I'm alive! I'm so sorry I've been MIA this past week.
I don't have much of an excuse, other than the fact I think the 3rd trimester tired-ness has hit me HARD lately. By about 2-3pm every day, my eyes are
burning because they're so tired. And, by the time I actually get home between 5-6pm, all I want to do is lay on the couch and not move until I have to get up to go to bed. Basically, I'm a big lump.
Oh, and...I've been living in our basement since last Friday night, since we had our hardwood floors re-finished this past week. (They look awesome, by the way! I'll take pics this weekend and show you all soon.) So yeah, it's been me, Hubs, Bailey, Roxy, and Fozzie Bear...all crammed into our basement for the past week. Good times! ;-)
So, I'm definitely looking forward to moving back upstairs this weekend and getting back into our normal lives/routine. It's tough only having one TV to watch, let me tell ya! There
may have been just a few arguments about who gets to watch what show. And, since I usually go to bed earlier than Hubs, I
may have gone all
tired-cranky-preggo-mama on him a few times because the TV was too loud and too bright. Oopsie...whatcha gonna do? He still loves me. :-)
Now, to play a little catch-up today...I want to finish up the last few days of
Aly's 12 Days of Christmas.
Day 11 - New Year's Resolutions
Unfortunately, I'm not very good at making/keeping New Year's resolutions...but, I definitely like to try each year! So, here are a few that I'd love to keep up with:
Be on time....whether it's for work, appointments, parties. I'm usually always late, and I hate it. I definitely need to work on that.
Stop procrastinating - This kind of goes along with being late. I am the queen of saying "Oh, I'll just do that tomorrow, or the next day"....and then it ends up turning into days/weeks/months later, and I still haven't done what I was supposed to do. Another trait of mine that I hate.
Decorate our home! I know I've mentioned this a time or two on here, but, I definitely need to work on painting/decorating our house (our living room especially), so that I'm not completely embarrased to have company over and can actually enjoy spending time in my own home. Anyone know a good interior designer??
Aly, you
know I'm dying for you to help me in this department! ;-)
Day 12 - Show Us Your Decorations
Well, unfortunately, because of the re-finishing of the floors project, we have not been able to put up our Christmas tree or decorate anything inside yet. :-( We did put lights and fun blow-up characters outside, though...I just don't have a picture of those yet. I'll definitely take pictures as soon as everything's all set and decorated, though, and make a whole post dedicated to it! (I know you're all SO excited for that, right??)
Day 13 - Favorite Cookie
I don't have any good recipes for this, since I'm not the best cook/baker in the house...so, I'll just show you some pictures of my favorite cookies. Those are always fun, right?!
Snickerdoodles...Mmmm!
Sugar cookies...omg, I'm drooling
Day 14 - Oprah's Favorite Things...what I would want
Oooh, this one's pretty easy:
And maybe a nice vacation to a place like this:
Phew!! I think I'm all caught up now! I promise I'll make another post either today or tomorrow with my 30 week bump/quiz! (30 weeks!! Eeeek!) I hope you all have a great weekend! :-)
