Sleepless in Seattle

 Off to Seattle to with our little guy to visit friends.
 First stop...Pike Place Market
 We ate our way through Pike Place Market.  Here are few of our favorite places.
 Le Panier had amazing pastries to satisfy that sweet tooth. 
Michou Deli for a quick delicious sandwich and pasta salad.
 Piroshky, Piroshky for sweet or savory Russian pastries.
 The first Starbucks is located in Pike Place Market, but no need to wait in the crazy long line.  There is a Starbucks on every corner of Seattle.
Westward - Beautiful ambiance and incredible oysters.  Perfect for a mid day snack.

We fell in LOVE with Seattle and look forward to many more trips up there to visit our dear friends.
Other favorite spots we ate at were -

Happy National Coffee Day

National Coffee Day is every day at our house.  
I honestly can't get through the day without at least two cups a day.  I know it's a bad habit, but life with two boys calls for two cups of coffee.

Terrible Twos vs. Terrific Twos






My little man, turned two this Sunday.  I can't believe two years ago I became a mom to this amazing little boy.  Now I am a mom of two little guys.  Colson had a great birthday filled with so much love.  We started off with a day at Disneyland on Friday and then cake on Sunday with family. 
The past week I have definitely started seeing the signs of the Terrible Twos.  One second I feel like I'm a parent of a terrible 2-year old and in the next second I'm the parent of a terrific 2-year old.  There are so many emotions throughout the day with Colson, but it's really how I react that helps him through his emotions.  My patience is tested everyday.  When I am patient and talk to Colson about his emotions that is when his reactions are positive.  We are both learning through this process and I look forward to every lesson.

White After Labor Day






I never follow fashion rules, especially no white after Labor Day rule.  
I'm lusting after these white looks for fall.

Denim and Heels

 Mesh Top / H&M
Chanel Necklace / Vintage
Gold Bracelet / Acama LA
Black Leather Bracelet / Stella & Dot
Gold Arrow Ring / Stella & Dot
Rose Gold Rings / Wanderlust & Co
Clutch / Stella & Dot
 Denim / GUESS

It has been 11 weeks since Nixon was born and the weight is not falling off like it did with Colson.  This H&M mesh top and comfortable jeans from GUESS help to hide my post pregnancy belly, plus both are really comfortable.  This look is great with a pair of flats or throw a great pump for a night out with friends or the hubby.

Off to Toronto Film Festival

Look forward to sharing my favorite red carpet looks when I return...

...but before I leave, time for a blowout at the fabulous Drybar.  Drybar is one of my favorite places.  Talk about a treat for any mommy wanting to spoil herself and look beautiful.  All blow drys are only $40.  I usually get the Cosmo-Tai, loose curls/waves.
