Merry Christmas!

Gosh, it's been nearly three months since my last post! Life has been wonderfully busy. I wanted to stop by and wish you all a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year! I'm going to make 2014 the year I get back into blogging. Until next time, xoxox

Life Is Sweet

 Gosh, I can't believe its been over two months since my last post! Life has been so very busy in the best way possible. Being a mom is truly the best thing I've ever done. Hazel is growing like a little weed and getting cuter each and every day. She's 15 weeks old now! It just two short weeks she'll be 4 months old! Crazy. Here are some of my favorite pictures from recently. Most I've taken from my instagram account... I reallllyyy want to officially get back into blogging again soon. That's one of my goals for this fall. For now I'll leave you with my sweetie pie...

Hazel Weeks 2, 3, 4 & 5

Hello! Long time, no see! I've been wonderfully busy being a mommy :) Can you believe Hazel is almost 6 weeks old?! I certainly can't! Time really does fly. I'm trying to enjoy every minute with my sweet pea. Anyway, I thought I'd share with you some instagram pics (user name qsdaydream) of Hazel's weekly birthdays so far..

Monday Hazel will be 6 weeks old! I plan on taking some pictures with my real camera then, hehe. I hope you all have a wonderful weekend! Talk soon. xo

Hazel Shirley 6.10.2013

On June 10th 2013 our little Hazel Shirley was born! She weighted 8 pounds 12 ounces ounces and was 19 inches long. It's so wonderful to finally hold Hazel in my arms. Jonny and I are having such a good time getting to know her! Here are just a few pictures from the last 11 days. 

She is such a joy and I feel so blessed to have her as my little girl.

I'll be posting more pictures soon! You can be sure of that ;)

A Quick Hello At 38 Weeks

Hat, Belt, Dress & Bag, Thrifted

Shoes, Saltwater Sandals

Hello! It's hard for me to believe, but tomorrow I'll be 38 weeks pregnant. Hazel could come at any time now! 

This is just a silly picture taken yesterday. If you've ever been pregnant you'll know that they like to compare the size of your baby to fruits and veggies. Hazel is now the size of a watermelon. Though, to me my belly looks bigger... That watermelon was not as small as it looks either! Well, I'm off to go eat that watermelon, hehe. Talk to you soon! xx

Q's Pregnancy Style, 35 Weeks

Sweater and dress, Thrifted

Pin and boots, gifts

Hello! This past Friday I spent the day running errands with my Mom. She quickly snapped these pictures of me with my phone when we were getting ready to say bye for the day. I figure iphone pics are better than no pics at all, lol! Anyway, I'm almost finished my 35th week of pregnancy. Hazel is doing great, she's kicking up a storm as I write this. Can't wait to meet her!

I hope y'all had a great weekend and a Happy Mothers Day to you mamas out there! xx

Maternity Photos Sneak Peak

Hello! Gosh, pregnancy has made me a terrible blogger! That should end soon though.. I have a feeling having little Hazel around to dress up will make me blog a lot, hehe. 

Today, I'm 35 weeks pregnant. Oh so close! This past Sunday Jonny and I had our maternity photos taken. They've yet to be edited down and prettied up so I can't share them yet, but I thought I'd share one of my favorite from the day now anyway.

I hope you all are well! Talk soon! xo 

Lately

Hello! I feel like it's been so long since I've last posted, so I just wanted to pop in and let you know what I've been up too! This past weekend was my baby shower. My sister flew in from Maryland and her and my Mom threw it for me. I had such a lovely time! I have such wonderful lady friends.
The last couple of days I've been getting Hazel's things in order. She'll be here before we know it! We've also been in the process of setting up the nursery. It's almost done and I can't wait to show you soon! After such a busy few weeks it's time for me to catch up on some sleep. Being pregnant can be quite tiring. I hope you all are well! Talk to you soon! xx

Q's Pregnancy Style, 30 Weeks

Cardigan, Gap years ago

Vintage 70's Dress, Etsy

Wedges, Mia

Hello! I can't believe it's been a couple weeks since my last post. Time sure is flyin'! 

Well, I'm almost 31 weeks pregnant and it's getting tougher and tougher to get dressed. At least now the weathers warmer and I can throw on one of the several dresses that still fit me! It's amazing how EVERYTHING seems to grow during pregnancy, not just your belly. Doesn't matter how well you eat or how much exercise you get, you're gonna grow everywhere! Oh well, lol! Only 9 more weeks until I meet my little Hazel!!

I hope you all are well! xo

Recently

Since the weather wouldn't cooperate the last few days I thought instead of sharing outfit pictures I'd share some recent pics from my instagram. Above is a view of my closet from my bed. The dress is my after baby Lena Hoschek dress that is waiting patiently to be worn. Also, three sailor dresses for Hazel. She now has one for the first three years of her life! All thrifted at different times for $2 each. Oh yeah!

Jonny's birthday was Sunday, so we did some yummy indulging on Saturday and Sunday. This isn't even everything naughty we ate, hehe ;)

Of course Loretta is always a huge part of my day. Looking cute as always.

And last but not least a bump shot from yesterday at 28.4 weeks. I plan on wearing this 60's lace dress a lot, so you'll see more of it soon! I hope ya'll had a fabulous weekend! If you'd like to follow me on instagram my name is qsdaydream. xo

Inspiration Friday, Clare Bowen

For this weeks inspiration Clare Bowen who plays Scarlett O'Conner on the tv show "Nashville". I must admit the reason I started watching "Nashville" was becuase of living in Nashville. I thought it'd be fun to see places I've know well on tv. Well, I'm still watching "Nashville" and a big part of that is Clare Bowen's character Scarlett. Not only does she have an amazing voice but I just love her style. Very vintage and romantic with a touch of country thrown in. What's even better is that Clare seems to dress that way in her real life too. So, if you haven't watched "Nashville" yet you should certainly give it a shot! Have a great weekend!

PS: I am on Blog Lovin' for those that would like follow. Here I am :)

Marilyn & Hugo

Just a quick picture of Marilyn and her basset hound Hugo. Have a great day! :)

It's Spring!!

Yay! It's officially Spring! My most favorite season of the year :)

I snapped this picture on my phone a few days ago when the weather was perfectly springy, in the 70s! Today, it's not so springlike. Like most of the country Tennessee seems to be going through a bit of a cold spell. Our highs are only going to reach into the 40s and 50s for the next week or so. Though, the weatherman has promised us more seasonal temps soon. So I'm keeping my fingers crossed! Yes, I'm slightly obsessed with the weather, lol. In the meantime I'm going to keep myself busy doing some sewing for myself and Hazel. I might even watch a movie like Blue Hawaii or Gidget and daydream about the beach ;) I'll talk to ya'll soon! xx

Q's Pregnancy Style, 27 Weeks

Cardigan, Very old

Vintage Flower Pin, Gift

1940's Dress, Ebay

Flats, Target on sale for $6!

Hello! Oh my goodness, the last two days were simply weather perfection! Lots of sunshine and highs in the upper 70s. I wish everyday could be so lovely.. but then we wouldn't appreciate it so much when it is I suppose.

Saturday morning I couldn't have been happier to get dressed. Warm weather does that to me! This 1940's dress is again one that has always been a little big. Well, no more, lol! I'm hoping I can wear it until June, but we shall see. I hope you all had a marvelous weekend! xo

Inspiration Friday, Streetcar Party 1942

I came across these pictures from the Life Archive on Johanna's blog. I just love the little stories Life photos tell. Everyone seems to be having a fun time in these. And they all look fabulous doing it!

Have a wonderful weekend! xx
