Thursday Randoms

1. We have tons of diapers. Ridiculous amounts. And the price tag? Amazing. So the other night we tried to reorganize the closet by sizes. In the meantime... Elliana thought it would be fun to throw herself in the pile of diapers. She had a wild time.

evidence. Hurricane Elliana. Category 5.

2. I'm kind of embarrassed by the amount of packages that keep arriving on my doorstep. I think the mailman is convinced that I just sit in my house on my computer and click click away. Tis is not true. {I do it at work}. Kidding {partially}. But honestly, 90% of the stuff that is showing up? FREE. Why? Because I have like an infinity amount of bucks at all those "deal" site, groupon, plum district, eversave. LOVE them.

a free toy we got for elliana. {for christmas... but i'm too embarrassed to wrap up anymore presents!}

3. It snowed for the first time here a couple of days. I smiled for... two seconds. That's it. Don't get me wrong, I love the snow.. so pretty... but do we have to drive in it? Must it hit the roads? Can't it just fall on grass. No? Then it can go back to where it came from.

4. I made cookies the other day with Elli so that I could fill my "cookie jar." Hm. 40 cookies only filled a quarter of the thing. Lovely.

5. It's beginning to look a lot like Christmas. Oh for the love of a Christmas tree. I LOVE it. We decorated as a family on Sunday and it was so much fun {more pictures to come}. Elliana loves the lights, but is totally over it after a minute. She moves right along to her toys. Me? I love love love every second of it.

We are actually going to go get a real tree too {to start a family tradition} but it will be one that will be on our front porch. I think.

6. When did my little one year old turn 16? Who does she think she is? Chatting it up with her B-F-F's. I'm sure that's what she is thinking.

 7. And O-TO-THE-M-G. It's December first!!! Can you believe this? Time? What is that! Holy smokes, I am in shock!! And so so soooo excited. I just can't contain myself.

Have I mentioned that Christmas is my favorite holiday of the year? Hands down.
