As I lay in bed last night watching the Project Runway finale (fell asleep - no spoilers please!) I formulated a little post in my head during commercial breaks. I framed it around the lack of glamour in my life this week. It's been a little rough. Work deadlines, handsome husband away for 3 days, a cranky two year old, 5:30 a.m. wakeups after too little sleep due to said deadlines, etc., etc. But then, miracle of miracles, my son slept in till 7 a.m. today and fall's in the air and all the sudden, even though I'm in ill-fitting clothing, I feel like dancing in the streets. So, lucky for you, this will be a light-hearted post.
Here's a little taste of my week ... via a camera phone dump. (Disclaimer: I may be the world's worst camera phone photographer.)
All dressed up for the Halloween party today at school. He's going to be a robot for the actual holiday, but I don't think the costume would make it through an entire day at daycare (not that it's finished, anyway).
Finally found the perfect fabric for a roman shade in my kitchen while shopping for Halloween costume components. I came home and found it for half the price online.
Poor Nicky. Taking the backseat to Mom's editing deadline. I'm working on my laptop right beside him after serving up a highly nutrious dinner. How sad is that little Burger King meal? He had applesauce for dessert, if that makes it any better. Notice the number of choo choos that come to dinner. This is not such a great pic of Nick.
My daycare drop off wear this morning. You should see my hair, but I would never allow it. I think it's official. This fleece no longer fits. Jealous of my rocking pink countertop? Yes, that's a shell-shaped sink. It's not my bathroom, so it will probably look like this for another 30 years.
Another small victory. I reorganized my bathroom drawer last night. I redid the contact paper, too. That's something I always remember my mother doing, but I've never actually done it myself. It was so easy, I'm tackling the pantry next.

Girl...you are on a roll! Love the fabric for the roman shade. I love this post! I think Nicky should be a cowboy every year for Halloween, he's the cutest one I've ever seen and bet that hat would fit until he's 21! HA! Can't wait to see ya'll tomorrow.
XOXO
You look so great! Also, I remember my mom putting paper down on all of her shelves and drawers too...it's a good idea and something I should do! Don't worry about the BK- the rare fast food outing is no biggie. The whole "I only feed my kids organic food and they never watch TV etc. etc." can get a little old.
