3 things on my mind…
I ‘m a fan of the slip dress as shown HERE & HERE. This is the first dress I’ve purchased that came as a set. As in, the blouse under came with the dress! Double the value. I first posted about this dress on Friday 5.

1. We’re expecting another big storm today that will last through the weekend. I can’t believe the amount of rain California has received this past month. Much needed for sure! Our family is headed for a staycation at the Four Seasons in Carlsbad tomorrow through Sunday. The rain won’t stop us from having a great time together!
2. I went to the doctor yesterday for my routine checkup. The baby is doing great, lots of movement! I’ve gained a few extra pounds this month. Ugh.. I told you here last week how much weight I had gained so far. Now add 4 more to that number.. gulp. I had a nice long talk with myself driving home from my appt. I gain a lot, but always lose the weight. Stop stressing. Pretty sure I repeated those words till I got off the freeway.
3. I’m planning to have a bunch of posts ready to go in the next few weeks so I can heal and spend a couple of weeks enjoying my new baby with Jeff and the girls. I’d love to know what you’re interested in seeing: recipes, beauty, baby products, etc. Please leave a comment or email me if you have any requests: lisa@lunchpailsandlipstick.com

I agree with recipes! And I also love the beauty products, but I won’t lie, I tend to be most interested in the stuff that is not sponsored, and I can tell you truly love!! 🙂
Well that’s good since 80-90% of our posts are not sponsored! Okay, recipes and beauty it is. Thank you for supporting our site and for the recommendations. Have a great weekend!

A step by step hair tuitorial on how you get such great curls!!
I’ve said for so long I’m going to do this one. I actually posted video on here with my hair girl Rissa about 3 years ago. I still do the same method. I need to do an updated version though. Good idea! XXO lisa
Recipes and beauty secrets or best beauty buys?!
Enjoy that baby girl and be nice to yourself!
Great ideas, I’ll for sure do some beauty posts. Thanks for stopping by. XXO lisa
I’ve loved the recipes you’ve shared, so more of those would be great! I’d love to see house updates since it sounds like you’ve been re-doing stuff & it’s looked so cute in the background of pictures.
For sure recipes! I have a few in mind…

I totally understand how you feel. I’m 4 months preg with our second daughter. I’m fairly petite while not pregnant. Gained about 45lbs with my first & getting larger now everyday. I don’t like carrying so much extra weight. It’s really hard on me. All for a good cause though! But, mentally, it wreaks havoc on me too. I know it’ll come off in time though. Best of luck to you!
Congrats on your pregnancy! It is mentally tough for sure. There’s always that fear that for some reason the weight won’t go away, haha.
Thanks for taking the time to comment. Have a great night! XXO lisa
you still do not look pregnant, not sure where the weight is going. You look great!
Love the outfit too
That’s nice to say. The least amount is in my stomach. Legs, bum, face and arms. It’s there. I just do my best to hide it. 😉
