Pause: Body Acceptance/Self Love

As we head into the warm weather, conversations in the blogisphere have turned toward cookouts, roadtrips and all things summer. We cant wait for the weather to change so that we can shed the extra layers of clothing and bask in the sunshine for a few months. We also are forced to come face to face with our bodies. Summer heat makes it really hard to hide what we consider flaws.

After having 2 children I must say my self image wavers at times. When the sun begins to beat down and my only choice is to die from heat stroke because I dont want someone to notice my back/belly fat or just let it all hang out it can be a real head trip.

I may have mentioned this before but it cant hurt to repeat it: I LOVE MRS. ROPERS WARDROBE!!!! She had the best collection of house coats on the planet in my opinion.

I honestly dont remember an episode of Threes Company where she wasnt wearing one. If she needed to leave the house in a jiffy (Which she never did except to go upstairs to see Jack, Chrissy and Janet) all she would need was a belt, some big sunglasses and a cute bag and she was dressed for almost any occasion.

Im planning on wearing housecoats til I die!!!

Love the ruffle detail :)

Theres nothing like getting the chance to hang out with my Hubby without the kiddos. As much as we enjoy our nutty children, its always nice to have a moment or two that can be spent together without having to stop every 5 seconds to wipe a nose, clean a spill, break up an argument ect.

This weekend we got the chance to do just that.We dropped the little people off with my inlaws and spent a few hours just doing the normal stuff that couples do when theyre free: Eat, Catch a Movie and Hang Out in Target :)

Happy May!
