1. Heck YES to it being Friday. Let’s just start out with that one right away.
2. Earlier this week, Lucas and I decided to stop by and visit Jay at work on our way home from daycare. I thought it was a good idea at the time but, apparently, he did not.
Umm, yeah. He was not a fan of basically anyone that came remotely close to us. I guess that was a bad idea on my part.
He looks so friendly, doesn’t he? 
3. So earlier this week when I made that chicken with the strawberry avocado salsa/salad? I neglected to mention that I had quite the encounter with the jalapeno that went into said salsa. Without realizing it, after seeding and chopping the stupid thing, I proceed to itch the side of my nose and under my nose onto my lip. It didn’t take long to notice, because holy crap did it BURN. I don’t think I’ve ever felt anything like that before, and all I kept thinking was, thank goodness I didn’t rub my eyes! After consulting good ol’ Mr. Google, I decided to try out a paste with baking soda and water…
Nice look, right? I really don’t even know if it did anything, but thankfully, the burning went away after about 45 minutes. Yikes.
4. I have been in need of a new clutch for a long time now, and after seeing this one earlier this week on Sole Society, I couldn’t help but buy it. I’m just in love with the mint green!
Right now, they’re having a deal where you can get 20% off of a $60 purchase, too. If you want to snag it, you can get it HERE.
5. As usual, a little inspiration for your Friday…
6. Cody was extremely curious about Lucas’s tubby the other night. So much so, that he supervised almost the entire bath time.
That photo on the right totally cracks me up…does it not look like Lucas is trying to take a selfie with Cody??
7. Thank you, Fabletics, for making some adorable workout clothes. I am so pumped about this outfit I just got in the mail yesterday!
I got the Norwalk Tank in Cucumber/Animal Impressions along with the Sydney Capri in Inkwell/Animal Impressions. The capris are definitely a bit outside of my standard plain black bottoms, but I’m diggin’ em and can’t wait to give them a go!
8. I have been having the absolute hardest time getting up in the mornings to workout this week. I don’t know what it is, but I think I’ve only managed two. I’m keeping my fingers crossed (since I’m writing this on Thursday evening) that the outfit above will keep me motivated to get up tomorrow morning.
9. You’d think I would have learned by now…never leave a basket of clean clothes out in the open.
Ohhh, Cody. You got me not once, but twice with the same basket of clothes.
10. I’m currently watching Grey’s Anatomy as I’m typing up this post and, man, I really wish I watched this show more often. It is always SO good! However, once I’m finished typing up this post, I’m totally throwing on Wednesday night’s episode of Nashville. It looked like it was gonna be a good one!
11. To finish things up for today, I’ll leave you all with a new house update…things are really moving right along!!
By the end of next week, the framing is set to be complete, and we’ll likely be doing our mechanical/electrical walk thru. I still just can’t believe it’s all happening…gahhh!
Okay my friends, I’m off to go watch my show. I hope you all have a fabulous Friday and a wonderful weekend, whatever you may be doing. We’ll likely be doing the whole packing thaaaang.
When I saw that pic first without reading I thought you were bleaching!
Hahaha, well it certainly could look that way now that you mention it! ;)
Fabletics has taken my workout gear to another level. I love my subscription!
I can’t even with Lucas’s faces. He is the most emotive child and I love it. And I also need those Fabletic pants. So exciting about the house! Can you hardly believe it??
I just got the same outfit from fabletics!! :)
I have so done that before with a jalapeno or chili. Oh my gosh. I have even rubbed my eyes before. Sometimes I just get it on my lips and they swell. I probably should give the jalapenos a break for awhile.
Love that outfit from Fabletics! And Lucas’s faces are too funny! So exciting about your house!! Have a great weekend!
i’ve got to get on the fabletics thing! they have the cutest workout stuff! those angry face lucas pictures are too cute – sorry, bud! lol
Oh my god, Lucus’ faces!! That’s awesome.
What do you think of the quality of Fabletics stuff? I’ve heard mixed reviews of it – in terms of how well the pants / capris stay up, etc. The print on those capris is awesome and very fun for spring / summer! Two thumbs up.
I’ve also heard mixed reviews, but honestly everything I’ve gotten from them has been fantastic. Good quality and super comfy!
Good to know – thanks for responding!!
OMG that face! That’s hilarious! Lucas is so dang cute! Especially with Cody.
And because of you, I tried a cookie dough iced coffee from Dunkin Donuts this morning. It seriously DOES taste like Cookie dough! OMG!
Yayyyy! Another new cookie dough iced coffee fan! :)
Nashville was crazy on Wednesday! The ending still has me wondering for the season premiere in the fall!
Oh my gosh, tht picture of Cody and Lucas is hilarious! Also, exciting about the house!
Lucas’ face in the first two pics hahaha! That fabletics outfit is ADORABLE!
I’m on the same page as you with the morning workouts this week!! I’ve slept in more often than usual and have had a really hard time motivating myself!
Even with his grumpy face, Lucas is so adorable!!! :) Hope you have a great weekend!
I have a deal right now with fabletics but I don’t know if I want to use it because I am not sure of the sizing. Is it true sizing or do you think it runs big/small?
WOW! Your house has come a long way in such a short amount of time. That’s awesome! Also.. loving the Lucas pictures. What expressive and funny faces ;)
I am always getting jalepeno all over myself – the worst is when you get it in tiny cuts on your hand you’re not aware of! A long time ago I saw some chef say they rub aluminum foil over their hands to remove the jalepeno, so I always do that. I don’t know if it actually does anything, but I think the placebo effect helps distract me from the pain, haha.
I love the picture of Cody and Lucas so much. Adorable!
such a fan of fun/printed workout pants. cute outfit! love L’s faces in the “office” pix. :) congrats on bldg a new house! i’ve been blog-world absent for the past 2-3 weeks and just saw this!
You are cracking me up today! Wow the house is really coming along. Have a great weekend :)
Whoa house progress! That’s so exciting!! Lucas at Jay’s office…hilarious! Apparently he just wanted to eat his snack in peace? I feel ya little man! :-)
Looks like a great outfit! I need to try Fabletics out soon. Good luck with the packing.
Lucas’ face in the first picture is precious! I love when kids make stubborn faces, but I am sorry it seemed to be a less than ideal situation! I really like your Fabletics outfit! They always have really cute stuff. :) My cat is just like Cody! I cannot leave clothing anywhere.
Oh I love the Lucas and cat selfie!! Love your new Fabletics outfit, a new workout top always gets me motivated. I really liked the Nashville finale! I hope you did too.
LOVE your new Fabletics outfit! I do think cute new workout clothes are motivating.
Those pics of Cody are hilarious! Can’t believe he got that close to the tub. I can def believe the laundry basket tho!
