WWWW

Guess who's back?  Back again?  No, not Slim Shady.  Its us with WWWW!  Its been a couple weeks.  I'm soooooorey.  Literally I feel like the weeks are just melting one into the next and before I know it its WWWW again.  I think I might just do once a month cause ain't nobody got time fa dat!  I do love doing it, its just life man.  Life is busy!  Church, school, family get togethers, laundry, groceries... Life man.  Life.  Anywho!  Here is what we wore this past weekend for church.  In case you're not aware WWWW stands for What We Wore Wednesday, but its not necessarily what we wore ON Wednesday, but sometime that week.  Cause we keep it real and know that we don't always have time.  So pick a day and post your outfits too! 

So on my little Liam is some dark red "skinny" jeans from Old Navy.  First off they're too big still, lol... But I really wanted him to wear them.  I even washed them to see if they would shrink first.  They did not.  Haha!  But he still looks adorable.  Then he has his chambray button up from Target.  I love chambray it goes with ANYTHING.  And of course his little mini shoes from Robeez.  I love that I was able to stand him up and take his picture.  He literally stood there for me.  He had just seen Christian so he, of course, does whatever his brother does.  Its cute!  :)

On Christian is a gingham red, blue, and white button up from Target.  Which will probably be the last time he wears it cause the boy is growing.  Make it stop!!  His pants are skinnies from JCPenney's.  I love skinnies on this kid!  And shoes are from Old Navy.

On moi is a lovely navy skirt from who knows where.  It was given to me.  :)  The pink tank is from Old navy, chartreuse cardi from Target.  And the pièce de résistance, my infinity scarf.  You guys, I love my scarf.  It ties it all together and it's from.... Walmart!  Heck yeah!  They have every color and some more flowery patterns!  Run, don't walk -- cause they're only like $7.  Sometimes you find little gems at Walmart.  Oh, and my lovely peep toe platform heels are Nine West.  I've had them for like 5 years...?  I love them.  I hope nothing ever happens to them.  I will cry a thousand tears. 

Ok, so don't forget to head on over the head honcho who started WWWW>>> A Life From Scratch.  Leave us both some love below!  Till next week... or if I post a REAL blog post.. haha, sure...

Belated WWWW

Sorry guys! I'm a day late and a penny short, BUT I am here!  :)  I didnt have my own outfit picture until today.  One week just seems to run right into the other and I was super duper tired last week so I didn't get any pictures of myself.  But here we are! 

First on Christian...  He has on some awesome skinny chinos by Shaun White for Target.  I guess he's a skater guy designing his own jeans now.  All I know is I got them clearance for $9.50, so YAY!  I love the dark teal color.  His shirt is from Crewcuts.  A nice cerulean blue. (Yes I am specific with my colors because I am a girl.).  I love just mixing and matching colors that semingly don't go.  It seems anything goes these days anyway! And his shoes are from Old Navy.

On Liam... he has on a some adorable green jeans that he got for his birthday.  I am not sure of the brand or store.  Sorry! But I love them!   And his shirt is from Target.  Shoes from Robeez.  I love this chambray style shirt with the green jeans.  It maybe be fall, but these colors still rock! 

And finally on my boring self, haha...  A chartreuse colored cardi.  My favorite, favorite cardi!  I love this color!  It mixes with everything believe it or not. I got it at target like 3-4 years ago.  My skirt is a maxi skirt from I can't remember.  (wow doing great on that today, huh?)  And shoes are from Target from a few years ago as well.  I'm wearing my glasses because my eyes are being wonky and getting irritated with my contacts.  I am not a fan of wearing glasses. 

What are YOU and YOURS wearing???  Share! 

p.s. sorry for the crappy pics.  I am such a slacker this week.

WWWW

I snapped a couple pics of my boys as we went out to get family pictures this past weekend with my mother-in-law who was visiting.  I didn't get a good outfit pic of my outfit, so its just the boys today.  They're way cuter anyway! 

 

I feel like these are old news because I posted them on my photography page, on my facebook cover picture, etc.  BUT what I'm showing off here is their outfits. 

 

On Christian is a button up from JCPenney's.  I love the color scheme of coral, peach, and navy.  And of course the token khaki pants from Target. His shoes you can't see but they're like boat shoes from Old Navy.

 

On Liam is an adorable romper that our pastor's wife gave to him for his birthday.  SO cute!  I believe its Carters... One of my favorite outfits of his that I will be so sad when he outgrows.  Its got sailboats on it!  For shoes he has some navy Robeez that I scored while they were having a sale. ;)

 

 

 

 

WWWW

Hey guys!  I took last week off cause it just seems the weeks run into the next and I don't barely have time to sit and relax.  But we're back this week!  And here I am with my boys.

First off on me is my favorite top ever from Francesca's Collections.  I usually wear it out with a short skirt, but I changed it up today.  My gray pleasted skirt is from another favorite online store Ruche.  I adore all their stuff and they're pretty affordable!  My shoes are Forever 21 from forever ago.  :)

On Christian is one of the shirts I got him from JCrew with the gift card I won through A Life From Scratch give away.  Can't wait to show the rest of the stuff he got in future WWWW.  I made $50 go a long way with sales!  :)  His pants are from Target I believe.  I can't remember exactly.  But you've seen one khaki, you've seen them all.  Finally his shoes are from Old Navy that he got for his Easter outfit.

On Mr. Liam is a romper I got him for his birthday from Target.  I love it!  Its red & gray gingham.  Oh how I love gingham print on boys! His shoes are Robeez soft soled shoes that my mom found at a consignment shop for $2.  I mean you can't beat that anywhere!  Also I want to point out that this is his first STAND ALONE picture!  The boy is walking and standing on his own!  Make time stop!!!

Hey guys, another week, another tired mama.. :)  I feel like the weeks are going by so fast one after the other.  Before I know it another WWWW is here.  But I managed to snap a few pics amidst the comings and goings of our life. 

As far as labor day weekend, we didn't do much. Did a tiny bit of shopping since its the best weekend for sales. On actual labor day we sat around the house all morning and then my husband had to leave for work. After Liam woke up from his afternoon nap we headed to over to my mom's house where she made some delicious fish tacos complete with guac, pico de gallo, and some salsa verde. Pure deliciousness!


{Linking up with A Life From Scratch... go check them out!}

On me is a cardi I got at Kohl's.  All their summer/spring stuff is on sale now, so go!  Get some good colorful stuff for CHEAP!  My black skirt I've had for a while.  Its from JCPenney's.  I love the back split because its closed off with a pleat.  You can't see it in this picture though. My shirt is from Macy's and I've also had that for a few years.  Although you can find these ruffle shirts everywhere now a days.  And the shoes from Forever 21. 

On Christian a shirt I just got for him at JCPenney's.  I love the soft colors of it.  I seem to buy him 1 of 2 things: plaid or stripes. haha!  The pants are also from JCPenney's and as always my boy looks good in a pair of skinny's.   And the shoes are bootie type shoes from Old Navy.

On Liam is a cute little brown overal and orange/white striped shirt he got as a birthday gift.  That picture is as good as it got for him.  He is mobile and doesn't want to stay still for anyone! 

WWWW

Hey guys!  Welcome back to another WWWW.  I have some good and bad news for you.  Bad news: YOU did not win the $50 Crewcuts gift card that A Life From Scratch was giving away for linking up to her blog in last week.  Good news: I DID!!!  See?  It pays (sometimes) to link up!  ;) I was so excited, because I truly never win anything.  The last thing I won a couple years ago was a gift certificate from my job for a restaurant that was almost expired and only good if you spent a certain amount first.  Umm.. that's not a prize.  So after you're done here, make sure and go to A Life From Scratch and also Toronto Mama to see their adorable families and what they wore. 

Well, anyway, we are back with some more outfits.  Mine is pretty much a repeat of a couple months ago, except for my shoes.  I got those recently at www.shoemint.com.  Side note: I was boasting their praises just a couple months ago when I got 3 pairs of shoes on sale for $50'ish.  I need to clarify that they are a shoe "club" and if you buy from them you are joining their club and agree to spend a certain amount per month or they charge your account.  I learned this the hard way.  You do have the first 5 days of the month to pass on them charging your account and you can do this every month.  I did not know that.  They say its in the fine print, but who reads the fine print on everything?!  I called and argued, but they refused to refund.  So anyway, they charge your account and it becomes your credit that you can use at anytime for a year.  I think they have great shoes and great deals, but need to be A LOT more up front about how it works.  Back to the outfit.  So I love these shoes and their color!  Great for when you want a pop of color.  I also love this shirt. Aztecs prints are in! 

On Christian is one of my favorite Old Navy shirts, Old Navy shorts, and Old Navy shoes, haha!  Do you think we like Old Navy??  They just have the cutest and durable stuff for boys.

And finally Liam has a cute little v-neck (my favorite part!) he got for his birthday.  I believe its from Target.  Its a greenish yellow, but looks just yellow here.  His pants are hand-me-down's from Christian.  I love them because they roll up and button to become shorts.  He just woke up before this picture so he has sleepy face and some slight bedhead. :)  And yes that's a PS3 remote he's holding.  Whatever makes him happy for my picture.

Hey peoples!  (Do I have peoples??)  I almost didn't do this WWWW post because I forgot last night to have the post ready to go, but my lovely husband sent me the pictures and I was able to do them here on my lunch break. :)

So these picturse are from this past Sunday.  It was HOT.  Lord have mercy!  And humid.  I have to give credit where credit is due and let you know that Christian took the picture of Liam and I!  A budding photographer??  Maybe...

So on me is one of my favorite tops because its my current favorite color (coral) and its light and best of all was $7.  At walmart y'all.  WALMART.  Ain't no shame in my game. I bought it back in February because we had couple's night we were going to be going to that night.  I said "let me stop into walmart and see what I can find.  You never know.."  And I found this on the clearance rack!  Its a soft rayon on top (1/3) and cotton on bottom (2/3).  I love the mixed materials. My skirt is from Old Navy bought around the same time.  They probably still have some.  And my shoes are from Target  I got those when I was pregnant because I knew I would be giving up my 5 inch heels and wedges are better than flats for pregnant backs. I still wear them all the time.  Very comfortable and cute.

On Christian is a cute plaid shirt from Target.  It was going to be his Easter shirt and then we found something else. The pants from who knows where.  Probably target.  No shoes because the boy takes his shoes off as soon as we get home.  He just got a fresh hair cut for back to school!  Looking all dapper and grown up!

And on Liam is a couple of new pieces he just for his birthday.  Some adorable green pants and a plaid shirt.  Its Chaps.  I love Chaps!  And his adorable sandals from Babies R Us (Truly Scrumptious brand from Heidi Klum's baby line).

Hope you enjoyed and make sure and link up with us down below!  "Us" being Toronto Mama and A Life From Scratch who I link with.  There's a bonus today!!  If you go to A Life From Scratch and link up with her, you get entered for a chance to win a $50 gift card from Crewcuts (JCrew)!!  Go now!  :) It doesn't necessarily have to be what you wore on Wednesday, but whatever day, whenever.  I know everyone's schedules are packed, especially with school starting up.  Just fun to share our cute finds and outfits.

WWWW!!

Hey guys!  We're back after a hiatus of a few weeks.  There was sickness and then birthday party planning and then my laptop charger died because Liam is apparently a daredevil and likes to suck on things with an electric current...  Mom of the year right?   But in between the madness, I got these pics and I was never able to post them.  And I even got Fifo's out fit this time!  :)  So here is our What We Wore Wednesday!  (a few days later)

So on me is a brown skirt I got from a consignment shop called Plato's Closet.  I think they're nationwide.  Love that store.  My favorite and versatile beige sweater and white tank top are from Old navy.  My shoes.. oh my shoes..  :)  those are the shoes I share about a few weeks ago.  My favorite pair of shoes right now.  They're from Shoemint.  Go check them out!  I found out about them from my favorite fashion blog Kendi Everyday and so I trusted them.  And she didn't let me down.  They're semi comfortable, lol.. but beauty is pain right?!  haha!  Seriously though, they're not bad.  What I like is the color and I'm excited to mix them into my wardrobe come fall.

On Christian are my favorite skinny jeans on him.  He just has this model body that everything looks good on.  And a hand me down shirt from a friend.

On Liam is a hand me down overall from his brother from Osh Kosh.  His shirt is a onesie gift he recieved.  The shoes I got recently at Babies R Us.  They're Truly Scrumptious which I believe is Heidi Klum's kids fashion line.  They're perfect for his fat little feet and I got them on sale.  SCORE!  :)

And last, but not least, my husband Fifo.  He's wearing his favorite shirt from his favorite football team.   I have no idea where he got it from, but if you must know I can ask next time I see him, he's at work at the moment.  Cargo shorts from our favorite store, Old Navy.  And the shoes are Nike's from Sport Authority.  Nothing matches, but I mean, he's a man.  It is what it is.  ;)

**As I am editing this, I notice Liam's little toe sticking out of his sandal, LOL!!!  Ah well..  He wasn't crying!

Don't forget to head on over to Toronto Mama and A Life From Scratch to see what they're wearing!

Hey guys!  Another week, another WWWW!  I've been horrible with keeping up with blog posts, except for this one.  I'm trying to get some DIY posts together, so that's coming soon!  I've also started planning Liam's 1st birthday party, which is gonna be Sock Monkey theme.  I'm excited!  I'll post a blog FULL of pictures once that over and done with.  That's not till August though.  But anyway, without further ado, our WWWW post.  I tried to go with a red, white, and blue color scheme since its 4th of July week.

My top is from one of my favorite stores, Francesca's Collections.  If I could buy everything in there, I would!  They know me so well!  Check them out, but be warned, you'll be smitten!  The shirt is white with blue stripes.  I don't think that comes across, so just saying.  The denim skirt is from H&M.  And lastly my shoes are from Target.  I got those like 4 years ago and I love them!  They're holding up for as much as I use them.

Next up, Christian.  (Don't you just love his pose?  lol!  I said let me take your picture and that's what he gave me.)  His shirt is from Target.  That was his Easter outfit shirt from last year.  And the red pants are from JCPenney.  I love skinny jeans on this boy!  He's got the perfect body for them.   Shoes from Old Navy.

And lastly my little Liam is wearing a hand me down romper and I have no idea the brand.  I don't think its a known brand.  Let me just say, Liam has like 101 rompers, so that's pretty much what he lives in.  I'm gonna try and change it up next week, haha!  And his shoes are my favorite type of shoes for my pre-walking boy, soft-soled Ministar from Target.

Can you tell I used my real camera?  :-D  I've been itching to take real pictures and just do a photoshoot.  I love a good crisp picture.  And with that I give a shameless plug…  Call me if you want to do a photoshoot!!  Check out my photography Facebook page: JVPhotography

(Don't forget to head on over to Toronto Mama and A Life From Scratch to check out their little families styles!)

WWWW

Time for another edition of… "What We Wore Wednesday"!  I promised a more casual post and here it is!  Again, no husband in the pictures cause he was at work.  :(  And once again linking up with Toronto Mama and A Life From Scratch.  Check out these awesome mama bloggers!  They both are so creative and all around awesome ladies!

I love this shirt!  I just got it this weekend at Marshall's so I don't know the brand.  But I love the patterns. I cannot for the life of me remember what this pattern is known as… if someone knows, HELP!  The sweater is my favorite sweater at the moment since it goes with everything.  The jean skirt I've had for forevah!  The cute little strappy sandals are from Victoria's Secret outlet.  We have a huge one here and I got these there like 5 years ago for like $5.

Liam is wearing yet another adorable romper from Carters that I got at Target.  The boy lives in rompers cause they're easy and cute!  I love the color of this one.  Oh and those are little sailboats on there.

Christian is wearing my favorite top that I got him from Old Navy.  I love the stripes (which I'm addicted to right now) and the colors.  The pants are from Target. Socks from walmart, lol!  I forgot to put shoes on him.  This picture was here at my house, so I didn't think about it.

I promise this week I am going to start using my REAL camera for pictures.  Camera phone pictures for my blog is killing me!

And here are some more just for fun!  The bottom picture I didn't realize would come out as cute as it did and I am happy I caught it!  BTW, all from a self-timer camera app I got for free.  :)

WWWW

So a couple of the blogging mamas that I follow, Toronto Mama and A Life From Scratch have started a weekly blog post called "What We Wore Wednesday".  So I decided to link up with them every Wednesday and show off our outfits.  It can be same day outfits or another day previous, since we all know we all lead busy lives.  So here is what we wore this past Sunday.  I usually do Sunday outfit posts because its when we all look our nicest! :)  During the week the kids wear just bummin/comfy outfits for daycare and or to stay at home.  One day I'll do a Saturday outfit.

So here we are!

On me:
Sweater from Old navy.  I love this sweater and the color.  Goes with everything!
Navy skirt was given to me (gotta love that!) *don't know the brand
Layered yellow top from Forever 21
Nude pumps from Target.  These shoes also go with everything and I do pair them up with everything!  (I am loving the color blocking with different colors that seemingly don't go, but compliment each other very well.)

On Liam:
Blue and brown verticle striped linen romper.  I believe its from Jack and Jill.  This was a hand me down from Christian.  One of my favorite outfits!

On Christian:
Polo button up plaid shirt
Khakis from Target
Shoes from Old Navy

 I kinda sorta tried to color coordinate us.  Its hard with boys.  :)








Daddy and his boys!

Next time I'll try and get the husband, but he usually gets comfortable right after church (loosens up or takes off tie, etc).  Although I did get a picture of him with the boys since it was Father's Day.  Fifo's shirt is from Nordstrom Rack.


**Please excuse the quality of my pictures.  I need to start taking more pictures with my REAL camera and not just my phone camera. Although, its not that bad.
