Look Who's 10 months old!

Officially she passed the 10 month mark 3 days ago...and it now an official 10 month old!
She has been bringing smiles and joy for 10 months now, and it feels like she was just a little tiny baby wrapped like a burrito and I would just hold her all day!

See she had her flower on her headband for about .2 seconds...then shortly after the top picture, she removed that too! ha ha ha

PS Her outfit is another cutie we got from Gwen Stefani's Mini Harjuku line at Target! We LOVE, love, lOve...the whole line!

We busted out our Christmas decorations last night....so today I'm gonna try to decorate with the kids, and try to film some fun "holiday" videos at nap time- I hope! ha ha ha
hot chocolate and twinkly lights, your kandee

Outfits of the Day & Cray Cray

This is how we dress for Thanksgiving....
*Read this as if you are a correspondent/host on E!...
Alani is all decked out in her Christmas dress from Gwen Stefani's Mini Harajuku line at Target. (yeah, I know it's not Christmas, but why just wear a dress on Christmas when it's so cute!)..She also has on her plaid Mini Harajuku jacket. Black legging from Target...and her fav, Flex Elizabeth PediPed patent leather and suede boots with the satin bow laces,

 Blaker, who holds still for about .001 seconds, is wearing his new Mini Harajuku shirt (I told you we went crazy when we saw this line!), Denizen jeans (they are the "cool guy jeans" line for boys at Target), studded belt we bought at the Melrose Trading Post, "tent of $5 belts and sunglasses", and the turquoise VANS he picked out.

 Blakey took these blurry "outfit" of the day of baby...the other ones are so blurry you can't tell what she is. ha ha ha

 As you can't tell in the picture, she is wearing a pink and white striped romper suit, with a hood from Old Navy, other other favorite place for little clothes. And the holiday mary jane socks, from Trumpette's line at Target.

 This is what Jordan and my grampa wore....ha ha ha ha. Look how tall Jordan is...I think he grows by the minute. I think he just measured at 6 feet tall and growing.

My favorite....we spent Thanksgiving at my gramma's. No matter how old you are, you feel like a little kid at gramma's. All the troubles of the world melt away, and I just felt safe, cozy, and like the world is ok. And we had 3 different pies and desserts!

Then we went to the movies, I wanted to see the Muppets, but the kids wanted to see Arthur Christmas. So we saw Arthur Christmas, which was really cute, and pretty funny- the brother with the Christmas Tree goatee and the crazy grampa Santa was my favorite.
*THEN...as we drove home, I wondered if people would be camping out for the crazy Black Friday sales that go on here in the US, where things are like 99% off! ha ha ha

There were hundred of people camping outside of Best Buy...you'd think they were giving out $500 in cash with every $200 tv! ha ha

And as I posted on facebook...it doesn't pay to save $200, but have a $400 bill from your broken arm you got fighting people off at the sales. Did you hear of that lady that was spraying other shoppers with pepper spray at Wal-Mart, so they wouldn't beat her to the sales stuff!? CRAY CRAY!!!

They should call it GREEN friday...because all the green they make! ha ha ha

friday-ly yours, kandee

I'm not sure about this turkey dog suit. It look like a "banana-corn"- a mix between a unicorn and a banana...what turkey has a banana growing between it's eyes! ha ha ha
The tail feathers look nice though.
If you want your dog to look like a "banana-corn-key"...

We heart Harajuku (and Gwen Stefani & Target)

(Blakey's Harajuki slip-ons)

We went to Target the other day and I had no idea that Gwen Stefani was collabing with Target to do a kids and babies collection of the cutest clothes!

 (Baby, riding cozy in her Buggy Bag at Target...it turns any shopping cart into a cozy lazy-boy like chair! ha ha As you can see, the kids always make a first stop at the dollar section at Target...they might as well just place the toys as soon as you walk in- it stops us everytime!)
*I love Gwen Stefani- I've loved her style since I was in high school.
*I love Target- and the fact that the do cool, lines like this with other stylish peeps or brands. I never even saw the Missoni collection, except for a few weird clearance things like a scratchy baby sweater dress and some rainboots on clearance.
*I wish all this was in bigger sizes than just baby and kids!

Take a peek and the Mini Harajuku stuff- and I read how it was a mix of all the styles that Gwen has loved and rocked over her whole career...and not to sound like a broken record, but I loved everything!

 Look at these little Harajuku Mini Slip-ons!

 These onesie said it needed a home, and we took it with, us wore it yesterday, and got compliments everywhere we went! Can you see the little knee high socks in the background? So cutey.

 The little plaid, punk pants were so cute I bought a pair for Alani, Blake AND the baby! They can look like very different sized triplettes!

 Blakey in his Harajuku shoes, H & M pants (they have the cheapest kids clothes- like $3.95 for a shirt!) and a new sweater we got at Target...it's just there Target brand.

When I picked Alani up from school, she told me again, how much she loved her new outfit. I got her the plaid punk pants, with the little pleated flap on the back (my favorite part, I wish they made these in my size. Her striped shirt with the bows and tuxedo ruffles on the front, and the mini motorcycle jacket is so cute. Style of Gwen Stefani, prices of Target....awesome combo!

You can dress like a rockstar on a non-rockstar bank account!

Mini clothes and shopping carts... your kandee

PS. I have no idea how long this line will be at Target...all I can say is there's NO DOUBT, you better WIND IT UP and make a SWEET ESCAPE to Target before all that's left is SPIDERWEBS....ha ha ha

Hello Morning, Kitty & Cupcake

 

Saturday Mornings....

(I actually took this picture about 7 minutes ago)

My little dolly has on her new jammmies with 2 of my favorite things:

Hello Kitty

&

Cupcakes

This is reason 2,498 why I love Old Navy...

they make cute baby clothes....

these Hello Kitty Cuppycake pajamas are too adorable

...and yes, we use pacifiers as chew toys....

Happy Saturday... from Kandee, her Cupcake and Hello Kitty

Baby and Me Outfit of the day!

 Me and lil Cupcake heading to the Beautylish Beauty Social on Saturday...
she is wearing: (the cutest baby) leopard leggings from Target, a hand-me-down shirt from my neice, a fur vest we got at Old Navy, and a little "cupcake" like tulle hair clip, and I can't remember where we got her sockies!

on me: vintage giant "stud" looking earrings, shirt from some store on Melrose, and my very special, vintage Turquoise Squashblossom that's from Santa Fe...

I really wish Target had made these pink baby leggings in bigger sizes...
and Old Navy has the cutest baby stuff...the only problem is that everyone else must love it too, because they are always sold out of the sizes we need! ha ha

Leopard leggings and hair clips that look like icing, kandee

Toys and Tutus and the City

well sure there may be Sex and the City...but we are pretty much just Tutu or Toy and the City here...

we don't mess around when it comes to chew toys (we- and I say we loosely, because pretty much me and little Cupcake are together so much, "we" can say "we are a we"...because we have some serous favorites:

#1. Any of my fingers (with clean hands ofcourse)

#2. anything in site becomes a chew toy, almost

#3.  again...ANYTHING in site will become a chew toy

(we ate teething) Insert sad face....

Where'd ya get that Tutu Kandee?- you might be askin'- Target.

I have more cool photos from being in NYC...but I am so tired...I keep falling asleep on my computer, as I have done almost every singls night i've been in NYC. Up til 2-3 am trying to upload photos and blog...ok this is ridiculous, I almost fell asleep again...
We've got a long day tomorrow so I'm going to go to sleep right now....
sweet dreams or even sweeter awakeness... your friend, who will have more awesome posts tomorrow~ kandee

high heels for babies

 yes, time to start wearing heels is getting earlier and earlier....
now before your baby even learns to walk, she can be "heel-prepping" in her very own pair of baby high heels!

 are these not the most hilarious, or HEELARIOUS things ever!
they are made by HEELARIOUS (awesome name!), and they make different style of high heels, cowgirl boots, that are the cutest, funniest things ever! They are totally soft and puffy and feel like poofy slippers...don't worry they don't have real heels, they are just "stuffed heels"! My sister sent me these, they were my nieces and now Ellie Bellie gets to borrow them.

 

Cupcake (aka Elyse) had grabbed one of the delicious cookies that I got in mail...and speaking of "heels", you need to see these:

 yes, that is a "zebra print" high heel cookie!!
these are not only the cutest cookies I've ever seen (a crown that says "kandee", a modern candy jar, a cupcake with whimsical dots, a studded purse cookie, so many other cute ones..), they were dangerously delicious. Soooo good, everyone was like, "they cookies are sooooooooooooo good!"
If you wanna ship someone a box full cookies....they come wrapped on acardboard in bubble wrap, then inside cute clear bags with beautiful ribbons. They tasted fresh from the oven...wish I could send everyone one...I am drooling now...
the best part is, Debbie the owner of Debbie's Cookies...is a make-up artist turned cookie baker extraordinaire, you can see her artistry in the cookies now!

Debbie's Cookies

Just look at the case!!! I love it!
You have to go to their website and look at their other shoes and boots- heelarious!!! (the boots with the spurs crack me up...and all I can finish with is... Leopars Print baby high heels! Whaaaaat! I love!

puffy high heels and high heel cookies....all a girl needs....
