Good Morning!! I hope everyone had a wonderful week and a great start to the CHRISTMAS MONTH! Charleston has officially welcomed some cooler temperatures and I couldn’t be more excited about it! There was something unsettling about having temps close to the 80’s this close to Christmas. I have been dying to break out my comfy sweaters (the ones that still fit), big boots and oversize scarfs! If anyone is looking for some wardrobe inspiration this season, I highly suggest joining Pinterest! I absolutely LOVE LOVE LOVE everything about this site, and I mean EVERYTHING!! You have to have a current member send you an invite, so please message me if you would like to have a new addiction J Speaking of addictions, let me share with you my “Morning Musts” for the season!
LUNA LUNA, how I can’t seem to get enough of you! These women’s health bars are packed with vitamins and FLAVOR! I feel like I’m eating a candy bar, give it a try I promise YOU WILL LOVE LOVE LUNA BARS! My personal favorites are the Chocolate Peppermint Stick (which tastes like peppermint bark), and the NEWEST kind Chocolate Chip Chunk (omg)! HOLY SWEETNESS! Oatmeal Raisin is also my #3 favorite!!! Cheerios seems to be a personal Baby Bee favorite these days, and we have even had days where we have a bowl for every meal, weird… I KNOW! Cheerio’s seem so boring but for some reason I am lovingggggggg those little O’s!!! The last seasonal favorite is this unbelievably tasty coffee creamer I spike my decaff coffee with each morning! Nothing like a minty/chocolate blast to get ya going in the morning!!!! Add this one to your grocery list, I promise you will not be disappointed!!!!!

This week also marked WEEK 25 for the little babe and we even had a great check up at the doctors this week! Dr. Evans gets such a “kick” out of how much this little sugar kicks and fights for his/her release! I’m thinking it’s getting a little too tight in there for the little one and he/she needs bigger accommodations! I’ve informed the little one that that an upgrade is coming slowly but surely…..meaning my stomach is expanding to some pretty crazy lengths!!! As weird as this sounds, I never actually have been able to picture myself with the whole baby belly and now that its here im still getting use to it all. It hit me this morning that we only have about 3 more months left until we officially meet this little one!!!! Should I be panicking??? We still have to 1) Finish the new home remodel 2) MOVE 3) Travel to DE for the holidays 4) Finish the nursery 5) Sign up for baby classes 6) Figure out this whole parent thing J I have decided I may be the only expectant Mom who has read basically ZERO books, I have strong faith in the “you will just figure it out method”… who thinks I’m crazy??? Haha! I think maybe I should raise my own hand, haha!

On to a non-baby topic, who has started thinking of New Year’s resolutions? I would love to hear what everyone is planning to change/remove/add to their lives for 2012! One thing I have started doing is making “yearly bucket lists” of things I want to do/accomplish in the upcoming year! I actually would love to have an annual make your bucket list party with friends to gear up for another blessed and exciting year ahead! I will keep everyone posted on some of my items for my 2012 bucket list, I do know that running another Half Marathon WILL be on the list!!! Mannnnnnnnn I miss those long runs, sore muscles and trips to the NIKE outlet!!! Well, Maxey Bear is giving me the “take me for a walk before I start going bongo’s look” so we are off to enjoy this fall morning around the Island! I hope everyone has a blessed Saturday and for all the Tiger fans out there… GOOOOOOOOOO CLEMSON!!!
