Weekly Wins: Novembering

It's FRI-YAY!!!!

{via}

Unfortunately our day is starting with Ella's 6 month appointment which means shots...including the flu shot I believe. The positive side of this is, she's gonna be inoculated which is a great thing, but the tears are never easy. I'm excited to see how much our little lady has grown though (and to sleep in a bit this morning)!

Time to celebrate the wins from the week!

~Ella had a successful first Halloween and trick-or-treating experience. We stopped by our neighbor friends' houses before Ella's bedtime (which also helped us push back her bedtime a bit in anticipation of Falling back this weekend for DST), and Ella grabbed candy (that later went into mommy's tummy) and got lots of attention for her first Halloween!

 

~this shot from daycare earlier in the day on Halloween and Ella's "I'm over it" face

(the hat is from my friend's son's--on the left--first Halloween 3 years ago) Her face makes me laugh every time I see the picture

~The morning skies this week have been out of this world. I didn't take any pictures because I was driving (and that's a no-no), and also because they just don't do the skies justice. I find that Fall skies in the morning and at sunset are some of the most gorgeous.

~Driving along the Potomac towards Mount Vernon, listening to the Hamilton soundtrack in the mornings. It's fun listening to history while driving along where some of it took place.

~leftover Halloween candy. Enough said :)

~2 teacher workdays on Monday and Tuesday, and an early release today means: 1) time to get work done  2) no kids at work 3) leaving early and getting to spend a little more time with Ella

~hubs coming home with a huge pack of Honeycrisp apples (my favorite) and dark chocolate covered pretzels from Costco. #getinmytummy

~these two shirts made their way into my online Target shopping cart and will be arriving on my doorstep next week, along with a $10 gift card just for buying them!

~post-nursing/burping zzzz's before bedtime--the snuggle is real

I'm really not sure how this one is going to make it another hour to bedtime after this weekend with DST ending

~I've gotten a ton of super cute pictures of Ella from daycare this week that have seriously made my day. I won't keep inundating you with Ella pics though (even though I could look at them all day long) :)

~Seeing my mom this weekend!

Hope your Friday is quick and your weekend is extra restful!!
