lists are my bffs.

5. cheerleading has taken over our lives. the first game is tomorrow. i'm already over it. but it makes my girl happy and she legitimately ROCKS at it. so obviously i have my red and white all picked out for tomorrow and will continue to do jumps on the trampoline with her to get our hurkey's just right. duh.

4. got a little slice of manhattan today, as my sister has come into town for a long weekend. i met up with her, my mom, and my ninner for lunch today and it can be summed up in the following:

that little gem i'm reading is my ninner's musings on being without electricity for 12 days during an ice storm a few years back. and i quote 'on day 12, it ceased to be funny anymore.' she's a gem, my ninner. funniest thing i've read in a heckuva long time.

 

3. i cut three inches off my hair this week. all by myself. and now the great debate of '13 will be whether or not to leave it alone or go all britney spears with it.

(jk. jk. maybe more mandy moore circa 1999 than britney, but you see my point, no?)

2. applesauce muffins. if you don't have some - get some. they'll change your life. you can thank me later.

1. tomorrow is one of the greatest days of the year.

when the smoke clears

you will have your worst fear 

click... clack...

you just got hit by a RAZORBACK!!! 

see you on the HILL, suckers.

it's friday. duh.

FIVE

    because they frown upon me wearing hats to work. and it was humid. and rainy. on days like such, my hair tends to look like monica's in that episode of friend's where they're at ross' conference and she gets all crazy about ping pong. and that's how i became addicted to headwraps.

FOUR
     i had a sleepover wednesday night. with the most adorbs seven year old in the world. and darby.  we watched hotel transylvania for the second time that day. and drank chocolate milk. because it's pretty much the only kind of milk i buy. and she didn't kick me in her sleep. we concluded she's still my favorite cuddle buddy.

  dear pinterest, thanks for backing me up today when i needed to shut people up make people aware that overalls are back on-trend. so, so, so much crap given to me today about said attire. however, i will share that the second i walked in the door, d.might looks at me and says 'hey - i like your overalls! are those your silver's from high school?!'  uh yeah, he's awesome. and he was sincere. and genuine. and and now i want to wear them everyday. 

TWO
     i let my tomatoes spoil and didn't get around to making the salsa i intended to this week. so now i have tons of tortilla chips and no salsa in sight. this will be remedied asap.

ONE
      banana sno cone. in the biggest cup they had. after a hot and humid two hour cheer practice/training run. barefoot in the parking lot of my hometown. with my two littles running circles around me with their own birthday cake and red raspberry kiddie cups. b l i s s.

first timer. right here.

all the bloggers are doing it. you should too.

FIVE

i've gone five whole days without wearing heels. i've had a few people legitimately ask if i was sick. somedays the tom-boy in me just takes over and it's nothing but ripped jeans and t-shirts and flip flops and baseball caps for a week. and this week i was perfectly content to let her hang around.

FOUR

after a two-year hiatus from extracurricular activities, my sweet little tutu has signed up for cheerleading this fall. and two practices into it - it. is. intense. !!! there will be quite a bit of discipline and responsibility for her, but judging by the smile on her face - she's totes got this. she's also got her mama's rhythm, so that's a WIN.

THREE

i am waiting anxiously for my new erin condren planner to come to my doorstep! i have tried and tried to keep all of our schedules and events organized in my phone, but who am i kidding. if i don't actually write it down, it ain't gettin' done. i am seriously on pins. and. needles. it's like the ultimate-cracked-out-back-to-school supply for grown ups. p u m p e d.

TWO

i now officially have a two-year-old. and he is pure joy, i tell you. he's loud and breaks stuff and is always looking to get dirty and is never still for longer than .35 seconds. but that boy loves his momma incredibly so. and he can charm his way out of almost everything he gets himself into.

ONE

this weekend's only mission is to have as many banana sno-cone's as possible. let the games begin.
