nursing in style // spring time and mama-jorts

it's spring here in texas, which means, it's 80 degrees.  the first few weeks of warm weather is always a little awkward for me.  going from layers and sweaters and leggings and boots to shorts and sandals overnight is the best way to realize you're lacking in the vitamin D department.  time for backyard playdates asap. 

this weekend, we are hoping to spend time outside, hopefully the weather will stay sunny and we can get some time in on the bucket swings.  or maybe snow cones. or hopefully both. 


i'm a big fan of these 4 inch inseam shorts from j-crew factory.  they are the perfect length for my little midget legs, but i don't think they look like mom-jorts...and if they do, please don't tell me.

why this works //  this cream shirt is really loose fitting and has stretch to it, which makes it comfortable and really easy to move in.  i layered it with a nursing tank (gilligan & o'malley always wins), comfy shorts and fun sandals.  layers are key to helping make your "normal" clothes function as nursing friendly ones.  oh, and did you know bangles also double as teethers? #prettyandpractical-ish.

so mamas, what are you spring favorites?

our happy place // adventures with eg

ingredients for a perfect day: me with a book and giant chai latte, baby girl with her best buddy george the giraffe, just hanging in the sunshine. 

since day one, sweet baby girl has loved the sunshine. nothing calms her down quite like being outside. it's quite the magic trick. maybe i watched frozen one too many times when i was pregnant. when the sky is awake, this baby girl is awake. then again...she's pretty much always awake.

lucky for us, we've had a bit of a warm winter, and with that comes many happy days. as much as i love cold snuggly sweater weather, i'm thankful for these few 60 degree sunny january days.


hopefully our neighbors don't mind the veggie tale sing along songs playing on the speakers.

gotta get that Jesus music.
