{Yays & Boos}

YAY:I love sweaters. So glad the weather here is cold enough to actually wear them (believe it or not the mountains all around us are snow covered).
BOO:Too bad all my favorite sweaters are getting a little snug around the pregnant belly area. I'm at the stage where my clothes are starting to get snug but maternity just drowns me. Ugh.YAY:Clementines! They are sweet, tangy and super juicy bits of heaven.
BOO:I can't stop eating them. I eat at least 5 a day.YAY:We're starting to get Christmas cards from friends and family. I love looking at the pictures and reading what's going on with everyone. (I had to black out our Christmas card - Ella insisted on decorating our card and having it up with the others).
BOO:I'm too lazy to think of a cute way to display our cards. How do you display your cards?YAY:Christmas candy and treats can be found in abundance at our house. Self control Erica...self control.
BOO:Christmas treats and candy can be found in abundance at our house.YAY:I just love homemade ornaments.
BOO:Wishing I opted to do a kids tree this year. Next year for sure they kids will have their own fun tree.YAY:I love my slipper socks. They might not be the cutest looking slipper socks I've had but they are the most comfortable.
BOO:I'm going to have to get Ella some of her own. If I take mine off for a second you can bet she's wearing them. Anyone know where to get slipper socks for kids?YAY:For old pictures that bring back great memories. Don't you love the moon boots and ear muffs?
BOO:Saw a woman around my age (28) sporting some moon boots the other day with her jeans tucked into them. What?!! So not a fan of that look!

What are some of your Yays & Boos?

Clementines are the best! Love them.

We just tape our Christmas cards to the door. Tacky maybe, but it works!

There is a lady that wears moon boots with her skirt to church every week during the winter.

My husband ate a whole big bag of Clementines (from Costco) in just two days, all by himself...

Our Christmas cards are taped to the back of the front door, too...

Megan and Shawn said...

Amen to the wierd, tight fitting pregnancy stage! So sick of it! We tape ours to our wall, they are one of the only decor we have, so we love looking at them. And I guess I'll have to put my moon boots back into the closet... geeze!)

Cristy said...

Aw, you caught me with my Moon boots on again! :) OH my gosh you guys were the cutest kids ever! So glad my kids have your genes!!!

Slice of life said...

loving the slipper socks. Want some myself. It is snowing here. Very lightly. But any snow means everything stops here as the council dont buy enough grit for the season.

So my yay is I might not be going to work tomorrow.

Sarah said...

Yay: I finally mailed my Christmas cards off today!
Boo: I did not order enough, what was I thinking? And I'm not sure the ones going to Canada will get there before Christmas. At least I sent them, though! :)

We also just tape ours to a door, the girls love looking at them.

You and your brothers are ADORABLE.

Courtney said...

I love that your brother is holding a gun and looks like he's going hunting!

The weather has been chilly here too. We've taken out our long sleeves and jackets.

We tape up our Christmas cards on one of the doors we can see all the time. I know some will put them on the outside of their front door so others can see them.

Hope pregnancy is treating you well. Wish I could be there to help in any way.

Hi Erica!
There's a little surprise for you at my blog. Here.
Hope to read your "makes me happy list" :)
Have a fun evening!

Erica, Love the slipper socks! My kids love them too. I buy them a new pair every year from Hanna Andersson. Swedish Moccasins, my kids love them and they come in all sorts of colors and designs and I think they are a great price for something that last and last! I have bought them for them since they were little babies and they have not worn out with either one. My little girl was able to wear my sons and they still looked like new. Sorry this post is a little long. Go to her website! Love love love it!
