So What Wednesday...

Linking up with Shannon at Life After I "Dew" for:
So What Wednesday
 
This week I am saying "So What" if...

-I'm still not in that holiday spirit and haven't bought more than a couple of gifts.

-In two months, I have gone from never having a cup of coffee in my life to a morning cup and sometimes even a lunch time cup. 

-I have to have Natural Bliss coffee creamer in my coffee or I can't drink it (vanilla and caramel are delish and don't have all the junk in them like other creamers do!)

-I already opened my Christmas gift.  The hubs went out on Black Friday and brought me back an awesome tablet with attachable keyboard.  He said he didn't want to wait a month to give it to me.  I didn't even know I wanted one until I messed around with it...it's pretty awesome!

-My son is getting a shelf for his room for Christmas.  I know, not very exciting but he doesn't need anymore toys, he needs a place to put the ones he has.  Plus, he's only a year old so I'm going to get away with it while I still can :)

-I have decided to let my girls start paying for little trinkets, etc. they are always asking for when we go to the store.  They earn stickers for doing good deeds, being sweet to each other, listening, etc. and they can turn 10 stickers in for $1.  They have loved being able to go to the Dollar Tree and pick out something and pay for it themselves. It has also been easier than telling them, "No" all the time.  Now when they ask for something, I say, "Do you have your money to pay for it?"

-Even though I sell Shaklee, I decided to try Shakeology.  Had my first shake yesterday (chocolate with pb & banana) and it was pretty darn good.


-I said I would never homeschool my children but with the disappointment in the school system here and the cost of private school, that option has made it onto my list for next year.

So What Wednesday...

So What Wednesday

This week I am saying "So What" if... 
 
~As I am typing this (Tues. am), we still don't know what our Thanksgiving plans are.

~I still haven't started my Christmas shopping...heck, I haven't even made my shopping lists yet.

~I have decided I am one of those people who can only handle one holiday at a time.  I can't get in the Christmas decorating, getting a tree, listening to Christmas music kind of spirit until Thanksgiving is over.

~My husband and I were always those crazies who got up to go shopping at 2am on Black Friday but since we have had kids, I haven't gone...I kinda miss it. 

~I think I'll do most of my shopping online again this year.  With three kids and always having at least one of them with me, it's a little hard to get to the stores for Santa shopping.

~I am praying that my kindergartner doesn't come home from school saying that someone told her there was no Santa.  I want my kids to believe in the magic of Christmas as long as possible...once it's gone, it's never quite the same. 

~Before we had kids, I only drank girlie, fruity drinks-hated beer.  After our second child, I started liking the taste of beer. Now that we have had three kids, I love beer and prefer it over "girlie drinks" and wine. Good thing we are done having kids or I might end up drinking the "hard stuff." haha

Happy Thanksgiving from the Smart family!!!

So What Wednesday...

 Time for Wednesday's Link up:
So What Wednesday

Today I'm saying "So what if..."
  • I still think my husband is super hot even though we have been together for almost 12 years :) Something about watching him with our kids makes him more attractive than ever!
  • My daughter didn't feel well Monday night so I let her stay home Tuesday even though she said she felt better and could go to school.  It was her first sick day of the year, so I didn't feel bad about it for one minute!

  • I am so freaking out about having a Shaklee table at my daughter's school this Friday for a holiday extravanga. It's my first event...ahhh!

  • I have not even started making my lists for Christmas shopping much less started the actual gift buying.

  • My hubs and I haven't decided what we are doing for Thanksgiving yet. If it weren't for the kids, I think we would just stay home and eat some K&W Cafeteria Thanksgiving dinner meals. This is the first time since we've had kids that we don't live near either of our families.  Last year doesn't count because we moved on Thanksgiving.

  •  I am not a fan of winter! Fall I like but winter can get lost! Cold temps, wearing coats, being cold, having to get coats on and off the kids (so it takes twice as long to run errands), being stuck in the house because it's too cold to go out and play, cold and flu season, did I mention that I don't like the cold!?

  • I am also not a fan of the time change! Why do we still do this? I mean really all it means is it gets dark at like 4:30 now...depressing! And our electricity bill goes up because we have to turn lights on earlier. I swear I remember hearing (a few years ago) that we weren't going to do this anymore after 2013...anyone know what the deal is???

So What Wednesday...

So What Wednesday

This week I'm saying "So What" if...


  • I don't shave my legs when my husband is out of town.  You know we do it for them...I mean really who shaves because it's just so much fun!? 
  •  I was really bummed over the weekend when I realized I needed to stay home with our little guy because he was sick and would miss going with my husband and daughters back home for a visit.  Then I had a light bulb moment...
  •  I got so much stuff done...work stuff, cleaning those things that I never seem to have time to get to (the inside of the fridge, tile grout...you know those kind of things) , got some miles in on the treadmill, prepared for my first upcoming booth event at my daughter's school-eek!  Then I had another light bulb moment...
  • My pre-wife, pre-mommy self would laugh so hard thinking that this would be her future idea of a successful weekend! 
  •  I ate an UNREAL candy bar for dinner the night my kids and hubs leftMy girls would die if they knew that let's keep that one a secret...or I'll never hear the end of it :)
  •  I am getting the kids pictures taken this weekend for the first time since Archer has been alive. How terrible is it that I have never had Archer's picture professionally taken and he is 12 months old!!??  Oh well better late than never right?
