Baby room update!!

Entering Baby's Room!!!

We are so excited for this little one to get here but this is a tour of the room after I got everything pretty much put away! I haven't really felt like doing much since I have just a few days left until my due date which I feel this kid of mine may just stay in my belly forever! 

Here is the crib and the abc's I got on sale at meijer for $3.47 for a whole pack of letters (tons left over) so when baby gets here we can put the name on the wall as well!!!

More clothes than I have!!! and a I have a nice stash of size 1's and wipes in here too... The basement has my size 2 and 3 stash! 

Better picture of the bedding! I love it so much now it just needs a baby to be sleeping in there!!!

Changing table area! I'm going to regret this next statement but I can't wait to change baby on there!!! :)

behind the door hooks... baby bath robe, shopping cart cover, nursing cover and baby coat! 

Shelves above changing table... We have way too many cute things

here are only a few of the books we have and a really cute frame we got! our kid has so many books already probably enough to start a childrens library! 

I will continue to "take it easy" as I was told by the doctors and wait it out... the baby will be here soon!!!

Movie review 7

I will tell you what the older I get the more I fall in love with this movie every year... and I do watch it every single year in black and white! I have never seen the color version but I do know its out there! If this doesn't melt your heart and make you happy then I don't know what will.

As a kid I didn't appreciate this movie like I do now as an adult, I think kids get distracted if a movie doesn't have bright colors to keep them interested and then as a teenager, I don't know what my problem was but now its one of my very favorite Christmas time movies! 

Here is a picture when "George gets his wish"

Please watch this movie and feel free to leave a comment about it but trust me it is one of the best movies and its perfect for a "movie night in" with your significant other, cuddle on the couch, drink hot chocolate and enjoy a classic!

Movie reviews 5 & 6...

The Santa Clause 2 and 3.......

Ok, so I loved the Santa Clause... Therefore I went out and bought the next two... the second one I really liked and there were some very sweet moments and some very hilarious moments and I feel that kids and adults would both enjoy "the Mrs.Clause" however the third and final movie was horrible if you ask me. They were really trying hard to put that one together. The story line wasn't great and I honestly don't even think kids would really like that one! One of the biggest Christmas movie disappointments out there!!

This is by far my favorite part in the Santa Clause 2... He goes on a date with this lady that would be "perfect" for santa... She loves everything about Christmas, notice her sweater! she even sings him a song which makes him very uncomfortable! I laugh every time at this part!! 

The Santa Clause 3 "escape clause" is my least favorite of all of them. It really didn't have very "memorable" parts if you ask me! The acting was pretty bad as well!! Which is sad because I love Tim Allen and Martin Short, you would think the two of them together would have been hilarious but not so much.... 

I hope you enjoy some Christmas movies this season and please feel free to share when you have found a great one!

Movie #4

ELF...

"Buddy the Elf, What's your favorite color?"

This movie is one of my favorites and I could watch and do watch it year round...  This movie is appropriate for families to watch, there are jokes in there for adults and its entertaining for children.

I have seen this movie so many times that I quote lines from this movie all the time.. as seen above! 

I say to my husband all the time "I'm in love, I'm in love, I'm in love and I don't care who knows it" 

another favorite quote that is said quite often is "Oh, he's an angry elf."

There are just so many great quotes from this movie... more about the movie...

Its about a human raised in an Elf world that travels to find his Father in NYC. He travels through the seven levels of the Candy Cane forest, through the sea of swirly twirly gum drops, and then walked through the Lincoln Tunnel. 

Once he gets to NYC he experiences life in a whole new way and helps people find the spirit of Christmas...

JUST WATCH IT.. Trust me you won't be disappointed! 

Also Happy Election Day

Don't forget to cast your vote!

Movie #3

Jeff Dunham's very special Christmas special

This movie is one for when the kids are asleep... I wouldn't consider this really Christmas at all... there are a few parts that talk about Christmas but for the most part its just a regular Jeff Dunham show... Bad language makes it not so good for kids!!! 

The funniest scenes were those with Achmed the dead terrorist... "Silence! I kill you!" and when Guitar guy comes on stage to help him preform "jingle bombs" which is pretty funny! 

The movie as a whole made me laugh a few times but for the most part not that hilarious... I really would not recommend this movie to anyone asking for a "Christmas" Movie... I was browsing my Amazon Prime movies and seen it and thought I'd review it tonight for the blog... but in all honesty I will just stick with the good old Christmas movies and ones recommended by people I know!

I hope you enjoy a good Christmas movie and feel free to suggest a movie for me to watch and review!!!

Movie #2....

Home Alone...

Its pretty much a classic now! 

First of all I want to start off by saying that I even watch this movies sometimes in the dead of summer just because I miss Christmas so much!! It is such a hilarious family movie! I love it so much!! and I'm on the only one... here is the link to its IMDB page with rating and description...

http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0099785/

For those of you who have not seen this movie stop reading and just go out and buy it!! The holiday season just isn't complete without this flick...

About a boy left a home while his entire family goes away overseas... mid-flight the family realizes he is missing and spends the rest of the movie trying to get back home to him, mean while he is there taking care of business being the "man of the house".

This is a picture of one of my favorite scenes where the "bad guys" are in the house trying to get him but he does a really great job of outsmarting them...

Its one of the best movies and I have been watching it for as long as I can remember... it came out in 1990 and I was 3 that Christmas so pretty much my whole life! 

I hope you all enjoy this one as much as I do!!! 

Tonight I finished the movie a little early so I thought I'd go ahead and do my entry so I don't forget! We are going to be busy tomorrow. We plan to do some home winterizing around the windows, fix a broken gutter from the windstorm earlier this week and maybe even hang our Christmas lights before it gets too much colder, snowy or icy! This is the first weekend since we bought our house that my husband has Saturday and Sunday off, and we aren't going to someones house and we aren't getting company! Home Improvement weekend!!! 

Christmas Movie #1.....

First night and I watched "The Santa Clause" with Tim Allen... 

THE FIRST ONE.... 

This movie is so fun to watch... It has been a favorite of mine since I was a kid. Watching it now as an adult I hear things that went over my head as a kid which makes it that much better now! 

This is one of my favorite parts in the movie where "Scott Calvin" first gets to the north pole and meets the elf "Judy"... I don't want to give any of the movie away in case some of you haven't seen it... but I will say this its such a great movie for a family to sit down and watch! So I recommend getting this one asap! 

I will leave you with my favorite quote from this movie....

"Seeing isn't believing, believing is seeing.... Kids don't have to see this place to know its here, they just know."

You should really apply that to your Christmas Season anyway... 

More Movie reviews to come!!! Who knows what will be next!!!

Holiday Season 2012 Begins!

I'm always so happy and excited this time of year.. every year (which just further proves I'm a human sized elf from the north pole) I enjoy EVERYTHING from cooler weather, Thanksgiving, hearing all the good stories of people helping each other out in different ways, seeing Christmas lights go up and Christmas songs come on... Kids in the store that get excited just seeing a picture of Santa... It

 was the "Holiday Season" that I met the love of my life, we got engaged on Christmas morning a few years later....This year we have our first baby coming during this wonderful time year (In just a month or so!) I am so blessed and Thankful for everything I have and all the people I have in my life! So glad its "that time of year" Remember to take it slow this time of year, spend time with loved ones, forgiving people who need forgiven.... Enjoy the little things, Christmas songs, baking cookies, the lights... take it all in! Most of all smile... the holidays aren't supposed to be a stressful time of year they are supposed to be a magical time of year full of love and happiness... :)

With that being said I am going to shift the blog a bit and start my Holiday talk... I want to start a project reviewing some Christmas movies... So I am going to start this Month and try to do a review a day and I'd like to watch a Christmas movie every day until Christmas... but I can say that wont happen because sometime I will be in the hospital having my little one between now and Christmas so I will miss a few days at least... but I will do my best to do a daily movie update from now until the baby comes anyway.... I will also blog about other things going on this "holiday season"... Baking projects, maybe a few DIYs.... the more pregnant I'm getting the less I feel like doing... My craft room is down in the basement and I can't be on the steps by myself during the day in case I were to fall or something but I will do what I can!!! 

Enjoy my blog, and Enjoy this time of year!!!

Please feel free to recommend any movies for this time of year!
