Life Lately!

Hey, remember me?!  I feel like I need to blow the dust off of this blog 😜

This school year has been much harder than I anticipated, so I probably won’t be blogging regularly like I used to until I figure things out.  Just bear with me, please 🙂  I’m more active on instagram, so in the meantime, find me on there!

I was going to do a favorites post today, but I need to catch y’all up on things before I share a few favorites so I hope to have that for y’all Friday!

 We dedicated Harrison at church October 6th.  In front of our congregation and both families, we promised to raise Harrison in a home that points him to Christ and our church family promised to help us raise him.  It was the sweetest time and he entertained the congregation with his smile and his tongue ha!  This is my favorite dress right now!



 The day before my sister (who is a photographer) was doing cotton mini sessions and she had one opening so we took advantage of it!  I got this in an 11×14 so I cannot wait to get it framed!



 I got this one day from his teacher at school and died–this is his personality to a T.  I have no idea how he learned to do this, but this is Harrison 😂😂



 A shaved ice place opened up downtown so we went one Friday night.  Harrison took advantage of us look at the camera to go for my shaved ice–and you can see that Dustin got ice cream instead. 



 We had to try on our new (and bigger) Christmas pjs to see how they will fit us–I CANNOT WAIT!!!  November 1st, we’re waiting on you!!



 It’s been incredibly hot here lately….like, still in the 90s.  We knew a cold front was coming so when the temp finally hit the low 80s, we went for a walk!  I wanted to get a picture of him in front of the house before we went back inside, and as you can tell, he was thrilled.



 My sister turned 28!!



I still can’t get over how much I love this little boy 😍

My Perfect Fall Day

Happy Thursday, y’all!  It’s the last day of our Fall Favorites link up and I hope you’ve enjoyed either participating or reading it!  As I was thinking about today’s prompt (which I’m really excited about), I realized how different these perfect days were going to be depending upon the season of life you’re in.

Since I’m in the season of life with an almost 7 month old (TOMORROW!!!!), mine is going to be way different than my life before becoming a mom lol!

I would start my perfect fall day sleeping in until 7am.  I used to enjoy waking early (as in, between 6 and 7), but now that I am no longer in control over when I wake up or if I even get a full nights sleep, I’d like to sleep until 7….uninterrupted haha!

I’d want it to be a chilly morning so I can throw on pants, grab a blanket, turn on the fire, and drink a cup of coffee.  This sounds so nice to me typing this out right now 😜 And Dustin would have Chick fil a breakfast waiting on me, too haha! 

I would also not have to work on my perfect day, Dustin would be off of work, and we’d have Harrison with us.

After I spent a lazy morning drinking coffee, playing with Harrison, and watching The Today Show, I’d get ready and we’d go out to do some fall activity.  I actually think it would be so fun to go to the zoo together.  We took Harrison this summer and it was really hot, so I’m sure it’d be really nice in the fall–plus, I’m sure there would be fall decorations. And since the weather is going to be slightly chilly, I can wear fall clothes and not sweat.

We’d make it home in time for me to take a really nice afternoon nap.  I’m talking a cold, dark room with Harrison’s sound machine on (the only way to sleep now haha!).

Dinner would be pizza from Domino’s or from our local pizza place downtown.  Is it crazy that pizza is such a treat to me?  And while we’re eating pizza, we’re (I say we’re but Dustin is weird and hates movies) watching either You’ve Got Mail or Beetlejuice!

This may not sound like much, but it doesn’t take much to please me these days.  Any day that I get to spend with my boys is a perfect day…especially if it’s the whole day 🙂

Link up and share your perfect fall day!  I can’t wait to read!

Fall Home Tour 2019

Hi friends!!!

Sorry for my unexpected week long absence!  I’m still trying to figure out how to juggle everything and this blog often comes last–especially when Harrison is sick…again 🙁

Emily and I are sharing our fall home tours, and to be totally honest, mine is nothing special this year.  There are some decorations I didn’t put out because I wanted something different, but it’s also not a top priority to buy new fall decorations while my paycheck is still cut–thanks American maternity leave 😜  But don’t worry, Christmas will definitely be over the top this year!

Come on in!
 It was in the mid-90s when I took this picture so there isn’t much on our porch.  What you can’t see are our fall pillows on the rocking chairs.  Mums may come later.


 Entryway

 I changed up the sofa table and mantle this year and am really pleased with how they look.


 Our living room looks a lot different these days–can you spot the difference?!


 I hate having a corner fireplace.  When we build again, I will not do a corner fireplace because it makes rug placement awkward.  I thought about doing a custom cut rug, but didn’t have the energy to research prices and places.


 Harrison says hi!


 I only decorated this side of the kitchen because the other side is covered with bottle drying racks and formula and all the baby necessities.


We do secret pals at school and my secret pal gifted me with some fall decorations, so I added them to our bedroom!  I love both of them–especially since the pumpkin lights up, too!
