Are you a good gifter? I am asking because I feel like every year I struggle to find the perfect gift for the adults in my family. Hence the reason why I rarely do gift guides on this blog. I promise you, the longer you know someone the harder it is to find a gift for them. Adults like what they like and that rarely changes. On the other hand, kids are easier to please in my book because as they grow every year their interests also change. That means you have a million toys to choose from.
It’s almost that time of the year! I cannot believe 2020 is literally around the corner. Honestly ever since I hit my 20s, years have been flying by. Anywho, maybe you have not received your first party invitation yet, but before you know it holiday party invitations will be flooding your inbox and you’ll be faced with the task of picking out a killer outfit for each event. Dressing up for your office holiday party is an opportunity to show your personality while maintaining professionalism. Plus size women might still have fewer options when it comes to shopping, but the perfect holiday outfit does exist! Yes, below is the proof.
Happy Tuesday loves! Hope you are having a great week. ours started with a little hiccup. Last night one of the boys and another boy at basketball headbutted each other while trying to get the ball. Well, let’s just say my boy ended up at the emergency room with the biggest wound on his head and blood gushing everywhere. The scariest thing ever! He is now doing better thank God.
A few days from now, the kids are heading back to school. This was probably one of the fastest summers ever! It seems like school just ended a week ago. This is an exciting time for the kids as they are looking forward to meeting their friends and rocking new stuff. I cannot wait to hear the kid’s stories about their new friends, class, and teachers.
Although I am not ready to say goodbye to summer just yet, It’s time to start thinking about back to school. My boys are growing up so fast that I can hardly keep up with their wardrobe. I swear all the pants that fit just two months ago have turned into ankle pants, and all of the long sleeves that were long in January are now quarter length at best. Thankfully, my oldest can pass his clothes to his brother, which saves me a lot of money. Phewww
