Unfortunately, I have to start off with our unhappy news. We lost our sweet Graham. Natalie and Tad took him in when he was skin and bones and nourished him in every way possible. He brought so much happiness to our family.

Spent a rainy Saturday morning brunching with Amanda from Girl About Columbus and Liz from Breathe It All In at Alchemy. We chatted over avocado toast and smoothies about all things mommy. Love these ladies!

Finally got caught up on my snail mail…

…which included the loads of boxes that have been arriving. We have not really had the time to go together to pick out what we need, so we opted to have most of it shipped and it was like Christmas morning going through all of it!

The babe and I at 33 weeks! We threw ourselves a pity party since we didn’t get to go to Florida last weekend and went on a little shopping spree! We almost have Christmas done!

What the what?! It’s November!! I feel a certain anxiousness about Christmas’ arrival, but also can’t bear to put away my pumpkins. Gonna just be a weird hodge podge for awhile!

THE ROYALS WON THE WORLD SERIES!! So stinkin’ incredible! My mom was 8 months pregnant with me the last time they won the world series in ’85 and so it just feels like fate. Can’t wait for our baby to grow up watching the boys in blue!

The baby room is 99% complete. Come on baby! We are ready for ya!

What snazzy things have you all been up to? Hope you have all had an excellent start to November! Have a great weekend!

autumn, baby, Fall, Life

We have hit the single digit countdown and it’s about all we can do to get ourselves geared up for dinner out. It feels reminiscent of the first trimester tiredness, except we know how limited our time is just the two of us–so we have really tried to get out and enjoy this weather!

FINALLY found some time and energy to get my hair done and let me tell you, it was a total game-changer.

The boots I mentioned here arrived and I really haven’t worn anything since. They are absolutely the best.

So much to do–find a pediatrician, daycare provider, put together the baby room, pay bills, prepare meals, thank you notes, BUT Hocus Pocus was beaconing. FYI–all of these things are still not done.

The babe and I survived our 30 week check up and I was actually down a pound so I decided we need a smoothie and an asiago cheese bagel!

Speaking of smoothies, I am obsessed with them right now. Particularly the green passion power smoothie from Panera. Delicious.

I actually have today off work and I have BIG plans to get things done! What are some things you recommend in the last few weeks?
Hope you all have an amazing weekend!

A few weekends ago, I traveled up to Indiana for a bridal shower for my sweet cousin Amber and got to see this pretty lady, my dad, grandma, and all of my aunts, uncles, and cousins. It was so fun getting to be with them and for them to get to feel the baby move! It’s been hard being away from family and not being able to share all of the little milestones!

Got this sweet tee from Jean and June and started getting all kinds of teary. Can’t believe we get to meet this little nugget in less than 3 months!

FALL!!!!

We settled on this stroller and car seat set. We got it all set up and things got REAL.

The babe and I at 28 weeks! We have officially hit the 3rd trimester!

AND finally….October is here, my friends!! Ah, sweet, sweet October.
Plus, my baby brother turns 24 today…what?! Hope you have a happy day Nicky poo!
So that’s it for me, what have you all been up to?

Good morning! Just wanted to pop in to let you know about a great deal I spotted! These fall booties are $32 shipped! I went with the natural color, but was also debating the camel. I had to snag these up because it is so hard to find a low heel that isn’t super expensive. I am still contemplating the pairs I listed here, but couldn’t pass these up!

Did you all snag this deal?
Hope you are having an excellent week!
