Love List

I just want to start off by saying THANK YOU all so much for the kind words & well wishes for baby number two!! We are over the moon excited! I can’t thank you enough for all of your sweet comments, you really made our day & we are so excited to continue sharing our journey with you all here on the blog. Thank you from the bottom of my heart!! More baby updates to come very soon!

It’s love list time!

1. Halloween Books. I was so excited to get out some of Harper’s Halloween books from last year (and add a few new ones to the collection), they make story time each night just a little more festive! Some of our favorites are Room on the Broom, Ghosts in the House & Goodnight Goon! Of course, Where the Wild Things Are is pretty festive for the occasion as well! All of her books are displayed on these super inexpensive photo ledges from Ikea that are hanging in the playroom, I love switching the books out for every season. The sweet little plush black cats can be found here.

2. Holiday Garlands. More of my very favorite garlands have made a return this holiday season, can’t go wrong with this embroidered metallic garland that is perfect for a nursery or just to keep up all year round!

3. Sweater weather. Also known as leggings weather. Either way, I am loving this waffle knit cardigan (not ashamed to admit I still shop at AE, can’t beat their prices, especially when they have online sales almost every week) & this striped cable cardigan. Both of which will accommodate a growing belly!

4. Peach Cobbler. This is a total cheat recipe, it is SO easy. Perfect for unexpected company or a sudden craving The recipe can be found here, it is so so so yummy!!!

5. Itty bitty baby clothes. Shopping the other day, these little velour footed pants (in both navy & pink) caught my eye, the colors are so vibrant in person! I love love love them & can’t wait to scoop up a pair once we know what we are having!

6. Fall TV is back. I hate to even bring up my love for Fall TV, but Parenthood, Modern Family & The Voice make me very happy! Gotta pick up a new hobby for the next few monthS since evening porch beers are now out of the question.

7. Festive Party Supplies. It’s time for paper straws & cupcake toppers, I am loving the selection in this etsy shop! Just picked up some Halloween & Christmas straws, along with bakers twine & a few other goodies for our Halloween party!

8. Tomorrow is OCTOBER!! Officially acceptable to decorate for Halloween! For some reason, I wasn’t as into my Fall decor as much this year (maybe a lack of energy & enthusiasm all around) but I am feeling much better & so ready for black bats & witch hats! You can find some of my favorite Halloween inspiration here & also see what we did around our house last year here!

Happy Monday Friends!
