Library Day

I can’t handle how old Wes is getting! His cuteness kills me! He has his first day of Kindergarten next week! Him and Mara are the same height so everyone thinks they are twins 🙂

Mara is such a good little nurturer. She loves carrying B, getting his bottle, buckling his car seat. She always wants to help and take care of him. I’m so thankful for what a good sister she is!

Love these sneakers the color is so pretty!

The kids love going to the library! We picked out their back packs (boys version) for school a couple weeks ago (obsessed with these they are on sale- under $25, and have option for personalization on them so the kids got to pick out how they wanted their name written and what animal or shape they wanted on it) and when they came in the mail they were beyond anxious to use them! Since school doesn’t start for a few more days we decided to make it a library day so they could use their backpacks for library books. In full honesty I swear I get a late fee every time we go to the library because I always forget to return them! Grrrr but I love seeing how excited the kids get to pick out new books. Mara started reading mini chapter books so she is always picking big books she can read to her brothers. B on the other hand was a hot mess in the library! He didn’t get the whole “quiet” part. He’s really into chase and hide and seek right now so he thought the endless aisles of books made the best maze! He would run down the aisles laughing and screaming as I would frantically chase him trying to get him to be quiet. Some days he is the most well behaved and other days no matter how many times I tell him no or try to discipline he just doesn’t listen.

Besides the back packs we got a few more things at Lands’ End for back to school. The kids shoes we picked out are so cute! Wes got these sneakers. They are white which typically is rough with boys but they are leather so I know they won’t get dirty as fast, they look so cute with shorts too! (Don’t forget to spray your shoes with a protectant it makes a huge difference on how dirty they get) Mara got these burgundy booties and I was wishing they had them in my size 😉 They look so cute on her and burgundy actually mixes and matches with a lot of things so don’t be afraid to step outside your neutral color wheel with these. They are super versatile!

I couldn’t help myself and picked out a couple things for myself too. These burgundy sneakers are the ones I wore on snapchat you all were asking about. I love the color! (can you tell pretty much all the kids have a shade of it on 🙂 I also got this cable knit sweater. Chunky knit sweaters are the best for fall!

I’ll be hosting an event with Neiman Marcus this weekend in Denver at the Cherry Creek Mall from 1-4pm! I would love to hang out and shop with you guys! Hope you can make it!

XX,
Christine
