Some woman gave me the side eye

     I'll do Adrian's three month post tomorrow; I forgot to take the picture. I'm dying to see how much he has changed, so I won't forget again.  He is feeling so heavy in his carseat these days, he is growing so much.

     Yesterday I went to Hobby Lobby to buy materials for my next project.  Adrian was awake and happy for the whole trip! I looked for fall wreath inspiration on pinterest and found a few pretty ones.I love fall colors so much, it's my favorite season. I should have started this in September so I would have more materials to choose from but I think it will still look nice. I'll write a post about it once I've finished it.  Here is a little preview of what this wreath entails:


       Today Mom, Michelle and Coco came to my church's Christmas craft fair.  Despite the misleading title, there were very few booths that even had handmade items, let alone Christmas crafts. I was disappointed but I still walked away with two pretty pot holders and an apron all made by the Amish.






     I may have gotten a little too excited though, I'm not sure if I'll keep the apron.  We decided to check out the new store Home Goods, which was fun although I didn't buy anything. I can't remember what I have for Christmas decorations but I don't have a whole lot of flat surfaces to decorate.  I had really been looking forward to Christmas crafts because I lack the time and will power to do them myself at the moment. I'll be lucky to get my fall wreath completed.

     I hung out at my parent's house for a bit and then went to Target for a few groceries. I got a trick-or-treat pumpkin bucket for Adrian because it was 50 cents.  I also got some teething toys for him but that's a story for tomorrow.  Adrian was asleep for half the trip and the rest of the time I tried to keep him happy by talking to him.  I've started to wonder if I look like a crazy person. I never know what to talk to him about so I end up thinking out loud or narrating what I'm doing (which I think you're supposed to do for babies but maybe not in public.) When we were at Home Goods he was in my Moby wrap and I saw this really ugly elf/santa thing.  Mom and Michelle were elsewhere and I just said out loud "that's the scariest thing ever" and some woman gave me the side eye.  Adrian is a person though, it shouldn't matter.  I'm probably just paranoid.

     I'm eagerly awaiting my birthday present, which is a dress from Modcloth (a vintage inspired clothing site.)  I plan on posting a review with a picture on their site because I think they are so helpful, so I'll post the picture on here too.  Getting mail is way too exciting :).

     In case you only put up with my incessant rambling so you can see pictures of my child, I forgive you.  Here is your reward:




     I'll be back on Sunday to tell you all about my three month old.

Hey, I like that reward! Your writing is very entertaining as well. You didn't post a picture of the dress from Modcloth. I'll be waiting.....
