I was originally going to write a Thanksgiving post, but we'll be attending Thanksgiving at my in-laws so the "ideal menu" post i had in mind would simply taunt me...i think its something do to with being in our own house this year that stirs my desire to host a Thanksgiving feast.
However, i do still get to make a dessert and have purchased 2 small pie pumpkins to make an actual not-from-a-can pumpkin pie. If anyone has a good recipe for such a pie, let me know!
In the meantime, i will dive into the Holiday spirit with the every popular Christmas Wishlist:
For Silas:
1. These amazing baby socks:
He has a habit of yanking off his socks as soon as i put them on. Now that its winter, i need a solution other than "oh well" and i think these would do the trick.
2. This gorgeous embroidered alphabet:
i've had my eye on this since Silas was a newborn. i love educational toys that are still beautiful and fun, and this shop fits the bill. It's incredible. There's beautiful felted numbers, an adorable ladybug mobile, and even a Hebrew alphabet set! The home-school mom in me swoons.
3. A play kitchen, like this one:
Looove this b/c its small and very quirky. It looks like a kids imaginary kitchen come to life.
No matter what, he'll eventually have a play kitchen...i have big plans for our short entertainment center once we get the tv mounted on the wall.
Also, if you've never explored the world of felted/wooden food, i suggest you look in to it. so much fun.
For Mona and Amadeus:
our mini-daschund and *great dane
*in a moment of pure insanity i decided to give him to Ryan as our anniversary present.
i will, however, never be insane enough to be one of those people with a "I heart my Great Dane" sticker on their rear windshield. Just wanted to clear that up.
This cute bed for Mona, minus the cat of course.
2. A dog bed for Amadeus, with some sort of music note motif.
3. The biggest bone i can find.
Next time: me and my lovas lists.
