...BATMAN

I would like to introduce you to Batman, our new black lab mix puppy! We adopted him two weeks ago and he's gone from shy and mellow to full-blown puppy (read: crazy). He loves to chew on everything, especially any clothing I am wearing at the time, and he loves to snuggle on the couch after he's worn himself out. When he's old enough we will take him to the dog park across the street, which he stares at lustfully on our walks. 

Last Thursday we took him to puppy kindergarten and it was the best hour of my life. 15 pups running around was just hilarious and amazing. I recommend renting a puppy for an hour so you can participate. 

This explains a little bit of my radio silence for the past couple weeks, but as I type I'm in my room with ALL of our furniture while some water damage is being repaired and new wood (read: laminate) floors are being installed! So life is crazy. I'm handling it well I promise. Playing with the cutest puppy ever does help relieve some stress.

...monthly subscription boxes

Have you guys gotten swept up in the subscription box frenzy yet?! A couple years ago, right when Birch Box first started, I jumped on the bandwagon and I loved it! It was only $10 a month and I got a cute little present delivered to my door! But eventually I actually grew tired of having so many samples laying around and cancelled it. And noooow while writing this post I'm thinking about how I kind of miss it? Its a weird weird place inside this brain.

So during a snow day a couple weeks ago, a friend sent me a whole bunch that she thought were super cute! She was doing some research...on which ones she wanted to subscribe to...so I stole her suggestions! PS - this definitely isn't a sponsored post, just a fun one. i simply love is nowhere near that level (hello to my 6 readers!).




Glossybox is like a more upscale version of Birch Box, its more pricey, but the reviews are consistently high and you get more premium samples.

Wantable Intimates Box sends you four undergarments, socks, adorable lingeries each month. How cute of an idea is that?!

Dollar Shave Club will deliver razors to your guy each month and has the best video on their homepage. Just watch it and you will want to subscribe. Amazing.

Nature Box is featured on Cup of Jo all the time and looks REALLY good. However, I just can't seem to justify spending that money on snacks...a girls gotta save up her ice cream money somehow.

...braids

I am hopelessly terrible at doing anything to my hair besides blowdrying it. I recently forced myself to learn how to curl it so I could keep my girl card (is that a thing, I'm making it a thing). So that was an accomplishment. I keep seeing these awesome pins of braided hair and I want to do it! Someone come help me!



This tutorial has been super helpful, and just some good old practice!
