Monday Musings

We have been living in a winter wonderland!  I don't mind it, sure it's cold and adds more time to get ready, drive, etc, but it's so pretty!!  I hope that it stays cold and keeps snowing for Christmas.

We took the kids to see Santa on Friday...they were in great moods and there was no line!! But as soon as we walked this corner, Santa got up and left!  They ended up switching Santas and by then...well I'll share those photos a little later in the week!!

Saturday brought lots of errands and taking my youngest sister on a few of them! Those of you wondering, she's doing so well.  She's still in her programs, working with counselors, therapists and getting the treatment she needs.  I am so proud of her and continue to pray daily.

I snapped a few photos with my nice camera. 

We are definitely cutting this one's hair after Christmas.  It's time.

I bought this adorable outfit from Marshalls, it's "Seven for all Man kind" and I wanted him to wear it on a family photo shoot in the fall...that never happened.

Brooke made her reindeer headband in preschool and hasn't taken it off, until today because it's now quite tattered after wearing it 24/7.  Yes, she slept in it.

Can you guess her favorite Christmas song at the moment?

My two crazy goofball kids.

Sunday we got ready for my sister's cookie party.  She insisted on taking her photo by her Santa countdown.

And one by the white tree

We got a photo of the kids!

I love this one.

From 1-7.  They had a ball eating all the cookies.

It got a little warm so we threw his hair up in a "Man bun." He may have a little obsession with controllers...

Christmas Spirit wrapped up in this beautiful girl.

And if you're still looking for a gift, I highly recommend this gold trove ring!

You can still order until tomorrow 12/20 to get it by Christmas!!

How fun would this tree be?! haha

Fab Fit Fun {Winter Edition}

I'm not going to lie, I'm a sucker for good subscription boxes.  As much as I used to love shopping, leisurely taking my time to look around the malls and stores…ain't no prego with a toddler got time for that!!

I discovered this Fab Fit Fun box over the Summer and I really have loved them! I especially like that they are seasonal, so you get 4 a year, not one every month.  That can be a bit much…  So when my Winter one showed up, it was awesome!

At first glance: A sample of Justin's Almond Butter---I LOVE this and have an empty jar in my recycling bin.  I may have packed this in my diaper bag already, in case I need a snack ha!

Zumba--?!?!?!-- I LOVE ZUMBA and as soon as I get the all clear postpartum, I cannot WAIT to try this 60 minute DVD out.  How perfect, since I don't have a gym membership (yet) and with two little babes, maybe this will be perfect for me!! Yay!

Fashion Project-- I glanced at their site, it is where you can sell/buy high end clothing…mama will check back on that later.

Upon opening-

Eye Serum--Gogi berry something or other, feels soooo soooo good on my tired eyes.

Salted--3 free months of cooking classes online with some fab chefs; woot!  I may save this until I can really use it!

$25 towards Zumba gear!!

Organic Apple face peel--I slabbed it on before my shower yesterday and I may have noticed a little more glow to my skin.  I can't get over how big the samples are!

Evening Primrose hand creme-- It doesn't have a strong scent at all, but it was really a nice think winter cream.  I need all the help I can get because I wash dishes and my hands so frequently, my thumbs have already begun to crack!

I'm pretty partial to my Muscle Gain Protein shakes, but I'll still give this a whirl. It does have 23 grams a sugar, which I feel is kind of high, but I like that it's organic.  I'm saving this for when I am ravenous with nursing and need to fuel.

Again, I don't usually buy snack bars other than Advo, but I'll try this out. I stuck it in my bag in case we are in a jam and I'm hungry.

Makeup!!  I love makeup.  These two shades of mineral makeup are not something I usually wear, so I will play around…

Any tips? {I have brown eyes}

This candle smells heavenly.   It's my "nap time" go to right now…I will light it while she sleeps, and I can catch up on blogging, emails, whatever…smells heavenly!

And lastly, this necklace which fights hunger.  One necklace buys 7 meals!! I thought that was pretty cool.

Do you have a favorite subscription service?
