Ramblings and other things
Makeup Papers, a review
Do you listen to music when you are working on a project? My sister does and while she helped decorate my house and I was reminded about how nice it is.
So I’ve got Pandora running in the background while I write this but I’m not a great multitasker so if a random word pops into this post it’s because I heard it while I was typing.
I don’t think I ever told you that I almost officially wrote Justin’s full name as Justin Bingo on Luke’s official hospital paperwork? Did I?
I had forgotten to fill out the forms online week after week after week and finally I decided to just do it one day while David sat on my 36 week pregnant lap at the computer. Well, after many attempts to block him from pulling off the “n” key from the keyboard, I just opened a new window of YouTube and searched for “kid nursery rhymes” and Bingo came up.
So he’s immediately engulfed in the video and I begin filling out the information online. “And bingo is his name-o” plays in the background and when I check over the final draft before I hit submit I realize I literally wrote the word Bingo in for Justin’s last name.
Luke, welcome to the world. Your father’s name is Justin Bingo. Don’t be concerned.
Since I find things exponentially more funny when I pregnant I’m pretty sure I laughed for a good hour or so about that, and decided I should fill out that important paperwork when I can focus entirely on it.
Sometimes the simple things become the greatest struggle with little chitterlings*.
In other news, I’ve been wearing Butter London’s Ladybird on my toe nails for the past month and I haven’t been thisΒ committed to a color other than grey for awhile.
I feel like I’m finally coming up from basically drowning in travel, moving, travel, visitors, unpacking, cleaning, mom-ing, and getting settled in the new house. I love being busy, I love having visitors, I love mom-ing**, I do not love moving, I do not love unpacking.
Mr. Bingo is preparing for his climb up Mt. Kilimanjaro soon despite being struck down with Mono. Yeah, he has mono. So far I’m in the clear but I’m certain I’ll start coming down with symptoms the day or two before he leaves. Murphy’s law reigns true in my life with that sort of thing. But really, I hope he’s back at 100% come August so he’ll feel good about the climb!
Anyway, just wanted to chime in with a little life update. I read an article yesterday about how blogs were shifting away from the personal stuff and it compelled me to share more of my personal albeit rather boring stuff because that is what I love about blogs.
Lastly, I have a giveaway from one of my favorite small businesses. I discovered Allisa Jacobs years ago and have a bunch of her products! Her fabric choices are perfection and the quality is fantastic. She has some new items in her shop and I’m excited to be giving one of you a chance to win a mini gift pack from her!
The winner will receive an organizer, a checkbook cover and a large bag. The bag is great for makeup but can be used for just about 1 million other reasons as well. And the best news? You can pick whatever fabric print you would like! Enter by using the giveaway tool below! Open internationally!
a Rafflecopter giveaway
Have a wonderful weekend and I’ll see you Monday with a new hair tutorial!
*a word Justin uses to refer to the children aka chit’lins that I just learned the proper definition of. Sorry ’bout calling you that, boys.
**the drama is in full force over here in the Bingo household. 1.5 years old has proven to be full of testing boundaries and literal meltdowns. I know why they call them meltdowns now because David literally melts to the floor as if I’ve crushed his entire soul by telling him he cannot play with the power drill. It’s like he’ll never find another toy. Nothing will ever satisfy his being agai—::runs excitedly over to shopping cart and shrieks with joy:: Yeah he’s fine.

What a lovely give away! Such beautiful products for making the day seem just a bit more special! THANK YOU for writing “personal” posts. I’m so sad that many of my favorite bloggers are shifting away from writing about their actual life. That is the piece that keeps it interesting, and the piece that makes me love the blog world. I love hearing the human life things as it all makes us realize we are human and share so much with each other that is the same! Sorry to hear about the meltdowns- take it day by day, it will pass all in due time, and then you’ll be dropping them off at college!
They are all so pretty but I love the mint ikat fabric!

The linen & lace or the chevrons are beautiful!
I absolutely love your blog! I have read it for years and I have loved following your journey into motherhood and then throughout. Your snapchat stories, instaposts, and tweets crack me up sometimes! Thanks for being so dedicated to your blog!
The grey dot fabric is awesome… and the pink arrow fabric!
Love the bag and can’t wait to try the polish!
Beautiful bags! I’m going to pass the link onto a couple of my brides looking for bridesmaid gifts!

Thanks for continuing to write through this busy-season, Kate! So enjoy tuning into your life for a few minutes every day π
I love reading your blog!
Its so awesome that Justin is climbing Kilamanjaro- it sits near the top of my bucket list, right under overcoming my fear of heights :-0 But regarding David’s meltdowns- have you seen “reasons my son is crying”. I found it on pinterest a while ago but apparently its a book now- completely hysterical and something you can no doubt relate to.
I’m loving the Aztec fabric. So cute!
Also, I can’t tell you how much our lives are alike. My son was born Dec. 21, 2013 and my daughter Jan. 23, 2015. AND my husband was just diagnosed with mono as well. Absurd.
love her items… thank you for a chance to win!! π
These are beautiful patterns.
I love the personal stuff too. Keep it coming. I would love to win the bags/checkbook cover. Super cute!
I love the peach and navy Aztec print! Actually, I love them all!
Ohhh…these are so cool! I love the navy ikat and gray polka dot. It would be great to win!
Too many cute fabrics to choose! I love the chevrons and the Aztec print….but really, there are so many more!
This is my first time commenting and entering into a give away and I of course think I did it wrong! For some reason I couldn’t figure out how to leave a comment on the ticker thing at the top…. anyways…. I LOVE the Peach and Mint Aztec Fabric!! And keep up the wonderful posts, Kate! I just found your blog a few days ago and I am hooked! In the future, do you have any hair updos and tips for us ladies who have fine, flat, and thin hair?!
I love to read your blog posts — no matter what they are about. π I’m not married and I don’t have kids, but your humor and outlook on life just gets to me. I definitely look forward to checking in with the Bingos every once in a while. π Thanks for what you do!
All of the fabrics are beautiful! I especially like the multicolor chevron and floral patterns!
All the fabrics are gorg! And I enjoy reading more personal things aometimes, thanks for sharing with us!
So cute!
I would love a chance at this wonderful giveaway. I love being organized. I love checking in with you everyday. The boys are just to cute for words. My days of little ones are long gone (except for my 8 year old grandson) but I find I get insight into my two daughters by following your blog. Plus I love makeup and all that is girly. So this is a perfect read for me. Thanks for the chance at this giveaway.
So cute! I love hearing stories like these!
Love the gray polka dots! Simple, classy, and cute!
Thank you for your wonderful blog and this chance to win just beautiful pieces!
Her fabrics are gorgeous! I love the pinky-purple chevron/arrow kind of pattern.
I love the grey polka dots with the white background and the green/mint on the inside. Can’t really tell the difference this early in the morning!
Hope Justin feels better soon!
I love the grey clutches with deep purple flower accents and the bag that has multiple colors in a pattern that reminds me of Native American fabrics.
Blogs that are about everyday life are my favorites. Its nice to see others going through the same season of life, and it gives hope to those who think their lives with kids might be a little crazy. LOL.
This post made me laugh out loud several times. Gotta love the meltdowns. Have you seen the posts where people take photos of why their kids are crying? (Similar to the dog shaming trend) I have mixed feelings on whether or not it’s mean or just wrong, but man some of them are hysterical.
I love several of the floral fabrics in Alissa’s shop!
Hope Mr Bingo is feeling 100% soon and that you don’t get it!!! Have a great weekend!
LOVE the mint herringbone! Thanks for giving us a fun update of your life- can’t wait to meet you on Monday!

Thanks, Kate for always putting together great giveaways!

Love love the teal and gold chevron!!

Hi Kate,
I would have laughed for an hour too! Help a woman out please- I go to the gym a lot and every time I go to put on my makeup everything always looks blotchy, uneven, or overall not right. Never had this problem till all the sweating involved in the gym. Used to use bare minerals, but it would look all cracked and show every line. Then been trying this liquid foundation that is doing the same thing! HELP PLEASE!!
I love the peach and gold arrow fabric! I would use the bag as a knit project bag. Also, I now have Bingo stuck in my head.
Love the Ikat! I seem to be in love with deep purple and anything navy blue these days. New to her shop but found I love the fabrics. Thanks for a chance to win!
I love the navy and pink floral, which is weird for me. I’m not usually a pink person. But when mixed with navy, yes please! Or the ones with lace overlay.
Thank you for sharing your personal life, Kate! I love that part π
I love personal blog posts! I love the blogs about products but the personal blogging connects readers to the authors. It also lends a “I’m not alone” feeling to whatever you are reading. I love the coral chevron and the pink and navy floral patterns at AllisaJacobs.
I love all the prints. Especially the floral! They are so pretty!
I’m new around here but I’m already crazy about your blog! And thanks for this giveaway opportunity! Love the Aztec print for large bag, Navy Ikat for checkbook, and the Mint and Coral Floral for the organizer.
I love the gray dot- perfect for all year round!
I adore the aztec print! Also, glad I’m not the only one who can’t listen to music while typing – I’ve found random words in my papers more times than I’d like to admit, thank goodness for proofreading!
And P.S. PLEASE keep posting stuff about your life, it’s really one of the things I love most about your blog!!
I’m pretty bad about multitasking with music too, so I completely understand the whole Justin Bingo mishap! I love the pattern of that makeup bag. It’s so cute!
Your personal posts are my favorite! I love the little excerpt at the end about David’s meltdowns, cuz my eighteen month old daughter has also just entered meltdown stage, and my 3.5 year old son is STILL in that stage… but I still love being their mom. π
Also, thanks for the giveaway! So fun!
Mint and coral floral

All of the fabric chooses are very cute! Love the coral chevron!

Hope Mr. Bingo feels well soon and that Mrs. Bingo doesn’t come down with Mono and have to take care of the chitterlings all alone. I too have a 1.5 year old that literally melts to the floor. Sorry it’s happening to you but so glad that I am not in this boat alone. It happens over the most random things ever.
Please keep giving us updates on your personal life. I think it’s what keeps a lot of us coming back. π

I enjoyed your post! I completely relate with writing what you’re hearing! I cannot talk and type or listen and type at the same time! And so far my first 2 children I found a mistake on the paperwork.. AFTER it was submitted. Ahh!! Anyway, I really like the white with random gray dots and a couple of the other gray florals. Beautiful!
The peach and coral bag clutch is adorable!
Thanks!
Nicole K.
Navy ikat! Obsessed with it. Great blog post today too. π Happy weekending!
So many beautiful choices but I love the gray/purple and anything with polka dots!!
I love all the beautiful patterned fabrics. As well as the grey linen finish fabric – really classy but low key.
I LOVE the grey/Aqua chevron!! The colors are so modern and soothing! π
Peach and coral!
I love so many of the fabrics!! I would be happy to win any of them!!
I really love fabrics number 7, 14, and 20! Especially 20. π
I love the navy and pink floral and the pink arrows. Thank you for the giveaway!
I used to nanny for a 2 year old that had meltdowns just like that! As frustrating as it is, this stage will pass quickly, and you’ll find yourself missing the excitement π Also, anything peach or coral is an A+ in my book!
I love all the patterns but 1&2 are my favorites!
I love all of her fabrics but my favorite is probably #20 that she has listed on the options photo on her Etsy site. Beautiful work!
Loving that organizer! Her fabrics are gorg!
I love grey and I love polka dots so the grey polka dot fabric is an obvious choice π
Love all the choices! The Aztec and Navy and Pink floral are definitely favorites!
How can anyone ever decide with all the great fabric?!
I had to comment about the mono……
I recently had it from November 2014 to February 2015 (yes…THREE MONTHS!)
I had to go on an extended sick leave from work and it was terrible.
My husband and two-year-old never got it, but I was very careful to not kiss, share utensils, etc. My doctor thinks I picked it up from my daughter or her daycare. Kids can get mono, but it’s very, very mild and often mistaken for a common virus or cold.
By the beginning of February, I was starting to feel a bit better, so my family ended up going on a planned vacation to Florida. Lemme tell you…..Orlando with a two-year-old nearly did me in! The thought of climbing Mt. Kilimanjaro after mono seems terrifying to me! Make sure hubs gets cleared for travel/climbing by a doctor. After we got home from Florida, I needed a few more weeks to recuperate because it seriously set me back.
The good news…..mono seemed to kick my immune system in overdrive and I have been healthy as can be since…..not a sniffle or a cough! The body does weird things!
#monoisnojoke, lol!
Love the pink and navy tribal. Also the grey, yellow, and light blue chevron!

I’m simple… I love the combo of mint and the grey/white polka dot! I listen to music while grading, otherwise I’d get lost in the la-la land of my own thoughts.

Ooooooh, I love that checkbook cover in the Grey Colorblock!
Ok, this is for Mr. Bingo. If he is going to hike Kili from the Tanzania side there is a GREAT hotel at the base in Himo, called Africa Flower Hotel. I stayed there for a week and it is WONDERFUL!!!!!!!!!!!!! Great food, it is like staying at a 5 star hotel. Here is the link http://africanflowerhotel.com/
Also, the best and most trustworthy driver Is Mr. Mongi. Elizabeth with the African Flower Hotel can give you his number. He is a driver, he will pick you up from the airport, and take you to the Marangu gate.
Most hotels and drivers will prefer to be paid in USD. Also, make sure your bills are crisp and newer than 2006. Best bet is to ask your bank for 2009 or newer. TRUST ME! They check the year on the bills. Also, go through Amsterdam. It is the nicest airport and the staff are very nice to Americans.
Malaron is the safest anti-malaria pill. I can say from experience that you do have very vivid dreams. Nothing scary, just very real.
I just came back from Tanzania last week. If you have any other questions email me I would be happy to answer any questions.
I love the fabrics in the pictures you posted. Blue floral is really pretty, too. π

I went to her site and man alive does she have lots of fabric options!!! I want to answer very honestly which is my favorite … I was perusing the different cosmetic bags and there is a “set of three large cosmetic bags”. I was never able to find names of the fabrics (maybe because I’m on my phone and it’s hard to spot the names?) I did see though on one of the pictures a bunch of fabrics, and these had numbers next to them. I REALLY liked number 14! I would be more apt to put makeup on every day if it was in this print of cosmetic bag. π
I love all the florals.
I am loving Aztec patterns lately, but I love me a good stripe, like the Sewing Pattern.
Hi Kate,
Long time reader but first time comment-er. π I’ve got a boy a few months younger than David and yes, the meltdowns are serious business. Thank you for sharing the personal details- it reassures this mama’s heart that we’re in this together. Nolin prefers to hurl himself on the ground when he can’t go outside or when the dog runs away from him.
Hang in there, mama!
Carrie
I love the coral ikat pattern!
Love it all! hope i win!
Ikat in coral & aqua
I love these bags!! I love the Azteca print, the arrows, and the peach and blue! Cannot wait to buy a makeup bag – and – these would make great gifts for my bridesmaids.
I kept on changing my mind about which fabric I liked the most when I looked through her etsy shop. There are so many gorgeous ones, but I really loved the Coral Aqua Ikat and the Peach Coral flower print!
I love the Bold Feathers print and the Pink and Navy Flowers print is a close second π
love the personal posts as it keeps it real. My husband and I had to send in for an amended birth certificate for our daughter as I filled out his birthplace wrong! I’m glad you caught it before you submitted!
The fabrics are great, so pretty and fresh. I wish I could buy several of these and make a quilt. Yeah, right one day maybe.
I had an aunt that called us all “The Chirren”. Until we were 30! and had our own chirren.
I love, love, love the coral and blue, mint Aztec, and pink arrows patterns! I’ll definitely be looking around her shop later π

Love the navy ikat-so classic!
The metallic gold chevron pattern caught my eye.
I don’t know if you’ll get a chance to read this but your story about the paperwork made me giggle.
I did something similar with my youngest. I was rocking him in the bassinet with a foot, keeping sprout on heavy rotation for my 3 year old while designing said youngest birth announcement. Proofread them, approved them a second time, shared with husband who also approved – received them and then sent all 50 of them out… With a birth year of 2 years prior….
I LOVE all the personal posts! It’s what makes your blog seem like real life, plus i love hearing about the boys,my two are slightly older and it’s fun to see the age differences!
