Photo Shoot with Lady and Red

Photo Shoot with Lady and Red

I often forget how important it is to me to have photos like these and my purpose for this shoot was only to update my main blog photo.  If you remember it was a computer screen selfie of Rowan and I when she was a smiling baby and behaved like an angel. πŸ‘Ό Haha! I mean the stress of a photo shoot is overwhelming in itself, right? The clothes, planning, matching, backgrounds, behaviors and of course if it is a good or bad hair day. I know you can relate! But after seeing these photos, my heart skipped a beat, and a lot of emotions surfaced because I actually had to see how big my little girl is getting and how grown up she looks.

Crockpot Chicken Tortilla Soup

Here it is!! Many of you have requested this recipe since I featured it on my Insta-story over on my Instagram @ladyandredstyle. And a huge thank you to the ever so sweet @thestyleduo for sharing my recipe with their followers! If you don't follow the @thestyleduo on IG you should be!  I not only post about style but I secretly love to cook, but let's keep it real, I like it easy! And this recipe couldn't be easier, not to mention super tasty! If you have a few seconds in the morning before work, errands or play, you can make this soup! I seriously modify this soup every time I make it because I may or may not have everything in the cabinet but it still turns out amazing! Adjust it to your taste too!

Terrifying Three's

Terrifying Three's

You may have heard of the terrible twos or the three-nagers, but I am going to call it the terrifying threes, because that is exactly what it is to me. If you have a 2 year old then you should quit reading because I do not want to scare you, but if you are in the terrifying three stage or past it, you will hopefully relate, and if not, tell me so I can get her help because clearly I am not the problem!
