…Because it’s Monday, and we’re headed on a beach vacation tomorrow, so I have a million bajillion things to do. Mainly pack. I have a lot of packing to do.
First off, let’s start with last week on Wednesday, because it must be documented. We had a Mean Girls party at my aunt and uncle’s house. All the cousins are home from college this summer, so we had to have one last movie party before they leave again. It was Wednesday, so we wore pink. Duh. And funny story? We were so caught up in talking/ hanging out/ eating pizza that by the time we finally actually started to watch Mean Girls, Sam was D-O-N-E-Z-O (aka it was his bedtime, and boy does he let us know when his bedtime is!) so we watched liked 5 minutes of it ha! But I’ve seen that movie approximately 127 times anyway, so I wasn’t mad about it. I prefer the talking/ hanging out/ eating pizza anyway.
My brother is in town!!! He has been living in Hershey, Pennsylvania (yes, the home of chocolate) while getting his PhD in molecular and cell biology (I KNOW, HE’S REALLY SMART) and now that he is officially a Doctor (!!!) he is moving on to post-doc work, so my dad flew out and they road tripped cross-country back to California. We went over to visit and have a BBQ on Saturday and it was so great seeing him! We’re actually all going together to visit my other brother in SLO this week, and I am soooo excited! Then Jeremy is off to his new job in San Diego. PHEW. Can you keep up?! I’m exhausted just thinking about it. ;)
Sam loves his Uncle Jeremy. And also bubbles.
Chick-fil-A is always a good idea. And you know the best part is the sauce selection. I have perfected my sauce choices: Chick-fil-A sauce for the chicken sandwich, BBQ for the fries and Polynesian for the grilled chicken nuggets. Trust me on this.
New shoes. Sam likes.
Avocado tooooooast (with sea salt, red pepper flakes and tomatoes), take us out.
Hope you had a fun weekend, too!

That avocado toast just put my smoothie breakfast to shame! Sounds like a great weekend, and your lil man is adorable as ever. Where do you order all of his cute clothes from? (We just found out we are having a boy so I need to start shopping asap!…of course).

Ooh but smoothies are delicious, too! ;) I’m so excited for you to have a little boy!!!! They are seriously so fun! I get a lot of his clothes from thredup (I know, I talk about them alllll the time, for good reason!)- if you’ve never ordered from them go through my link for free $10 off your first order: http://www.thredup.com/r/R7VUFL … I also love the clothes at Baby Gap, H&M, Old Navy and Kohls! Love Carter’s, which they sell at Kohl’s, plus kohl’s always has awesome sales and money back and whatnot. Hope this helps! Shopping for and dressing boys is so so so much fun!

It helps so much!! I’m pretty clueless when it comes to dressing boys. On my way to Thredup… :) thank you!
Me browsing the site: okay, I will just look at this page and then I’m done. ..but what if there’s something really cute on the next page? okay just this one more….and so on.
bahahaha! Sounds exactly like me! It is sooooo addicting.
Aw what a fun weekend! That’s so cool that your brother’s a doctor, and I’m glad Sam loves him so much! Yay for fun weekends with family.
It was a really fun weekend! :) I hope yours was good, too!

Have fun with your family in SLO! It’s my happy place and I miss it so much! I go to Cal Poly :) It sounds like you’ve prob been there before but I have to tell you about some places that I just know you’ll die for, maybe you’ve already heard of it lol! I’m from NorCal too and Acai is just not a thing here which is a major shame because it’s heaven in a bowl. It’s a huge thing in SLO though so you absolutely have to check it out. It’s delicious, healthy, and the perfect thing to eat while looking out over the beach!! There’s several right in SLO and I can definitely vouch for Neighborhood Acai on Foothill Blvd, but the best of all Acai bars is at Avila Beach and it’s called Kravabowl. They’re literally the best thing ever. It’s like a smoothie of Acai and other berries topped with all sorts of yummy things like granola and coconut, local pollen, honey, and bananas. They’re delicious!! They also have Acai bowls at Sally Loo’s, but they’re definitely not as good as Kravabowl or Neighborhood – although the granola on top of the Sally Loo’s bowls is to die for. I’ve been craving an Acai bowl allllll summer! Have fun!
Oooh yay I LOVE acai bowls, and you’re right: there is a major lack of them in norcal!! Thanks for the suggestions! Will be trying out kravabowl for sure! :)

Sam’s hair is seriously the cutest!
Mean girls party?! That sounds awesome!
Haha thanks! And yes, a Mean Girls party just seemed like the right idea ;)

Sam’s bedhead tee is adorable and so perfect for him!
Haha! Didn’t even realize that! SO perfect! :)
