Friday's Five - Vacation Is Here

It's Friday and as you are reading this, I am either up at 3am getting ready to head to the airport or in the throws of traveling with two toddlers. Wish us luck. I can't wait to share my travels with you all and a tips/guide to traveling with toddlers.

I am linking up with Karli and April.

One. I FINALLY bought a dress for the wedding at the end of this month. I had every intention on renting one, but I waited until last weekend to make the purchase (I was trying to find better coupon codes). The Kate Spade dress was still there in my size, but my back up size was gone. No worries, I would just settle on my size and the one below just in case. And then on Instagram, a shop that I follow and was going to buy the beautiful blue backless dress from was having a sale and had new dresses in. I found two dresses that were very Spring like and that I loved. Plus the price with the 25% discount they were offering was...$59. A steal and less than my Rent the Runway dress with discount and shipping ($80). Here is the beauty that I will be wearing and arrived at my doorstep on Wednesday (it's beautiful in person!).

And I can wear my blush heels from Nathalie's wedding with it. I can't wait to wear this beauty. What do you think?

Two. I received a makeup VoxBox from Influenster and it was filled with three lipsticks from The Amuse Bouche Collection. Whenever we have an event, date night or girls night, I get the chance to pretty myself up with one of these lipsticks. So far my favorite is beetroot, but pepper is a close second.

Three. Stefanie over at Lexie Loo, Lily, Liam and Dylan Too, recommended these bibs for toddlers who are messy eaters. I seriously can't wait to buy them since our girls are constantly staining their clothes (stain stick is a staple in our house) with food. She says you can use them for painting and craft projects too. Sign me up! And 2 for $10 is a steal. I can't wait for mine to arrive.

Four. I have a bunch of guest posts coming your way in the next two weeks. Everything from toddler activities to a yummy cocktail recipe. You will definitely want to check out all of these amazing ladies. On Monday, I will be doing a guest post over at Work it Mommy where I bare my soul. I will be talking about my birth trauma, how it affected me and ways of dealing with it. Please check it out.

Five. Missed my posts this week? Catch up below.

Tuesday - 10 on Tuesday - 10 Things I Learned from Parenting Twins (this is a good one and not to be missed!)

I hope you all have a good weekend and next two weeks. I hope to comment back on all of your comments. It just may take an extra day or two!

    1. Oh our girls will eat naked a lot this summer too. And outside so it is easier clean up.
