Everyday should be a spiffy day!
Athleisure is something I would LIVE in if it were an acceptable practice for a fashion blogger/marketing professional. Until that day comes, I’ll dress up my little one from GAP Kids!!
Here are some more cute options from GAP Kids for your little ones(ok just the girls cause it was cute stuff I would want to wear…)
Here’s a great jacket I found at adult GAP that’s really going to come into play once spring rolls around. Because hint, hint, I saw a lot of this color in the spring collections!
My plan was to do the Yoda thing at one point during my segment, but throwing the verbs at the back of the sentence messes with my MIND. So I figured it would be best to scratch it since it was live TV and all.
Wow, did I have some great stuff to talk about today. It was so fun doing this segment. Even though I’m not a Star Wars fanatic, all of this stuff looks fun. And I can’t say that I’ve had so many things go wrong with my display during a segment before, but it made for a good time ;)
Check out the video from my segment here.
As someone who isn’t big into drones or Star Wars, I still find this thing to be something I really want to play with. I’m sure the Star Wars/drone lover would freak out of their skin. Here’s a link to the Force Band I mention in the segment as well.
And some things I didn’t get to show is all the Star Wars items for kids! GAP kids has an amazing collection of things for the little ones to show off… (They also have some great Disney stuff for the little girls).
Go by and check it out! Right now through Christmas they’re running a sale where you get 50% off your purchase. FIFTY PERCENT!
I’ll have two more posts for you next week and then I’m taking a break from the blog for a bit.
Merry Christmas!
I usually like to celebrate fall the very minute it arrives, even counting down the hours we have left until we’re in the most glorious season of all. This year, however, was a little different.
Fall came in the middle of the night and I had just started celebrating not being awake with Jackson around that same time. But on the first day of fall, Jackson gave me a new reason to celebrate – he smiled at me for the first time!
He gave me the smile while I was making a poop joke, so I can imagine this boys sense of humor hasn’t fallen far from the tree :)
Every little milestone is so exciting and the fact that he reached this one on the first day of my favorite season makes me realize anew how much God loves us and cares about what we care about.
Now I can’t wait to hear him laugh!
Speaking of smiling, if you’re taking family pictures this fall or if your kids need a wardrobe refresh, check out my segment from the week where I talk about some really cute GAP Kids clothes and the new line that lets them be the designers!
By the time you read this, I’ll have a son. Which is a wild group of words to type and then see written out. *Pause* My point with it is I’ve become acutely aware of how important great clothing is for kids. And this is only the beginning.
Gap Kids at West Town Mall has proven to be a great place to buy cool clothing that’s smart (as in functional), durable and mixable! I’m starting to realize the fact that so many of their items can be worn together in different ways is so valuable when you’re trying to get them dressed in something cute and out the door as fast as possible.
I cannot WAIT to dress my little guy up in their stuff!
Take a look at some of the great items they’ve got for back to school (can I borrow a pair of those adorable pleated leopard shorts?). And the backpacks…lets pretend it’s the 90’s and my backpack purse is just larger than normal, OK? OK.
Don’t forget they have a great uniform selection as well. Having been a child who had to wear uniforms I can tell you that having quality stuff from Gap will really save you money, time and frustration in the long run.
The biggest faith project of my life has been this child. Every woman has a different story as to what their pregnancy journey was like, some are a lot harder than others.
I don’t know if I’ll ever share mine, but just know the news of this baby has sent us into a three and a half month celebration. Complete with lots of happy tears…not excluding this moment as I write this, haha.
Every day a new layer of realization that we’re having a child sinks into my brain. There are moments when I feel like the little girl version of me dreaming of the kids I’ll one day have. And in those moments it’s a pretty marvelous thing to think I’ll be able to meet that “future child” in just about six months.
Yesterday I got to announce whether we’re having a boy or girl on the morning show by using really adorable clothes from GAP kids in West Town Mall. Click here to watch it, then keep reading!
It’s Valentine’s week and I’ve fallen in love with a new boy. His name is Jackson Edward.
A name I love not only because it comes from his dad (my husband’s middle name is Edward, as is his dad’s and his grandpa’s). The name Jackson came about first because I love the different sounds. I won’t go into the details, but I really love the sounds the consonants make (I know, word nerd alert) :)
His name is also special because it’s part of the name of my hometown, and the fact that my kid gets to carry that around with him is really cool.
I can’t wait to meet this little man! He’s so deeply loved already, I can’t wait to tell him that to his sweet little face.
Thanks for reading along. The best is yet to come!
