{Made my list and checked it twice… a little Christmas shopping}

Productive weekend over here. One of those where you cross one thing after another off your list. From finishing up Christmas shopping to completing the nursery (with a few minor things needed here and there) the weekend flew by. There was some down-time though… a nice Italian date night dinner, an easy Sunday morning, and closing out the weekend with a family dinner. We laughed that since we frantically crossed so many items off our list in the chance that Harper would make her appearance a little early, she will now arrive late. Then I was reminded of the fact that “God’s timing is perfect timing.” So, we will simply wait and enjoy the holidays until she arrives!

Cookies and holiday parties make #eatingclean slightly more challenging! Making a batch of my favorite oatmeal bake to ensure healthy breakfasts and incorporating this push up move into my daily routine.

Loving the addition of a little faux fur to any outfit… and rounded up a few favorites here, which would be perfect gifts or an addition to a holiday ensemble. Loving this infinity scarf, ear muffs, and throw blanket to make any cool day a little cozier. Have a holiday party to attend? This wine bottle holder is so cute! Of course, if you’re looking for a bit more faux fur check out this beautiful coat, knit vest, and parka!
