Confessional Friday

• I confess that all I seem to think about is my next meal. Can you say "pregnant"?

• I confess that the town I live in is wonderful during the months of May through September. However, "season" has officially begun here in SWFL and there are accidents to prove it. I love that the snowbirds keep our economy here booming but do wish they drove just a tad better, just a tad. 

• I confess that I am enjoying people taking notice of this growing belly

• I confess that I will be making a shopping trip this Saturday because of the above. I received a 20% off coupon from Old Navy which means I can buy more, right?

• I confess that we haven't done a thing to the nursery. It's a disaster. I order decorations all the time via Etsy but can't find the time to put them up. 

• I confess that I am over-the-moon excited it is Friday. I love the weekends!

What I'm Loving Wednesday

I thought I would start trying to post a "What I'm Loving Wednesday" every, well Wednesday based on the season we are in. Since I live in Florida, it's pretty much summer all year long but I can pretend. Here it is.


I'm Loving the fact that it is Wednesday and that the Lord has given me another day.

I'm Loving I was able to hear baby girl's heartbeat this past Monday. She is growing as expected and it's getting more real every day.

I'm Loving my husband and all he does. Sometimes it seems as though he never takes a break but I know he is just taking advantage of this time before little one is here. He challenges me and for that, I'm grateful.

I'm Loving my sweet puppy. How could you not?

I'm Loving the fact that the humidity is dropping just a tiny bit...oh how I wish it would just dip below 80 degrees during the afternoons.

I'm Loving all the pumpkin, apple, caramel, and cinnamon recipes that are on Pinterest. 

And I'm Loving all the decoration ideas via Pinterest. I seriously need to make a trip to Hobby Lobby ASAP
