What’s Up Wednesday: Happy Halloween!

October 31, 2018 by Rechelle 11 Comments

I can’t believe October is already over & it’s time for another link up with Sheaffer, Shay, & Mel to share what we’ve been up to for the month!

What we’re eating this week…

Cozy comfort foods like stuffed acorn squash this week and a favorite from our college days from a recipe of hubby’s Fraternity cook, Char.

What I’m reminiscing about…

Last October when we had a weekend getaway with my besties, it was dreary but I sure do love these people!

What I’m loving…

Fall baking, yum!

What we’ve beenΒ upΒ to…

Building all the furniture for Baby M’s room!

What I’m dreading…

I dislike this prompt because I prefer not to dread things, I tend to be a positive person so I’m always looking for the happy πŸ˜‰

What I’m working on…

Right now I’m all about the list making, checking off what we need to get done for Baby M, Christmas gifts, blogging, etc.

What I’m excited about…

I am so excited for my baby shower next weekend to celebrate our little lumberjack!

What I’m watching/reading…

Always watching Grey’s! We also had a Harry Potter movie marathon the last couple weeks. I fell off the reading wagon a little bit this month, sometimes I just go in cycles where I read like crazy and then take a little break, trying to get back on it though πŸ˜‰

What I’m listening to…

You Belong by Rachel Platten

What I’m wearing…

Definitely keeping this comfy with maternity jeans & usually sneakers, though I have enjoyed having fun with dressing up the bump too!

What I’m doing this weekend…

Wellllll we were supposed to go to a concert Friday night but it got cancelled last night for health reasons of one of the band members πŸ™ So we’ll see where the weekend takes us!

What I’m looking forward to next month…

My baby shower! And Thanksgiving of course, I love the kick off of the holidays!

What else is new…

I got new glasses! I wear contacts daily but honestly I hardly wear my glasses. If I do it’s usually just in the morning or at night, I’ll sit them on top of my head and only pull them down when I actually need to see something otherwise I just go around with everything blurry lol! But I figured with baby coming that I’ll be tired & for ease want glasses, especially for those middle of the night feedings. I got mine from Warby Parker and it was SO easy!

What have you been up to this month? Feel free to answer a couple of the above questions in the comments below, I love getting to know you too πŸ˜‰ Happy Halloween friends!

    Happy Howl=0=ween! Love your post… you look great in glasses! Can’t wait to hear about your baby shower… what a great theme – I love plaid! Ah, assembling furniture. I remember doing some IKEA pieces back in the day – wasn’t too hard, even without English words, although sometimes I can’t conceive things spatially. Don’t ask me about cars, though!
