My Bella Bambinos.... AKA Niece and Nephew!!!!!

Those who know me, even if you've only just met me once.... Know that I'm the most PROUD AUNTIE ever!!! Since the day my niece Nicolette Lois was born on Feb 6, 2009 my life has changed completely! The way I love and see the world is now through the most precious eyes of my now 2yr old niece! I mean whats more important than a coloring book and sippy cup full of the most delicious juice!

On Dec 22,2010 a new guy came into my life.... Matthew William Knoderer II... Baby Will! With the amount of love I have for Nicolette, I thought how on earth am I going to love him as much.... Well, I love him just as much if not more! Nicolette is a sassy drama queen and my baby Will is so laid back and just a precious angel! I can't wait to play games, color, and run around with him... Just as I now do with his ever sassy big sister!

The HOLLYWOOD FIND~ SO GLAM

It's finally Friday....it's been a busy week, hince the reason for the delay on a new post!

Last Sunday, I did some vintage shopping and stopped into Past Times Antiques here downtown!
They have some amazing things and I always enjoy rummaging through their clothes! I stumbled upon what I like to call a HOLLYWOOD FIND!!! This gown is to die for.. Remember how I'm loving pastels, well this is the perfect shade of lavender for spring! Why I havent purchased it... At the very inexpensive price of $22.. Who knows ! I often debate with myself.... If it does become a staple in my closet, I'm thinking of altering it!!! Any thoughts would be appreciated!

Happy weekend!

Here we GO~

My very first post.... Please excuse the lack of excitment, I have never done this before! But I've had some requests and encouragemnt from many to begin my own blog about my life, my shopping adventures and my vintage finds for almost nothing $$$! So..... HERE WE GO!

Yesterday was the first day of spring and with this amazing weather here in the midwest where Mother Natures hormones are CRAZIEST! LOL... I've found some amazing shopping inspirations! I'm loving pastels and I've recently discovered a fabulous Vintage shop here at home that most everyone has kept hidden from me ;) Annie Laurie's Antiques is AMAZING... I got this amazing, super sweet glassware set for $7... Yes yes... a set of 6 drinking glasses for $7!!! This is what runs through my blood and these purchases are my bargain queen high!

Well, my first post is complete! Happy following~
