In case I forget to write a letter to Santa

My mom reminded me of something the other day...

I found something I hearted online and passed it along to her for a Christmas gift idea. Then she replied, "You know, you have a birthday coming up before that." Oh gosh she's right! I think with having a baby due in October and then Cohen's birthday in November I had completely forgotten. Oh my is it really happening? Are my children ACTUALLY making me less selfish? PLEASE let it be so.

Since then I've seen a few more things and I thought I'd pass them along. Not so I can get them as gifts. Just because the blog needs to be updated and I thought you might like to see these items too ;o)

Here goes...

French Bull

(Taylor, not sure if you've seen this company but I knew you'd love the name and logo.) I had seen their stuff around in different shops in town but found a link to their website and saw ALLL the stuff they have to choose from. I mainly want a picnic set. 1. because the weather is cooling off and I want to take my boys on a picnic. They won't appreciate the cute dinnerware BUT I WILL!

One Line a Day Memory Book

This book is so appealing to be because of all the things I didn't write down with Cohen that I hope to write down (Lord help me) with little brother. Its just one line each day. I can do it. I can. I swear.

Tupperware

I want some tupperware containers. Partially because I'm old fashioned and also because the $19.99 set of like 42 bowls with lids I bought at Bed Bath & Beyond are, well... not cutting it. I'm not sure the tops ever did fit the correct bowls and certainly cannot be located now that a (remaining nameless) 21 month old has rearranged the cabinet going on 500 times.
I would also like some of these strictly because I drank out of them, think they're cute, and fear they will stop making them one day.

Auburn Shirt

I need to replace the Auburn gear that I have had since college. After two babies and lots of sweaty armpits, suffice it to say they don't fit like they used to. I think I'd prefer the classics. Maybe this and this. Football seasons starts next week and while I REALLY wish for a trip to the plains I don't think that's in the cards this year. Next year though, get in the suburban boys we're taking a trip!! Cohen's gonna FLIP I know it.

That's all I can think of at the moment and this has been a really long post so I'm off to rest my weary body for a few minutes before crazy wakes up. We're napping in the big bed this weekend. It hasn't been too bad but I'm dreading the nights. Any advice?

Tootles.
