I’m already on Chit Chat Fourth Edition, boy time flies when you are having fun 🙂
Before we even get started, I know this was sooo last week and kind of old news by now, but was anyone else completely surprised that Sean picked Catherine?! I thought for sure it was Lindsey.
I like Catherine, but it seemed like Lindsay was so ready for a family where Catherine seems to be far away from wanting to have kids.
Hopefully Lindsay will go and find herself a nice guy. Des as the next Bachelorette?! I’ll totally watch, but I’m a bit surprised they would bring a guy into her cooky family, lol!
Did you also hear that Sean will be on Dancing with the Stars? Did you also know Sean’s cute sister from the show is a food blogger? Cool huh?
So, I am a little obsessed with Easter Candy. I don’t know what is wrong with me, but I can’s stop buying it. For some reason, candy bars taste better in egg form right?
I was cracking up at these pictures a few days ago. The first one is when my husband and I were dating in 1997 and the one on the right is from a couple days ago. 15+ years has seriously flown by 🙂
This is what they call Thousand Step Beach in Laguna. It is one of the hardest workouts ever. I’ve been running the stairs with my crazy husband who is hard core. Trying to keep up with him.
I also started taking classes at the Bar Method. Anyone taken these classes before? Oh my gosh, talk about killer workout. I highly recommend it.
Over the moon about this find at Target. These sparkle sandals are only $16.99 and are surprisingly comfy! I know they have been tricky to find, but if you can find them, they are adorable on.
We’ve had crazy fog in the mornings lately. I took a walk with Pax a few days ago and snapped this photo. Kinda creepy and dream like, lol!
We went to AZ last weekend for a baptism and had all of Pax’s cousins together for a photo. All 7 of these babies were born within1 year of each other. Seriously love this! If you look closely Pax is holding hands with his cousin Coleman, we were dying!
Took the boys to see Oz, The Great and Powerful last week. I was so excited to see it and I have to say I didn’t love it. I was so disappointed. It was not really appropriate for little kids. I was even a little uncomfortable having my 7 year old watch some parts. Anyone else feel this way?
Some of my favorite J. Crew finds right now. The Polka Dot Blouse, No. 2 Pencil Skirt, Liberty Floral Scarf, Pink and White Stripe top.
If money was no object, I’d go pick up this Kate Spade today, lol! Her new line is fabulous.
Loving these Cute Easter Bunny Tail Treats, Raspberry Coconut Magic Bars, Spicy Paprika and Lime Chicken, and this pretty awesome kitchen pantry
Have a wonderful week!
Those shoes are so cute! And the pictures of the cousins! Oh my goodness, so much cuteness!
Sad to hear about Oz movie. Hold off on that one. Love your boys outfits. Where do you shop for them?
Married life has been good to y’all..You and your husband have aged very well 🙂
Loved the picture of the babies-so darn cute!
And you can’t beat candy and I’m sure there is less calories in egg form.. well that’s my story.
I was shocked that Sean picked Catherine-thought he a lot more chemistry with Lindsey.
Haven’t seen OZ- several people I know have voiced some of the same comments- I think we’ll skip it.
Oh my goodness about Oz! My neighbor said her 9-year-old had nightmares after seeing it. My 9-year-old has been bugging me to see it, but then today he said the school nurse told him SHE didn’t like it and she wished her elementary-aged kids hadn’t seen it either. With all those bad reviews, I guess it’s a no go for us!!
Love those J.Crew tops!

Can I ask what you didn’t like about the Oz movie? My 9 year old son really wants to see it, and I am a huge fan of the 1940’s Wizard of Oz, so I thought we would love it. Now I’m not so sure….
Hi Connie,
My boys are 8 and almost 11, it wasn’t so much that it was inappropriate (in my opinion) but it was very dark and dreary and in many parts boring to my boys. I’ve had friends who have liked it though.
I was totally shocked when Sean picked Catherine. Loved Des, she was my favorite and I’m glad she will be next up.
The couch full of babies is adorable, you need to put them back there in a few years and take another picture.
Love your chat sessions. Thanks also for the recipes as an aside. I agree, chocolate and all candy does taste better when it is egg shaped. Congratulations for all the adorable babies your family has added to the earth!
Thank you Karen!
That’s so cool that Sean’s sister is a food blogger! And side note–I also thought he was gonna pick Lindsey, it really seemed like they had more chemistry together! I saw him on Dancing with the Stars yesterday and was cracking up, I don’t think he’ll get very far but he is sure good to look at 🙂
Huh, I missed him on DWTS. I’ll have to tune in, lol!
thanks for sharing your family. the photos are so special. there is nothing like the friendship of cousins. hope these babies get to spend a lot of time together.
I know, Pax is lucky to have so many cousins!
You have just made me smile! I love the pics of you and your hubby…I can’t believe it’s 15 yrs between! (I thought it was maybe 2 years!) (=
Haha! You are too sweet. My husband looked like such a baby face back in the day 🙂
I have the same Easter candy addiction. I want to see the Thanksgiving & Christmas photo’s of the seven cousins, just thinking about it makes me laugh!
I am all about egg shaped candy too! I agree, somehow it just tastes better! Even the simple Reese’s tastes so different in an egg.
Jenny – I got a huge smile when I read you started going to Bar Method. It is the best workout ever. I have been going for almost 2 years and am addicted. Not only is it a fantastic workout, but all the women I have met are amazing. Hope you continue to enjoy it. Love the cousin picture – such cute babies. That Kate Spade bag is so fun and perfect for spring!
Oh Emily, I am totally addicted to it! I’m only on class #3 and just love it. So excited to get toned up after having Pax. I’ve got lots of work to do, lol!
Oh my gosh! I love the picture of all the babies on the sofa! How adorable. So are the pictures of you and your husband.
Thanks so much Connie!
Love the photos of you and hubby!! And the kiddies are too cute!!
Thanks Ann, it’s funny to look back 15 years. You don’t realize how much has changed!!
Love it! The picture you took on your walk is beautiful!
Thanks Thesha, I kinda love those foggy mornings 🙂
I, for one, and thrilled with the all the candy you have shared lately. Love it I tell you! 🙂
Haha! Me too 🙂
SO many babies in such a short time! You’re going to have one busy family 🙂 I bet reunions will be a blast. And seriously you two are just as cute now as you were then.
You are so sweet Rachel! I can just imagine our family gatherings in a few years with all of those babies!
Loved everything in this post! Especially the candy and the shoes!! Oh, an the purse! Ok, and all the picture of babbie + kids + you and your husband! To cute!
Haha! I couldn’t decide either Tieghan!
I totally agree with you that candy bars are better when in egg form. You are torturing me with all of that Easter candy though! Easter candy is my fave of all of the holiday candy (especially Reeses peanut butter eggs), but since I currently live in West Africa I won’t be getting any this year. *Insert sad face here* I will make up for it when I’m back in the states next year though! I will go CRAZY in the candy aisle, that’s for sure.
That fog photo is gorgeous. Frameable for sure!
Oh, and Sean and my husband share a hometown. They even went to the same highschool, although several years apart. Small little world.
West Africa?!! What an experience that would be! xoxo
I love those pics of you and your hubs! And that dreamy a.m. picture – gorgeous and dreamy is right!
And 7 babies in 1 yr? You guys can start your own football team just from your family. How fun they will all grow up together!
Haha! Thanks Averie!
