Just a quick hello on Brooke’s 1/2 birthday. I am seriously considering baking a cake to celebrate this big day…. I feel like that is what a good mom would do.
It is 70 degrees and Billy got done with school at 2 so we decided to eat lunch together outside. Pasadena Chicken Salad that is the same size as my child’s head.
with a side of baby feet. Brooke is wearing her first pair of jeans ever.
It is Friday so that means it is time to party. Our definition of partying tonight = laundry and going to a very fancy restaurant (actually it is the opposite of fancy but it will be delicious).
The THREE winners of the PRO Compression giveaway are:
Ashley, Lindsay and Katie, EMAIL ME ASAP so I can get you your awesome socks!

I think a cake is ALWAYS a good idea!

I need a full pic of Miss. Brooke in those jeans. Too cute.
I’ve decided we’re supposed to be BFF’s for the following reasons:
– I’m in love with my Brooks Pure shoes ( recall me emailing you about them a few weeks back?)
– I just purchased the hot pink Brooks arm warmers that I saw on here and I’m pumped about.
– I went on my first trail run today and LOVED IT!! And then proceeded to sign up for a 4 part trail race series. Holla!
– And my favorite thing in the whole universe is Yogurtland, which I’ll be eating 5 lbs. of tomorrow.

Congrats to your winners! Giant salads are the best meals. (Hmm, now I want a salad for dinner…) And there’s nothing wrong with doing laundry on a Friday night; I think that’s what I’m going to be doing. :) Have a great day and enjoy the rest of Brooke’s 1/2 B-day!

Love Brooke’s jeans! My daughter lives in her “skinny” jeans. I love that I can put them on her with anything, so we own multiple pairs.

Every time I see Brooke I think “she is the cutest baby!” really though! Its fun that your birthday and her 1/2 birthday are nearly the same! Happy 6 months birthday, you should definitely make a cake!

Congrats to the sock winners! :)
I LOVE chubby baby feet and little toes. Gabe used to have these little Birkenstock-looking sandals (we probably got them at Target) that looked so adorable on him with his big ‘ol feet.
70 degrees = awesome! Tomorrow I’ll be in Phoenix for soccer and it’s supposed to be 74! I can’t wait!
Kathee
Brooke is so adorable!
I wish it was that warm in Utah.

Always half a cake on the half birthday. Always.
Tried my hand at stroller running today. Don’t know how you do it.
Mette Vork
When my babies turned 1/2 year, I made them Half a cake! (I of course froze the other half) I decorated it and didn’t put in a candle – that’s for “Real birthdays”. And Them my husband and I ate the whole thing! Best 1/2 birthday ever :-)
Kay
Mmm that salad looks delicious!
Baby jeans!! I love baby clothes so much!
