Mommy's a Photographer!!

Ok, no I'm not. But I did get a new camera and I am so excited! Yesterday, I took the plunge and purchased this little beauty.

I am so ridiculously excited! I had to order it and it won't be in until Friday! Grrr! But, the place I ordered from was so great. They price matched Amazon's price, which is close to $100 cheaper than anywhere else, they gave me a 40% discount on an additional lens and they are giving me and a guest 4 free photography classes. Sweet deal, right?

I can't wait to start taking pictures of my Lainey bug. She is going to Babies R Us to take advantage for their $6.99 package on Tuesday for her 3 month photos but this way, I can get really decent pictures of her more often.

Since I sprung for a new camera, B decided to spring for a new surfboard. Perfect timing since we'll be heading to South Carolina for our anniversary in March (4 years!!!!) and Costa Rica this summer. And hopefully New York in fall...just sayin'. 

He's out surfing right now...and hopefully with my new camera I'll be able to get some good pics of him as well!

Hope you all have a great Monday!

Woe is me...

So for my "you're going to be a mommy" present from my own mommy, I got a fancy Cannon camera...that I have no idea how to use.

I have taken over a hundred photos of my weekend and come up with great posts to include the pics with.

But I have no idea how to get those photos onto my computer. My little scan card thingy is not showing up on my computer and I am sad. Guess I have to go get a cord...

I did do a little shopping for my California trip today. While packing I realized...not much fits. And sucking in is just not an option anymore. So, I ran out to Target and picked up a few things. Since I'm leaving in the morning, most everything is packed but here are a few of the items I could find online.

I actually love this shirt! It's so soft and was like $8.

This top will be great in Cali because I heard it's a little chilly there right now.

Now, prepare yourself for what's next....

Don't hate. You know you love 'em! Haha, that's right...A little over four months and I'm already sporting the maternity pants. And that my friends is what they call comfort.

Girl Crush & Lucky or Just Mean?

It's been a busy couple of days! After work on Wednesday I went to get my nails done and the "spa" that I go to is pretty nice. It's not actually a spa, it's just a really nice nail salon. While I was there, this group of women came in and we (yes, that includes me, how friendly am I?!) started talking about celebrities we liked, mostly female. My two celebrity crushes? 
Amy Adams from Enchanted! Yes, I know she's in more than that, and call me crazy if you want, but I love that movie! She's so stinkin' cute!

And Isla Fischer! Even though I could not have been more disappointed in Confessions of a Shopaholic, I love her! Seriously, isn't she the cutest thing ever!? Apparently I have a thing for redheads! Haha! My Grams has reddish hair and I've always wanted red hair, maybe that's where it stems from. Plus, I wouldn't being as tiny as Isla...

Who is your girl crush?

Yesterday I hit the road to come over to Mississippi to see my honey. I hit up the drive as I often do whenever I'm on the road. There is something has been happening to way too frequently: I constantly get extra food! For instance, yesterday I went to Jack in the Box -- I love their chicken box -- I ordered a chicken box and a larger sprite. I get to the window, pay my $3 and pull away. I never look in the bag, ever. So, as I get on the road, I go to pull out my chicken box, and what do I find? A chicken box and piece of cheesecake! Hello, torture. Last time I went to J&B, I ordered the same thing, plus regular fries and I got what I ordered plus two burgers! However, I love the kids meals from Wendy's and last time I went there, I only got 3 nuggets instead of four! This is so not good luck for me because seriously, free cheesecake while I'm in the process of trying to look like Isla Fisher. This is just mean, right? 

Finally, my wonderful husband bought me a new, small, portable camera to carry around so that I can post more photos on my blog! Thank him, I did! So, that means, more pictures for all you ladies to see! My other, absolutely wonderful, camera is just so big, I can't take it everywhere! So, I'm off to get some work done and enjoy the weekend!

Enjoy the weekend, lovely ladies!

XOXO,

Stevy
