ELEVEN MONTHS

Can take 4, 5, 6 steps at a time – full on walking any day now.
Went from two teeth to seven!
Figured out how to grind said teeth.
Has said “mama” and “dada” like he means it.
True loving on his giant bunny lately.
MET Santa and didn’t cry for the first 30 seconds.
Enamored with everything he shouldn’t – dishwasher, cabinets, console table, remote, refrigerator, Roxie’s bed and now, the stairs…
He climbed up the entire staircase his first go.
Give this kid leaves and he’ll be the happiest camper.
Mini gold fish are his jam.
At a point where he loves being in his car seat. We thought that would n e v e r happen.
I know I sound like a broken record but books, books and more books.
Drinks out of his own water cup with a straw.
Makes a perfect elephant noise.
Does this foot shuffle thing when he’s super happy. We think it’s an equivalent to a dog wagging his tail.
Can laugh on demand. It’s pretty darn cute.

—My man,

This mama of yours is already planning your FIRST birthday party. With parties, birthdays, Christmas and then New Year’s I don’t want it to be a last minute scramble. I want it to be great. Because you’re great. 
I swear everyday you grow leaps and bounds. You’re changing before our eyes and I wish time would just slow down a second. I must say though, you’re the sweetest little man. You say hello to practically everyone, share your food and give the best hugs. You’ve been super cuddly lately, which I think is because you’ve sprouted like 4 new teeth in the past week! But regardless, I’ll take it. Seeing you around all our Christmas lights and watching you boogie to holiday tunes makes me smile SO big. This time of year has always been my favorite, but you kid, you make it magical. The world is merrier and brighter with you in it little man. 

Mama loves you. 


Room

I wore this dress over Thanksgiving.
So yeah, there was room for me, a staked plate full of turkey, mashed potatoes, cheesy potatoes, sweet potato casserole, stuffing, cranberry, asparagus casserole and at least a taste of every dessert.

Hudson might have tried a little bit of everything – he especially loved the sweet potato.

Gather

The table(s) are set and we’re so excited to have (almost) everyone over today.

Christmas tunes are playing, holiday candles are lit and a turkey is roasting in the oven.

Today, and everyday, I whole heartedly give thanks. 

Have a beautiful Thanksgiving holiday, folks.

One Lantern – Three Ways + Giveaway

I’m a sucker for crafting my own holiday decor…
I mix and match, wrap, tie, switch out. I call it “tinkering.”
I’m into e v e r y t h i n g – making it festive and fun.
Tis the season, am I right?!

Same thing when it comes to gifting – I want it to be unique, special and personal.

When I saw this lantern at Hallmark I just HAD to have it.
The laser cut snow-flakes, subtle gold tones and white distressed wood goes perfectly in our home.
I thought of so many cool ways to display it, use it and possibly even gift it.


Here’s how I worked this lantern into a beautiful outdoor center piece, a botanical vase and a perfect holiday gift idea: 

So I think I’ll keep the lantern outside for now.
It’s going to set the mood and tone for so many magical nights out there. Good conversation, tasty beverages and countless memories. That’s what the real message is right, collect moments not things?

But because it’s the season for giving, I’ll giveaway that cute little mason jar!

Enter to win this plastic mason jar filled with lotion, body wash and a loofa: 
  • Visit Hallmark’s site and find another holiday item you’d love 
  • Leave a comment below with your pick and what you love most about the holidays
  • Winner picked at random and announced Dec 10th – good luck!
