I’ve been working on Annabelle’s ballerina bedroom all week and love what I’ve made. Here are my Friday Favorites!
one. crafty nesting nester.
Apparently the only time I am ever interested in crafting is when I am pregnant. I made wreaths and a cork monogram with Annabelle. With this baby, I’ve been painting and modge podgeing and all week long. I’ve definitely been hit with a weird third trimester energy burst during the day – but at night I can barely walk.
two. big girl bed.
Guess who slept in her big girl bed from 9:30 – 5:00?! ANNABELLE! I have to admit, I was a little bit sad thinking how we have a big girl now and not a little baby… but we have a baby on the way and I literally slept almost the whole night in my bed without having a tiny toddler kicking me in the back. It was awesome. Hopefully tonight goes just as well!
three. Starbucks at home. 
I love iced tea but it never tastes the same when I make it at home as it does from Starbucks. Apparently these Starbucks iced tea concentrates have been around for awhile – but I just noticed them at Target the other day and I’m hooked. I bought their iced coffee too, just haven’t tried it yet!
four. saving my money.
I’ve never been good at saving my money for something big. I usually make a little moolah from blog campaigns and end up just letting it go into our joint bank account, instead of putting it aside to buy something fun. I have had my eye on a Louis Vuitton Neverfull in Damier Azur for years, but can’t stomach the price tag.
There are a couple of different websites that carry used designer purses that I know my friends use… so now I have a little envelope where I stick my monies from blog jobs hidden. Once I hit my goal, Momma’s gonna get a brand new bag.
five. 35 weeks.
How oh how have we reached 35 weeks pregnant already? But it still feels like an eternity until my due date?! We aren’t quite ready for the new baby in this house – but I promise in two weeks (when I’m full term) if you want to come on out, no one will be upset. I especially think Annabelle would be REALLY happy if you came early. So think about it Baby A…
Oh and by the way… I accidentally shared our little girl’s name on the blog yesterday – but only two people caught it!
I’m the same way about saving! I’m purchasing a bed frame next month so I’m trying to put away money every week for that. I will have to try out that iced tea concentrate! Jess at Just Jess
Haha, I caught the name too. 😉
FYI, my sister has that bag and I remember she had a problem with her denim dye rubbing off on to it. She was so upset, but they replaced the bag no questions asked.
Oh! So glad to have found your blog! Thanks for the comment on mine. You are a gorgeous pregnant, Mama! I am 29 weeks so not too far behind you but I feel you it seems like an eternity until my due date. Yay for sleeping in big girl bed! And it’s precious!
Aw I missed the name slip… My SIL let ours slip on fb but I erased her comment ?. I want to have some element of surprise since I share so much already. The LV Neverfull was my big savings goal last year and I absolutely love it!
I’m saving for the same bag but in the monogram! I think I will be brining mine home in a few weeks. Can’t wait!
Ah! I missed the baby name yesterday. Did you delete it? Annabelle’s big girl bed looks super comfy! I know that transition can be hard. My niece was up all night her first night in her big girl bed!

I have been eyeing up the never full for a while now too! I want it so bad but can’t justify it right now. One day!
