Weekly Wins // #19

Weekly Wins is a series where I touch on my “wins” from the week in the categories of love, buy, do, eat, give, read, tech, watch and wear. It’s 100% my favorite post to write. Enjoy! 

This might have been the most amazing week ever?! Did I say that last week too? But it really was… I guess you can say this summer just keeps getting better and better!! We were busy busy busy. Aside from all the wins you’ll read about below, I took my first yoga class in over a year, we went to the zoo again, we had numerous lunches outside, and lots of park dates with friends! The best!! Onto the wins… 

LOVE:  
Brody’s new stroller! So we have two strollers, guys. With city living, it’s kind of a necessity. One of the strollers is the UppaBaby Vista which is pretty heavy duty and we leave it at home because of that. It’s great though and I LOVE it for so many reasons!! The other one is a smaller scale stroller that I keep in my car and use on the go. Well, we’ve been using the UbbaBaby G-Luxe Umbrella Stroller and I really wasn’t a huge fan because of way too many annoying things that went along with it… so we decided we needed to switch it up! We got the BabyJogger City Mini {which is $20 cheaper than the g-luxe in the stores!!} and I AM OBSESSED!!!!! The best features are that I can see Brody from the back when the shade is down, I can push it with one hand, Brody seems more comfortable all around, you can buy the snack tray accessory which is a game changer for being on the go, it’s still light weight, it reclines, and it’s just EASY! It is one of the best strollers I’ve ever used! And Brody loves it too! Check the cool dude out while we were using it at the zoo this week! 

BUY:
Brody’s new waterproof boat shoes!! We haven’t actually worn them outside or in the water yet but B has gotten very comfortable wearing them around the house. Aren’t they dapper? Shop them here! 

PS I must let you all know that I did end up getting the super distressed jeans that I talked about last week!! I couldn’t not!!!! Get used to seeing them because I plan to wear them all the time! Woohooo! 

DO:
Impromptu date night seeing the White Sox beat the Tigers! I’ve never scrounged to get a babysitter so quickly in my whole entire life! The hubs and I had the best night and we had the BEST seats to boot. Literally we were behind home plate on top of the field. It was a nail biting game the whole time and the good guys won! Woohoo! Oh and there were also Banana Split Dippin’ Dots involved. Mmmmm.

EAT:
We ended up going to Gibson’s Steak House for our anniversary over the weekend and while my skirt steak was TO DIE FOR, these shrimp cocktail were some of the best I’ve ever had!! And I’ve had a lot of shrimp cocktail in my life {it’s my fave!}. They were SO big and SO cold and so FRESH! I’m still thinking about them!! 

GIVE: 
For our anni we said we weren’t doing gifts this year but of course I had to buy Isaiah a little something something! I ended up getting him these waterproof birks for the pool that I also featured on my Father’s Day Gift Guide!! He loves them!! By the way, Father’s Day is on Sunday so if you haven’t gotten anything yet, definitely consult the guide ASAP… it’s epic =)  

READ: 
So 4 years ago this exact week the hubs and I were in newlywedded bliss on our DREAMY honeymoon in St. Barths and Anguilla! Read all about it here on the Ever After Honeymoons blog =) PS if you’re looking for someone to plan your honeymoon or any upcoming luxurious vacay, Katie is the best of the best! 

TECH: 
I’m loving the new{ish} Honest Company App. Basically, it’s amazing! You can shop and share your favorite Honest Co items, you can update your bundle preferences, you will get shipment notifications and more! Not to mention, it’s totally appealing to the eye, super straightforward to navigate, and any product is easily searchable. Even more, if you use the app and are a member of the site, the company will sometimes give you free surprise items {think baby and adult personal care items, full size Honest makeup products, a bath towel for your babe, etc.} in your monthly bundle. Can’t go wrong with that! 

WATCH:
Devious Maids!! You guys, I have been a fan of this show since season 1 and it never seems to disappoint. I love it so much and the storylines continue to impress entertain me! Susan Lucci cracks my shit up! And I’m truly invested in all of the characters. The season premier was last week but I caught up on the first two episodes of this season on Wednesday night. Summer TV is the best!!!! On the contrary, what was up with the Bachelorette not airing on Monday? I was so excited to watch and then realized it wasn’t going to be on. Wah wahhhh.

WEAR:
A baby!! JK but how cute is my friend Lisa’s baby Nora?! Answer: the CUTEST!! As is this workout top I’m wearing! It’s my new fave! I bought mine oversized and it’s oh so comfy because of that! You can’t tell in this pic but one of the best parts about it is that it’s suuuuuuper long. Also, you see the gray mesh detail on the top, it’s also on the bottom as well. LOVE! Only $19.99 and comes in four different colors. Buy it here.
