A Series of Letters.

Dear Target,

Footy Pajamas are cute on babies. Footy Pajamas are creepy on adults.



Love,
Whitney

Dear Husby,

You look like a giant Ralphie from A Christmas Story. Please do not ever purchase and/or wear these pajamas. If you do, I may need to reevaluate my life. And you may need to reevaluate yours.



P.S. Those granny panties behind you are....well....there are no words. But I bet they're comfy.

Love,
Whitney

Dear Ree,

Your cookbook is absolutely amazing. And you are wonderful.



Congrats on the success! It is much coveted....er, I mean... deserved.

:)

Love,
Whitney

Dear Weebie,

Santa called and said since you have been so good this year, he is making you an honorary reindeer! Levi the Red Cheeked Reindeer.



Don't you recall, the most handsome reindeer of all....?

Love,
Mommy

Dear Bloggie Friends,

I like to let on to my friends, family and blogging community that Levi's crib always looks like this:



But in all actuality, right now it really looks like this:



Hey it's what the changes in a baby will do to ya! A breathable bumper pad for my flip flop sleeper and a ghetto mobile to keep him entertained. But his pretty bumper pads are just an arms reach away to slap back in when company comes. ;) No shame.

Love,
Whitney

Dear Miley,

I think it's really cool you partnered with Max Azria for your clothing line. But I think the look you were going for here should have been a little more cowgirl and a little less....paper shredder. But ya know, whatevs.



Love,
Whitney

***

Dear Levi,

Speaking of cowgirls....you should have been a cowboy.



And maybe I could have named you Wrangler instead of Levi. Just a thought.

Love,
Mommy

***

Dear God,

Thank You for the beautiful colors you paint across the sky for me. And thank you for my neighborhood that you paint them over.



Love,
Whitney

***

Dear Target (Again),

I love the vast array of cabbie hats and fedoras in your men's section. Husby really appreciates it, too. I just wish you had a similar wall of baby cabbie hats and fedoras so that I could put Levi in a new one every day. You should do it.



Think about it and get back with me. K? Thanks.

Love,
Whitney

***

Dear German Chocolate Cake,

I want to eat you in your entirety. In one sitting.



Love,
Whitney

(Recipe coming soon...)

***

Dear Weebie (Again),

Please stop growing.



Love,
Mommy

Pictures brought to you from my iPhone, so I'm sorry for the lame quality. :)
I am a modern day homemaker with a passion for family, cooking, celebrating, decorating, travel, and memory making! The Lord has blessed me with the desires of my heart in my husband and our two sons. We recently built our dream home and cultivating a loving and happy haven for my family is where I find so much joy.

  1. Fun Post. And I am thrilled that you are sharing your Momzies GC Cake Recipe. I seriously about fell over the last time I took a bite. I need to recreate it.

  2. Love this post! Too funny! I can't believe Target is selling footie pajamas either! Last weekend one of the bar's in my college town hosted a pj party & people actually wore those footie pajamas... to the bar!

  3. Why am I just now finding out that your mom has a GC Cake recipe? Hmmm. I want it. Footie pajamas for adults are very creepy. Granny panties are comfortable. Weebie is just about the most photogenic baby I have ever seen.

  4. Little Levi is so cute! And that cake ...would so be my breakfast this morning if it was nearby. No shame.

  5. This is such a cute idea for a post...I love it!

  6. Ha, love this post! Fun to read. And...I WILL be showing Russell the picture of your husband in front of numerous pairs of granny panties. Why, oh why, did he choose that spot to model his bunny jammies!??! Hilarious!!

    ReplyDelete
  10. So if I buy footie pajamas for Chris, it's a bad idea? Guess it's back to the drawing board for Christmas gifts....

    ReplyDelete
  11. Love this post...the GC cakes looks delicious! And I love that you shared Levi's nursery in it's real life form. This is what I'm sure most mother's do! :)

  12. I love the reindeer and cowboy hat picture :) Too cute!

  13. "I would have named you Wrangler instead of Levi.."

    LOL!!!!

  14. I feel seriously deprived that we don't have those pj's in England (at least I have never seen them.) The underwear thing? We call those 'Bridget Jones's' and wouldn't wear them if you paid us. Levi is beautiful, what a blessing.

    ReplyDelete
  15. so cute! I agree with the baby cabbie hats. My son wants one really bad and I've been searching for a boys one for him. He's a walking candy apple, too like me :) maybe he could wear a men's one. Your baby is getting so big...and adorable in those little reindeer antlers. :)

  16. mmmm german chocolate cake....

    ReplyDelete
  17. Too funny. I agree with the Miley thing. ha.

    Those footie pj's are SCARY!

    Levi is toooo cute!

    ReplyDelete
  18. Footie pj's? I actually have a friend who thinks these are cute and fun. I however, do not agree with her. Ew.

    Levi is SO precious!! ;)

    ReplyDelete
  19. What's with the feetie jammies??? My kids LOVE them. Gross. Like wearing socks to bed. Anything un-sexier?

    ReplyDelete
  20. Ha! I saw those jammies are Target too--and share your feelings on them :)

    ReplyDelete
  21. Hahaha, when I was 20 my mom got me a pair of footsie pajamas. . .I thought they were the greatest things. . .I even wore them to my boyfriend's house. . . .ya. . . .it's one of those things you look back on and cringe. . .

    ReplyDelete
  22. Loved the footie jammies as a kid, but D would certainly not need to wear them!!!!! Loved the pics and your letters. You crack me up! And, the german chocolate cake (my fav) ... where is my huge piece??????

    ReplyDelete
  23. Must. Have. RECIPE!!!! That looks delicious!

    Also, I completely agree about the footie pajamas. Those are atrocious.

    But Levi? Levi is the cutest little thing in the whole wide world. ;)

    ReplyDelete
  24. very cute, and i agree with everything concerning target.

    ReplyDelete
  25. All right, here I am to bring some love for the footie PJs. They are so comfy and cozy. I own a pair with cute purple stars all over them. Are they juvenile? Of course. But sometimes I have those stressful days when I want to feel like a worry- free kid again, and on those days I wear my footie pajamas :) However, I will state that mine are two-piece - there's a shirt and then pants with footies. If that helps at all. lol.

    ReplyDelete
  26. What's even more creepy than say an adult in footie pjs... is an adult like GENE SIMMONS wearing them... it always wigs me out!

    ReplyDelete
  27. Those footy pajamas are too hilarious. hehe.

    ReplyDelete
  28. Cute! And, I just had the same thought about those footie pjs. Ick! THey make me nauseous!

    ReplyDelete
  29. I love your post, the pictures are too funny! I can't decide if I like the reindeer or cowboy look for Levi...and you're right, footie pajamas for adults are just not right!

    ReplyDelete
  30. OMG! Levi is too cute in his antlers!! He is the cutest thing! It makes me want one of my own:)

    ReplyDelete
  31. So cute...the Wrangler vs. Levi...priceless!

    ReplyDelete
  32. I would die with happiness if Target took your suggestion about the hats. They need to go up to toddler sizes!!!

    ReplyDelete
  33. That was a sweet post! I have very similar views as well :-)

    Also, those breathable mesh bumpers are on my baby's crib too. They are great!

    ReplyDelete
  34. footie Pajamas for adults!?!?!??! Oh dear.....

    ReplyDelete
  35. I love these "letters" - what a cute idea!

    ReplyDelete
  36. I love this post! I miss our daily talks. Wanna come back to work??

    ReplyDelete
  37. lol...loved all your letter and I am a bit shamed to admit that I am actually thinking about buying the fottie pajamas! :)

    ReplyDelete
  38. A Christmas Story is my stepdad's favorite movie, and I so wanted to buy him those bunny pj's and wrap them up as a gag gift for Christmas!

    Sock monkeys are creepy. Especially on feetie-pajamas.

    ReplyDelete
  39. LOVE all the letters! so cute!

    hey, you can never go wrong with the handy iphone...yay for always taking pics!
