As I look outside my window:::
It's cloudy and cold!  This morning, it snowed.  I'm so over it and ready for summer weather.

Right now I am::: 
Sitting on the couch in the living room, listening to the girls watching their iPads and munching away on pop corn.

Thinking and pondering:::
All of the things I have to do today and tomorrow to get ready for the baby that is coming on Wednesday!!!

On my bedside table:::
My bottled water and Hollow City by Ransom Riggs, which I have yet to actually crack open.

What I am creating:::
Trying to work on my mood blanket when I can.  Thinking about rearranging some squares so I can be done quicker but either way, at this point, it won't be done when I go into the hospital.
   
My simple pleasure:::
Smelling my kids heads.  I just love that sweet smell, even with my stinky 6 year old.

Homemaking tips::: 
I'm not sure.  I'm drawing a blank.  

Looking around the house:::
There is so much laundry in piles in the hallway.  Some to be folded and some to be put away, some to be washed.  I just got done vacuuming up a popcorn mess on the floor from my girls and went ahead and vacuumed the whole living room while I was at it.
  
From the camera:::
Rylie's first time on the big kid swing.

My family as we get ready for our new little addition to our family

Bible verse, Devotional:::
Trust in the Lord with all your heart and lean not on your own understanding; in all your ways acknowledge Him, and He will make your paths straight. ~ Proverbs 3:5-6

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...
