Paper???

So this next month as far as birthdays and anniversaries go is going to be a bit hectic. Therefore, I'm patting myself on the back for starting early :).  However, I'm struggling with the first anniversary gift for my husband. Paper, I mean what on earth do you get for a guy for the paper anniversary.  I feel like this is so easy for the guy to purchase, I love monograms. In my eyes, a girl can never have too much stationary :). Greg keeps having to tell me that Bear doesn't need his own monogrammed stationary yet, but I totally disagree :).

Now, before you judge me on one idea, I need you to read why I'm thinking this idea. So, Greg has been wanting a concealed handgun license for awhile. I figured hey that's paper and something he has been wanting, so why not. But, then again I start thinking, wow is this too redneck for a first anniversary gift??? HELP!  Our other option we have been talking about is just getting Rex more dog training. He is not adapting as well as I had hoped, although he gets better daily. One of my girlfriend's Melissa, said it best when she said that Rex is my Berkin Bag. SO TRUE!! He has had a couple of very expensive surgeries and more than one training class, which I may say are not cheap! But he is so worth it as long as he can learn to get along with Bear!

So, do you have any other ideas for a first anniversary gift for the hubby I'm struggling! Our anniversary will be here before I know it, as it's 4-28.

Now, being a new mom, it is so hard to get up and get yourself ready. However, I have been trying very hard to get up and put on some makeup and an outfit that does not consist of sweats. I did fail yesterday, but today is a new day. After being jolted out of the shower by Bear's crying, it may have taken me a good two hours later to throw my hair and put on a tad bit of makeup along with an outfit.

So, here is my outfit option for the day. I'm sporting snakeskin leggings (yep, you got it.. I maybe a new mom who is still in maternity clothes, but doesn't mean I can't rock some snakeskin leggings :). I've paired my leggings with a black BCBG tunic that I love. I've been struggling with wearing some of my old tops because I don't want them to stretch out but this one is already a little baggy! I know many of you have been to Target probably in the past week if not 24 hours, so I will tell you I'm loving and living in their $8 boyfriend tees. They have a great color palate and for me right now it's a perfect cheap tee that I can breastfeed in!

It's really hard to see the leggings in this pic, it's because we don't have a good full length mirror in this house and the lighting is bad! I'm hoping you can't tell that I'm sporting the belly bandit, but shoot I will try anything to get my body back into shape as soon as possible! Plus, Kourtney Kardishian swears it by it, then it must work, right?? :)



And of course here is such a cute pic of Bear this am during tummy time and story time:
