it's not what it looks like

Tuesday, June 12

On a day like today, when it's cloudy and rainy outside, and our water has been shut off because our landlord forgot to pay our water bill, and I've been on hold all morning with the Official Department of Unpleasantness {unrelated to the water unfortunately} ... pictures of a sunny Saturday at the pool are just plain stupid. If I was to post an actual picture of today, it would look something like me with a phone to my shoulder, brushing my teeth with a water bottle while fire darts shoot out of my eyes. Everett however, would still be just as serious. A sunny day at the pool with your favorites... a cloudy day with no running water while you wait on the phone for the rest of your life ... same diff.
Hakuna matata!!

P.S. Speaking of swimsuits {not that we were}, click HERE to see my favorites right now!

Ok, you can't post a picture of you in that swimsuit and not say where it's from because it's adorable!

June 12, 2012 10:38 AM

babies know what's best :)

love the swimsuit!

June 12, 2012 10:38 AM

@the life of us Oh yeah! The bottoms are from Free People, the top is H&M and the cover up is from Shop Mamie!

June 12, 2012 10:39 AM

Sydney, you look SMOKIN'! Please do a post on your excercise routine!

For the Record

June 12, 2012 10:39 AM

No running water is enough to drive a sane person mad. Your suit, on the other hand, is to die for.

June 12, 2012 10:40 AM

I hope you get your water sorted soon! I love your swimsuit!! Where is it from? x

June 12, 2012 10:41 AM

I agree with Olga - fill us in on your exercise routine!!

Ugh... what a nightmare! Dream of sunny days indeed.

June 12, 2012 10:46 AM

oh what a bummer about the water! hopefully it will be flowing again soon. We use to loose water for days after a hurricane, no bueno.

June 12, 2012 10:47 AM

Sorry about your water! Your day at the pool looks lovely all the same! Here's hoping that things get sorted out quickly and tomorrow is better!

June 12, 2012 11:03 AM

Does he just love the water?! Love these pictures. Sorry you've had to deal with all that.

June 12, 2012 11:06 AM

so sorry to hear that!! we were without water for a WEEK a few months ago. luckily our neighbors (whom we just met the day we lost our water) gave us keys to their newly-renovated and unrented apartment to use the loo and the shower. lucky ducks, we were! our neighbor upstairs went to the gym, so if you don't have friendly neighbors, keep the gym in mind!! definitely not ideal, but it would work!

hope it comes back soon!

cheers..

June 12, 2012 11:08 AM

totally gorgeous pictures! I am adoring those sunglasses!

Thank goodness for the good days so we can get through the bad. But I would love for you to stand up so we could all get a look at your swimsuit.

June 12, 2012 3:10 PM

haha aw no, that's horrible! i'd just splash around in the pool all day until it got fixed- weekends aren't meant for stressing :)

June 12, 2012 3:15 PM

Water, water everywhere and not a drop to drink? Haha oh gosh how annoying! But these pics look fun anyway, even if not quite reflective of your day :)

Hey Sydney! So I've been a big reader of your blog for a couple years now, and I'm trying to do something special on mine, and I would LOVE to write to you! So check this out! http://perfectlypriya.blogspot.com/2012/06/giveaway-of-sorts.html

June 13, 2012 1:22 PM

Love your swimsuit top! And Everette's serious face...too much cuteness. :)

June 13, 2012 6:16 PM

Love the striped cover up! :)

June 13, 2012 7:34 PM

Even though I am very sad to hear about your water situation (must be so annoying) and all. I am still in awe at how your stomach is so flat after popping out a baby not too long ago. And even though you can barely see your stomach from that photo but whatever, this just pushes me to stop being lazy and get that six pack! Go Sydney Go! :)

June 13, 2012 8:00 PM

Loving the coverup and looking for some for my honeymoon - where did you snag that?

Happy Wednesday!

June 14, 2012 9:50 AM

A. How cute is your family?
B. Those sunglasses on Everett? Awesome.
C. Sometimes going without something we are so used to having can be a good thing.

Hope everything was made better.

June 15, 2012 1:34 PM

Everett is too adorable in those sunglasses!!! And I love love love your bathing suit! :)
