five on friday
one. my guy
how many times do I forget what Jordan actually does for a living. how many times am I brought to my knees in thanksgiving to have him walk through the door after a night full of medical and fire incidents that he is called to be first on the scene.. Irving FD has what they call citizen’s fire academy that are the beating heart and soul of the department. they host parties in honor of retirements. they bring ice cream and sandwiches to active fires and medical scenes (if it weren’t for them the guys sometimes wont eat for hours at a time), and they capture these firemen doing what they do best. last week there was a large apartment fire in Jordan’s district and his station was first to the scene. one of the citizens goes to almost all the fires to take live action photos and he caught a picture of this guy I know just coming out of the heat and heavy black smoke to change his air pack.
he’s like the coolest person on my planet.
two. baby snacks
I am ALWAYS looking for easy baby snacks with a little more nutrition than “puffs”, which Baker is totally over by this point. she is obsessed with yogurt melts (I get these at Target!) and will eat an entire bag, but I came across these multigrain snacks the other day (again, I got them at Target!) and they are almost like cookies! her BB always gives her those snackwell cookies and I texted her this picture and said “no more snackwells!” but that’s probably the best part about BB in all three of my girls’ eyes. she always has the best treats. and she occasionally has a lalaloopsy in her purse.
why my kids LOVE those dolls is so random.

four. pink blush + lily jade.
did you catch my blog post earlier this week? I’m giving away a $50 shop credit to pinkblush! you don’t want to miss it! they have some great transitional items, not just maternity.. and this dress is SO freaking comfortable. you need it.
also.
while I tend to gravitate towards the warmer earth tones of brown and orange, the cailin in black from none other than lily jade is SO good! the best shape and the canvas/leather combo is genius.. and its on sale. SALE my friends. a diaper bag that doesn’t look like a diaper bag. lily jade has got you covered!
five. weekend sales
is the turtle neck BACK?! ya’ll. I went through a phase about 6 years ago when all I had in my closet as far as sweaters go were cowl and legit turtlenecks. something about the preppy style and classic look gets me drawn in as something to wear during the fall and winter months. I got my LOFT email this morning and its BOGO 50% off right now on their tops and sweaters. Gap also has a couple of fun things (and more turtlenecks!). I am totally digging this layered look.. and its 40% everything (online only) if you use code TGIF before noon and 35% after noon (PT). get your shop on, ladies!

I've been wondering the same thing about the turtleneck… is it true that it's back??!
If only Camp Gladiator would come to MN!
