Who Needs Me...I Do!!

Today was Alex's first day of pre-school.  He has been going for 1 1/2 years now, so it is not that big of a deal him going to school.  But, since it was his first day this year, and we made a big deal about Jack's first day, I tried to make him feel special.

 Alex picks out his own clothes...today he wanted his fancy car shirt (he thinks anything with a collar is fancy) and button shorts!

He wanted a first day photo in front of his locker.  a little clingy when we first walked into the room, Alex warmed up quite quickly and soon ran off to find the blocks to build a race track.  Since today was a shorted class day, most of the parents were staying for the two hours...but, I had not planned too...he was totally ok with that.  When it was rug time, he sat down, gave me a kiss and hug and said bye, go to work now.

I have decided, to stay within my budget for my fall wardrobe, I am only going to buy a few key pieces of clothing...about 30% the budget...the rest, I plan to spend on accessories.  I think I can remix my current fall wardrobe and jazz it up with new jewelry, a great pair of black casual boots and i am hunt the hunt for a medium sized burgundy handbag.  The two necklaces I styled today are some of my new fall purchases.  Bought in two different places...H&M and Forever 21...and two different times, I thought they would compliment each other by layering to form more of a bib style.  Another new purchase is the fabulous bow bracelet.
