.Nail Polish.

[via]

I admit it. I have got to be the World's hardest person ever on their nails.

My hands are dainty and small, and as my grandmother would say "Perfectly girlish", but the poor suckers get beat up to no avail. And it shows on my nails.

I moisturize. I groom. I even change up my polish every week, but the second I do something....BAM. 

A nail chips. A nail cracks. A nail gets broken.

And don't get me wrong, this post sounds like I am some girly-girl all worried about her nails.....but I'm not. Rest assured. I just wish I had a solution to this problem because, frankly, it sucks. There is nothing I hate more than doing my nails over-and-over again.

Any suggestions?

And in the meantime, while I hate just re-pinning pinterest pictures [it feels lazy], check out all these cool nail combo's popping up for spring.

I am in awe. Now does anyone want to come over and paint them for me?

.Baby Girls sure are fun to shop for.

This Saturday was a busy one. Just the way I like 'em.
We attended a baby shower, a birthday [happy birthday marc!] and an awards banquet all in one day.
And although we thoroughly enjoyed each, what really had me surprised was this:
Shopping for baby girl.

Because holy-dyna, there sure are a LOT of cute baby girl items out there. How do you choose?
