Cookie Swap

This weekend was super busy. Thank you Jesus I felt better. Saturday we cleaned the house, emptied some of the nursery, did laundry, went to the store and baked 4 dozen cookies! It was a very busy day. But we did something Friday night that was SOOOO exciting. We ordered Baby Knights crib & dresser. We debated back and forth forever on two different cribs & dressers. We are both really happy with what we decided on. Here is a picture of both. 

SOO excited. We already got an email that the crib had shipped! Woohoo! However, that means we have got to get on emptying out that room and getting it painted. After dinner on Friday night we went to Lowes and got three paint samples. We think we decided on paint color too. Woohoo! Now who wants to come help paint!?!? : ) 


Today we got up and I did some last minute picking up, lighting the candles & fireplace, sweeping one last time before the 1st Cookie Swap began. My friend Natalie and I decided we wanted to host a cookie swap and every year invite a few more people. This year it was just our team (well my team from last year). It was so much fun. Everyone came over to our house. We drank coffee and hot chocolate, ate cookies and just sat around talking. It was a fun holiday treat. We also all left we 44 something cookies to take home and eat later! DELISH! Talk about sugar overload!!

It was such a fun weekend but I am pooped! Its only 8 and I am thinking about getting ready for bed and reading a little before getting some shut eye. Hoping this week goes by fast...only 7 school days left before Christmas break! I can hardly wait!!
