More Clara......

So it's pretty obvious why I don't write a monetized blog right? I meant besides the lack of actual writing skills and odd, fun, topics to talk about, I also stink at updating on a regular basis. It's my adult ADD kicking in. I start a project, and then get sidetracked on my 50 other things that MUST BE COMPLETED THIS INSTANT. So yep, things like blogging get put on the back burner. But just so that I don't let you, my awesome readers down, I have been committed and taking a picture of Clara every day. Well, every day I was here, and not away in North Dakota or Fort Wayne, and every day she didn't have school, and....well, I took a lot of them anyways! So, without further ado, more Clara photos from my Clara Couture Summer Tour 13. At least I know Grandma will appreciate them!


MJC Puffer at South Bend Silverhawks game. Bought these last summer and quickly decided I don't care for puffer style dresses, but my daughters love these, so I give in every so often.


Waiting in line at the Silver Beach carousal, some older Gymboree from consignment.


Pretty in Pink. Polo that is. Consignment buy as well.


And a bonus, since her cake pop matches her dress so perfectly!


Had to get up early and get ready for a run this morning, so Clara comes as is. 


Great garage sale find. And here's to wonky midwest weather, we're back to coats in this photo.


Let's add some pants and a sweater. One of my favorite MJC Art Fair tops.

One of those, it seemed like a good idea on Zulilly. Must...remember...Zulilly...not...friend

 Same day, tennis outfit. Just love Kermit, and so does Clara!!
 Strawberry picking in some Polo. Another garage sale find.
Want to know why my kid's so squinty? She refuses to keep her sunglasses on!
 Clara, circa 1982. Did I getcha? This is a photo of me with my mom and sister. I guess we can finally put the "who does Clara look like?" question to bed.

 Queen Clara, consignment dress

A Gymboree set. Is Christian staring you down? Why yes, he is!!

Clara in a cute consignment dress. Love her in bright colors.

Sugar? I didn't eat the bag of sugar....
Old tee from when Olivia was little and we went to Disney


More MJC from last summer. See why I love this stuff? Get 2 or more seasons out of EVERYTHING.


Okay, not EVERYTHING. Jeesh, you guys are so literal! MJC from a garage sale. It was her size, eep! Unfortunately with MJC's "unpredictable sizing this is way too small. But with leggings she pulled it off kind of as a tunic.


More MJC. Getting into our "Patriot Wear"

 Oh, and more ;)
 Classic, classic, Gymboree. They don't make them like this anymore!

4th of July!!


And another MJC. Okay, trend noted

 Had to include this one due to the joy on her face! I know the dress doesn't show well, but who cares?

Boutique dress from consignment. I have people ask me if it's worth it to shop consignment. I think this blog answers that question.

 Some boutique dress. I forget the brand. Why? Because I'm human!! But bought at discount last year. Soft, pink, and birdy, so all bases covered.
 MJC Art Fair, how I love your made in America beauty! This is from last year but, in great MJC fashion, still fits. Butterflies, and cue swoons.
 A bonus. This blog is proof I feed my kid too many sweets. But isn't that face worth it?
And last but not least. KPea. Our first KPea, and we got more compliments on this outfit than any other we've worn. It's supposed to be a top with shorties, but didn't know what size she needed so it's a dress this year and a top next.
