so what! wednesday!!

hey hey! it's wednesday, which clearly means we all survived yet another manic monday and are one step closer to friday! and all the stay-at-home-mama's all resound with a big 'so what!'. am i right or am i right??? ha! actually, my sweet hub has had a break with his business a little lately, which means we have actually shared a few meals this past week and got him home for more than just a couple bedtimes! ptl! i'm linking up with shannon to post some of my 'so what's'! this is one of my fav link-ups cause it's slightly passive aggressive, but super fun and relatable to read!

-so what if i've needed a pedicure for a solid 2 months (hello, awful midwestern rough, dry, winter feet!)... we are going to the bahamas in like a week and i'm holding out for that sweet moment where my nasty feet hit that bubbly water goodness and all will be well with the world again!

-so what if i'm only 15 weeks pregnant, i'm feeling large & in charge. and it's only gonna get worse from here on out, folks! (i do feel the need to say that i haven't gained any weight since being pregnant, but i'm not quite sure how that's possible when my ta-ta's and belly are significantly larger!!)

-so what if i've been buying lip products from target like they're going out of style and returning the ones that don't quite fit the bill. i spend loads of moolah at that store and they only make me feel guilty for returning them about 30% of the time. lipstick is expensive, guys, and if it's not the right color, texture or whatever else, i ain't keeping it!

-so what if we ran out of milk over the weekend mainly because i baked choc chip cookies and needed a nice, tall glass of milk to compliment those fresh, gooey, chocolatey bites of heaven!  holden woke up saturday morning pretty upset that i couldn't refill his sippy, but it was worth every whine! don't worry... he had enough milk to last him til lunch and we made a target run amidst the snowstorm to get him his crack!

-so what if holden has been taking the shortest naps ever (only an hour) for days now and it's making me straight crazy. that kid needs his sleep and his mama needs a break from toddler nonsense for more than an hour (cause, let's be honest... I always bank on at least two hours, so the first 30-45 min are relaxing & a waste of time!)!!!!!

do you have anything you want to say 'so what!' to this week?? 

so what! wednesday

through my lack of blogging lately, I can honestly say that I often thought of lots of 'so whats', but never got around to posting them. and for what it's worth, know that even if I'm not physically blogging, I'm 100% mentally blogging! anyone else do that??

anyways, here's what I'm saying 'so what!' to today!

-so what if people keep complimenting me on my short lil bob haircut, I'm growing this nonsense out! it was poor planning to chop my hair off into a hair cut that really can't afford to not be styled daily when I am pregnant & need my pony tail!!! 

-so what if I've been praying for more & more snow while the rest of indiana is hoping for the opposite! if it's gonna be cold anyways, we may as well have snow, people!

-so what if every room of our house needs picked up & deep cleaned, yet I'm sitting on the couch. 

-so what if I get annoyed when I order a caramel frappucinno w extra caramel drizzle and they don't do extra drizzle!!! how is it that complicated?! this prego needs her drizzle and at $5 a pop, I deserve a lil extra caramel!

-so what if I'm a little more dramatic than normal... I am pregnant after all!

-so what if I still have a handful of christmas cards that are addressed, but still haven't been sent. at this point, if seems a little silly to send them. would a 'better late than never :)' note on the envelope make it more acceptable? probably not!

-so what if my vacuum (yes, the one that needs to be used in every dirty room of this house) never seems to be put away. it sits in this corner of our living room all the time. drives me crazy, but it's a pain to put it away when I should be using use it regularly!

I'm linking up w shannon!

so what! wednesday

hey hey! it's mid-week and although this doesn't mean much for me as a stay at home mama... i still appreciate that i not only survived another monday, but i made it through half of the week. big deal, folks! i'm linking up w shannon to tell you my so what's of the week!

-so what if my sweet boy has not slept through the night nor stayed in his own bed for probably two weeks now. i'm a zombie, but at least i don't have to get up and go to work after a rough night!

-so what if I need new windshield wipers and the replacements have been in the garage for a week. today's rainy weather might just be enough motivation to actually change them!

-so what if holden's 2nd bday party is on sunday and i haven't bought a single thing, made a single dish or prepared in any way, shape or form. it'll all come together somehow... right?

-so what if i miss my besties more than words can say... some girls just get you and, unfortunately for me, all my girls live in other states! :(

-so what if indianapolis is only an hour away... it feels like an eternity. i am going to force myself to make the trip next week, though. it just seems like it's been awhile & i need some big city in my life!

-so what if I've been realllllly strict w my eating, but all i can think about right now are the reese's pumpkins that i desperately tried to find discounted after halloween & they were sold out. whatever!

what are your so what's today???

so what! wednesday: florida edition

we are loving our lives on vacation right now and having a great time!! we head home tomorrow, so that's bittersweet, but there's no place like home! looking forward to getting back to indiana fall and maybe putting away tanks & shorts for a few months! here's my so what wednesday from the sunshine state! :)

- so what if we have been on vacay for 10 days, but we could still appreciate just a couple more before we head back to the real world of strict diets, schedules & cooking at home. 

- so what if we became "those parents" that bought our toddler a toy from disney even though he 100% wouldn't have cared if we didn't. when in rome...

- so what if i married a weirdo. last night, grant said to me 'this world needs a grant jr'... i replied with 'we have a grant jr, this world needs a misty jr' and he goes on to say 'no, we need another son and we will name him grant jr'. hahaha a) where did that come from? b) absolutely not. 

- so what if the friends we have stayed w the lat couple nights have the sweetest dog that holden loves and would love to have at our house... it ain't happenin anytime soon!

- so what if i always said i wouldn't buy a leather couch (just not my style, really)... i already know we will buy a leather couch next time around. word to the wise: don't buy microfiber if you have any intentions of having kids. who knew?

- so what if the jewels continuously fall out of my nose rings. it's annoying, to say the least. 

- so what if i had half a disney cookie and a bite of a disney pb cup for breakfast. oops. 

hope you guys have all had a great wednesday so far! link up w shannon to share your so whats!!

so what! wednesday!

hey all! after yesterday's kind of downer post, i figured i'd lighten things up today w a fav SWW post! i am linking up w shannon today to bring you my "so whats"! join in on the fun & link up, too! :)

-so what if i bought holden a cadillac potty chair that is cars movie themed and the 'flusher' sounds like an engine starting... even though i have no intention of potty training til he's at least 2 1/2!

-so what if i have been splurging on flavored k-cups lately. i have recently stopped using flavored creamers and needed a little bit of variety in my life!

-so what if i sometimes sing along to barney & dora. yes, i know every word and never thought i'd be "that mom". oh, the strange things motherhood does to you!!!

-so what if the only dinner i've cooked in the last week was pulled pork in the crock pot. we still have some leftovers and they're still delicious! whatever!

-so what if i have completely neglected all of my plants for the last couple weeks. i have 100% moved into fall mode and they are probably super dehydrated... especially since it's supposed to be 79 here today. oops!

-so what if my car currently looks like i live in it. i have a million bags full of stuff to return and haven't had the time/motivation (mainly motivation...) to hit all those stores! especially w a toddler!

-so what if we leave for florida in less than a week and i haven't started packing yet! and i was hoping to not have to wash shorts/tank tops again before i pack, but our bi-polar weather decided it's still summer, so that's just not gonna be the case!

-so what if i pulled out the real camera yesterday while holden and i were playing outside... and he was wearing a tshirt, sweat pants, his hair wasn't done & he had cracker crumbs all over his mouth! just another reason photoshop is my friend...

-so what if i get just a little angry every time loft emails me about a sale or promotion because we don't have a loft here... and it is just slightly depressing.

hope my "so what's" make your "so what's" seem not so bad!! ha!

so what! wednesday

it's wednesday... and midweek tends to give me a 'so what' kind of attitude anyways, so here's a few of my latest 'so what's'! link up if you want to join in on the fun!

-so what if my house is slightly trashed... my nails are finally painted!

-so what if 'big brother' is the show i get most excited about right now...

-so what if i have days where i'm seriously jealous of every single person i know that is pregnant.

-so what if i'm excited for fall, but not ready to give up my flip flops. guess it's my 'i lived in florida for 7 years' blood in me.

-so what if i threw away my whole crock pot because the lid handle broke off... that thing was UGLY and i've hated it for the last 6 yrs!

-so what if holden is turning two in a short 2 months and i haven't planned a single thing!

link up w shannon at 'life after i dew' if you want to experience the liberating SWW! ha

so what wednesday.

i'm a newbie to the 'so what wednesday', but it sounds like fun & i'm giving it a shot!

-so what if we are on attempt #3 for a nap today & instead of doing something productive, i am sitting on the couch watching giuliana & bill and drinking coffee (yes, in 96 degree weather...). 

-on that same note, so what if lunch has been sitting on the counter waiting to be cleaned up for 2 hours. 

-so what if it's mid-sept and my allergies are ruining my life... i'll be in sunny florida in less than a month!!!

-so what if i haven't painted my toe nails in literally like a month. that's a major record for me and my feet need some serious tlc. 

-so what if my wallet is overflowing w coupons i intend to use, but somehow always forget to use.

this is kinda fun... not gonna lie!! you should try it, too! link up w shannon!
