Linking up with April, Christina, and Natasha today!
Four things I am loving/thinking about/wanting on this (cold) Friday in the mid-Atlantic:
1. Heated Blanket: Did anyone else have a heated blanket on their bed as a kid? It had a little remote thing attached to it so you could turn it on and off. We had them and I loved it but somewhere along the way we stopped using them and I never got another one as an adult. When I was putting new sheets on my bed last night, I was thinking about how cold my sheets are when I get in bed at night and I remembered heated blanket! The problem is is that my husband is basically a heater and would probably hate the idea of putting one on our bed. I found this one on Amazon so I might try convincing the husband to give it a try.
2. Dry winter skin: My skin is so unbelievably dry this winter and it is driving me batty. I don't know if being pregnant has anything to do with it but it seems worse this winter than in previous winters. We have a humidifier going in our bedroom and I've been alternating between my trusted Egyptian Magic cream and Origins Drink Up Intensive Overnight Mask for my face and while I'm seeing some improvement it still looks pretty bad. My hands are even worse and nothing seems to be working on them!
3. Christmas Home Tours: We live in 1500 square feet and pretty much every inch of our space downstairs has been taken over by a toddler and his "stuff" so sadly we don't have a Christmas tree up (we actually haven't had one for 3 years) and have minimal Christmas decor out this year. Thus, I am loving all the Christmas home tours people have been posting the last few weeks. I am living vicariously through all of you with gorgeously decorated homes! Hopefully 2018 will see us moving into a bigger house that allows for a Christmas tree and decorations but until then I'll be casually stalking Christmas home tours!

4. Christmas Movies: I love, love, love cheesy made-for-tv Christmas movies! They are the absolute best. My husband has been out of town a lot recently so I've gotten to watch a few of my favorites: The 12 Dates of Christmas, Holidaze, and Christmas Cupid. I'm thinking about watching A Christmas Prince on Netflix, has anyone seen it? What are your favorites? Together, G and I will watch Home Alone and Four Christmases.
Happy Friday, friends! Hard to believe Christmas Eve is NEXT weekend!
