Moments of Musing

1. It. Is. December. How’d this happen?! I do not know. We’re in for a big and busy month and despite my dread of a lack of slowness sometimes, it’s my favorite time of year and it’ll be full of much joy. (Don’t forget to enter my Threadtank giveaway over on my Instagram–today’s the last day to do so!) Oh, and how about my new blog design? New month, almost new year, new look!

2. We recently ordered and received our Christmas cards and I love them. Can’t wait to share them with you!

3. We move out of our apartment this weekend — and despite me being super excited, it is bittersweet boding farewell to our first place together in NY and to the place we brought our firstborn home to. These walls hold such amazing memories and I hope the next renters get to experience the same.

4. Life is so weird and hard and funny and great and amazing. Things just seem to work out how they’re meant to and that just always astonishes me.

5. I am excited to get into Christmas mode. Aside from listening to Christmas music, I haven’t done any shopping or decoration. I’m hoping to change that ASAP.

Wishing you a very Merry December!

1. I’m obsessed with the ruffled and bell sleeve trends going on right now. When I saw this sweatshirt I had to have it. It seems my husband, brother and little cousin don’t agree. When I saw each of them (separately), the first thing they asked was, “What are you wearing?”


2. Did I ever tell you all that it took me about a year to reach (or go slightly under) my pre-baby weight? I will admit I felt great for most of the year, which is probably why I didn’t kick my butt into high gear until this past summer. 

3. Our weekends have been jam packed. I recently alluded to this on my Instagram. We’ve been running around like crazy, for an exciting reason! I’ll divulge more on that soon… but it may or may not have to do with an upcoming move. 😉

4. We leave for Michigan next week and I’m so excited. I think the foliage will be so pretty and seeing family is always a treat.

5. We had to reschedule our family photo shoot last weekend to this weekend due to rain. The forecast this weekend looks promising so I’m excited. 

Have a great weekend!
