My new favorite LBD

Oh 

It has been a crazy last couple of weeks between my traveling, Greg's traveling, Bear getting sick and turning 6 months we have been going non stop. 

I meant to post about my new LBD discovery weeks ago, but I just kept forgetting :(. I was going to NY for work and knew I needed a good LBD (little black dress for those of you who don't know :)) . I needed one that can be comfortable walking all over Manhattan in and be suitable for a nicer dinner that evening.

My mom and I found my new favorite dress at Neimans. I have a few go to dress designers that always fit me well and Theory is at the top of my list in pretty much any category not just dresses. We found this adorable fit and flare with a great flounce skirt sitting on the rack. It is ponte so a perfect fabric to wear any season. Theory typically runs small in my opinion but I actually sized down in this dress. Here are a few pics of the dress: 

Here it is just by itself. I paired it with some flat TB camo flats, which I apparently forgot to take a picture of :(. I also added a cute black jacket from H&M with it during the day:

The dress was perfect it was super comfortable, didn't wrinkle, and the perfect combination if flirty and sophisticated! It's a dress that you can easily wear day to night!!!

On another note Bear turned 6 months this past week and he had a heck of a week. He was ill, had a rash, and has his two bottom teeth coming in! Here is a cute pic of our little man :

Oh and as you can see from the picture he is up on all fours!!! Just scooting backwards for now...He is just growing up soo fast! 

I loved the verse in my daily devotional tonight, so I wanted to share it:

Praise be to The Lord,to God our Savior, who daily bears our burdens. Psalm 68:19

Have a good week!

Casa de Kirian

It's official we are homeowners again in Dallas!!! We are so excited to be back in the neighborhood where we first met almost 7 years ago! We are thrilled to be in the M streets although the commute isn't as easy as it was in the burbs we are excited to be closer to our family and friends in addition to being able to walk places!!! Although we closed on our house today we don't get to move in until the first week in November! We have started our countdown to move in. We are so grateful that we are able to stay with my mom until we can move in. Hayes got to see the house on Saturday and really liked his future room! After lots of moves in the past year we are excited to get settled!

Watch out Pinterest here I come... Can't wait to decorate our new home! Here is a picture of our new casa:

Happy Monday!

Back to Reality!

Wow, we had a great vacation and it was so nice to have a day off yesterday to do laundry, grocery store, and decompress!

We loved Rosemary Beach... I highly recommend it if you have not been there before.It is a great community and the best part is you can walk everywhere!  Bear loved every minute of vacation. He loved spending time with his cousin Coop. It was great for me to spend time with him since I used to be with him 24/7 until 4 weeks ago. We had lots of great family time! He is growing so fast, it amazes me how much they change daily. He is scooting backwards, sitting up by himself, and starting to use a sippy cup! My favorite memory of our trip is dunking Bear in the water. We have ourselves a little water baby. He just wanted to be in the water at all times. Greg and I loved watching him just giggle in the pool:)! 

Since I've been back at work my workout schedule is hard to maintain so I've been doing Paleo and love it. However, this past week I think I consumed carbs and alcohol every day.. 😳😁🙈! So today we are back on track. I definitely feel so much better on Paleo. 

Hope everyone had a great Labor Day! Cheers to a four day crazy work week! 

Here are a few pics from the vaca:

I love this picture! Bear loves his daddy!

Date night- I got this dress right before we left at Neimans and I love it! It's Tibi and was 40% off :)!!
