1- This candle from Bath & Body Works.

 Fresh Balsam 14.5 oz. 3-Wick Candle - Slatkin & Co. - Bath & Body Works

We don't have a real tree because one year when I was younger we had a real tree and when we bought it in the house a mouse ran out of it and now I have an irrational fear that a real tree comes with some odd critter living it. This candle gives me the smell of a tree without a creature coming into my house. I love it and buy one every year!

2- This hand soap from BBW! I also buy the lotion and body wash because yum it smells so good.

Winter Candy Apple Deep Cleansing Hand Soap - Anti-Bacterial - Bath & Body Works
3- These Jimmy Jams for Grayson. There is something that is so festive about a nugget in Christmas PJ's. ( I won't even tell you what my husband said about these PJ's and Santa)
 JUST ONE YOU® Made by Carter's Infant Toddler Boys' 2-Piece Long-Sleeve Santa Pajama Set

4- I'm getting my nails did today. I'm going with a gel manicure and I'm beyond excited. We have a wedding and a Christmas party this weekend so it will take one thing off my plate because G is going for an over night and I have to pack my entire house up for him tonight

5-The fact that Michael and I got an iPad for Christmas. We decided that since Grayson was born we would scale back on Christmas with each other and really focus on each other's birthday's instead. We set a $100.00 budget a piece and I scored an iPad mini for $199.99 on black friday. We also get each other a small $25.00 gift for each other from Grayson.


Happy Friday everyone!!!

Love that it's Friday Love that its Friday and we have a beautiful weekend ahead of us! Linking up with Andrea today! One These PJ's. When we first got married (and even before I was married really) I used to wear cute PJ's to bed and then I started to wear not so cute PJ's to bed so I ordered some new ones and OMG girls get these now. So so soft so so comfy and under $20.00! Plus they have pockets!   Two While your shopping at Kohls throw some of these picture frames in your cart! Just for fun! I love that they are easy to change out and have a distressed look! Plus they can sit on a shelf or be hung on the wall. Love! Three We have been swimming like crazy and that equals all the things that go with swimming like a million towels and swim suits. My bathroom was a mess. I usually never wash my swim suits I just rinse them out and hang dry they last a lot longer doing it that way and so I had things hanging every where! So I ord...

A nice little sweet spot

The sweet spot…. We seem to have hit one. I feel like we have not been in a sweet spot since the twins were about 6 months old. You know before they were mobile and can get into a ton of mischief. When kids are 0-6 months they still like to be held they eat mostly bottles and they mostly just stay in one spot. No issues, you can go places and even though you have to pack up your whole house to be prepared you can relax. And if you are in my family someone is always willing to hold or feed or change a baby. 7-months to 2.5 years old is what I refer to as the lost years. You have so many things you have to do for them they are not potty trained and they are mobile and get into EVERYTHING. Going outside is more work than its worth and with twins they scatter in opposite directions. Three on one is so hard handle in big open spaces. I would often find myself skipping outside time because the work was just too much for me. When the twins turned 3 and Grayson was 6 it felt like we had a ...

We got a van!!!

Words I didn't think I would ever type. That I drive a mini-van. A soccer mom car if you will. I loved my Jeep. I knew it would be fine for 2 kids. I was content in keeping it until it was paid off and then getting a different car. I just loved it that much. Then October 27th we found out we would be having 2 babies and that equals 3 car seats and my wonderful Jeep just didn't cut it anymore. We did a ton of research. Weighed our options. Looked into a ton of different cars and even bounced around the idea of trying to make my car work. But then it hit me. I'm alone in the mornings. It is just me that will have to load 3 kids into a car and trying to cram them all into my small (ish) jeep was not something I wanted to battle 3 mornings a week and in the winter. So I knew where I wanted to go and that was a mini-van. I wanted AWD and that narrowed me down to the Toyota Sienna. My cousin sells cars so we contacted him and set up an appointment and went up to...
