Sandal season



Here in Iowa it may never be nice enough to wear sandals again it seems. But assuming that summer will eventually arrive I bought both these pairs of sandals on my lunch break today. They were only $4.98 each in the store! Woo hoo! Now I just have to give myself a pedicure so I can show my toes in public and I'm all set for summer. They are more expensive online but you can link to the red ones and/or the yellow ones.

My sister and I bought these at Christmas time. And now the spring colored versions are on sale. If you buy it in store it's only $3.74. I love them! They're soft and cute and short enough that I don't get all tangled up in my sheets (I hate that about longer nightgowns!) and long enough that I can walk around the house with the curtains open without giving the neighbors a peep show. I think it's light enough to be worn through the rest of the spring and early summer.

It's Earth Day!


In honor of Earth Day I thought I'd post the reusable shopping bags I use. They are called ChicoBags. My BFF since 7th grade, Dorothy, gave me one for Christmas a couple years ago and since then I have ordered several for myself and for friends. I have several of the "original" and one of the "vita." They're not too expensive and they fold right up and fit in a purse or diaper bag or glove compartment. 

Teal dress


I ordered this from oldnavy.com and it arrived yesterday! I haven't had a chance to try it on yet but I'm hoping it fits because I love it. Well, I love dresses in general. There's no matching involved. Check out the entire clearance section at oldnavy.com, the selection and sizes are easier to navigate than the mess they have in stores.

Little tikes rocking puppy


Daycare has two of these, only they are horses, not puppies. I can't find the horse version available anywhere online. And I can't find puppy or horse in stores. I went to THREE Walmarts in one day. THREE! Now I enjoy shopping and I'm not opposed to Walmart, but you know how Walmart is...by the third one I was in physical pain. So after not finding the toy in any of our local stores, I bought it online. And I'm pretty happy that $22 plus shipping are going to bring my one-year-old pure joy!

Shopping spree



I had the week off of work last week. On Thursday I decided to go power shopping so I hit the mall to get the baby some summer clothes. I LOVE The Children's Place. I got a whole bunch of baby girl stuff for 30% off the sale price. WOO HOO! I probably bought more than we need which defeats the purpose of a good deal and doesn't actually save money but at least I didn't pay full price. If you have a kid, GO THERE NOW!
