Happy Homemaker Monday

The weather in my neck of the woods:
It's in the 80s today but is supposed to be chilly and rainy by Wednesday this week.

Things that make me happy: 
Doctor's appointments where I get to see my baby (sono).  I'm not a patient person.  I can't wait for February.  

Book I'm reading: 
Cleaving by Julie Powell

What's on my TV today: 
The last 2 episodes of Bones season 6

On the menu for dinner:
Pineapple brats/hot dogs, grilled asparagus, cheesy potato casserole, and strawberries



On my To Do List:
Fold and put away laundry
Organize the kids new play room

New Recipe I tried or want to try soon:
This week I'm planning on making Creamy Taco Pasta Bake.

In the craft basket:
Ugh at this time I don't really have anything, although I wish I did.  

Looking forward to this week:
Hopefully catching up on sleep, and getting ready for Halloween.  We'll be carving pumpkins this week!

Tips and Tricks: 
I can't think of anything off the top of my head today.

My favorite blog post this week: 
I haven't really been able to sit and read the blogs lately, but hopefully I'll catch up this week.

No words needed (favorite photo or picture, yours or others you want to share): 


Lesson learned the past few days: 
You can't always protect your kids, but if you shower them with love and always do your best, you are doing just fine.

On my mind:
SLEEP!  I'm just exhausted.  I think it's partially the pregnancy, and partially my schedule.  I need to slow down a little and work on getting to bed at a more decent hour.  I make my kids go to bed early, why can't I?

Blogmas 2014 - Day 8 What Is On Your Wish List This Year

Oh my goodness, I'm really pretty easy to buy for.  I have pretty much everything a girl could want.  I mean of course I have a few things but I'm not really counting on anything because I already got a huge gift of the new car. I really love scarves, especially infinity scarves right now.  I'm beyond obsessed.   Fun gadgets, appliances, etc for my kitchen are always a win for me as well as cookbooks and decorations.  I'm so into all of it, and it's the best go to gift idea for me. A nice pair of rain boots or wellies.  I just bought some for all of my kids for Christmas, and I've been dying for my own for years. Vera Bradley!  I'm so in love with Vera Bradley.  I'd like a bigger purse, as well as a library tote bag. And honestly I've not asked for any of even these things because what I want more than anything else in the world, is our own house.  I want to buy a house for my kids to grow up in an...

Blogmas 2014- Day 1 Favorite Christmas Tradition

By
This year, I'm participating in Sandra's, at Diary of a Stay at Home Mom, Blogmas 2014.  If you want to join in, you can go over to her post, by clicking here , and see what it's all about.   When I was a kid, growing up, we never had fake trees.  I loved everything about them. The smell, the way they looked, and even more so, the going out as a family in the cold.  It was always a hunt whether at a tree far or a parking lot full of precut trees.  When I was younger it was the parking lot.  There was a place about a mile from our house that we would drive to.  We'd walk through tons of trees leaning against walls and fences.  My dad would hold each one up, shaking them a little bit and asking what we thought.  We all got to be involved in finding the perfect tree.  As we got older, we started going to tree farms instead of the parking lot.  We'd get a sled and a saw and walk between aisles and aisles in fields, full of gorgeou...
