TWO

I am officially done with my Christmas shopping.  I am so excited that I got it done already and won't have to scramble for last minute gifts.  Now I'm excited to sort them all out and wrap them.  Yes, I am one of those people who sorts gifts by the person and then wraps each person's gifts in the same paper.  I also love to decorate with bows and ribbons.

Our weather this week.....no winter coats needed.  It was kind of nice to not have blistery, cold weather this week.  At the same time, I'm ready for some snow. 
 
 
 
FOUR
 
I broke down and bought one of these dam candles.  I'm kind of excited to get it, burn it and see what kind of ring I get.  I plan to burn the thing all day long the day I get it because I'm very impatient and want my ring right away.  I got one for my Mom too.

    When I had more time, I used to wrap everyone's presents in different wrapping paper! Once we have another child, I will probably go back to doing that. It will make Christmas morning less confusing and chaotic!

    He's getting so big!! I need to get or make stockings next year. I just change my mind every year on what I want.
    My parents used to wrap gifts with different paper for everyone and I'm sure I'll end up doing the same thing for the kids next year.

Blog Commenting Challenge!

Linking up with Jenna's Journey  for the 3rd Annual Blog Commenting Challenge! Hi! I'm Vanessa! I live with my husband Bryan and my amazing 6 month old Ashlyn in Pennsylvania. I was born and raised here and love it very much! We have 2 pugs, Katie and Utley, one black lab, Camo and one cat, Joey. Our second cat, Kitty, is sadly recently deceased (on Father's Day). I work full time as a Marketing Analyst for a supply chain consulting firm. I don't even know what that means really! I have been here for 3 years and am thinking about a career change. SAHM is looking better and better. My husband owns his own landscaping business which has been both wonderful and horrible at the same time! My husband and I know each other for about 17 years now and we have been together for 12. We got married in September of 2010, just 2 weeks shy of our 10th anniversary! We got pregnant after only 2 months of trying and last December we were greeted by Ashlyn Marie Miller,

I'm Not Gonna Lie

Anyone who knows me know that I LOVE Christmas.  I love the decorations.  I love to decorate my own house and see all of the other cool decorations other people have.  There is a house down the street from us that always has more lights and decorations than I have ever seen in one yard.  It's a bit much but it's an attention grabber. I love the Christmas tree.  I love to get the tree out each year (yes we have a fake because I can't stand the needles) and I love to decorate it.  Growing up, our family would decorate the tree together with all kinds of ornaments that we had collected over the years.  I like to do themes for my trees.  Last year I did pink and silver in honor of the newest member of our family.  I'm really hoping to instill the tradition of decorating the tree with my kids. I love finding the perfect gifts for people and I love to watch their reactions when they open those gifts.  I generally wait until I have purchased ALL of my gifts, I sort them

Big News!

We have been trying very hard to keep this to ourselves for just a little while longer but I can't wait anymore!    Baby Miller #2...due 09/01/13!!!!!!!!! I am 8 weeks and 1 day I have known since Christmas Eve I am much more tired and much more nauseous this time around I haven't gained a single pound yet, unlike last time I am not so secretly hoping it's another girl If this one is anything like Baby Girl, he or she will be born mid-August I've been leaving hints all over the place but no one noticed! I am so excited!   I've already had one doctor's appointment but I was only 7 weeks so there wasn't much to do.  We couldn't hear the heartbeat or anything so the next appointment will be much more exciting!  My next appointment isn't until February 11th so that's when I'll get to hear and possibly see my next little monster!  So exciting!   PS:  Notice the blog title?!
