking her vampire boyfriend into the decor somehow. Just a hunch I have.
Since I heart Target and visit them frequently I'm totally loving the fact that they are just across the freeway from me and theres a Starbucks in there so its just grand really! In there ever changing Dollar Spot we found an autograph frame for a buck of course and I had Felisha take it to her old school and have her classmates sign it before her last day there. When she brought it home I found it to be so stinkin' cute cause they all left little messages and their phone numbers! All I can say is thank goodness for unlimited texting!!
