Christmas Ornaments

Have you decorated your house for the holidays yet? I'm almost done, only the Christmas tree missing! I always have a different color theme for my tree every year, and that means I have a lot of different christmas ornaments.

Baby countdown... 38 days to go!

We're getting closer and closer everyday! Imagine there is just over a month until my due date! So exciting! I bought almost everything I need for the baby already, I've unpacked all of my sons "old" baby clothes, and man are they tiny! It's hard remember him ever being that tiny! So I'm expecting a new years eve baby but I'm kinda hoping my little one will hold on for a day or two, so he/she won't have to be the last one of all its friends to celebrate a birthday, take a drivers license, etc etc.. This was me this summer, my bump is  way bigger now lol ♥

Winter apples for the birds DIY

We're almost at the middle of November and it's starting to get colder outside. This also means a lot of birds that may need a bit of help finding food . An easy way is to combine some bakers twine, apples and cinnamon sticks to make a fun little bird feeder. Thread the bakers twine trough the apples and attach a cinnamon stick on top and one on the bottom. Voila!  Do you usually put out food to help the birds survive winter?
