The goods: A Motorola Wireless MBP26 Video Baby Monitor
You can read a great product review here http://mommainflipflops.com/motorola-wireless-video-baby-monitor-giveaway/#comment-187821 .
Here is what I love most about the product just from the description alone.
- The monitor has two-way communication (so you can talk to baby from across the house or sing a little lullaby if needed)
- It also has night vision (sweet, right?)

Now let's talk a little about Mass today. My husband and I do music at our church. We chose Table of Plenty for the opening song this week. As we are belting out "Come to the feast of heaven and earth. Come to the table of plenty..." our little 11 month old (practically) runner makes a beeline for the altar. I guess she was taking the words literally. Thankfully one of the wonderful ladies in the congregation gracefully though not exactly inconspicuously (there is really no way to be so when you are chasing a toddling baby) grabbed her and returned her to us. Just when the other two started settling down and regularly read and color quietly during Mass, the little one decides she's big enough to walk. Game over for us, I guess.

I have been pinning some fun fashion ideas on my style Pinterest board recently. Some of the ones that were really catching my eye recently were outfits that utilize magenta and teal as a fun pairing. Things like this: magenta cardi with teal pendant white dress with magenta and teal stripes magenta and teal accessories


Here's the look I came up with
Dress: Magenta Maxi (Ross)
Sweater: black striped (Ross)
Belt: teal (Hand-me-down)
Necklace: (Premier Designs)
Shoes: chunky white sandals (Ross?)
These were some of the outtakes my daughter snapped...
