Special Birthday Giveaway, featuring Mommystimeout

Hi Ladies & Gents,

Sorry I have been MIA, but all my time has been dedicated to planning my daughters 1^st birthday party. 

I still can’t believe she is turning one this Friday. When people told me that the first year goes quick, I didn't think it would be this fast. Each milestone melts my heart  and I’m loving each minute of it.

Since most of you have followed me since day one of my motherhood journey I wanted to do a special giveaway to some of you lovely mommies. I teamed up with a cute little shop Mommystimeout. If you follow me on Instagram you have seen some beautiful pictures of Annabelle for her birthday photo-shoot that I have been posting as well on this post. Pictures honestly don’t do these crowns justice. The craftsmanship is impeccable and  you guys know how I love mommy and me items, so these crowns were perfect for us to wear for her shoot. I actually plan on displaying these in Annabelle’s playroom, when we move.

With all that said let’s get down to the official rules and make sure to stay tuned for pictures of her actual birthday party. Also check out MOMMYSTIMEOUT on Instagram.

Mommy And Me Macarons (Halloween 2014)

Hi Ladies & Gents,

I hope you all had a fabulous Halloween weekend. I had a very lovely Halloween with my mini me. As you can tell I love dressing up for Halloween. Prior to my daughter being born, I would think about my costume for a year and would have more than one costume. For me its always fun to dress up. I was 8 months pregnant last year  for Halloween, so I didn't have the energy to create a costume for myself and this year to be honest I was more excited about dressing her up. I wasn't going to dress up at all until I saw fellow blogger Songs of Styles throw back Thursday picture  on IG of her as a macaron and knew I had to do a  mommy and me version.  Of course you know I went on Pinterest and found this cute little tutorial from Studiodiy.com I literally spent a total of one hour on both mine and Annabelle's costume. Obviously Annabelle's is way cuter, but I was pretty proud of myself as it was my first attempt at making these.

Below are some pictures of our mommy and me costumes. Fyi these costumes are not for carrying a baby, hence why our pictures are separate. I paired my costume with a wig I had from a prior years costume. Overall I am happy how our costumes turned out. I hope you guys like them too. 

Stay tuned for some fun mommy and me post and fun collaborations for Annabelle's birthday month.

Peace & Love
