Jeans vs Leggings

I have to say it. I don't like jeans. Don't get me wrong I love the look of jeans its the feel of  jeans I hate. The just feel so restrictive to me. I however love leggings. I could live in them. So when I found jean leggings I was all about trying them on. Sold. I loved them. Plus they were on sale and girls love a sale. I chose black over blue but I might have to go back and give them a try. I couldn't find a good pic of the black ones. Hence the pic of blue. I found the HUE brand at my local Nordstom in the hosiery department.
So in the battle of jeans and leggings.....leggings win hands down for me.
But there is a time and a place and I am sure if I looked hard enough, long enough, and spent enough money I could find that comfy cute pair of jeans.

Your thoughts ladies?

Resolutions

Resolutions, we all have them. One of mine was a goal to run a half marathon and that is coming up soon. I didn't realize even Presley had some. It is quite cute actually. Her teacher had her write 2010 and under each number was a resolution. Are you ready for them? I was dying when I first read them.
1. I am going to eat more fruits.
2. I am going to exercise.
3. I am going to read more.
4. I am going to make more money.
Apparently she listens to me more than I realize. This sounds like a 40 year old womans list not an eight year olds. The kicker for me was  number four....really more money. I was unaware that she had made much last year. lol
Lets put it out there. What were some of your resolutions you have stuck with?

Happy Friday! I just wanted to share a creepy picture of Presley while getting a "facial" from her aunties. Ha ha I love this chick. Have a great weekend.

AHHHMAZING

   Oh yes, I saw Michael Buble` in concert last night. Be still my beating heart. He is oh so dreamy. Swoon.

He was so ahhhmazing live. His voice ah his voice its like velvet or silk.

 I definitely fell in love with him all over last night.

I was so lucky to score a ticket from my sis Morgan since she ran away to North Carolina to see her now fiancé . Lucky me! I ended up going with my Mom (she is 3rd from the left), my sis Kat (2nd from the left), my Aunt Venisa (4th from the left), and four cousins. We were running so late we didn't get a whole group picture and also because we weren't all seated together.

We started the night at The Cheesecake Factory which is always a good choice. I also already knew they had  a sugar free cheesecake option and I was all about that. I splurged and had a virgin margarita and it was fantastic! Then it was off to all that Michael yummyness.

I am so bushed from being sick and staying up late but it was so great! If you have the chance to go....GO! You won't regret it.

Babycakes Yum

I think I died and went to heaven and it is dark chocolate and dense and fudgey. I saw a plaque in a chocolate shop that said "If there is no chocolate in Heaven, I don't want be there" I have to say I completely agree. I love chocolate. LOVE.IT. I have been shunning wheat and sugar once again due to my allergies. This really cuts into my chocolate affair. We need each other. We love each other. We might be star-crossed lovers. Is that over the top? Whatever....
Uggg its not fun.at.all.
The End.
But I heard about a vegan, gluten free, mostly sugar free cookbook over at GOOP. I love GOOP! Anyway the cookbook is Babycakes. I love it. I have made the banana bread a few times and it the best banana bread ever. I have also made the chocolate cupcakes and I kid you not they are the bomb! So good. I have eaten at least 8-9 but who cares they're healthy. Stop judging me. I have been clean for 6 weeks. I needed a fix. If you have allergies you need this cookbook. Or if you want to gorge on delicious healthy treats to your hearts content, you need this book. Plus she has testimonials from famous peoples who have allergies and love her stuff and that will make you feel totally fabulous and part of some exclusive club. I can't wait to try more of the recipes.
P.S. Be fore warned....I tried the frosting and was not in love but the cupcakes are so good I don't care.

Wishing

Oh, I would just die to have a closet like this. Organized to the T and soooo beautiful. Maybe one day...

Dads, Selfishness, Oceans, and the Me Show...

About 75% of the time I can appreciate that fact that Daniel lives an ocean away from me. I enjoy the space. He is intense. And I am not going lie I am selfish. I like Presley all to myself and I can pretend all is well and I don't have to share her. Sooner or later reality rears its ugly little head and I have to ship my favorite little person across an ocean and share her with her Dad. Of course I know the importance of Presley seeing her Dad and having a good relationship with him and vice versa. I am just speaking totally selfishly right now. Only my side of the story. Its my life, my blog, its about me.
Unfortunately its that time again. She left about a week and a half ago. I miss her. I hate it. I try to make the best out of it. The more crap I fill my day with them less time I have to miss her (in therory). I spend a lot of time exercising. I am training for a 1/2 marathon. I am trying to read like crazy, clean and organize my room, and get some sort of life plan (which I am actually making headway and a decision). At the end of the day I still miss her. Its makes me cry. I miss her smile. Her cuddles. The way she gets as close as she possibly can to me while she is sleeping. The way she smells after running around outside. I even miss her crazy obnoxiousness when 9 pm hits.
I spoke to her last night and she sang me an Opera song she wrote. The lyrics were: Mommy I love you so very much. It made my heart smile and this time away from her more bearable. She promised she would sing it for me the next time we talk. I might make her sing it every time we talk.
