i totes have baggage {obvs}

exhausted from celeb-stalking for the majority of the day.  {apparently stalking is a full-time job}
they were shooting in sugar on top's backyard so i shamelessly showed up on set at 8 am with george & loo in tow,  as well as C & P.  the crew loved the pups and adam sandler totes gave g & loo the nod.

anyhoot, now having some downtime {i.e. online shopping}

jonathan adler on OKL today.

puntastic. {and true}

calypso also having ridic sale.

need.  

these.

maybe the movie stars will notice me if i wear really high shoes.  

or get another frenchie. . . hmmmm. . . .

what, me? delusional?  obvs.

lulu & bunny

i. die.

over these 4 year old twinkies.  and their names. {OBVS}

 their convo skills remind me of two other lil munkies i know.

also love-ing their digs.

enjoy this charming interview via house beautiful

my cup runneth over. . .

with beer, tequila, and an extra shot of nostalgia.

my sister-in-law walked across the same platform to receive her degree from my alma mater a mere 13 years after i did.  {she didn't get to make a pit stop to smooch johnjohn but we can't all be so lucky}

it was so spesh to be back in c-town, on campus, and in a random off-campus apartment for late-night. {obvs}

the WAC is a legit unique experience tucked away in a gorgeous part of this country and i'm feeling grateful for having attended {and survived} and i'm also very proud of lil J - holla!

frenchie friday: shades

such gorge weather on tap this weekend . . .

even frenchies need their shades.

all the m'head gals are headed to ack winefest.  have fun ladies!  do me proud.

we are going to my alma mater for CBC's sis's graduation.  congrats, JAK!

wherever you are headed this weekend - have fun and be safe . . . 

not so grown-up about movie stars

not gonna lie.

i'm pretty excited about these characters strolling the streets of marblehead.

filming starts next week.  blogging might be sporadic while i wander about town attempting to get 'discovered'.  surely they need a couple frenchie mugs in this flick.

george & looloo are ready for their close-up!  

obvs.

oh, and hopefully salma hayek is ready to give me my body back.

{bitch totes stole my body}

the name game

i heart baby names.  i've been obsessed with them as long as I can remember and now it's pretty much the only reason i would ever have a 3rd child.  {which i know isn't reason enough!} but i still love chatting about names.  and the day the "list" from social security is announced is a bit like Christmas morning for me.  merry Christmas to me!

here are the top 10 for 2011.  what do you think?  

{check out the top 1000 here}

names are sooooo subjective and i try very hard never to judge.  {this is after i've put my foot in my mouth far too many times, mind you.  obvs}
  so unless someone does something outlandish -ahem, jermajesty- i try to keep my lips sealed.

i personally like my girls' names being out of the top ten.  charlotte has crept up another twenty spots to # 27 but phoebe is still only # 310. ideally i'd like both names to fall somewhere in between but whatevs.  still totes love both names.  once you name your wee ones, that is their name and you will love it even more because it's well. . . them.

if you are preggers or know someone that is or are just a name-worshiper like moi- 

the baby name wizard is the best.  name.  book.  evah.  my former and bestest boss lady {HC!} told me about it and now it's a go-to gift for expectant mamas.
