Mama and Mini Style

Happy Valentine's evening to you friends! We've been lounging around at home most of the day though we did squeeze in a trip to Target (see Instagram for the gorgeous little dress I found for Scarlet). The boys didn't have school today so we began our day with warm cinnamon rolls and coffee for me and the dad. I've been taking a little longer to clear out the cobwebs as miss Scarlet is now waking up twice at night since she became mobile. You know how that goes ... So for the time being, I'm going with it and drinking an extra cup of coffee to get through the grogginess. She is so big and important now, crawling like an Olympian, up stairs too mind you, and pulling up to stand like it's no big deal. She's loving life! So I can imagine how all this new-found energy and sense of adventure would interrupt a night's sleep.

We also cut out hearts and painted them with watercolors and Elliot created a dreamy little piece called power ranger shark. It's currently accompanying our framed photos on the picture ledge. I'm sort of crazy about watercolor right now. I've always stuck with oils in the past but after sitting down to it a few times over the past couple of weeks, I can absolutely see why some of my favorite new artists use watercolor as their go-to medium. So beautiful. 

So today I wore my husband's hoodie and Scarlet wore a butterfly crown, all in celebration of St Valentine. :)
 {me: sweatshirt - Gap (men's), jeans - Citizens of Humanity from Anthropologie, boots - H&M
Scarlet: shirt - Carters (friend Mackie's), shorts - Zara, tights - Children's Place (cousin Adorlee's), homemade tinsel crown}

  1. Happy to see you do dress down from time to time, however, you still manage to pull off a sweatshirt with far more style than I can!
