What I'm Lovin' Right Now

I have been thinking lately of all of the wonderful things in my life - our family, friends, home, etc.  Being a parent has made me appreciate so much more.  But, sometimes it's the little things in life that really help ice the cake!  So, I thought I would share a few things I am loving right now!



La Croix Coconut Water: I was introduced to this at a friend's house over the weekend and it is de-lic-ious!  I have been a big fan of La Croix for a couple of years now, but hadn't ever seen the coconut flavor before (apparently it's available at Target).  It's the beach in a can!

Pinterest: Yes, I am miles behind everyone else on this.  I'm sure you all know about this awesome website, but in case you don't..... it's an organized techie's dream come true.  Basically if you find a picture of something you like on the internet (think home decor, recipes, craft ideas, books), you "pin" it to your virtual board so that you don't forget about it!  And you can see your friends' pins too.  Follow me at http://pinterest.com/mayom/  It's hours and hours of wasted time fun.

Mac Computers:  Again, I am miles and MILES behind on this.  But I just got my very first Mac (actually my very first computer that is MINE) and I love it.  Love, love, love it!  I have started taking the one-to-one classes and am enjoying learning new things.  Can "computing" be my new mom hobby?


Couponing:  I will never be one of those crazy extreme couponers, but I do love a good deal.  And I really love to save $$$.  I went to a coupon workshop at the library a few weeks ago and learned about this website - http://www.mydallasmommy.com/.  She lives in Flower Mound, so it's nice to have someone do all the work in finding the local deals for me!

If I Could Keep You Little by Marianne Richmond: Cori gave me this book when she first came down to meet Beckett.  It's such a sweet book.  As time is flying by and Beckett is growing like a weed, I can get so sad because he is changing faster than I can keep up with.  Don't get me wrong, I do love watching these changes and cannot wait for him to grow and we can interact with him more!  This book is a great reminder to look forward to all that he will do someday.  My favorite line is "If I could keep you little, I'd keep you close to me.  But then I'd miss you growing into who you're meant to be!"


Yummy Treats:  I know I wrote about these before, but the Cinnamon Chip Scones are to die for.  They might have been my dinner last night.  And my breakfast.  And my breakfast this morning...... I am also loving iced coffee.  I have the Pioneer Woman to blame for this. I actually have a number of food obsessions that I would like to blame on her.  I swear that anytime she posts a new recipe I instantly decide that I .  must . make . it .  NOW!


And, finally, I am LOVING this picture.  It makes me so happy.
