fill in the blank friday.

Happy Friday!
I could not be more excited that it’s Friday today and all I want to do is rest and relax!
Aaaaand…what better way to do so than with some blanks?
(OK…trashy TV and ice cream would be pretty relaxing too…but OK. Blanks it is!)

1.  One thing I plan on doing to relax this weekend is    paint my nails? I dunno. Maybe watch the DVR’d finale of Project Runway too. No spoilers – I haven’t watched it yet!   .
2.  A big pet peeve of mine is  when people say their baby is “the cutest baby EVER!” Their baby may be cute, but not every baby in the history of the world can be the cutest baby ever. It’s subjective, I realize this, but why say it? Maybe I’m weird. I think Fern is adorable, but I’m also her mom and do realize that even though I may think Fern is the cutest there are other babies cuter than her somewhere on the planet. Hmmm…this makes me sound like a total hater, so I’ll stop.   .
3.  I am really loving   wearing the color black lately. I’m pretty sure it’s my new favorite color to wear. Flattering and matches with everything. Sold.  .

4. The rain is   kind of a downer, but I guess it makes me appreciate the sunshine  .
5. My favorite girly indulgence is  nail polish. I rarely wear it so it totally seems super girly and fun when I do .


6. A song I always get stuck in my head is  The “Slippery Fish” song that I sing to Fern. It’s so annoying, but she loves it, so I sing it anyway  .


7.  The best cure for stress is  snuggling with a baby. Seriously. Try it  .


Hope your weekend is fantastic!

  1. Thanks for always being so faithful in your posting each week. It is a fun activity that I enjoying doing and I love reading other people’s comments and posts too. I love reading about your life and it gives me a great window into your life. <3

  2. One of my favorite things is when moms are honest about their babies, rather than proclaiming their offspring the CUTEST or SWEETEST or SMARTEST or WHATEVERest baby on the planet. It’s so refreshing to hear moms speak truthfully about their babies, you know?

  3. Snuggling with my Emma is definitely the best!

  4. Linking up for the first time this week. Thanks for the inspiration! Snuggling babies is definitely the best — sadly mine is now a busy toddler who will not stop for snuggles. When I get them, I savor them.

  5. Two cheers for nail polish junkies 🙂 Thanks for this post and the link up!!

  6. I usually never wear nail polish, but I’ve just been loving it lately. I totally agree, it makes me feel fun and girly. it gives me that extra umph.

  7. Poppy and Fern are totally “the cutest babies ever!!!!”

  8. Snuggling a baby is a wonderful way to cure stress – snuggling a seven year old is also wonderful but they tend to get stinky and reluctant around 10. 😀

  9. It rained here so many days this week — definitely a downer! I am ready for some sunshine!

  10. I absolutely love this! Rain? Totally. It’s not raining here but it’s been foggy/overcast. Same downer effect. How has your relaxing gone this weekend? Want to know what I did yesterday? Nothing. And it was amazing 🙂

  11. I gotta say, Fern is a darn cute baby.

  12. I’m not gonna lie and I have said it to you many times before, Fern is THE cutest baby in the world.

    Black is always my go-to, it makes me feel skinny.

    I love wearing nail polish but I found that I was wearing it too much and my nail were going yellow. I have taken a two week break so I am ready to do some nail art on Sunday night (it’s my tradition to paint my nails before I go to bed)
