I am so glad Emry is getting into photography and I've convinced her that candid shots are much cooler anyway. Like this one............
Ahhh, how is it possible to love a boy so much?! On our drive home from church yesterday the girls were ganging up on me saying Ethan was my favorite. Since it's not in good taste to be honest about those things I tried to plead my case by telling them all the great things I do for them too. But truth be told they had pretty solid points. Guess I'll have to reign in the baby talk, the catering to him, stop myself from crying every time he says 'I love you Mom' which awesomely enough is always!, hanging on his every word and trying not to melt at just the sight of him.
The subject of this post is not Ethan, but it's easy to get sidetracked when I think of that sweet mug. So moving on to our other deals. Emry got 4 cute little summer shirts, clockwise from top L $1.40, $3, $2, $1.40.
Whaddaya know, here's that sweet boy again. I'll put his scrumptious face up any chance I get. All of these shirts were $1.40 each. I love that I found him 2 more button up shirts for church, it was getting to be slim pickings every Sunday. And by that I mean he had one shirt that was getting too small and then we lost it so for a few Sundays we got very creative.
Oh it's fun to have to have your own blog and ramble on and on about how much you love your kid. What? ........... everyone stopped reading?!?!
Fine, here's the grand total - $17.60
I am off to clean Ethan's room, organize his Lego's and make sure the kitchen is stocked with his favorite foods. Aaaaarghhh, somebody stop me!!!!!
You look great, mama!
ReplyDeleteYour kids are adorable, too!
you are an amazing thrifter!!!! love these finds :)
ReplyDeleteHe is a cutie for sure...and what good finds you happened upon.
ReplyDeleteI meant to mention this a few posts back but I love his haircut. Both of my boys went and got "summer cuts" which involved buzzing it all off.
They look so grown up when they do that...why is it?
I would not recommend all the books. He is in honors reading and all these books have a lexile level of 1000. Looking for reading list google battle of the books. Some of the books had very mature subjects.
ReplyDeleteYeah, yeah, yeah, Ethan, Ethan, Ethan. Hahahhahaha! He is a cute boy Marie. My son Reece is nothing like him, it seems. We'll see how they gel when you're here. The shirt is very cute, the pose, cute, the Emry is suuuuuper cute and the boy is cute, but we knew that already. :)
ReplyDeleteI got a pair of the cutest sandals for one dollar, about a month ago, at Savers and they just broke! Bummed. I put it on Instagram. What will I do? There are these sandals I am in love with on Zappos and they are 90 dollars. I can't do it. I saw some at Target for about 25 bucks, but when my others were a dollar? Nothing will ever seem cheap enough or good enough now. I guess I'll have to wear my flip flops until I find another sandal for under five dollars.
You better enjoy talking to baby talk to Ethan because I have a feeling one day he is going to come downstairs and he's not going to respond to the baby talk anymore...just saying, while I'm chuckling at the same time. You kill me Marie. You're the best mom. Lucky kids. Love you forever,

I'm sending your package hopefully soon for May. I'm waiting for one more thing to come in the mail. This month it's a book theme. That's all I"m going to say..... :)
Um hold up, I was just looking closer at Emry and she has nails???? Wow, fancy. What's the occasion? :)
ReplyDeleteNothing gets by you! Her and her friend decided to be ever so fancy and put on some press on nails over the weekend and let me tell you they were the best $3 she ever spent!!!! :)
Deletegreat deals!!! and they are so adorable!!!!
ReplyDeleteClick me for my BLOG!
Little boys have that special way of tugging at their mommas. Beautiful picture of you two. Great finds, as always! And I love the movie Second Hand Lions.
ReplyDeleteThose are awesome finds! I'm a huge fan of candid photos :)
ReplyDeleteHahaha! I've been accused of favoritism myself. But I'm quick to list off all of the nice things I do for all of my girls, and that usually hushes them up :) Love all of your deals!
ReplyDeleteWell hey Miss Thang! Look at you getting all sassy! :o) I just love your fun personality!
ReplyDeleteI guess I'll never have to answer the "Who do you like best?" question and I am SO THANKFUL for that because I'm pretty sure the honest answer would be Lexie. That's part of the reason we decided not to have any more kids. There is no way I could love the second one as much as I love her! ;o) Spoken like a true mother of one, right? ;o)
I want to develop a clothing line just so you and Emry can model it, haha. You gals make everything you wear look so easy/breezy/happy. LOVE the jungle top--but I'm a sucker for all things animal-print. And neon. If that was neon AND animal print? I'd be heading your way to raid your closet ;)
ReplyDeleteP.S.--Sorry I've fallen so behind on reading your blog! Time to read back through and catch up, I've missed your fabulous happy family/happy life posts!
Love your summer clothing finds!! You have such a gorgeous family!
ReplyDeleteyou crack. me. up!! :D girl, y'all hit the JACKPOT!! don't you just LOVE thrift stores??? (wait, you don't have to answer that question because from reading your blog for the past year i already know your love for it. hehehe! ;P)

wow--I wish they had these stores here. I would have loved it. I could buy all the shoes & bags I *dream* of!
ReplyDeleteIf you ever owned a second hand store, can you imagine what kind of finds you'd have privy to?
ReplyDeleteOooh! You should so write a post on how to do second hand store shopping ;) You seem to be so pro at it :D
ReplyDeletelove your pose! And great finds- yes i agree that you should really write a post on how to thrift shop!
ReplyDeleteNo favoritism!
ReplyDeleteWe would be the best thrifting buddies if we lived near each other!! Enjoy your weekend!
ReplyDeleteLove those clothes! You've just inspired me to visit our local Goodwill this weekend. I always, for some reason, get good finds on shorts!!
ReplyDeleteI just LOVE your Second Hand Lions posts! That should be your title for them from now on. Great bargains, Marie!
