These Are a Few of My Favorite Things

Who is so over winter??

I feel like after Christmas spring should be next. 

Baby C has started walking, hide your car(keys) hide  your wipes, he's running into everything around here. Last night he got the vaseline that was sitting on the end table and in two point five seconds he had got it open and both hands fully engulfed in it. 

Currently loving:

All things Mickey Mouse, decided to first birthday in this theme (When have I liked themes?!?) and have gone full obsesso on it. Ordered: matching mommy and daddy outfits for the party and well as mickey earrings for myself?! 

J.Crew(always) But especially this new shirt I got!

That is all for now.

SNOW day

Since Going back to school, I love when it snows and school is called off..

Just looked and it's sold out :( 

Now, I get to catch up on some homework.. or write a post, ya know priorities. 

This is our first snow of the season, and baby couldn't care less about it, thank goodness. I will enjoy this year because I know next he will be begging to be out in it, brrr. It's to cold for me. 

But I did get this great new coat at J.Crew Factory for $80!! So if I do go out, I'll look cute.

Still Surviving

So I skipped a whole month, whoops, my bad.

So my guy is almost 9 months, and I still feel like I'm just surviving most days? Can other mommies relate, or is mine just an overly demanding child? There are still days I can not go to the bathroom without having to carry a child in there with me.
He is super active and he has recently discovered the stairs.
Exhausted is the word of the day-ereday.

Yesterday I had to go to the bathroom, the one that takes a little longer than the other, and I hear the dog food bowl, I rush into the kitchen to find dog food all over and he already had a piece in his mouth, yikes. I couldn't get it out, so he ate it. Bad mom award right herrre.

The weather was beautiful this weekend, We wasted time between naps outside, walking around. We actually went to the park and he fell asleep half way through so I did another lap around the park. I always have awkward conversations in my head with people that I see. I know it's weird, but while walking I kept passing the same people who were going the opposite way but after awhile I get enough nerve to say something as I pass by them(after just smiling at them about 5 or 6 times). Today after passing by a lady a few times, as she was approaching I YELLED "Wow, we are really burning calories today" for her only to smile at me and me realize her headphones were cranked up loud. Fail.

Christmas List

I can not believe it is already Christmas! Like ONE. WEEK. Away. Who is done with their shopping?? 

That would not include me. I found it quite difficult to do shopping with a 7 month old. Who want to put up with all those crowds anyway. Let alone with a baby in tow. 

So I did most of my shopping online this year, and they better get here before Christmas! 

I was going for more "unique" gifts this year and bought some things off Etsy.(But it also means unreliability on when it's going to get here.

4 days until they have to be here.

Anyhow, here are some my picks for Christmas stuff.(Stuff that I'm getting or have already).

Okay, okay, I'm going to admit I am a teeny tiny bit obsessed with all things JCrew. I hate it. I also hate that everyday their things are on sale this time of year BUT...

Turtle necks are back

Let me start off saying I ADORE this tee. haha. No but really, I just saw that the gray is out of stock and had a mini panic attack. But you see that is not necessary, I already have 3 of the gray and two of the white. I love the softness and comfort and I got them for only 13.99!!

6 Months

My baby is 6 months old now. Where.Has.The.Time.Gone.

I feel like he has always been here. Like I have always known him. I guess that the funny thing about having a child. They are a part of you before they were even here. 

Days are filled with laughing, playing,  tickling, dancing, and singing. Recently he enjoys watching his mommy dance around like a crazy women to christmas music. I feel like I get to entertain him for a good hour and exercise at the same time! 

He is always smiling, and lets me get things done now, he is ready to walk, like yesterday. 

He has the sitting up thing down and he has started to get in the crawling position from the sitting position. He has changed so much just this last week. He hugs and lifts his hands when wanting to be picked up. My heart is so full.  

I love him deeply and dearly. I'm so blessed.

He hates after bath time while I try to get his clothes on, I usually have to sing "if your happy and you know it" really loud to keep him from crying, he gets frustrated easily if things don't go his way. He still gets bored pretty fast, so we switch from activity to activity throughout the day. Other than that he has turned into a fairly easy child this last month. Crossing fingers it lasts!

Pumpkin Patch

Did I tell you how much I love fall?? 

We had such fun time as a family at the pumpkin patch.

We watched the pig races and pumpkin launch.

And saw pumpkins are large as me!

 

He's the cutest.
