Seattle (Where My Hungry Little Heart Is)

Friday, August 29, 2014
Oh hey, Friday
We are kicking off a 4 day weekend over here! Conor took today off so that we can beat the Labor Day traffic and get right into the mountains for.... Liam's 1st camping trip! We won't be car camping or campsite camping... Oh no, we will be wilderness camping! Just a nice 3 mile hike to a lake where we will be packing in all our gear. Conor will have Liam and as much as we can shove into that pack, while I'll be hauling the rest. It's only for one night, but I'm still nervous. Excited, but anxious! Wish us luck and pray that I don't pee all over my pants while attempting to do so in the woods! Here's my weekly five; thanks to the two beautiful hosts Karli & Amy!

I of course ordered Liam some Halloween pajamas, which will also be acceptable to wear come Monday! I love this pair, which are totally gender neutral!
-FIVE-
Right now is the perfect time for peaches in Utah! I plan on buying a few baskets at the farmer's market this weekend. Next step will be to pin a good handle of recipes on Pinterest. I definitely want to make a traditional peach pie, and I'm eyeing this recipe from Smitten Kitchen. Anyone have a favorite peach recipe they want to send my way?

I hit up one of B&BW candle sales last week, so I could stock up for Fall. I went with Leaves & Vanilla Chai and I cannot wait to start burning them! I have a rule: no Fall stuff til September 1st! But come Monday, I will be going pumpkin crazy!I of course ordered Liam some Halloween pajamas, which will also be acceptable to wear come Monday! I love this pair, which are totally gender neutral!

Jessi posted about this Frye booties, and I just can't get them out of my head! I never thought I would jump on the ankle bootie trend, but I am seriously considering these. That big price tag is holding me back for right now. I love Frye boots and would be more than happy to add another pair to my closet!
-FOUR-
I think I have decided on Liam's Halloween costume... My little Liamasaurus will be a dinosaur!!! There are plenty of designs on Pinterest, but this one is my favorite. I will probably follow her tutorial but add my own little flair to it! Can't wait to purchase some fabric and get started on this!

Stitch Fix #1
First off, this isn't a sponsored post; I'm just really excited about Stitch Fix! It's pretty magical. "Oh hey, let me just pin this really cute outfit that I wish could appear in my closet soon!" Oh wait, that can really happen? Yep, I literally pinned this sweater shortly before my stitch fix shipped and it was in my box! I didn't realize how much your stylist will consider your Pinterest board, so I will definitely be pinning plenty more outfits before my next fix arrives!
I have been interested in Stitch Fix for awhile, but I only recently pulled the trigger and finally signed up! Since having Liam, I rarely shop for myself; therefore, my wardrobe has suffered a bit. Something about wrangling a toddler into a dressing room just isn't that appealing (especially when he's constantly peeking under the doors at the other women). Plus, I tend to have sever buyers remorse, so I am not one to make quick decisions. Stitch Fix is perfect for me! I joined with the thought of getting a shipment once a month and just keeping my favorite item from each fix. I'm considering it my little monthly splurge!
Raglan Striped Knit Shirt: perfect fit, hated the style.
I've heard that each fix only gets better & better as your stylist learns your taste. I'm hoping for some fall staples in my next fix! If you want to try it out for yourself, do a girl a favor and use my referral link! I will thank you for days!

Here's what I received in my 1st fix. Please note, I hate taking pictures of only myself...and then modeling clothes, ugh! So forgive how unnatural I look in all of the photos!
Contrast Pocket Striped Knit Tank: liked it.
Raglan Striped Knit Shirt: perfect fit, hated the style.
Scoop Back Hi-Lo Knit Shirt: it was okay.
French Terry Asymmetrical Zip Cardigan: LOVED & KEPT!
Distressed Boyfriend Jean: hated them.

Ridin' Solo
On our agenda for the two days was a hike, the zoo, the children's museum, smoothie dates, & plenty of time just running around outside! This was by far Liam & my best solo days together; however, there were plenty of "daddy come home"s throughout the days (from both of us)!

The Struggle is Real

Friday, August 22, 2014
Oh hey, Friday
Conor has been out of town for two days, so now that he is home, this Friday is just a bit sweeter! We have an awesome 6 mile hike planned this weekend that I am really looking forward to! Here's my weekly five; thanks to the two beautiful hosts Karli & Amy!
-TWO-
My other favorite purchase this week was this pair of TOMS for Liam! They are currently have a 25% off back to school sale; thanks to Cat for sharing this deal! Apparently my blog reading list is fueling my shopping habit, oops!
-THREE-
This chicken recipe is made with a boursin sauce and is to die for! It is super easy, so you all should make it ASAP!
-FOUR-
How adorable are these ghost cookies?! You simply use a tulip cookie cutter which I just happen to have leftover from Easter! I will hold off until October to actually make them, but I'm excited nonetheless. Maybe I will perfect my frosting recipe in the meantime!
-FIVE-
We are seriously obsessed with Little Blue Truck in the Keenan house, so when I spotted this Fall sticker book
I knew Liam would love it. Maybe a first day of Fall surprise?! Also, if you haven't already pre-ordered Little Blue Truck's Christmas
, then you should ASAP! I got an email that it will be shipping soon, and I cannot wait! First official Christmas present has been purchased!

After hearing (thanks to Katie) that J.Crew brought back this coveted vest from last winter, I made an immediate purchase! I can't wait for it to arrive and some cooler weather as well!My other favorite purchase this week was this pair of TOMS for Liam!
