SO WHAT! Wednesday!

This week I'm saying SO WHAT! If:

• I went to work on Tuesday, but came home a few hours later sick....and what did I do?! Cleaned. Yep, I couldn't relax until the laundry was started, and the dishes were done. Just couldn't do it.
• I hate weather! end.of.story
• I'm wearing my Prom dress from 2004 to work today because I'm dressed up as Dead Cinderella for Halloween!
• I really don't enjoy carving pumpkins anymore....the only reason I do it is to get the seeds!
• I thoroughly enjoyed trashing my prom dress to get it ready for Halloween! It actually felt pretty good!!
• I really don't have anything else to say SO WHAT! to this week....

Head over to Shannon's SWW and tell us what you are saying SO WHAT! to!

For lack of a better post

This Mama is sick! I haven't been sick in a long time, but it hit me. Stuffy nose, headache, runny nose, coughing and sneezing. YUCK!
So, because I'm in no mood to write, here is what we did last night!

Happy Halloween all! And, I hope everyone who is on the East Coast is safe and sound! Praying for you!

Halloween Weekend Recap

This weekend was the first weekend that we didn't have anything to do! Andy put off his homework until Sunday, and I had a Scentsy party for Saturday, but it was cancelled. So, we took full advantage and went to the cider mill!! Chloe had a freakin BLAST! We went on all the little kiddy attractions and picked pumpkins AND bought some cider! Of course after that though, Chloe wouldn't nap, and she turned into the devil toddler, but that's besides the point! We had a lot of fun! See, take a looksie for yourself!

She is such a good poser for pictures! I love it! And she had such a good time walking around looking at the pumpkins. When we would choose one and ask her if this was ok? She would say "Noooooo......Look, Mama! Dis One!!" Adorable! Melted my heart!!

Fab Friday!

Today I am linking up with Laura from Between the Lines Blog for Fab Fridays!

So, as you seen in yesterdays post, I got me this Fabulous purse! I love it so much! It seriously hold so much stuff! Before, with my little cross body's, I couldn't carry a Scentsy catalog with me at all times, or even my REAL camera! But, now! You better believe I have it all in there! I love it!
So, today....when I pulled up to my house after getting Chloe from day care, there were 2 packages on my front porch! Oooooh boy! I knew exactly what they were too!!!!

Ladies and Gents! I finally got my Pumpkin warmer, AND my boots that I ordered from Amazon! I was SOOOO happy!!! The pumpkin warmer was ordered on the last day of September, and I got the note in my order of scent bars that it was on back order....I was very upset, because all I wanted to do was plug the damn thing in and use it! Well, today, Ladies! I get to do that! Eeeeek!
And, as for my boots, I am wearing a pair of skinny jeans that are too big on me today JUST because I wanted to wear them. But you better believe that with my extra time this weekend, I'll be going to Old Navy for a pair of red skinnies, and then probably to Marshalls to see if I can find a few pairs of regular skinny jeans! This Momma is getting her sexy back! You best believe it!

So, on top of all that awesomeness, I also got promoted in my Scentsy business to Lead Consultant! I am so happy and proud of myself, and my team! We did an Great Job!!! And, I want to also let you know, that the Scentsy Buddies are still on sale BOGO!! And now, not only is it these Buddies

But, NOW......Pookie is part of it too!!!!

How awesome is that! So, hurry and start your Christmas shopping!!! cseed.scentsy.us

Damn Things I want and Can't Have!

So, there is this bag, it's from Thirty One, and I want it OH SO BAD! But.....I just can't justify paying effing $90 for the damn thing! The bag itself is $70, shipping and personalizing and BOOM! Momma is paying $90 for that bitch!
So, for a spiff at work, I got a $25 TJ Maxx gift card, so since Andy and I were planning on meeting at Bdubs for dinner yesterday, and I had over an hour before he got to the restaurant, I decided to go!

But, seriously...look at the inside of this thing?!

I really wanted to look for pants. I'm in desperate need for some pants. Since I've lost all my baby weight, most of my pants are too big on me now. But, of course, when I have the money to spend, I don't find any pants that I like. So, what did I do? I went and looked at the purses.....and well, what do ya know? I find this beauty!

Seriously, it's huge, and I'm in love!! I can fit MY LIFE in this thing! Plus some! AND, it was only $39!! So, I paid $17 cuz I had my $25 gift card! GO ME!!!

SO WHAT! Wednesday!

This week I'm saying SO WHAT if:

• I almost completely forgot to give Chloe some milk before she went to bed last night....and we almost got away with it, until she laid down and asked for it and wouldn't let it go....Damn!
• I paid $29.55 for a pair of $80 Madden Girl boots on Amazon!
• I'm trying to tell myself that I don't need a ThirtyOne bag that cost $90.....ugh....I want it! I need it, But I'm trying to tell myself that I can't have it!
• I'm thinking about being a SAHM middle of next year. 
• I REALLY want to start tracking my eating again...seems like I've been slowly gaining, and then I lose a little, and then gain again. So I need to push myself to start tracking! I've been doing good about not gaining a TON of weight, I'm only about 2 away from my goal still. So lets see if I can hit that.
• I had NO faith in myself for Scentsy this month, but Lord, let me tell you! I did it! 1 party closed out last night, I'm over $800!! And I have another party this weekend! Whooo Hoooo!!! Maybe Mama will get that $90 bag after all!!
• I'm addicted to this new show Mob Doctors.
• Vampire Diaries is a bit more gory this season.....and I like it!

Updates on House Reno's

First and foremost, lets talk about the dining room window. This stupid window treatment, if you even want to call it that, was hideous! I could not wait to get rid of it! Gah, what were those people thinking?! So, of course we went to Ikea for the reno on that! I FREAKIN love Ikea....not the shopping there part, but the part when we get home and put all the goodies together. YAY! So we got the curtain rod from Ikea, and then we ordered the curtain and the scarf from Amazon. And, let me tell you, I'm in LOVE! Wouldn't you agree??
Didn't it turn out amazing? It's perfect too because we're kind of going with a black kind of theme with the furniture. As you seen here, our new China Cabinet from Ikea is black. So I kind of wanted to keep with that. And, when we do paint, it's probably going to be some kind of red something or another. So, I think it's going to look amazing!
                                  ***

 And then here we have the guest bedroom. Before it was nothing. We just had stuff that we weren't using in there. We had intentions of putting that room together just like our old bedroom in the old house. But that meant we were going to have to spend like 400-500 bucks on a mattress. Which, we didn't want to do. So, Andy's Mom offered up the futon they had! Um, YES PLEASE! So that worked out perfectly!! Boom! Room, DONE!

Hullabalu

hllb.lu/T0XL8t
When I was contacted by Chelsea from Hullabalu, I was like "Hulla-Ba-What?" And then I read stuffed animals, and I was sold! Now, let me tell you, Chloe has a TON of stuffed animals, so when I thought about it for a second, I was like, "Oh, great! Another stuffed animal that will just sit on her bedroom floor with the rest of them that she doesn't play with....."
Well, I'm here to tell you, that I was DEAD wrong! Chloe is IN LOVE with this stuffed animal! She has been since the very second I showed it to her out of the box when we got it in the mail! Her name is Sassy Hippo, and She is so soft and fluffy, I can hardly believe it! And, to top it all off, Chloe has been sleeping with Sassy since the day she got her! Yes! Sleeping! She is in LOVE with this hippo!!! The very first thing she did to it when I gave it to her out of the box was give her a hug and a kiss and say "awwww, I yove Hippo!!"
Here, take a look for yourself and see just how cute this Hippo is!!

She loves it, and I love that she loves it!!!

I Love Fall!!!

Last night I went to Meijer after work to grab a few things to make dinner. Came home, Andy got home with Chloe shortly after, and then he took her outside to play in the leaves while he bagged them up!
While they were enjoying the wonderful Fall day, I was inside cooking dinner.




I wasn't very proud of the dinner that I made....idk, it just wasn't that good. But anyways, that's besides the point. I got a text from Andy, while he was outside, saying that I should come outside. So I grabbed my phone and went outside. Chloe was playing in the leaves!!! Soooo cute!!

 She was just running around back and forth! She loved it!!

 She was prancing around like she owned those leaves! She was literally like marching through the pile!

 And then she would dive into the pile, and just laugh and laugh and laugh!

 "Momma! Yook! I jump in the yeaves!"

And this is what I got when I asked her to give me a smile! I love my girl!!!

This is OUR Halloween

So, this year, making my way to every single gosh darn kids clothing store I could possibly think of, I couldn't a Halloween costume that I thought would be just perfect for Chloe.....there was the cup cake, the butterfly, the dinosaur, the Wonder Woman, the Minnie Mouse....you name it, we saw it. But none of it really caught our eye. Chloe was sick of shopping, and, frankly, so was I!
So, then I came home and looked through a bag of clothes that we had gotten from a good friend of ours who have Twin Girls. I've talked about them a few times on this here blog.....they are the BEST! So, for starters, not only did Chloe get like a TON of really nice summer and Fall/Winter clothes from them, BUT she also got an Amazingly cute Butterfly Halloween Costume!!!! This Mama couldn't be anymore happy about this! For 1-it's Free!! And for 2-It's SUPER cute! What more could I ask for?!

I wish that I would have been able to get a picture of Chloe wearing it, but we are so busy at night, and last night when I wrote this post up, she was outside with Daddy playing in the leaves (post to come) while I was in the kitchen slaving over the stove making a meal that I wasn't too proud of...hmm.

So, Needless to say, I really can't wait for Halloween this year! She's going to be so cozy and warm and she's going to love running up and down the street yelling Trick-or-Treat and saying "dank you" when people give her candy!
