1. My first seven quick takes of the year! so apologies for a dozen photos of this outfit that was clearly not taken recently. It's from the summer when I sported my Marian bandanna and flashed my nice summer tan.
2. I am still *high* from the seek conference that I attended virtually. I was late finding out that I could have gotten a day pass or an evening pass to the event. I did not have anybody to watch the children. My eldest was getting recognized along with the other altar servers for their service so we already committed to going to Mass as a family.
Talks I have seen. Some I watched live on livestream during the conference. A couple I watched this week.
-Jennifer Fulwiler - atheism to Catholicism and her big keynote address about loving-life first and incorporating the blue flame
-Fr. Mike - pray the Mass like never before
-Leah Darrow - keynote opening night
-Sister Miriam James
-Scott Hahn
-Dr. Edward Sri
-Chris Stefanick - Joy of Christians
-Jason Evert
-Paul J. Kim - Catholic Millenial's guide to Adulting
- Sarah Swafford

why i love summer
Girls' rompers, exact ones
Isabel's sandals, c/o FP
Lucy's saltwater sandals, via eBay
1. the sun, long days spent outside
I love sunny days! Sunny days lift up my mood. There's still daylight around 930p in June/July and I love that.
2. Kids are out of school
No rush to get out of the house.
No rush to go to bed (hello sunset at 9:45p).
My extended family visits us.
3. the beach
Sun, sand and water. That's my type of vacation!
When I think of summer, I think of the beach. Time to enjoy, relax, head to the lake/gulf/ocean (depending on vacation days we can get).

st. paddy's parade
What a gorgeous day for a parade! I have never been to any parades downtown. I have never watched an Indy 500 parade... no veterans day parade... no st. patrick's day parade... nada for this homebuddy.
So to march on a parade -- that's something to remember!
I was stressed out just thinking of pushing a stroller and carrying a baby and "chaperoning". Will I ever be able to contain Sebastian? He's at the this stage of wanting his independence. Will he run away from me while Lucy is fussing?
The toddler tantrum on the way to the assembly was something I'd like to forget... He stripped off his clothes before we left the house. The only thing green on him are his socks. He did not want to sit in the stroller once we parked. He did not want his hoodie or blanket. It was a little chilly in the shade.
Thankfully, Bastian's guardian angel and St. Patrick interceded for us. Bastian cooperated once we joined the group. He stayed in the stroller! I did not drop the baby. Lucy did not fuss or have a poopie explosion. I even fed her at the sidewalk {Kathryn will be proud!}
I wish I was able to capture Lucy waving at the crowd. It was very precious.
Happy St. Paddy's Day.
As for me, it's past 5p ~ I think I am going to open that wine bottle.

windy date night
pink links are affiliate links... it does not cost you anything extra if you use my links and purchase the items. in fact some are on-sale! :) happy shopping!
Hubs and I are such lovers of routines.. we always go to the same places for date night. I suggest a downtown place and he sometimes agree... but most of the time, he just does not want to battle the downtown traffic. We don't even live that far from downtown.
A couple of weeks ago was Devour Downtown. Again, i looked at other places hoping to try some new restaurants. But when we saw the awesome price at the Tapas place, we made our reservations there.... again lovers of routines. we always go to the Tapas place during devour downtown.
I have been wanting to wear this dress after wearing it for my birthday. My belly is still visible but so much smaller, eh? Lucky you, it's still available in selected sizes for only $12!
Well, let's backtrack. I did wear this dress already postpartum but it rained... I did not get my OOTD photos taken.
Then i wore this on FriDate, and it stormed again. weird. Let's call it the rainmaker dress.
it was a windy night. one would think we were in Chicago.
linking up with Sarah, Doranda, Morgan, Leanne, Elizabeth, Elena, Madeline, Danielle, Grace, and Brooke.
