Monday's Mood

It's Monday...blah!  I have started to spring clean a little early this year, ok a lot early.  One of my New Years resolution was to get a jump start on organizing and de-cluttering.  I am sitting here wondering how we have accumulated so much stuff.  We literally have no where to put anything in this tiny little flat but, somehow we have managed to.  I am trying to sort through everything to figure out what we need keep vs. give away and I started to think about re-decorating.   Of course..haha!  I am always so practical.

First on the list is this couch...with a little twerp running around we will need a darker color couch


Second is I want to paint a navy accent wall 



The third and final idea is painting the inside of the front door black, although I realize if I go too far with my re-decorating my husband may exercise his veto rights.  Hoping to avoid that!

New Year, New bumps...

Happy New Year!  

AND

Happy Friday!

So, yeah, I have been MIA for awhile but I promise I have a good excuse.  Are you ready for my excuse?  And no it's not because I am lazy.  I know that is what you were thinking.  The truth is...I am PREGNANT!  I have been spending my time trying not to throw up on people and falling asleep at work.  Blogging was the last thing on my mind but I am feeling better and ready to tackle some more blog posts.  I can't promise that this blog wont feature some baby posts because, lets be honest, it will.

Baby E ♡

I am 18 (+4 days) weeks.  The bump has decided to make it's appearance.  I am still fitting in my jeans..thanks god.  Tops are another story and it is not because of the bump.  My boobs are out of control.  Also, maternity clothes are the worst - I have yet to buy any.  I will leave that for another day.  

I think I may have been a little naive to pregnancy.  All my friends and family that have been pregnant seemed to handle it with such ease and always look amazing.  As soon as I became pregnant the truth starts to come out.  They start telling me about how sick, tired, and a ton of other things that I will do you a favor and spare you the details.  I was like..WTF?!  Where was this information before.  I could of benefited from knowing this.  So here I am pregnant thinking I have been lied to all my life..haha!  

But seriously it is all worth it once you feel the baby move and hear that tiny heart beat.  

Here is to a New Year, New Posts and New Beginnings

Let's get crafty

I love Halloween.  I mean seriously what is better than candy and costumes....

I usually carve pumpkins but this year I am going to be lazy and paint them.  I can't really put it outside anyways so why not paint plus I don't have to worry about competing with the hubs on our pumpkin designs.  The amount of stupid carving saws we go through is ridiculous and he always pulls out some extravagant design.  Two years ago he did Bo Pelini (Nebraska's Head Football Coach - picture below) like seriously?!

Here is some inspiration for painting, if you are like me and want to take the easy way out :)

And finally the Bo Pumpkin


lets be honest - my little ghost didn't stand a chance.
