Vroom, Vroom!

Ha- I cannot stop laughing at this picture of Dell Harper at a birthday party last weekend.  Little Will is the background is already checking out cute girls in convertibles! Her face is so serious, it just kills me.



I just love this picture outside the church after Dell Harper's baptism last Sunday. Also digging big-time?  The dress I wore.  I want to wear it every day.  Hubs happy-prized me with another of this style in a different print (normally he never notices what I wear, so this is high praise for a dress indeed).  I normally can't do wrap dresses (thanks, bosoms), but this one is flattering and non-revealing for us ladies with larger chests.  Check it out here or call the ladies at Palm Village in Asheville ((828) 505-8140) for your own magic dress.  I need to take a better picture so y'all call really see it in all of its glory.  A wrap dress that works on my top half is truly a work a genius.


What else is going on?

Beverages:
I am still faithfully drinking my apple cider vinegar weight loss tonic.  I haven't weighed myself, but have received several comments lately that I am looking trim.  Hurrah!  I have also been enjoying a lot of coconut water- so hydrating and tasty.  It's nature's Gatorade.

Baby Stuff:
Daddy and I took Dell Harper to Babies R Us last night, as it was time for some new toys to entertain my little busy bee.  She got a little work bench, a remote control and a walker.  I was late to work this morning because we were so busy playing.  If I did a plank every time Dell Harper did in her attempts to crawl, my tummy would be bikini ready.  She is so close!

So that's what's going on in our world.  We all have parties to go to this weekend- a 2 year old birthday party for Miss Priss to attend, and a 30th birthday party for her parents to attend. Pretty exciting!

  1. Clearly I love her driving. Also going to need to try that dress on. Wraps also look WONKY on me. Interesting. I am scared of the Tonic but am considering this. Does it taste horrible?

    1. I don't know how- but I stood in front of the entire church, holding a baby, and it did not get revealing. It also makes me look like I have a waist, and covers my c-section pooch. I love it!

      It really doesn't taste bad- esp if you add a couple packets of Stevia. I think it really helps with hydration and water weights.

  2. I love this picture. She's precious & your dress looks mighty cute. And whats this apple-cider-vingear thing everyone is doing? Hmmm, might need to add that to my grocery list!

    1. Bonnie, I wrote about it here- http://www.spiceandsass.com/2012/09/weight-loss-tonic.html

      I think it helps with water weight. My grandfather, who was a doctor, always said ACV and hot water with lemon (and collard greens) would keep you in good health for all of your days.

  4. Good to know about this wrap dress - I have the same top heaviness issues and typically have to sport a safety pin in the cleavage area to hold everything together

  5. I looove this family photo - you all look so happy! The dress is magic indeed! (I hate having to layer camis under, well... everything. And I can only imagine how much worse it is for you now!) This photo of DH driving pretty much made my morning.

  6. DH in the car - too, too cute. Love it. And that's a great picture of the whole family. I'm not blessed in the chest area (it's sadly worse post-baby) but I do love that dress! Might have to run by my local Lilly and try it on.

  7. Love the pic of Miss DH in the car. You need to give a framed picture to her when she gets her driver's license...The time goes by so quickly... looks like you are appreciating every minute. Love your blog... all the best... KC
