Friday Favorites


Happy Friday! 

I've been a busy bee this week. I'm happy it's the weekend. Ted is off tomorrow and we don't have anything planned except finalize the baby's room. 

Speaking of which... My number one on my favorites is our glider/rocker and ottoman. 
I had a different one picked out originally but had a lot of problems ordering it. The first one I wanted was $599. I had a 15% off furniture coupon and opened a credit card for an additional 15% off. And Babies R Us has free shipping over $19. So I thought it was going to be a great deal. Except the furniture coupon didn't work on the chair. Because apparently the gliders "don't count as furniture" and my 15% off for opening the card didn't work online either (this was an online only item) and finally, I had free shipping, but apparently there is a freight surcharge of $130! 

So it was a horrendous experience. So once Ted got home from work I was basically in tears. So we took a ride to the store and got the one I fell in love with first. And was able to use both coupons and had no surcharge! So all together we spent $510 for a $625 chair/ottoman combo. And it will be here in 5 days which is awesome!! So excited!!! 

So lately I've been really really wanting peach iced tea from Olive Garden. So my bff and I went to lunch there last week. Well, the other day, in the pouring rain mind you, I went to OG and got a peach iced tea to go... 
I was one happy girl! Haha 

I saw this on the Internet and laughed pretty hard. The struggle is real on this one. My hubby is pretty good about picking up after himself but he definitely does this from time to time. Just leaves his clothes in front of the hamper. 

So I'm super excited about this! I ordered this dress from Pink Blush Maternity for my baby shower... I'm so anxious for it to arrive! It is sure to be a new favorite!

Oh by the way, when I picked up the peach tea, I also ordered another with no ice to save for later, soup, salad, bread sticks, Alfredo sipping sauce for the bread and a pice of chocolate mousse cake. Hahaha. #preggo

Have a great weekend!

What I'm loving
Baskin Robbins Cappucino Blasts
Fixer Upper Marathons
Not getting up with an alarm but still getting up early and feeling good. 
Shopping for baby

I love that I totally changed my theme and went with gray and white. There are just so many cute things!!


What we've been up to
Doctor appointments...
Getting the nursery together. 

Nesting! 
Baking lots and lots 
Generally relaxing and getting all things done 

What I'm dreading
Going in to labor early. I know it's not typical but - it's my first pregnancy and it's a fear of mine... Other than that just generally not being prepared when the baby comes. Although, I have lists and lists and am so organized. So we will see.


What I'm working on 
Getting everything ready for the baby. Trying to accept STILL being in this house that we both hate. 
Going through all my lists and checking things off slowly but surely 

What I'm excited about
Becoming a mom!!!!!!
And seeing Ted become a daddy!!

What I'm watching/reading
Reading Southern Living magazines and pregnancy books.
HGTV addict. 
Devils Hockey 


What I'm listening to
Anything relaxing I guess. 
I've also gone back to Dave Matthews. I forgot how much I loved them. 

What I'm wearing
All things warm & comfy
Specifically maternity stuff....
Maternity jeans are awesome... lol 



And maternity leggings...
Lots of comfy things. 
Except for this dress I wore to a baby shower last weekend





What I'm doing this weekend
Nothing for once. So that means I'm probably going to shop with my mom, shampoo the carpet in the baby's room and continue to organize!! 
  
What I'm looking forward to next month 
 My baby shower!!

What else is new
Nothing. Besides not working and prepping for baby that's all. And that's enough trust me!  


And because random is always fun...

He's so cute with his elephant. 

I rescued a dog from running down the middle of a very busy road. 
Picture this: 20° - 8 months pregnant - bribing a dog into my back seat whole cars are all stopped around me. 
I found her home luckily. Sweet girl. 

I hung our N on the kitchen wall finally. 
N from Hobby Lobby
Sconces from Partylite



Happy Wednesday!!!

Mid-Month Confessions

February 2016
Mid-Month Confessions 

So just to recap from some classics....

I still give my cats milk on the floor at night. 

I no longer hide laundry because....gasp...I keep up on the laundry these days since being home now. 

*

So here are some new ones...

Since I've stopped working, I have stopped washing my hair as much. I tend to wash it every other day. I shower everyday, but don't wash my hair. Last week... I went 4 days without washing my hair. Not gonna lie, I can't pull that off. It felt glorious to wash it after that long. The girly girl in me longs to be one of those women who can go a week without a wash and have fabulous hair. But that's just not the case. 
*
We went to a hockey game last weekend and I was "kinda hungry" so I got french fries and a pretzel before going to our seats. Then I wanted ice cream, so I got ice cream...with lots of sprinkles. Lol 
Ted snapped this pic of me 
 Me and the babe standing up to stretch. Those seats aren't that comfy when you're not preggo.
It was a long couple of hours! Haha
*
We saw Sebastian Maniscalco live in Atlantic City for Valentines Day. 
It was fun except I was loudly calling people out on smoking. Casinos are awful. Everyone knows it's basically a big smoke cloud. So I obnoxiously walked around with my scarf over my mouth and when someone would look at me I'd say "not everyone wants lung cancer dirtbag" not a proud moment but surely how I felt. Mind you my mouth was in my scarf so no one actually heard me. 
He's hilarious. Look him up when you have a second. 
*
This is as far as we are on the baby room. Not good. Lol hubby is painting it today though. At 32 weeks pregnant, I wish we were done with this. But it is what it is. 
It's going to be cute. I'm excited! Gray and white and elephants. Yay 
*
I feed the squirrels in my yard daily. I throw peanuts into those buckets so the blue jays can't get them. I proceed to talk to them through the glass too. Might be crazy lol oh well. 


That's all for now. I am super busy getting ready for baby!!! Have a great Monday!!
