Henry Fashion Obsession - LEGGINGS!

I am having lots of fun dressing my little guy. Right now, since he is only 4 months old, I tend to stick to more comfortable things for him to wear, although I can't wait to get him in some skinny jeans.

One of my very favorite staples in his little wardrobe are basic leggings.

  

 I love them because...

1.They are comfy.

2.They are generally inexpensive.

3.They come in every color and pattern you can imagine.

4.You can get gender neutral colors and patterns so

they are perfect hand me downs.

5.They can be worn longer because they are cute

baggy and tighter, as well as longer rolled up or shorter "cropped".

I am always on the hunt for new leggings for Henry. Here are some on my "wish list" for future buying.

(Ok, these ones are no longer on my wish list because

I just bought them and they are on the way. I can't wait

to post some pics of Henry modeling them soon!)

Check out "The Little Spoons" shop on etsy for these and more.

While we are visiting Etsy...

Amazing antler patterned leggings!

Find them at "carlymegan" shop.

Then there are plaids...

"Lillabarn" shop (on Etsy also) not only has LOTS

of cute handmade leggings, but also adorable

onesies, tees, and baby bandanas!

Just go to Etsy, search for "baby leggings" and you will find TONS of amazing leggings for kiddos.

Moving on to some new shops found thanks to Pinterest!

  

Love these from "miniandmaximus.com.

Oh, also these please because sharks are great.

I just discovered "The Pippa and Ike Show.com", which is a great children's clothing site!

These are on sale.

You know how I love stripes!

*Hey Mom, Henry needs these, buy them here.*

For the best deals on comfy leggings and other comfy children's clothing, I have been loving "Cotton On"

I am loving these color block leggings, find them

and lots more colors and styles only 2 for $15!

For basics, I got to "American Apparel".

These are only $12 and they come in various colors!

I have found so many, I may have to do a PART 2 soon!

Lately, it's been so hot in our house that Henry has ditched clothes, so I have no new pics of him in his favorite leggings. However, I will leave you with this pic of him mastering his perfect "duck face".

Enjoy shopping, and if you come across any other great finds. Keep me posted!

Ten Movies You Need To Rewatch This Summer

Danielle and I realized we haven't done a post together yet and what better way than to talk about one of our favorite past times: movies!!

Here is a list of movies (in no particular order) we think you need to watch this summer. If you don't, that's your fault. We have refined taste.

First Wives Club starring Bette Midler, Goldie Hawn, and Diane Keaton. All you need to know is "I beat Meryl!".

Pretty in Pink starring Molly Ringwald, Jon Cryer and Andrew McCarthy

Breakfast Club starring Molly Ringwald, Judd Nelson, Ally Sheedy, Emilio Estevez, and Anthony Michael Hall. Yes, Molly Ringwald can be, and should be on every list twice.

Pretty Woman starring Julia Roberts and Richard Gere. 

Meatballs starring Bill F*CKING Murray, Harvey Atkin and Kate Lynch

Clueless starring Alicia Silverstone, Paul Rudd, Stacey Dash, and Brittany Murphy. As if.

Purple Rain starring Prince...that's all that matters.

Airheads starring Brendan Fraser with long hair, Steve Buscemi with long hair, and Adam Sandler.

Mannequin starring Andrew McCarthy and Kim Cattrall

Wayne's World 1&2 starring Mike Myers and Dana Carvey. We can post two movies at once because it's our blog and we do what we want. Party on.

NKOTB Concert - Obsessed For Life.

If you were a young girl in the 90's, you probably were obsessed with

New Kids on The Block. Danielle and I were no exception.

We had the cassettes, watched the videos, had the dolls, pins, etc.

My dream was to randomly run into Jon somewhere and for him

to fall in love with me. I thought I had a chance with him, because

we were both shy, even though he was 20 years old and I was 10.

Danielle's love was for Jordan (us sister's loved those Knight brothers).

The best Easter ever was when the Easter Bunny left Danielle and I

matching NKOTB tee shirts in our baskets!

(Later that day, Danielle fell face first in mud and ruined her shirt.)

Although we had everything NKOTB related when we were young,

we never got to go to an actual NKOTB concert.

Then a few years ago, the good Lord answered my 10 year old prayers

and the group reunited! Little did Danielle and I know, the obsession

would be rekindled only way worse than before!

We got tickets as a gift for the reunion tour.

We drove a couple hours to Cleveland with the intention to

leave feeling nostalgic and have some laughs.

Let me tell you, once they took the stage, it was like a wave

came over us and we were kids again! We were screaming

like little girls, dancing for 2 straight hours, and singing every word!

It was over and we felt sad the night ended.

We immediately got tickets to the next nearest concert.

Since then we have seen them 5 times.

The very best night was when we were given backstage passes,

by a random story which I won't bore you with, and we got to

meet DONNIE WAHLBERG! We talk about this every chance we get.

We were totally not cool when this took place.

Loss of words, too awkward to stand up for the photo,

and I caught myself reaching my hand up to hold his. So embarrassing!

We were showing off our NKOTB tattoos which we got

after our 1st concert which are cassette tapes that say "Hangin' Tough".

Tuesday night we went to our 5th NKOTB concert with 3

of our other friends who are just as obsessed.

Once again, it was a fun time that made us all feel young again.

If you have yet to learn much about this reunion, here are a few things to know:

1. They still look super hot.

2. They still do choreographed dancing.

3. They have 2 new albums which we LOVE.

4. They perform all the old hits (and a few new ones).

5. They still look SUPER hot.

Here are some photos from the Pittsburgh concert (taken from WPXI.com).

*We were too far away to take good pics this time*

My man Jon sang a little solo, I was so proud.

Danielle LITERALLY burst into tears when Jordan

sang part of a Prince song ("Kiss") as he exposed some abs.

Ok, so I have gone on gushing for long enough...

let me leave you with this advice, if you were a fan back in the day,

GO SEE THEM!

You will have a blast and I think you will be impressed with

how they can still do what they do.

Here is the music video to the newest single:

(Hubba, hubba.)

Don't ever be ashamed of things (or guys) you love.

Have any of you went to the reunion concerts?
