Baking
Finally having some weekends at home is giving me a chance to get some festive Christmas stuff done, like baking cookies! Though I admit I'm really struggling not to eat the cookie dough... I'm a huge sugar cookie fan and decided this year I'd do them a little differently with royal icing. I can't wait to share these with you next week!
Christmas Cards
Minted has done it again! Even though I switched the design from "the more the merrier" at the last minute, I love our cards this year! (You can see ours from last year here) And the free recipient addressing was such a good call, especially since my hand is still cramped from writing out baby shower thank yous! Definitely recommend!
Nursery Progress
Pom Pom Throw (they have lots of colors, love this one too!). Name Blocks. Elephant. |
J. Crew Factory Sale
Just wanted to give y'all a heads up, J. Crew Factory is having a huge sale in the store! My husband picked up my favorite jeans for $15. (Let's hope I can fit in them post-baby... eek!) Everything is 50% off plus you get another 15-20% off at the register. Major Christmas shopping opportunities here people! I may not fit into much but that won't stop me from raiding the accessories and shoes... or sweatpants.
Christmas Link Up
Don't forget about the last of the holiday link ups with me, Lisa, Katie, and Annie on Tuesday! Share your favorite Christmas cookie recipes, decor, traditions, etc. I can't wait to see all the festive posts!
I hope you all have a wonderful weekend! Only one more before Christmas, can you believe it?!
That elephant is so cute!! Love the Pom Pom throw! I'm a sucker for anything with Pom poms like my tree skirt! I can't wait to get your Christmas card in the mail! Have a great weekend!
