Christmas is coming.

Sorry I've been so MIA recently. Just finished exams today and hoping I am truly done (still a chance of remediation next week if I didn't do well). I am exhausted. Mind and body-wise. These past few weeks have been just a lot in general. And I shoved so much into my brain these last week that I truly thought it was going to burst. But, I didn't cry during finals week for the first unit. Such an accomplishment! haha. And I learned a lot this unit, plus it went by SO fast this time. I feel like it's only been a few weeks, but lo and behold, it's been way more. And I'm now 3/5 done with the first year!! Wowza.

So, now it's time to get excited about Christmas!! Yes, please!

Here are some pics of Christmas tree shopping the day after Thanksgiving and Eloise loving the Christmas tree. It's the sweetest. The poor baby is not feeling too hot right now and screamed a lot tonight, but tomorrow we go Christmas shopping. If she's really my daughter, it will probably lift her spirits a bit. :)

P.S. Very soon I will be posting a fun giveaway from one of my absolute favorite places. Get ready. Starts with Land and ends with Nod. :)

* Giveaway closed!* Would you like to win some Chewbeads ? Well, here's a chance to win a necklace in your choice of style ( Hudson or Jane ) and color!! Wahoo!! Keep reading... **Additional note: If anyone has had any trouble commenting below, please feel free to e-mail me: colleen.staff@gmail.com, and I will either add the comment(s) for you or somehow make sure you are in the running!** You may already know that I love Chewbeads (to be honest, I think I've worn them almost every day this week), so I'm really excited about this giveaway. In case you haven't heard much about them... Chewbeads are baby-safe jewelry, especially great for teething (although I'm pretty sure you'll want to wear them way after the teething stops). Here are a few of the specifics, straight from their site : - Beads are made with 100% silicone (similar to pacifiers & nipples) - Soft on babies gums and emerging teeth - Easily cleaned with dish soap & water,

Land of Nod Giveaway!!! (CLOSED)

Giveaway is CLOSED. Giveaway, it's a giveaway!!! $50 Land of Nod Gift Card! I'm obsessed with The Land of Nod . I'm sure this is no surprise. As you know, a whole lot of Eloise's room came from there. And we continue to loooove, love, love their products. SO, just recently, they came out with some amazing and adorable new products . I can't get over how cute the new beddings are...these would have seriously been in the running for EA had they existed then. And the blue Jenny Lind bed is the perfect shade of aqua, all funky and polished at the same time. In love. And, if you happen to like poufs, too, a faux leather (and somewhat cheaper) version of one for kids (or adults). Oh, yes, and the rugs...seriously amazing... I need to stop. Anyways, these sweet people at the Land of Nod have offered to give one lucky reader a 50 dollar gift card . Yep, that's right. I'm pretty stinking excited. I kind of wish I could enter! For details,

Another Chewbeads Giveaway - Open until 6/11.

YAY! Another Chewbeads Necklace Giveaway – the Turquoise Hudson ! Giveaway will close on Monday, 6/11 at 10pm – winner will be announced by Wednesday evening. So, this go around, the necklace is a gift from me as a thank you for reading or visiting this tiny little blog. Also, because it’s really fun to give stuff away. So, I’ll be giving away one specific necklace, the Turquoise Hudson , since it seemed to be the overall favorite last time! Chewbeads have actually even improved since the last giveaway - they're now lighter weight and don't snag on long hair! You all know I’m a little obsessed with them , and I still wear them, even with E at 16 months. Actually, she was just chewing on them the other day (same day as the pic above– I swear she chews on them, I just never catch it). And – she cries for the Charles bangles when I wear them. She’s convinced they are hers, I assume. So...Who can enter? Anyone – Old readers, new
