ice cream, baby shoes & books

All unrelated topics/ramblings consuming life lately..

Last night I met my dad for dinner at Clyde's (an institution here in the area).  It's so nice to catch up and spend time with him since most times I visit I have Ms Peanut in tow and my mom and I are usually headed shopping! In high school the father daughter dance was my favorite of the entire year so we try to get together for dinner or movies as often as time allows. So my dad and I both have the sweet tooth gene... I've never met a piece of chocolate I didn't like... Obviously we both got dessert. I had a brownie Sundae with ice cream that was amazing and after prying the waitress for information she confessed it was Hagen daz!!!! Most people would be disappointed that it wasn't house made or gourmet, I was elated because I knew that meant I could get my hands on it haha! Salted caramel truffle... Woop Woop!! It was amazing and if you have a sweet tooth get your hands on some ASAP!!

My little girl has an incredibly small foot-being a size 6 myself I'm not sure why I never anticipated this but I digress. Finding actual shoes in her size requires lots of printing out paper size charts, trying to get a wiggly toddler to "place her heel on the line" and obviously returns and exchanges. Most shoes that fit her feet are crib shoes with no real soles which would be a disaster seeing as though she walks runs everywhere.I found a few pairs she wore all winter and I just scooped up a few for spring summer

I ordered these and sadly they are too big:( 

so these are on the way and I will just have to hope her little tootsies are big enough for the cut out hearts next year

Toms finally made a pair smaller than a size 4! They are cute for spring and into early summer with jeans and a white tee(onesie) haha!

See Kai run has sort of turned into my go to in order to find her shoes. These fishermans are in transit and I think they will be a traditional staple with little bubbles all summer

I found this series totally by accident on amazon and they are fun, mindless reads cute and fast. Pick them up if you are in search of a new book... Bonus I think I paid around 3 bucks for the first two. 

I have a photographer coming today to meet Ms. Peanut (hopefully she won't be terrified when we actually take the pictures) and a tastefully simple (it's food) party to take her to after her bedtime this evening while hubs is in class! Wish me luck this mommy is going to need a serious cocktail soon:)
