MIA

I apologize for being missing in action for a month. Life got busy and hectic. Some days I was not sure which way was up. But this weekend life has slowed down a bit, at least long enough for me to take a second for myself to write.
We had an amazing rest of October which included a family birthday party for Ryan, the Storybook Hayride, Rubys first time ice skating, a Halloween party, and a great night trick or treating. 
I made Rubys Elsa costume, Ryans Sven costume and my Olaf costume so that did take up a lot of my time. Plus countless Drs appointments for myself and Ruby, gymnastics, play dates, etc. 

November so far has been crazy as well. We have started to get ready for the baby, starting by cleaning out the spare room and ripping up all the carpet. Now waiting on the installers to put the new carpet in so we can set up that room and move stuff out of the basement and mud room. Ruby and I went to the aquarium in Boston, we had a friend birthday party for Ryan, more Drs and blood tests, and now preparing for Thanksgiving. We are hosting and it will be the first time for us, so a new experience. 

But besides all the craziness that is life things are good! I am exhausted all the time and starting to get uncomfortable but it comes with the territory. So I am planning on writing more in December, I'm hoping to have a lot of my shopping done and I have started my sewing projects for Christmas. So my plan is to have some time to do things I enjoy...that's the plan. So we will see.

I really love the holidays and everything that comes along with them, so I am looking forward to sharing my favorites and traditions with you all.
