enJOY it

August

loving having a little walker in the house.

finding soft-soled baby shoes too cute to pass up.

getting plant stands out the door.

needing a haircut.

thinking big for 2015.

allowing myself to dream a bit.

eating so much avocado on toast.

prepping the family to head up north for a wedding this weekend.

considering a wardrobe remix in September.

using TimerCam as often as possible.

listening to Taylor on repeat. (#makersgonnamake)

revisiting my 10k a day fitbit goal.

connecting a TV antenna for football season!

embracing this next season.

feeling good.

    Ellerie is just precious. I have noticed in many of your pictures, she is looking straight at the camera, even when you aren’t – how do you accomplish that? 🙂 The big idea sounds thrilling!

    Are you open to being friends with blog readers on Fitbit? (You can of course say no.) You popped up on my list… I just got my Fitbit a few weeks ago and so far my only friends are my boss and my aunt!

    Taylor on repeat- me too. Which is strange because I don’t listen to pop ever. But this is just such a fun dance song!

    I’m currently in the middle of a remix challenge, and let me tell you, it’s awesome and challenging and really makes you appreciate what you have in your own closet.

    Oh man! That 30×30 wardrobe challenge looks legit. And it totally reminds me of the “capsule wardrobe” concept I found via Breanna Rose’s blog a few months back. Have you heard of it before? What’s your take? More here: http://www.un-fancy.com/capsule-wardrobe-101/what-is-a-capsule-wardrobe-anyway/

    I can’t WAIT to hear your new big idea!!! You and Ali Edwards are so inspirational to me! And please post your style remix – I should do the same with my closet. I am stuck in the mama wardrobe of yoga pants and tanks.

    hey Anna!
    Thanks for asking. I tend to be “friends” on fitbit with people that I know in real life or have an online relationship with (like email, etc). So the answer is, sort of! 🙂
    I hope you’re loving the fitbit!
