this is the fire place i went into buy
this is the one i bought. ha. i simply adore it, the color, the size and snappiness of it. i am so super stoked to actually own a fire place and most important. i can now hang my super cool minnie christmas sock from it. i will also hang c's mickey sock. much to his protests. now i have to get one for nathaniel. i am ever so painfully slowly moving/settling in. i had no idea having a toddler would slow the process down so much! i am trying to come up with a new flow (routine) for us. i have discovered that i must shower before i get nathaniel up. why? a few mornings ago i had the bright idea to let him wonder around my room while i showered. really now, how much trouble can he get into? as i showered away, nathaniel would drop by to see how i was doing and drop random items into the shower with me. i ended up with cloths, bottles, toys, hair brushes, shoes landing at my wet feet.
i have no started to decorate for the holidays yet. i will not put up 1 tiny decoration until dec 1. i can't wait to start. the last time i decorated was 2 yrs ago and i was sick the whole time. i thought it was the flu. come to find out a was just knocked up :)
tonight is the wow christmas banquet. i am excited to go. it's always fun to hang out with other mom's. i am really excited about my date, in keeping with my personal tradition of finding someone i don't know and sitting with them- i asked a young mom to sit with me. i don't know her other than her name. should be fun!
