Happy Friday!! It's been a bit of a crazy week here with taking Xavier out of daycare and moving him to in-home care. We decided to take him out of daycare because we wanted him to get more personalized attention. The girl we found to watch him is so wonderful! Along with all the little things she does for him, she consistently sends me pictures of Xavier throughout the day, which means so much. Seeing that smiling face come through on my phone makes me not even second guess that we made the right decision.
Now on to some Favorites for your Friday! I could totally go for some old fashioned TGIF, the way I used to do it back in the day - snuggled up on the couch with freshly popped corn. Maybe some Full House or Step By Step?! Who's with me? (haha)
Friends!
Now on to some Favorites for your Friday! I could totally go for some old fashioned TGIF, the way I used to do it back in the day - snuggled up on the couch with freshly popped corn. Maybe some Full House or Step By Step?! Who's with me? (haha)
1. Halloween Books - I was so excited to get out Xavier's Halloween books this year (and to add some new ones to the collection). They make story times a little more festive. Some of our favorites are Room on a Broom, Ghosts in the House, and Goodnight Goon. Of course, Where the Wild Things Are is festive as well! All of his books are displayed on hanging photo ledges I found at Target. I'm looking forward to switching his books out with the seasons!
2. Holiday Garlands and Fall Decor - My favorite burlap garland I found on Etsy made a return to our house again this season. It's no longer sold by the shop owner, but if you search for fall garlands in Etsy, you will get tons of hits.
3. I almost did a backflip in the Starbucks at Barnes & Noble the other day when I saw my all-time-favorite Starbucks drink - non-fat, no water, chai tea latte - is now available for purchase in the bag! Just add frothy milk. Easy. I bet to get that "no water" spicier flavor, some additional mix will need to be added. I'm up for some trial & error!

4. Apple Pie - We took Xavier on a trip to the apple orchard a couple weeks ago and finally got around to making some delicious apple pie. It tastes so much better with honey crisp apples right off the tree! We used this Pillsbury recipe and it hit the spot!
5. Festive Party Supplies - I just picked up some Halloween and Christmas supplies from Etsy. I bought paper straws, cupcake holders and toppers, and goodie bags. I'm thinking we should do an open house party this year complete with friends and board games so I can show this stuff off! Haha
Happy weekend!
