Wrong side

Man, I feel like I woke up on the wrong side of the bed this morning.  And it's silly too, I got one of the best night sleeps last night that I've had in awhile - but maybe that is the problem!  Anyone else ever get that?  You're almost more tired from sleeping well?  Anyway, I decided the fix to my crankiness was to wear my favorite maxi dress of all time.  


In other better news, the water situation at home is improving by the day.  Mr. Monkey bought a better dehumidifier on the way home last night and it seems like things are finally starting to dry out.  Thank goodness for that!  We are getting more storms later tonight it sounds like and then we're finally heading for a dry stretch, so maybe we'll be able to address the area of the yard that caused us to get water in the first place!

 Shirt - Old Navy, thrifted
Dress- Merona, Target
Necklace - DIY by me
Sandals - Marshalls


The other thing I think will help cheer me up will be getting a haircut.  It's been only four weeks since my last one, but let me tell you, the thing about prenatal vitamins doing amazing things for your hair and nails?  Partly true in my case.  My nails still suck, but my hair is a hot mess - it grows so fast right now!  I suppose this would be the perfect time to grow it out if I really wanted to, but I've done the long hair thing before and it just doesn't work on me.  Anyway, I can't go until tomorrow but I know I'll be much happier after I go - get rid of this Justin Bieber look!

  2. I love that dress! I hope your day gets better - and that if we do get more rain, it doesn't get more water in your basement.

  4. Your comment about the Justin Bieber was funny :) Obviously I have been out of the loop with your water situation. I am so behind on blog reading. Hopefully you get everything taken care of. Although you woke up on the wrong side of the bed, you can't tell. I love the way you tied your shirt over the maxi dress. Super adorable! Heather

  7. Oh you look so pretty! I am glad the flood situation is clearing up! I rained earlier, I was really hoping for a storm, but nothing. I totally feel you on the hair! Since it got warmer, it grows 2x as fast!

  8. Your baby bump is starting to show, pretty in pink! Sorry to hear about the water problem, we also have a dehumidifier in our basement, it's crazy how much water it collects!

  10. Ah yes, a maxi dress can cure a multitude of ills, haha. They are just so comfy! I totally know what you mean about more sleep making you feel worse sometimes. One of life's great mysteries. This pink color is so lovely on you! Really fresh for summer (you know, if we ever get any of that season ;) )

  12. Oh I was in-love with my hair when I was prego. It takes that 6 weeks after you have the baby to gradually realize it is changing back to the pre-prego state. I love how you paired the sheer long-sleeve blouse over the dress. Cool idea! Thanks. Yes, doggie is much more comfortable.
