Drumroll please……. it’s FRIDAY! WHOOP! Let’s get down to the five on this friday!
[ONE]
Aria is 7 months old today!! It’s getting closer and closer to that year mark. WHOA. I wish there was a way to slow it down. I cherish every minute I get with her, because I know that she will grow up before I know it. These past few months have proven just that. I feel like Rudy and I were just talking about all the classes and hospital tours we needed to do before she arrived and it’s now June of 2014, and my baby girl is 7 months old. What they say is so true: the days are long, but the years are short.
Warning: Picture overload!!

Heading to Houston for my sister’s graduation from high school tomorrow! I cannot believe she’s graduating high school! Fun fact: I went to the same high school and graduated from there 11 years ago! She also had some of the same teachers. I have a feeling I’m going to be a big ball of mush on Saturday. This past Wednesday was the last day she had to go to school, and as we were talking about it on the phone, I teared up. I lie. I bawled like a baby. YUP. I’m already that emotional about this. Can’t even imagine what Saturday will do to me as she walks across that stage. Guess I should remember to definitely take my waterproof mascara…

On a happy note, can I be excited about the dress I’m wearing to her graduation that I just got from Banana Republic on sale? It’s so freaking cute and I’m obsessed with it! Summery and light! =)
[FOUR]
Speaking of fashion, has anybody seen these floral kimonos that are all the rage? I’m obsessed with them and dying to get my hands on one! Plus, I’m pretty sure I have an infatuation with all floral things right now. Anyhow, I feel like these kimonos are the perfect accessory for shorts, jeans, swimsuit cover-ups, or whatever!!

[FIVE]
The countdown is real! In a month, we are heading for our very first family vacation to Cancun, Mexico!! This is going to be a much needed vacation. I simply cannot wait to dip my toes in water, hang out on the beach with my loved ones, get a tan, have a cocktail, lay poolside, and god knows what else! I feel like I still have so much to do to get ready before this rolls around…sigh. Any tips on traveling with a 8 month old?
The paradise I’ll be lounging at in a month…I’ll be the excited mom with a pina colada in hand and a baby in the other.
P.S. – Excited to link up again with these lovely ladies – Darci, Christina, April, & Natasha!!

I'm hoping I can apply some of it to travelling with my little one! And I totally wish I knew about the stroller thing. I bought the Chicco Comfort Travel and hoping that will do!!
