Hello, I'm Christina.

Carolina Charm

Five on Friday!

This is definitely the happiest Friday I’ve had in a very long time because…Matt and I are playing hooky together today for a little day date while the kids are in school!

one. Guess where we are headed? Hint: It’s my happy place. And no, it’s not my driveway, although we do love a good happy hour there! We’re headed to the mountains!

two. Last weekend Matt (& Thomas) cashed in a gift card that Matt has been hanging on to forever on a new Yeti…and one for me too (best surprise ever)! I now understand all the hype around these amazing tumblers! And I’m obsessed with the seafoam color he got me.

three. I have painted my nails (& Caroline’s toes) this gorgeous Essie color called Bikini So Teeny like seven times in a row now. I am so obsessed with it. It’s the perfect summer blue and although I normally opt for pinks and reds for toes I have loved this color on my toes and have received so many compliments!


four. New dress! New dress! I am always on the hunt for casual summer dresses to wear on the weekends and I just scooped this one up on sale for $19!! It comes in a ton of patterns and the fit is so flattering. These braided sandals are also my favorite for summer — I have them in white and gold and just grabbed two more pairs (black & brown) on sale! They are so comfortable and go with everything!

๏ปฟ

five. A few evenings ago I met a girlfriend for pedicures and cocktails. THIS cocktail is definitely going to be my summer jam — lemonade, muddled strawberries and vodka! It was so refreshing and delicious!!!

    Enjoy your day date! We have the seafoam Yeti and I just love it! It's so fun! That nail color is precious; I need to go pick that up for my toes before our beach trip. ๐Ÿ™‚

    Dude…Bikini So Teeny! It's been my go-to for years (mostly just on my toes), and it's amazing how many compliments I get! Such an odd thing for people to notice and go to the trouble of complimenting!

This is definitely a happy Friday for me! It’s my birthday weekend and tonight Matt is taking me out for dinner (location is a surprise) to celebrate! On Sunday I turn the big 3-0 and I honestly cannot believe it! But then I catch my wrinkles in the mirror and totally can.

Happy 4 year friendship anniversary and 31st birthday, Laura!!

To kick off the birthday celebrations my birthday twin bestie and I are getting pedicures this afternoon. Funny short story – Laura and I met through blogging 208 weeks ago. We were loyal blog readers of each others for awhile before we ever met in person. Then one special birthday 4 years ago we ran into each other while celebrating our birthday dinners at our favorite restaurant – Cowfish. And we were wearing the exact same dress. It was then that we knew we were destined to be besties. Fast forward 4 years later, Laura and Andrew are some of our very best friends now!

Okay, I know, I know I promised a five!

My sister was in town earlier this week for a night! Prior to her arrival she shipped my birthday present down early so she wouldn’t have to check a bag. Anyway, I am so obsessed with the new products she added to my skincare collection that I must share!

So this is my current line up of favorite face products. And it just so happens that I love all 5 equally. Some of these I’ve mentioned before and two of them are my new birthday prezzies. However, they all deserve a shout out for being amazing. If your skin starts to freak out a little bit during the cooler temps you should consider trying some (or ALL) of these…

one // Mario Badescu Facial Spray. Not new to the blog but definitely worthy of mentioning again. This refreshing facial spray contains aloe, herbs and rose water and makes for a perfect setting spray! And it’s only $7!

two // Mindful Minerals Get Dirty Mud Mask. My sister has been using this for awhile and surprised me with a bottle for one of my birthday gifts. I am loving it. It’s tingly after it sets in and feels SOOO good when you wash it off. You all know I have major skin woes and this stuff clears away all my dead skin and leaves my skin feeling refreshed.

three. Clinique Moisture Surge. Hands down, the best moisturizer I’ve ever used and I’ve tried a LOT.  

four. Mario Badescu Seaweed Cleansing Soap. Another gift from my seester (she’s been using for over a year) and I am obsessed with how refreshing this daily cleansing soap is. Also, it smells heavenly. Mario Badescu just doesn’t disappoint!

five. Clinique Moisture Surge Overnight Mask. I use this on top of my moisturizer at night. It adds an additional silky layer of moisturizer to my face and in the morning I can totally tell a difference. This is definitely a product to have on hand for winter!

Happy weekend, friends!

    Happy belated birthday! If you don't mind me asking, what type of skin do you have? I want to try the mask but I don't know if it will be too much for me! I seriously have the tiniest pores so it's easy for my skin to freak out.

Five on Friday!


Today is my last day of work for awhile and I am so ready for.the.weekend. But then I remember that following this weekend is my procedure and I start freaking out about all of the things I still need to do before I’m out of commission for six weeks. You know, things like…


1. Purchase button up shirts and pajamas for recovery.


2. Purchase a million pillows to keep me propped up since I have to sleep sitting up for a couple months (fun).


3. Clean my car so the moms won’t be disgusted by the amount of crushed graham crackers, toys and trash scattered everywhere as they drive the kids around for a few weeks.One of my girlfriends surprised me with an Autobell gift card so I’m so excited to not have to vacuum it out myself!! Yay!


4. Get a pedicure (another surprise gift)! This seems silly BUT I won’t be able to do my hair or makeup for a long time so having my toes done may help me feel like a decent human.


5. Fill my Netflix que.




AND….




Say goodbye to the tatas! Which really, this is just an excuse for a much needed surgery distraction by gathering our closest friends together for a big playdate, drinks, cornhole, marshmallow roasting and cake.


 


two. Caroline has been loving her new collection of Halloween and fall bows from Julia’s Bowtique (our favorite place for bows)!


three. I’m loving that my crockpot has been cooking dinner for us all week. We’ve enjoyed our favorite Crockpot Balsalmic Glazed Pork Tenderloin and also Baked Potato Soup.




four. Gone are the days of standing on cold bathroom tile while I brush my teeth! Natural Area Rugs sent us the gorgeous (and ridiculously soft!!!) Amelia Shag rug for our master bathroom so now I smile every time I step out of the shower!


 
PS – My counter top never looks like this in real life! I wish it did though.


 


five. I can’t wait to soak up my babies as much as possible this weekend. Pretty sure I am going to carry and cuddle them all weekend long. It’s going to take months until I’m strong enough to lift over 10 pounds again so I’m going to embrace these last few days of “up, peez!”




  We had our Christmas shoot last weekend with Allison and I love this candid shot she took while Caroline was yelling for the duck-ducks! Oh, and I would be remiss not to mention how awesome of a job LRT did on my hair and makeup! Many more pics to come from this day!

Five on Friday!








 
What a great week it has been. Thank you all so much for your sweet comments on our pregnancy announcement! We really are so excited and I have so much to fill you in on! In the meantime, here are five other highlights from the week.


 




– ONE –  Matt, Caroline and I all had Monday off for MLK day so we enjoyed a nice long 3 day weekend and caught up on a million errands and checked off overdue to-do’s. We got my car serviced and also took Matt’s truck in for the 534,523,453,145
time for yet, more repairs from the accident. Fun times.


 


Matt and I also got hair cuts at Great Clips. Yep, we are so not fancy when it comes to hair cuts. In fact, it’s been years since I’ve had a cut over $15. That’s just the one thing I can’t bring myself to splurge on since I don’t get color, highlights, layers, etc. Anyway, I was feeling impulsive and cut off 3 inches. Matt was shocked and so was I. Hours later I started regretting 2 of those 3 inches. Oh well, it’s “healthier” now is what I’m telling myself. Later that night we attended an engagement party for our friends.



Oh, and I made a TON of baby food! What a labor of love, truly. Glad that’s done…for the next two weeks anyway.


– TWO – Cleaning tip! When we purchased our upholstered rocker from Pottery Barn I couldn’t decide on color. The sales associate talked me into a cream color because “spit up is white” and the stains aren’t so obvious. Made sense to me so I took the plunge on a cream rocker. Anyway, I later learned that spit up is only white for 6 months…and then it’s green, blue, orange or whatever other color baby food you fed your mini last. So I called PB back and asked how in the world I was supposed to clean my overpriced upholstered rocker. The answer — Mr. Clean Magic Erasers! I was skeptical but picked a few up and went to town on my rocker last weekend. Guess what? These WORK! I was so excited that I went on a furniture cleaning spree to rid our house of spit up stains…which lasted all of four hours until Caroline projectile vomited sweet potatoes across 3 of our couch cushions. I’ll be purchasing Magic Erasers in bulk here.



– THREE – Easy dinner of the week – veggie flat breads! My sister turned me on to these awhile ago and they are super delicious (and healthy).  I throw a 90 calorie Flat Out into the oven at 400 degrees for a few minutes to toast it. Add mozzarella and goat cheese then throw back in for about 5 minutes (or until melted). Top with spinach, tomatoes and avocado. Finish with a drizzle of balsamic glaze (my favorite part)!




– FOUR – Last weekend my sister hosted a bachelorette party and I had to share her cute drink station set-up! Those balloons took her forever to make but they turned out fabulous.




– FIVE – Make sure to stop by the end of season sale over at Sugar Bit to save 40-70% off everything from fall/winter!!!

    Reply

  20. Denise B says

    I bought like 50 erasers on eBay for like $10. They're the "generic" ones so they don't come in the fancy box, but they are made from the same material as far as I can tell and work just as good!

  21. M @ The Sequin Notebook says

    Seeing all of those ice cube trays of baby food is taking me back to when I was still making purees! It'd always seem like a ton and then it'd be gone in a week – haha! And I had no clue about the magic eraser tip, but I will be trying out immediately! I have that same rocker, but in a dove gray, so it definitely shows everything.. including paw prints from my furbaby who loves to clean her paws on the ottoman! Hope you have a great weekend! xoxo, – M @ The Sequin Notebook

    Good for you for getting out and about so soon. I am really hoping that I am able to get back out into the world soon after having our little girl, so it's good to see it's not impossible. She's beautiful!
