You say it's your birthday....a week late!


Yeah...I am officially a year older!  31 to be exact!  This was definitely a different type of celebration this year...with my baby girl cooking in my belly, no cocktails and limo buses or wine lofts for me ;-)  But it was a great low key day!  

I think if I had to compose a wish list of some things I would want on my birthday in fantasy land...here is the ultimate daydream...

1. A custom tattoo by Kat Von D
2. A Marc Jacobs hand bag or three ;-)
3. A private jet to take my best friends, hubby and family to private resort all expenses paid
4. A closet the size of my house 
5. A lifetime supply of Jeffrey Campbell shoes
6. Red lipstick in every brand  (a girl can never have enough red)
7. Hair and makeup stylist  (every girl would love this)
8. A chance to personally interview my celeb crushes....to learn more about who these fancies are...read this.
9. Have an apartment to style hair, be creative
10. Never grow old (hehe)

I think that no matter what I am lucky to be a year older and was able to say I am happy, healthy and going to be a mommy!  But we are all able to dream big and stare off into space as to what would be the ultimate birthday wish list!  You all have them!  Let me hear em'

Movin on up....take two!!!!

Hey friends!!!

So I had posted a big announcement a couple days back and had to do a little re arranging!   So here is a take two to keep all my friends in the loop!!

My hubby and I are moving to Madison, Wisconsin in November due to his job!  We are very excited to be embarking on a new journey and since we are both from Michigan we will be so much closer to our families which is a huge plus for our baby girl being due in early January!!!  So, alot on my plate emotionally!   I feel as though every day I am over thinking and stressed just trying to wrap my head around getting everything ready and tying up loose ends.   Daily questions in my head go like this... "Will we be settled in a new home in time before I go into labor"?  "Will I like the new doctor I am going to be seeing so close to the end of my pregnancy"?  "Will I meet new friends with similar interests"?   You get the picture!  I think moving, and having a baby is a big deal considering doing both at the same time...  

I will be extremely sad to say goodbye to some wonderful friends I have made here in good ol' Richmond.  I know the goodbyes are not forever, just so long for now.  So again, this post is dedicated to all my great peeps here in Richmond!  Love you all!!!

Peace and stay tuned for more!

Feeling a little overwhelmed but cannot let that get me down!!!

My lord long time no see my friends!!

I am not going to say sorry for not posting much, because I have read in many blogs and will admit myself that when life is throwing stuff at you, you have to face it and just live it and even though I love posting and sharing with you all, I am going to put my life first and foremost!

First of all, I am happy to know they finally I mean FINALLY chose some actors for the much anticipated "Fifty Shades of Grey" movie.  Let me just say this....I am not overly disappointed.  I really knew they weren't going to pick the actor I wanted most to play Christian  because he is currently involved with the Man of Steel franchise and will be shooting for the second installment next year.  "Henry Cavill, if you are listening...in my heart I know you will always be my Christian Grey ;-)
And this is how I picture him greeting me in the morning....hello my love!!!

Okay, okay back to the topic....I think who they chose for Christian and Ana will probably work out great.  And..I may or may not have indulged in a Sons of Anarchy marathon on Netflix to better prep myself to see Jax transform into Christian...I think he definitely has the potential of portraying Mr. Fifty Shades of F%&cked up!  They just need to prep his look to have some darker hair and features but that is the joy of being in Hollywood.  

For Ana, I am very excited to see this girl take on the character.  I always pictured an Amanda Seyfried esque type face, pale complexion.  I know of course they will darken her hair (thanks to hollywood)  but her features resemble what I have pictured in the books so I think this is a great move!  We shall see.   I am going to say this now.  I never wanted an all star cast.  I wanted actors who are not so sensationalized by post large roles and can actually act, as opposed to just having good looks.  This movie can be ruined by examples such as that!  Not everyone feels that way but who the hell cares!!


On a different note...there are some crazy changes going on right now in my life again!  Not bad at all but again I am going to be cryptic and annoying because not all is panned out and I do not want to disclose too much that could potentially cause any more craziness in my marriage or household, so stay tuned my loves!!!


Love you all,
Dinah xo
