Show & Tell; Fall is in the Air

9.03.12

Happy Labor Day to you all! This will be my night 3 of work, so I am most likely snooze snooze snoozing as the husband has a day off work today. Lucky guy. Unfortunately the hospital doesn't close for us :) . Anyways, today's theme is fall is in the air! Share your answers with us all, grab a button, and link up! Last week we had 100 link up!!

1. Tell us what you are looking forward to this fall?
What am I not looking forward is the real question. Nothing. Honestly, fall means that summer is over. And truly? I am ready for summer to be over. This was the hottest of hot for a summer and I just feel like I couldn't enjoy it the way I usually have. Don't get me wrong, summer is still my favorite season of the year, and I did have a great summer, but needless to say, I am ready to say farewell, cya next year.

What else? I'm ready for scarves. And boots. And jackets. And cool weather. Lots of walks outside {without sweating 2 minutes after I walk out the door}. Picnics at the park. Warm drinks. My third trimester. Eek!

2. Show us your fall style.


3. Tell us your favorite things to do in the fall. If you have children, activities to do with the kids?
My favorite activities in the fall basically revolve around my child. Since I'm a mama, that should come as no surprise to you all. For instance, I cannot wait to go to the apple orchard with my little family. More than once. For one, I can't wait to eat all those delicious apples and drink the amazing apple cider. But also? To see Elliana's face. Last year she was only about 9 months old. So this year should be interesting!

I also can't wait to go to the pumpkin patch ! And pick raspberries! And eat homemade pies. I'm looking forward to halloween and making pumpkins with Elliana and decorating. Fall also means that winter is right around the corner, which means that I love to shop during this time for presents. Which also means, I am wrapping lots of presents also. I know, a little obsessed much? Yes.

4. Show us your favorite fall beverage.














5. Tell us, how you will be participating in halloween this year. Plans? Costume ideas? 

Well. I plan on taking Elliana trick or treating { of course }. I already have her outfit in my possession, so I am really excited for her to really get into it the season. It's amazing what a difference a year will make. I think she will really enjoy it.  I'm sure the idea of candy will get her excited alone. Not that she will be eating any of it.

For me? Not sure if I am planning on going in costume or not. If I did, it would be the same as E. Wouldn't that be cute? Maybe I'll go as a pregnant lady.... oh wait.


Next Weeks Questions: Lets talk babies!

1. Tell us your favorite baby names? Aside from your own babies, if you have some :)
2. Show me your "dream" nursery {can be your baby's nursery or one that you love}
3. How many children would you like to have? How far apart?
4. Tell us what you think the importance of parenting is?
5. Show us your favorite newborn photo {can be your children or random}
6.  Tell us some things you promise to never do as a parent {and if you are a parent, did you stick to it}

Life Lately {this weekend}

9.2.12


Big girl room is in the making! Paint is up on the wall! Big girl bed came and has been set up. Stencil is out for the accent wall. The rug came. The curtains are ordered. This is all going so fast. And? I am happy to report that my daughter loves her big girl bed. So much so that she slept in it all through the night with no problems. No falling out either.

We got Elliana the cutest pair of Nike shoes from DSW. And she absolutely adores them. Never wants to take them off! If you sign up at DSW, you get free shipping!


What else came in the mail? Oh you know, just a Drew Brees jersey. Andrew is a big fan as he had graduated from Purdue and insisted that Elliana needed a jersey to wear every Sunday. Because you know she's going to be watching all the games and all.


Oh and here is a sneak peek of the Rug in Elliana's new big girl room. AH! I could squeaaaaal with excitement. I so desperately want to show the progress so far, but I know it would be best to wait. Needless to say, I can't wait.


In case you happened to miss my post from yesterday and everyone else's tweets and talk about it. Go hurry and take advantage of the TOTSY BLOW OUT SALE! Only a couple days left. You can get stuff for 1.50, shoes for 2.00, and dresses for $3.00. There's dresses for women too for 8! I can't say enough good things about it. I would know... since I ordered 28 things!

At midnight will be the Show and Tell Monday! So be sure to get your posts all ready. Forgot the questions? Here they are: 
1. Tell us what you are looking forward to this fall?
2. Show us your fall style.
3. Tell us your favorite things to do in the fall. If you have children, activities to do with the kids?
