Friday Faves–Nordstrom Anniversary Sale Edition

Happy Friday, y’all! I’m so sad to say that this is my last Friday of summer because I start back to school on Monday. Okay, that’s all I’m going to say about that LOL

Because of everything going on, Nordstrom has revamped their sale and changed a few things. I’m always super excited about the sale every year but this year feels different. I don’t want to buy a ton of fall clothes because who knows if we will still be in school fall or winter?? So I’ve decided I’m buying necessities that I need and comfy clothes!

I bought this Barefoot Dreams cardigan from my first ever sale a few years ago!!

This year, they previewed the sale online early and you could save your things to a wish list to be able to (hopefully) purchase when your day opens up. I wanted to share my wish list with y’all in case you see something you may want!

Who doesn’t need a comfy pair of new pjs that are CHEAP!!

And these are so cute, too!!

These joggers will be nice to throw on this fall and winter if I don’t want to wear leggings.

Okay, this I absolutely LOVE and I’m going to be really sad if it sells out before I can buy it August 10th!

I also need a few new bras and I’ve heard this brand is awesome. It’s also almost half off, too.

This one has a little bit more coverage, and I like how the straps are a little thicker but not huge.

I thought it would be fun to have a few new lip glosses when I’m not wearing a mask LOL!

If you’re shopping the sale, what are some things you’ve got on your list?

What I Wore When I….BECAME A MOTHER!

Last week I started a new series on my blog, What I Wore When I…, and it was such a hit! It’s been so fun for me to come up with different post ideas, too. You can check out last week’s post here AND I realized last Wednesday that I still had that dress in my closet so I shared it on my stories that afternoon (follow me @saraheshaneyfelt).

Today I’m sharing What I Wore When I Became a Mother, and spoiler alert: I still have that outfit too haha!

Here’s what I wore on Saturday, March 2–the day Dustin and I met our son!

It may not look like it, but I put a lot of thought into what I was going to wear that day. If you were here when it happened, you know I had to pack in a hurry before hopping on a plane the next morning. I love dressing for a theme so I chose a top that was mostly blue. I knew we’d be meeting Harrison’s birth parents so I wanted to look nice for them, but I also knew we’d be in a hospital for a while (I think we were there around 8 hours that day before we went home) which is why I chose my most comfortable pair of jeans.

It ended up being great that I chose that top because I had no idea that I’d get to do skin to skin with Harrison. The NICU at that hospital was actually under construction so we were in a makeshift NICU with zero space and privacy so they had to put a little partition around me. This top has two buttons that I was able to unbutton and slip Harrison down because if you remember, he was born tiny–weighing 4 lb 7oz and was 17in long–so he fit right down my top!

A Weekend Full of Celebrations

It’s been a fun weekend! Saturday was Dustin’s birthday and then Sunday was our anniversary! This year’s celebrations were definitely different because of the pandemic, but we made the most of it.

Harrison and I hung around the house Friday (like we do every day lol) because Dustin had yard work he needed to get done. My sister just got back from Cape Cod and while she was there, she took a day trip to Nantucket and picked up Harrison a sweater! I cannot wait to dress him this fall in this sweater!

Saturday night some of my family came over for Dustin’s birthday. We ate earlier in the week with his family. My mom was out of town and my brother in law was still stuck at work so it was just my sister and dad! I went through some extra party supplies that I had and decided last minute that Dustin would have a football themed birthday haha! I love themed parties 🙂 Dustin grilled burgers, sausages, and corn, and we had chips and potato salad, too.

I had been waiting all day for a slice of this cake! If you live in this area, you know where this cake came from 😉

Happy 35th birthday, Dustin!!!

Yesterday was our sixth anniversary and it was the weirdest one yet! We honestly did nothing special because Harrison was with us all day AND this is just such a weird time. Dustin worked outside again and then we ordered pizza for supper (Harrison’s favorite haha!!). I realized after Harrison went to bed that we hadn’t taken one photo that day–that’s what it’s like parenting a toddler who is all over all the time ha!
