10 Things I Love on Sundays
We’ve had a number of significant events happening at the Gummerman’s house over the past few weeks. Lola lost her first tooth (make it Tooth Fairy Pillow for her and she loves it!) and she started her first ballet/tap dance class.
She looks so grown up in her dance outfit and bun, so I feel like she’s officially in “big kid” territory now and I’ve definitely cried about it more than once. … #typicalmommove.
I basically spent the whole winter indoors waiting for it to end (although we love Valentine’s Day, so we decorated it and celebrated it happily), but there’s one thing. Something has cheered me up this week as I await the signs of spring. .
1. If you want to go with the eyebrow trend and make your brows a little more, I love that gel in this blow them away, but it’s not on the level of madness. I used it with this thin eyebrow pencil so you can draw hair-like strokes for a more natural look.
2. Decide between these braids or these 90s inspired sandals for our upcoming vacation this spring. Which one do you prefer?
3. Speaking of vacations, I have this dress for the beach. So summer!
4. This is one of the best children’s books I’ve seen it before! The pictures are beautiful and there is a button on each page that plays a part of the opera as you read the story. Lola thought it was magical.
I also love that they modified the story a bit so that the princess is a co-hero in the story and not just a miserable girl in distress. Yes a whole seriesand I keep an eye on Swan Lake next.
5. Have you tried nail stickers? I know Emma loves them, so I tried these glitters last week and I was amazed at how well they still function (even through doing some home improvement projects). I will try this next!
6. I like basic bodysuits to wear with jeans, and I have several colors of this. You can combine them in the winter or wear them separately in the warmer months.
7. There are Unique tie curtain for my office. Do you love or hate them??
8. Todd got me this for valentine’s day cause i’m always cold (my friend Jenni told me how much she loves her) and I’m using it right at my desk!
He gave it to me on a Saturday afternoon, and I basically spent the weekend with my feet… that’s it. amazing!
9. Got this chessboard shower curtain for our new bathroom and I can’t wait to hang it up!
10. Have you ever seen pink chai tea? It’s Kashmiri Pink Chai, it’s delicious, and you can get more instant versions like this that my husband and I have come to love. In a similar circuit, this book looks so much fun to make your own beautiful, plant-based treats to sip on before bed.
Also, I did this Easy Grain-Free Granola (Paleo and Gluten Free!) for the first time in a while, and it was GOOD. I forgot about it, but I bought all the ingredients because that’s all I want in the morning. Yum!
Hope you’re looking for ways to make your winter a little brighter! so so. Laura
PS Lola’s cardigan is from hereand this is a pink moto jacket similar to mine.
