Friday Finds…
I have had a bit of a crap week on the mommy front this week. Hudson has entered his 3’s with quite a bang. People have always talked about the terrible two’s but no one ever mentions the three’s. Oh boy. Now that he can talk more it’s a whole lot of sass and for some reason he is now super jealous of Asher when he was totally fine with him before. Perhaps it’s because Asher is mobile now? I don’t know. Any advice is welcomed, because I spent most of my day asking him if his ears are broken. He always answers back, “No momma my ears feel good.” I guess my sarcasm is lost on him. 😉
Here is what caught my eye this week:
-Daydreaming that I can have 5 mins in this beautiful entry way to just sit on one of those chairs and flip through a stack of magazines that are currently sitting on my nightstand unopened.
-What a stunning bathing suit. I’m in love. I think it’s a definite must buy and let’s add a winter get away to the mix as well so we can test it out in the sun. Ah a girl can dream.
-How adorable is this spotty clutch? Love the canvas and leather mix and the little tassel.
-I have been wearing UGGS on a daily basis these past couple of weeks and I’m itching to get my naked ankles out on display again. I can’t wait to wear these babies.
-I saw this ring in a tumblr photo months ago and I could never find a source for it until this week. So happy to have found it and then I saw the price tag! So, it’s not happening anytime soon, but at least I know where it is whenever the time comes.

ON THE BLOG
My living room is one of the rooms that evolved drastically from when we first moved one. Originally I painted the walls chocolate brown and did accents of white, blue and orange. That lasted maybe 2 years.
Our dining room sat empty for months. Okay maybe it was empty for just a handful of weeks and then we couldn’t take it anymore and put in a folding table and plastic outdoor chairs, but in my mind that was still empty.
On the main floor of our house we have a Florida room. Being that it’s a Florida room it is a considered a 3 season room, because there is no heat in the room. The previous owners used it as an indoor patio with outdoor furniture and it looked like this when we moved in.
Hang in there! I agree that 2s are cake and 3s are when the trouble starts! I think the best cure for rivalry is one on one time and lots of hugs.
Just remember parenting consists of phases. Hudson may be difficult for awhile, and then all of a sudden, he’ll be back to being agreeable & loving. At least that was my experience. Just try to be as patient as possible (so hard) and keep in the back of your head, “this too shall pass.” And brace yourself for the long preschool journey, I thought four was the hardest year ever.
The 3’s are definitely harder…I found giving them a “choice” between two things (i.e. play with playdoh or read a book) sometimes helps them feel like they are in control which I think helps with the jealousy a bit. Good luck:)
Three was worse that 2 and 4 was MISERABLE. I hate 4 year olds. Five was slightly better and 6 and 7 have been good. Hang in there! Don’t give in!
I agree 2s were a breeze…… 3s were tougher.
