I came here to tell you all that the snickerdoodle hot chocolate is the best thing ever. The Starbucks I went to was selling cake pops for $1 (reg $1.95) when you buy the hot chocolate.

You are welcome.
Sigh! I needed actual coffee today! Tomorrow I will get one! Good to know it is good though!
I think I will make a trip into the city to peruse Home Sense (Home Goods for you americans). We have really boring ornaments so Id like to find a couple new ones to add, and we need/want a wreath for the front door.
Maybe I will be extra bad and hit up Michaels too.
Thanks for the tip erinshelley21! I might have to make a Starbucks run after nap time...
Hope everyone is having a great weekend! We decorated our Christmas tree this morning. Now DS and I are settling in for a nap. College football is the only thing on my schedule for the rest of the day.

Ds and I have had a full day already. Breakfast with Santa, trip to dollar store for paper goods and drinks for his party tomorrow, my work for a bit to meet with a client, Starbucks, grocery store, home to bake one cake, and we just straightened the garage some more. We are resting before we finish cleaning the garage and make green bean casserole for DH's Christmas party tonight. It's at his fire department and Santa will be there. Ds saw Santa this morning so I am hoping he doesn't ask 71 questions about why there are two. Once we get home from that I need to bake the other cake and make the toppers that were supposed to be for cupcakes, move the Elf, and wrap his birthday presents.
It's really unfortunate that I can't drink wine because I would he doing those last 4 things with a bottle. Like an entire one.
You will never go back. Smells amazing and when your done, just throw it out during the tree pick up.
I really need to get mine soon. Maybe tomorrow.
How long do they live? My family always used fake because advent-epiphany is a long time. Like last week till early January, will a real tree live that long? If so I may start doing that.

It will be fine into January. Just water it every day. They need alot of water. I keep mine until the garage pick up happens, I think the first week in January.

Oh neat! I have a whole year to talk DH into this.

@priss08 they'll do better if you go to a cut-your-own place. ILs keep theirs through epiphany and getting a super fresh one plus diligent watering works.
@priss08, moving while pregnant is the WORST. I was 11 weeks when we moved into our current house. You have my sympathies, as I am getting winded just thinking about it lol.

Oh yeah. While u was pregnant with DS we moved while I was about the same amount pregnant as now. I can't decide which move has been worse Alabama to New Hampshire or across the apartment complex.

Home from the Christmas party. I won a round of bingo and the prize was a carbon monoxide detector. Such a firefighter prize lol. Time to bake cake, cook some ground beef and work on party decor!
DS lasted way longer st the Christmas party tonight than I expected. He was being a total charmer with everyone. Party number 2 tomorrow, we'll see if DS has gotten over his Santa fear or not.
My H took C and I out for dinner last night. It was nice to not order-in for once. C was a total ham with all the olds in the resteraunt too. He kept trying to offer his food to an old lady sitting across from us.
Today, my H has convinced me to go "look" at the humaine society so we can "learn what is involved in adopting a dog".
Lort give me strength. There better be only mean lookin', ugly mug dogs there today.

Busted my butt this morning to go grocery shopping, chop up veggies and brown ground turkey for tomorrow's chili, finished up laundry...this means it's time to straight chill for the rest of the day! It's supposed to rain this afternoon so this just makes my lazy afternoon even better!
Hi everyone! Wow, I've been MIA...sorry! I got an Instant Pot over Black Friday weekend and it arrived a couple days ago so I've been obsessed. OMG. Best. Appliance. Ever. I made a cheese cake last night, which I never would have attempted otherwise, and it is SO good. I don't even love cheese cake.
In other news, I had a dream that DH was standoffish and after repeatedly asking what was wrong he said, "I still love you, but I don't know, I just want to see other people". I was like, "oh, alright"...and we went on living together and married but he started dating. Pregnancy does weird things to your brain. Happy Sunday!
So MH is taking an interest in bassinets and other nursery items suddenly. It's kind of adorable, and he wants to spring for more pricey things...
Any thoughts on the Halo Bassinet? Seems like a lot to spend on something that will only be used for 6 months, but H likes that it takes up less space than a pack n play yet is heavy and sturdy enough to not easily get knocked over by our dog.
I want to throw away everything I own omg. I am in such a mood to purge. I have decided that if I dont love it/it doesnt bring me joy, then it is out the door. Nesting for realz.

Same. I literally want to go through every drawer and closet in my house!

Me too but the laziness is still stronger than the urge to purge. Three months until I have 2 kids and there's junk everywhere!!!
