ramona was a giraffe on saturday, a jack-o-lantern on sunday, and–because all her costumes were dirty–simply the cutest little baby you ever did see on monday.
happy halloween.
after eight days away from the homestead and eight days having a fabulous time w family, it was time to return. and it is so great to be back.
when travelling i try to keep it simple.
try being the operative word here.
from head to toe:
dove bar
cetephil daily facial moisturizer w spf 15
dr hauschka rose day cream (more necessary in drier climates like denver)
present clear make-up
eyelash curler
maybelline great lash, blackest black mascara
benefit liquid benetint (for cheeks and lips)
aveda phomollient
aveda control paste
toothbrush
brush and comb
as you can see, i totally forgot to pack deodorant.
(i keep goods like shampoo/conditioner/toothpaste at my parents’ house so i don’t have to always pack them!)
wake up time!: in our favorite sleep sack
plaid tunic w brown leggings: geniune kids oshkosh at target
birchwood cafe breakfast w nona, savory pumpkin waffle, working on rolling over, naps by the fire, costume changes (“respect your mother” baby gap outfit from jasmin with trumpette subtle mary janes from nona. thank you!)
tomorrow we go back home to denver. it’s been fun but the two of us have been itching to see jp.

melinda: HAHAHAHAHAHA. bean hasn’t pooped since that blowout. we leave tomorrow. i’m nervous.
the following outfit was short-lived:
cardigan: american apparel (thanks nona!)
striped shirt: thrifted zutano
black pants: thrifted
pink satin bow socks: trumpette lucy’s (via nona at pacifier. thank you!)
BLOW (wait for it)
cardigan: american apparel (thanks nona!) lunch at brasa, cortado and mast brothers chocolate at dogwood, hair styling at chicky’s, dinner w bree at crave, feeling of accomplishment on words with friends. i also stopped by my old jr high to visit my very favorite, most influential teacher, mrs homans, whom i had in 5th and 6th grade. we chatted over coffee and all was affirmed as to why i keep going back to say hello and let her know how great she was in my young life. ***

OUT
(please notice empty wipes container [i actually went through two stashes]).
melinda: my dad is thoroughly wonderful and thoughtful. his example of love is how i ended up with a man like jp — i knew i wouldn’t settle for anything less. i am having a beautiful time here and would stay for much longer if i didn’t miss my dear old bubs back home so so so much (or have a job that resumed on monday).
