This post isn't about public speaking prep. Nor am I wearing leather. But I am wearing red and yellow and layers, which in summer amounts to around the same thing.

Of course, now that it's officially summer, we're that much closer to summer fits on The Tote Trove timeline.

Because with all the schlepping and shopping and, yes, oversharing, things move a little more slowly here. 😏

A balloon bouquet to brighten your day.

This Memorial Day weekend, I was excited to celebrate with Charlotte (and, yes, parade some patriotic fits). I took her on our first solo shopping trip, which was, of course, to Kohl's, and then the husband and I took her on her inaugural trip to Red Robin. We wrapped it all up with a BBQ at my parents', and a good -- albeit exhausting -- time was had by all, especially Charlotte. Next up: Char Bar's first birthday party.

Which will be a whole new level of exciting -- and exhausting. But mostly exciting. 😁

Racing Rainbows

Sweater: Pink Republic, Kohl's; Skirt: ModCloth

Bag: Kate Spade

Shoes: Mix No. 6, DSW

Somehow, it was St. Patrick's Day. It all went by in such a blur that I felt like I wasn't chasing, but racing, rainbows. Because as I often say, parenthood is like running a race that I'm always losing. And I say parenthood instead of motherhood because the husband feels the same way. There's just so much to do, and you can't do it all, so you do the best you can. That said, those rainbows sometimes remain somewhat within reach. And on March 17, they took the form of this pic of our little family.

And also of me as a leprechaun lady. 🍀🌈
