To Grammy's House We Go!

Finley and I got to come on a little mini trip this week to visit our Grammy & Poppa! She's awfully good in the car for long periods of time for such a little stinker!! After a long drive filled with lots of singing, two stops at McDonalds,a biscuit, 3 potty stops, and a nap we made it. Finley has enjoyed time with her Grammy, who made her muffins and waffles-her two favorite things to eat!



Here's FooFoo riding Elijah's cool car/bike!

Sweet Little Miss Mila Time!

I got to go visit little Miss Mila today!! I just love getting to see her and her mommy & daddy & Aunt Danielle (my best friend, so I'm like an unofficial aunt right???) Every one was SO HAPPY when this little cutie pie got here safe & sound & beautiful as can be. Mila has the cutest little facial expressions & makes the sweetest little kissy faces! Oh and I got to snuggle her while she ate. I just love babies! Sweet girls like Mila make babies irresistible!

Snakes & Snails and Puppy-dog tails!

I'm sure you've noticed this by now but just in case you haven't...
I'M GETTING A NEPHEW!
As in a rough and tumble-dirt-everywhere-scraped-up-knees-baseball-playing-teach-him how-to-spit-nephew.
Blog world, meet Easton Kayle Richardson
ETA: NOVEMBER 2012
I couldn't be any more excited. Seriously. 
And of course, I am absolutely loving getting to browse through the boy section now when I go shopping. I can't help myself. Little polo shirts, sneakers, hats, tiny little man vests. Its all to precious to handle. Rhinos and tigers and racoons! Oh my! Little skateboards and pirates and skulls and rockstars. It's so much fun!

{Quick Camera Clicks}

Okay, so these are obviously little tidbits from my iPhone camera, mostly pics shared on my Instagram. These 4 are my favorites from the past 2 weeks!
1. My mermaid theme nails. LOVE!

2. NEW IPHONE CASE!!!!
This SPECK case is just adorable and it was on sale at Target so I really couldn't pass it up.
Get one for yourself here:

3. Finley was being so cute at the talent show Friday. She had a mini self-portrait shoot sitting in my lap.

4. TA-DA!! THIS, ladies and gents, it a beautiful picture of the most precious little boy ever. 
MY NEPHEW!!
Look at that precious nose and his wittle chin and lips and perfectly round baby tummy. Good God, he is the perfect little boy already! 

Run, Skip, Hop

Played outside with the little princess today. She's a hoot.
Her little bun on top of her head was just too precious and she was thrilled that we both had our hair up. (Also, that giant pink blob is a pink hippo shaped tent. Adorable!)

How do I organize?

Okay, so every week when I sit down to work on my homework I tell myself 'Today I will organize my school work and binders'. And every week I don't. Surprised? No.
What I want to know is how can I organize my junk to make homework/studying/keeping up with notes easier? I'm definitely not the kind of person who can do this easily, unfortunately. Actually, I'm the most unorganized person ever. I like to throw my shit in my binder or stuff it in my bag and hope that I can't find them when I need them next. OBVIOUSLY THIS IS NOT THE BEST SYSTEM TO WORK WITH.
I just need to really put some effort ing to diving my papers up, labeling junk, and putting the work in its place do I can easily find it to study. That'd be nice.
Suggestions??
