Ramblings of a Suburban Mom

Today I’m smiling because:

~I’m smiling today because unlike last Saturday B and I do NOT have this flu today. Thank goodness. Honestly I still think I am recovering from that mess. It wiped us OUT!

~B and I had a date night last night and went to Painting With a Twist! I really enjoyed painting. I thought I would like it, but I enjoyed it even more than I had expected. Totally relaxing. And honestly, not difficult. I will do a full review / post on it, but they walk you through EVERYTHING and really make it easy.

B’s is the top one. MIne is the bottom.

~The Elf on the Shelf is bringing up Christmas magic daily! He either hides in a silly spot (he heard L liked that) and / or brings us Christmas goodies. So far he’s brought Christmas cookies, a Christmas tree in L’s room, pajamas for both boys and yesterday he brought us gingerbread house kits which we worked on right away! L LOVED making it. OMG. He was so into it. Today’s project is decorating the christmas tree. The least the elf could have done was brought some bins up from the basement, but no. He was all tangled up in the fan instead.

Loves it!

~Michigan State is playing tonight in the Big Ten Title game! Ahh, I am so nervous!

~We got December PopSugar Must Have box spoilers yesterday! Eeek! And fingers crossed we are going to hear something about the Limited Edition for Her box today as well!

~We found a way to get L excited about practicing this handwriting. It’s the “Handwriting without Tears” iPhone app and it’s fabulous. We got him a stylus and he’s all over it. I knew they used that curriculum at school, but I had no idea there was an app until Parent-Teacher conferences. It’s a hit!

The app

~I got my Honest Co. order yesterday and couldn’t help but smile when I saw that they included a tree to plant in the box as a holiday gift! They are right, it is the gift that keeps giving!

The Tree

~WB has been talking more and more (he’s not much of a talker – more of a yeller) lately and it cracks me up when I follows me to the door and calls the dogs inside. I love it.  I love it!  He’s a wild and crazy little boy, but he is the sweetest little thing.  My goodness he is sweet.

The WB (cold and annoyed)

That’s it from here!  What’s got you smiling today?  Any big plans for the weekend?
