paint blush

"look at how big my closet is!"

 we stopped into our soon-to-be new house to check out the progress.  maeby was instantly in love with her room (it's getting painted the same as her current room, so she's very familiar with the color already) and wanted to "help."

maeby is wearing: blue embroidered tunic with brown leggings: tj maxx, pink boots, circo (target), headband: goody

where the heart is

 if you've ever seen the movie, then you know natalie portman's character lives in a wal*mart.  she relies on supplies throughout the store to sustain herself and returns things back to normal before they reopen.  ikea is way up high on our list of places we could secretly live in (but trust me, this won't ever happen).

unicorn club

they really don't make as much purple clothing for girls as you would think.  boys' clothing is split pretty much down the middle between blue and green, but girls' clothing is predominately pink.  that's just one of the things that makes this sweater special, the other being that it was a gift from her aunt jess.  so in honor of aunt jess and jessica wakefield, maeby is representing the unicorn club.
