It's Friday....

Do you know what that means?! That's right...it's time for some confessions!! I skipped my confessions last week because....well I was on my way to New York and I didn't feel like posting a blog from my phone {however I seriously considered doing it!}, so maybe I will give you some extra confessions this week...maybe!

I admit {prepare yourself for this, it's gross} that yesterday on my way to work I realized that I forgot to brush my teeth!! OMG...I can't believe I did that! Of course I was rushing around trying to get everything, while Keegan is whining that he doesn't want to leave and he wants to watch "his" TV. I told Keegan he had five more minutes {which it was only 2 minutes} so I scarfed down a bowl of cereal grabbed everything & we headed out the door....minus brushing my teeth! I felt gross all day & brushed them as soon as I got home {and this morning}!

I admit that I didn't wash Keegan's clothes for almost a month....true story! I just did all of Keegan's laundry this week and the clothes he wore Labor Day weekend were at the bottom of the hamper....whoops! That just goes to show you how many clothes this kid actually has! OH...and I only did it because he was out of clean pajama shirts! :)

While in NY there were people dressed up as different characters standing around letting people take pictures with them. Of course they work for money so if you take a picture with them it will cost you. Well....while sitting at the Rockefeller Center, I saw Elmo & thought I have to take a picture and send it to Keegan!

I admit that I took like 10 pictures of Elmo on my phone until I got just the right one while sitting ! It worked and Keegan loved getting the picture on Daddy's phone!

I admit that when I get to work in the mornings I usually don't do anything work related for the first hour...honestly! My routine...e-mail, Facebook, People.com, Days of Our Lives website, check new blogs that I follow, personal e-mail. Then I start doing work related stuff....sometimes! :)

I admit that I spent too much money on a purse that I won't use very often but I have a very good reason....it's COACH!! I grew an obsession for these purses while in Vegas, which is where I got my first one, so I figured why not get one while in NY also?! It is one of those that you wear across your body but it is smaller and perfect for those occasions that I need a purse but not my big every day one!


I admit that the only thing I really want for Christmas is this & I'm trying to convince Ryan that I have to have it...even though he thinks it's crazy to spend the amount of money that is on the price tag. {feel free to help me convince him to get this for me!}

Seriously, I would be perfectly content if all I got for Christmas is this purse, I would even be happy to consider it my birthday present also! {Ryan....I know at some point you're going to read this so....please, please, please get me this for Christmas, I would love you forever (and yes I already do but you get what I'm getting at) and I would be the happiest person ever! Love you Babe!}


I admit that we moved the TV that was in Keegan's toy room into the front living room of our house. Not a big deal right? Just wait...we decided to move the TV into this room {which we don't use hardly at all} whenever we got the DirecTV hooked up. Why? Because that way either me or Ryan can watch it while the other is watching the TV in the main living room and sit on a regular size couch at the same time! Yep...we moved the TV out of Keegan's toy room for our own selfish reason...but Keegan loves it because he can sit on the big couch now instead of his little Cars couch that he is getting too big for! So it was a win-win situation and everyone is happy!

I think that is plenty for this week! Now it's your turn...what are you willing to confess about?!

Birthday Party Fun

Yes....I know Keegan's birthday isn't until November BUT I can't resist starting early on all of the stuff I will need for his party! I've already ordered his shirt, have a banner & favor bag tags in the works, and got the cake covered {kinda}. Now I'm working on the invitations. Let me rephrase that....I've been working on the invitations for about a month now but I just haven't found anything that I absolutely loved...until now! I know you're asking "so what's the problem Meagan?" I will tell you what the problem is, I found three that I LOVE but I can't decide which one I absolutely love the most. I'm kind of leaning towards one more than the other two but then I look at all of them and I'm back to loving all three equally again!

This is where you come in! I'm going to show you the three that I have it narrowed down to and you are going to tell me which one you like the most!






Keep in mind that I will be changing the information & pictures on all of them! :)

Picture Day...

Oh the joy of school picture day! I completely forgot about Keegan's "school" pictures being done today until I saw the poster yesterday morning! It's a good thing I remembered then and not this morning when I dropped him off!

At least I had all day yesterday to figure out what he was going to wear....then I realized that he didn't have any nice shoes that fit him anymore! Ugh....why do kids have to grow so fast?! All he has for shoes right now are two pairs of tennis shoes {both of which look crappy}, two pairs of flip flops {both of which are a tad bit too small because his feet grew almost two sizes over the summer}, and a pair of brown sandals {which wouldn't go well with a fall background}! Luckily Payless is on my way home from work so I stopped by yesterday to see what they had. To my surprise they have their famous BOGO sale going on right now....score! I went to his section and of course they didn't have much of a selection, not to mention they didn't have the kind that I really wanted. Then I didn't know what size to actually get him so I used the BOGO to my advantage and decided to grab two different sizes just to be on the safe side! I found a pair that I liked grabbed one size, went to get it in a different size and guess what?! They didn't have it....go figure! I found a different style that I liked but wasn't crazy about them...that was until I saw they were on sale for $9.99! Yep...they looked a lot better now! :) I grabbed both pairs of shoes & went to checkout. The first pair was marked at $17.99 {which by the way is ridiculous for a pair of shoes for a kid who is only going to wear them for a couple of months} but when she rang them up it said $14.99! Don't forget about the BOGO...the pair for $9.99 ended up being $4.50!


That's right....I got these shoes for only $4.50!!

I had every intention to take the pair back that didn't fit Keegan but once I got home & tried them on him I decided to keep them both! :) I mean he will grow into the bigger pair and when he grows out of the other pair I won't have to worry about finding shoes again...not to mention I wouldn't be able to find another pair for $4.50!

After all of the shoe issues I realized I had know idea why I was so worried about it. It's not like I'm going to be buying these pictures anyways...why you ask? Well, Keegan is known for not smiling for pictures. And it's not that he just doesn't smile, he also gives what I like to call "who the hell are you" face to the photographer!! {If any of you know Keegan I'm sure you know what face I'm talking about!!} And school pictures are always right before his birthday, which means he will be getting professional pictures taken soon and I can almost guarantee they will come out good!

For example...his two year pictures:


Which is actually not that bad, but trust me there are other pictures that have been A LOT worse! If only he would smile all the time like when he was a baby!



Oh well....I guess every kid has bad school pictures at some point in their life!
