weekend in pictures

last week was a total blur

 and when i think of everything i have going on right now

 it starts to feel like this month has already come and gone

but, december is just getting started!

my mother-in-law, sister-in-law, and niece fly in tomorrow and

i am so excited to dress the cousins up in matching jammies and watch them play

but this weekend i wanted to pause and make it a priority to have some fun with my little family

so saturday was all about my baby girl and her new best friend, Santa

 

(Samma, Santa gives out toys... not beads!)

 

i've been talking to her about Santa while we've been out and about and this weekend, it clicked! everywhere we went, when we'd see a Santa, she'd point and say "San-tuh! doggy!" i guess she thinks a reindeer is just a dog with antlers? maybe we'll work on Rudolph and Frosty next?

Saturday morning we took her to breakfast with Santa and she told me she was going to kiss him...

 

 

what.a.tease

if she wasn't going to smooch Santa she could have at least thrown a fit or had an epic meltdown because anything is better than a boring Santa picture, right?

 hopefully she can be bribed into smiling next year

 

 

after breakfast with Santa we went straight to the farm to cut down our Christmas tree

i spent most of my time chasing SG through the trees, past the petting zoo, and into the hay

while my husband set out to find the perfect tree

 

 

 

when we got back home SG took a (much needed) nap while

CJ and I set up the tree, untangled the lights, and then settled in for the SEC championship game

thankfully, this little good luck charm woke up in time to cheer for our 2nd favorite SEC team

 ROLL TIDE!

 

 

CJ has the shingles, again, so after the game I took SG with me to Target so he could get a break

and we had the best time! she spent 30 minutes making Santa kiss Rudolph

and i could seriously listen to her say "muah"  and "san-tuh" all day long

she is at such a fun age right now and i seriously don't know anyone funnier than this girl

 

 

speaking of Target...

on saturday morning my sister braved the lines to shop the Neiman Marcus for Target collections

and she got SG the most adorable Jason Wu dress

 

 

i love it

but why does my 22 month old look like a tween?!?!

and where can i find her some cute shoes to go with this dress?

i'm having a hard time finding cute winter shoes that don't look like dr martens
