I Want to Keep Everything, Dripping Bacon & Getting Use to the Mess

Do I have to return these Le Tote items????? I love everything they sent me. I'll send my tote back tomorrow and wait in anticipation for my next one. I kind of want to add dresses to "my le tote closet" --- which is basically a wish list, but I'm not sure the length on the dresses. They'd have to be work appropriate, ya know? This girl is not going to the club.

I have fallen behind on my week in photos blog post, so let me just throw them at you, right now. Let's start with the good stuff. Bacon? No, dripping Bacon.
Typical Monday meal prepping stuff...

throw in some choclate and this is what I call a balanced meal

My grocery store started carrying this! I'm super excited to make kale chips and I don't have to wash or chop anything. Easy-peasy.

Giving her fruit popsicles are such a mess (this pic, she looks clean, but fast forward 5 minutes later and mess!), but she loves them - so I just need to get use to the fact that things will be messy for a while, until she gets older and learns how to feed herself.
Crammed in the back of the focus with 2 pretty girls

Play-time at the mall with mrs. amanda! Today, she took the kids to see Turbo and next week they are going to the aquarium. I'd say Mrs. Amanda is pretty cool.

I Took a Selfie & Then I Grabbed a Baby #Le_Tote

I got my first Le Tote package today!!!!! and after seeing what they sent me, I have to say -- I'm pleased with their picks! They sent me 3 blouses and 2 accessories (necklace and a bracelet).

I took one selfie, but it felt more natural to hold a baby, so I grabbed one.

I really like this back! But seriously it took me like 10 minutes trying to figure out how to wear it. Does the opening go in the front or the back???? Eventually, I figured it out. Haha! If I absoultey fall in love with some of the merch, I have the option to buy.

Every package is a surprise. When I send this package back, hopefully by Thursday, my next package will also be a surprise. Next time, it could be a skirt, a blouse, and a dress with 2 accessories - Who knows.

I'm Giving Le Tote a Try & Some Oldies

Have you heard of Le Tote?

I'm trying to think of the best way to describe it...It's like Netflix, but for clothes. You get 3 garments and 2 accessories. You can keep them as long as you want or return them as soon as you want and as soon as Le Tote receives your package, they send you your next Tote. You can repeat that as much as you want...I'm anxiously waiting for my first tote package!!!! The main thing I'm worried about is size. It seems like every designer has a different fit. I'm really curious to see if I will like it and if it's worth the monthly subscription. I'm going to give it a 30 day trial.
Here is the site if you are interested. 

I think they deliver dresses, often. In that case, I might have to get over my rule about not wearing dresses to work.

Here are some throwbacks. I came across this picture, while searching through my running images.

We were at the ft. worth zoo run and Cheyenne hated that panda. 

Oh, and this makes me miss my ELEMENT. It also makes me miss running in compression socks. It's too hot for that, these days.

Christmas Consumer Post. Three Things.

ONE:
For the past few days, Trey has been asking for my Christmas Wish List. This year, I did something different. I utilized Pinterest.

This is from my Gotta Have Board. Oh, wow -- I'm so obsessed with running. By looking at this you can see I love running and apparently, Panda Express. That's a pregnancy craving of mine. Actually, that was mainly during the first trimester. These days, I crave Taco Bueno. Yesterday, I gave in and got a muchacho. So, good.


TWO:
My treadmill is still broken. Trey says he'll call the company to see what they say and see if we need to buy a replacement part. I hope it's nothing too expensive. So, for the first time in years, I'm considering a gym membership. Trey and I could combine our membership and get a family discount. It's actually quite affordable in comparison to most gyms in DFW. OH, and it's nice.

EDITED: Treadmill Update: It will cost $200 for a replacement part. That's what I want for Christmas! Agh! Trey said he's not buying me that for Christmas. I don't know if that's a good thing or a bad thing. Probably a good thing. Christmas gifts in December and Treadmill in ???? January???? I can only hope. If I get my treadmill fixed, I'm not getting a gym membership. Hold me to that.

THREE:
Some of you may already know about this online store, but I just discovered it, like a month ago and it's now my favorite. It's UrbanOG. They have super cute, super affordable boots. They also have a fashion channel on YouTube. I bought these riding boots. Cheyenne likes to call them, hunting boots. I found a coupon code online and only paid 32 dollars. That's it. Now, I need grey or brown leggings. I don't own any brown clothes. Brown clothes and shoes usually scare me, fashion wise -- IDK why. Maybe because black is so easy to mix and match. I've never really invested in a neutral/brown wardrobe. I guess, I better start because I'm not a fan of the whole black with brown look and I've got new boots.
