38 Weeks!

Merry Christmas Eve!

The baby bump is all dressed up in green and pearls for the Holidays!

And he is getting bigger by the day!

Truly!

Hope he doesn't mind all the girly sparkle and pearls!

Almost time now!

Kisses,

Pre Christmas Holiday Bump Style

For me at least, lol.

This baby is on my list!

The shirts are both from a Zulilly flash sale.

And a Lilly Santa Lion bow in a vintage holiday print for extra fun! Made by etsy shop "ItsABowThing12."

This bump is getting big and I think this little boy of mine is getting ready to come out! He's not due till January 8th but... You never know!

Kisses,

Early Christmas Exchange

The Husband and I were having a bit of a rough week so we decided to exchange some of our Christmas gifts early this year.

Also, he had a surprise for me that's he's been asking if he should give it to me early for weeks he was so excited about it... Too cute! So I finally caved and as always, he nailed it!

So thoughtful!

I got three books that I've been wanting and the "Dream it! Do It!" copy by Imagineer and Disney Legend Marty Sklar is signed! (I don't know if you remember but we got the privilege of meeting him and seeing him speak recently. Link here.)

The Victoria Finlay book is an amazing weaving of the worlds gems and gem trades. And "The Art and Flair of Mary Blair" is another Disney treasure about the amazing and prolific artist Mary Blair.

I also got some Lilly Pulitzer jammy pants that I love!

A Lancome perfume I've been wanting, Trésor La Nuit. It's the latest iteration in their Trésor series which I love and am not allergic to. Win win!

And...

A very cool map necklace from The Weekend Store that he found.

It's a little locket with a map of Florence, Italy on it which happens to be the place where we met. Very romantic and sweet!

And lastly, the gift he'd been dying to give me.

The push-mas-versary gift as we've dubbed it. My push present since I'm due January 8th, my Christmas present, and my five year anniversary present (on January 23rd).

A pair of WOW diamond stud earrings in one of my all time favorite cuts.

The classic Asscher cut. Needless to say I LOVE them!

And I love that I'll be able to wear them with our new baby without fear of them getting ripped or tugged out like most jewelry is around babies.

They'll help keep me feeling sparkly and stylish no matter how much baby puke I get on me, lol.

Perfect gift!

Feeling a bit spoiled over here and enjoying it!

Kisses,

K

Love My Jacks!

I got some super fun mail today!

Jack Rogers sandals! Perfect for Florida girl living!

I'm loving these multi glitter jelly ones the most! So easy to throw on in our wet weather, for the pool, or the beach while still feeling spiffy.

Now I just have to wait for my oh so very pregnant piggies to stop swelling so I can actually wear shoes again, lol. Barefoot and pregnant is unfortunantley more than just a saying for me at the moment... Only a few more weeks to go!

Kisses,

K

Things Lately

Yummy boba bubble tea! Honey dew melon flavor is my fave!

I've been sick so I've been catching up on snuggles with Abby.

The Husband got me this adorable Land of Nod play mat I've been ogling for the baby!

Our Christmas cards came in the mail so I got busy addressing and sending them out.

Abby has decided the Christmas pillows are perfection.

And I decided she is perfection when posed with them. Especially with her Christmas gator.

What have you been up to?

Kisses,

33 Weeks!

Feeling like a rather pregnant mermaid in this colorful concoction!

I am Florida girl with a Florida baby after all so this is still entirely appropriate for our "Fall/ Winter" down here that doesn't want to dip below 85...

Viva la sunshine!

Kisses,

K

Marty Sklar Talk

I had the phenomenal opportunity to go to a Disney Vacation Club talk by the unparalleled Disney Legend and former imagineer Marty Sklar over at the Contemporary Hotel and Resort.

He has had his hand in many (most) of the things, rides, parks, and designs that Disney lovers hold dear. Including classics like the Tiki Room! His work is meaningful, joyful, and prolific. No wond they made him a Disney Legend! (A very special award.)

And he's the only person to have been to every single Disney park opening worldwide. Neat, huh?

He was there to talk about his new book "One Little Spark!"

And can I just tell you... He is AMAZING! His book is wonderful and he is such a fun and incredibly inspirational person!

Such a joy to listen to him and his stories. That's the man himself above. Sorry the photos are so bad. I wasn't in a spot for great photos.

And then, to make the talk even more spectacular it ended with a panel of two current imagineers joining him and the Disney Vacation Club host to answer questions. They are some of the coolest most creative people!

They even stuck around afterwards to answer questions one on one. Such nice guys!

And Marty? He stuck around too! That's him in a small crowd of folks chatting. Eventually I got up the nerve to mosey over myself and to shake the man's hand and thank him for his amazing work over the years and for the amazing talk!

I'm going to gush now, excuse me...

He is such a lovely human being! And... He worked with the magic man himself directly! So, therefore, by getting to shake Marty's hand I am now only one degree away from Walt Disney himself! Epic!

Definitely one of those experiences that I will always remember and treasure. So grateful to my parents for getting us tickets and to the Disney Vacation club for putting on such awesome member events!

Just epic!

If you're interested in knowing more about Marty Sklar be sure to give him a Google and check out his books (old and new). You won't be disappointed. He's a super neat guy!

Kisses,

K

Things Lately

Things have been picking up as the holidays get closer and closer around here. I'm sure they have for you too!

But Abby has discovered a new favorite peaceful activity in the midst of the chaos. I call it sun sitting but it's really sun sleeping.

At the time of day when the sun comes in through the door on this specific spot this is where she can found. Happy and relaxed.

We started our birthing class this week! Eeep! It's so exciting and a little nerve racking!

I finally got a red cup treat! (No caffeine of course though.)

And my nephew had the most ADORABLE photo shoot that this Auntie just had to brag! He is the cutest!!!

The furniture for the nursery came back from being refinished in a high shine white. It's actually the same pieces I had in my childhood room.

And I got some lovely flowers which always brightens my day!

How have things been lately for you?

Kisses,

K
