What I'm Loving Wednesday



Happy Wednesday..
The week is half over... the weekend is almost here, YAY!

I have enjoyed posting Weekly Love and linking up with Chicago Cuisine Critique on Wednesdays.
She has decided to link up with Jamie at This Kind Of Love for What I'm Loving Wednesday, and I'm going to follow.
Link up here and join the fun!

What I'm Loving Wednesday



1. I'm loving my new favorite Panera Bread breakfast... spinach and bacon egg souffle


This is sooo Yummy and a must try.

2. I'm loving that I have retreated back to my childhood and rediscovered Peanut Butter and Jelly sandwiches... toasted!



I have eaten this several times this week, and have enjoyed everyone of them.

OK. Enough food...

3. I'm loving hooded scarves


I got this one at Target.com.. It's warm and convenient having a scarf and hat in one.

4. I'm loving Banana Shampoo and Conditioner from The Body Shop


This shampoo and conditioner makes my hair so soft, and it smells wonderful.

5. I am loving that my beautiful cousin has given birth to a sweet baby girl,
London Aleece


I can't wait for my vacation in March (I'm going to Denver) so I have hold and love on this sweet baby.

Weekly Love

Wow! It's been a long while since my last blog... let's just say life got the best of me and I was in a little rut. Things are getting better, and I'm pulling myself out.

With that being said, it's time for...
 Weekly Love
link up with Chicago Cuisine Critique and tell us what you're loving this week.



1. I'm loving that I see the light at the end of the tunnel. Life for me is looking up and I'm trying to stay positive.


2. I'm loving my new bracelet I bought on Etsy, here. It so beautiful and organic.


3. I'm loving that pummelos (aka Asia's grapefruit) are back. They are so yummy, and smell wonderful. If you like citrus fruit, and haven't tried the beauty... you must do so now.

Top 2 Tuesday

Ahh... Hello, Tuesday!

I can't believe Christmas is around the corner, I really need to get my Christmas cards in the mail,
and my Mom and Brother's gifts shipped.


Now on to the fun and games
go visit
and play along



Top 2 Favorite Games

1. Scattergories - I have played this game so many times, it's almost become 'easy' for me.



2. Catch Phrase - This is a fun take-a-long game, and fun to be played in a big group.


I apparently like games that have to do with words

Happy Day Everyone, Enjoy It!

Family Christmas Picture

Happy Thursday... it's been a fast week for me, I guess because I was off work on Tuesday. I do wish I was able to stay home all week! It's been cold freezing here in Chicago... BRRRR! My HUGE collections of warm cozy scarves have made their seasonable appearance, YAY!

Tuesday, like I mentioned, we took Booges for his 6 month pictures and also family Christmas pictures.
I would like to share a few of my favorites with all of you...




We had so much fun!

I hope everyone has a wonderful day.


Thanks for stopping by...

Top 2 Tuesday


It's Tuesday... and I'm off work today, YAY! We are taking Booges for his Christmas/6 month pictures this afternoon. It felt good to be able to sleep in a little and lounge around the house
(The Man decided not to go to school, so we're all home together)

Now on to Top 2 Tuesday
link up with Taylor and join the fun!!

Top 2 Favorite Christmas Ornaments
 
What a fun and hard topic...
I have a HUGE collection of Christmas ornaments and love them all, but here are my most recent favorites
 
1. So this time last year I was pregnant with Booges, and I didn't know what I was going to have at the time. I love the idea of 'picking' a new ornament every year, and even though he wasn't here born yet, I wanted to get something, and this is what I ended up with
 
Mr. Humpty Dumpty is happily hanging from our tree.

This is his ornament this year


2. Ok, this next one is kinda funny... keeping up with the new Christmas ornament idea, last year The Man and I celebrated our first Christmas together
(I know, our first Christmas and pregnant... we didn't wait at all)
I wanted to pick something up for us... I was at the store alone, but wanted him to 'help' pick it out.
So as I stood in front of the wall of ornaments, he sent me on a little scavenger hunt. He told me to look at the one right in front of me and move 2 to the left, one up, 3 to the right... and so one (you get the idea).
Well when he was done... this is what we ended up with


We don't have our ornament this year... we are going to look for one later today.
I don't think I want to play the same game (however it was fun) I don't want to end up with a dump truck or something else crazy.
