Wake up!!!

This might be a little silly to complain about...but my baby sleeps WAY too much! I get so bored around here. This was my day yesterday:
8:00 he wakes up
8:30-9:30- exercising/getting ready/picking up
12:00-12:30 home from doing misc stuff and eating lunch
1:00 down for a nap
3:30 finished laundry, getting bored
4:00 still waiting
4:30 watching my ceiling fan
5:00 finally!
No joke- for real this baby can sleep! And he still went to bed at 8:30 without a problem. I shouldn't complain but a girl can go a little crazy stuck in a house all day!

I hung up my cute Halloween wreath this week and decided my house needed to be a bit more festive, but I don't love lots of Halloween decor. I wanted a cute mantle display and really just don't like the decor that is up right now (the gray vase and gray candlesticks on each side of the TV). So I decided I was going to return it all and went out to buy lots of autumn/thanksgiving/could pass for Halloween decorations and put them up. It turned out really cute. Gotta' love Hobby Lobby- everything on the mantle was less than $25!




Austin loves the scarecrow. He waves and says, "Hi!" every time he walks past.







My mantle has been the hardest thing to decorate in my house- just the day to day house decor and it has been driving me crazy. For now I will leave the Halloween/Thanksgiving decor up then replace it with Christmas decor and come Jan 1st I will re-evalate the mantle debate. I know, big problems I am faced with day to day.

Of course, I have to add a sweet picture of my little baby (minus the yogurt face) to remind me that when he yells, "....ummm, NO!" to me all day, he is still my favorite person.

I agree with you: YOU SHOULD NOT COMPLAIN!!! If you have another one he/she will probably make up for it. Then you will have no time to worry about that mantle. I like your decor.

I am jealous I swear Keithens nap times last like 2 minutes (or seem like it) He totally looks like a harris, he is getting so big. Love your decorations, I wish I was motivated and creative!
