making: all the peanut butter cookies. This recipe is perfection, they practically melt in your mouth.

cooking: every slow cooker recipe I can get my hands on. Send any of your favorites my way!

drinking: coffee. Too much coffee. This is the third week in a row that it has been raining here in the ATL and it's the only thing that helps me drag myself out of bed on an overcast and rainy morning.

wanting: all the Christmas decorations. Really, I have no self control when it comes to this stuff at all.

looking: for the perfect black boots. I have ankle boots but I would like a knee high pair. Any suggestions?

wasting: zip lock bags. It's kind of obscene how many we go through in our family.

sewing: things that are too long. It seems like I find something new to hem every week!

wishing: for a very, very, very white Christmas. 

enjoying: these rainy days. Although waking up is tough I am definitely loving our cozy days at home that include lots of fuzzy blankets, warm socks, piles of books and steaming cups of coffee.

waiting: for Thanksgiving to be here! I get to have my parents here for almost an entire week! Yippee!!

liking: having two toddlers. I desperately miss many things about my kids being babies but having two walkers who can actually play with each other is incredible!

wondering: where we'll be next year...

loving: Aziz Ansari's new show "Master of None." We've been holed up in bed every night devouring this show! 

hoping: for a good resolution to several things that have been on our minds as of late.

marveling: at the little lady that Birdie is growing into. It's unreal how quickly they become mini adults!

needing: still on the hunt for that perfect winter coat...

smelling: the myriad of fall scented candles I've filled our home with. Yum!!

wearing: this incredibly soft sweatshirt pretty much every day.

listening: to this wonderful album non-stop.

noticing: that yes, stores keep getting Christmas stuff in earlier and earlier, but also noticing that I don't actually mind that much!

knowing: not much! Still so much up in the air! Hoping for some certainty in the new year.

thinking: about the book I just finished - Fates and Furies. One of the best books I've read in a while.

feeling: content with a hint of anxiety. Ha!

bookmarking: ideas for Birdie's third birthday party that is just around the corner!

opening: junk mail. Nothing but junk mail. We hit November and all of a sudden everyone and their uncle has a catalogue! Ugh!!

giggling: over Teddy's idea of "dancing." Basically he rocks from side to side like a roly-poly.
