– First, I wanted to say hello to those of you that our fairly new and have joined us for the link-up party over the last few weeks!! I’ve been an absolutely terrible blogger for over a month now (I promise to do better), but I’ve noticed our link-up has grown. I’m sorry for those of you that I have not been by to say hello lately. I’m going to change that soon. If you’re new to my blog, you can read more about me and why I blog here.
– I hate that I’ve been out of my blogging rhythm lately. It really makes me so sad. I miss connecting with all of my readers and getting to keep up with what’s going on in your lives too! There is good reason that I have been out of sorts lately which I’ll elaborate on for you more next week.
– In the mean time, I’ve been running around town this week to get ready to go on a little vacation with hubby this weekend!! Follow along on the Insta (@homeofmalones) to see where we are headed today!! I’ll give you a hint….It’s WARM and tropical 🙂
– This little guy was my sidekick for a few errands. He has gotten to the age that I kind of dread bringing him out in public by myself!! Isn’t that terrible? I just never know how he will tolerate the stroller these days and the only way he is happy in the shopping cart is if he is fed the ENTIRE time. So I was I pretty nervous about the 3 or 4 stops I needed to do with him, but we actually ended up having a pretty good time. Nothing that cheerios, grapes, peanut butter crackers, and fruit chews couldn’t solve…..I swear the kid is like a bottomless pit.
– Did anyone take advantage of the Shopbop Sale yet?? I snagged a few things like these TB sandals I’ve had my eye on and this cute tunic. I also grabbed this BB Dakota dress at such a great price. I love the pockets. It’s so exciting to start stocking up on some cute new spring items!
– I haven’t started the new season of House of Cards yet, but I can’t wait until we do. I’m completely hooked again to the Bachelor and I’ve totally hopped on the Real Housewives train recently. I’m obsessed with Beverly Hills and then for some reason decided to try Melbourne. Damn they’re good.
– I’m off to finish packing! Have a great weekend and Ill catch you next week with some great pictures of fun in the sun 🙂
Link up starts at 6am EST.
have fun on your trip! i'm headed down to nola today – excited to go somewhere new!
Hope you have so much fun on your trip!!! Can't wait to see pictures!! xo, Biana – BlovedBoston
We are loving House of Cards…already on episode 6, I think. I remember the shopping cart issues! Hang in there. Have a great trip. Can't wait to hear where you are headed.

We are going to start the second season of House of Cards this weekend and I can't wait! I'm with you about being addicted to the Bachelor and RH of Melbourne.
We started Season 3 of House of Cards last weekend, and I'm not gonna lie: it's a LOT slower than the previous seasons! It's taken about five episodes for me to get into it, but I'm not giving up on Frank Underwood…I'm sure he has SOMETHING up his sleeve! 🙂
Yay- I'm so glad that you guys are able to sneak away for the weekend! Can't wait to see your pics (and outfits!)
Have fun on your trip! His face in that pic, too cute 🙂
Have so much fun on your trip!! Can't wait to hear what is going on, especially if it's what I think it is!!
Have a wonderful trip, hope it's relaxing and refreshing for you!
I am dying for a new pair of TB sandals. I wore my gold ones to death last summer. I'm thinking tan will be my color this year! Can't wait to see pics of y'all's trip…. So jealous!! We are going somewhere warm in December and I'm already counting the days! Xoxo
what a cutie pie! Packing is one of my favorite parts of taking a trip!

Nothing more exciting than a tropical weekend away with the hubby; have the best time! Your little man is adorable in his monogram outfit! So nice he makes a good helper now!
hoooray for tropical vacations!!! have the best time 🙂 xo jillian – cornflake dreams
My first child is and always was so easy to take out on errands but #2 is the complete opposite! I don't think I'm as prepared with snacks as you are!! Have a great trip – can't wait to see where you end up! Oh and loving that BB Dakota dress…may need to add it to my shopping cart!
Eek thank you for Melbourne reminder. Someone just mentioned it was starting so glad to know it's now available! Love those BH crazies too for sure ha. Happy Thursday!
YES to House of Cards! Just finished Season 3 the other night, and it was incredible! You'll love it 😀
Not wanting to run errands with a toddler is completely normal. Now that I have 2 I pretty much refuse to do any kind of errands with them. Thank God for snacks. I wouldn't have made it through any shopping trips with my oldest without snacks. She turns 3 on Saturday and I still depend on snacks to get her through and I am definitely not above bribing with chocolate if we have a successful trip. Whatever it takes!!!! Have a great trip!
