Reading: Nothing much, these days. (But, this is one of my favorite books, Mom or not, hands down. I resonated soooo much with her. I might reread it.)
Wanting: this jacket! this jacket! 40% off! And already sold out in my size! Dammit! (Did you know they have a section called long? Is this music to my long-torsoed ears?! YES.) That didn’t make sense. Music to my ears, and I have a long-torso. Clarification is everything.
Watching: Elf. We’ve watched it twice already! I think I’m going to start Cosmos too.
Listening: Diana Krall Christmas music and Gregory Alan Isakov
Eating: iron-rich foods! Or, I should be anyway! (Trying to, really.)
Smelling: Coffee brewing in the morning
Wishing: I could snap my fingers and have things hung on walls just right… (but we (Steve) did hang a hook in Parker’s room! See above! Progress!)
Enjoying: these final days before the baby comes. They’ve been really quite nice and I’ve felt fairly relaxed lately.
Loving: these hats. Stocking stuffer for basically any boy/man in my life. The price?! I’ll take ten.
Hoping: my body keeps feeling good; I hope I don’t jinx it, but the past few days, my pelvis has felt way better. Baby is bigger yet I feel better? What’s that?
Needing: warm pajamas for Parker. The boy will not keep blankets on him ever. All the one-piece fleecy ones seem to be flame resistant though, which I am not a fan of. Recommendations?
Feeling: baby jabs all the time. I freak the kids out by putting their hands on my belly during serious elbow/knee jabs. Second time around, it’s still the craziest thing that there’s an actual human in there.
Wearing: these sweats, which we all already knew… (and again… and I’m wearing them again right now…) — here’s the link for my Instagram friends asking!
Bookmarking: this! I could do this! Gimme some greens and a hot glue gun! Watch me go!

I totally craved ice during both my pregnancies and really cold lemonade.
Libby Thomassen says
Ditto on those hats! My husband just got one and I might have to steal it.
bridget says
at that price, you don't have to steal it! buy yourself one! 🙂
Krista Mae says
Love the hook in Parker's room!

Obsessed with ice while pregnant. Especially "good" ice – those little pellets. My kiddos won't leave covers on either. We have the Halo Big Kids sleep sacks. I don't know if they are flame retardant. They do look really goofy and cute in them.
Rachel says
Merino Kids pajamas. The price is hard to swallow but if they wear them every night from November-April (as one would through a NE winter) it may be worth it. It's hard to quantify the "are they warm enough" debate every single night.
bridget says
oh wow, those are so darn cute. and i hear you on the quantifying. (especially when you consider–is he waking so early because he's cold?! could warmth get us to a 7 am wake up instead of a 5:45?!)
carimarie says
Oh yes Ice!!! I agree there was a certain Ice I needed it was like the crack of all Ice! It was the round crunchy little ice balls a little smaller then marbles LOL
Jillian says
What about Hanna Andersson? There's an outlet at Wrentham, if you're ever down that way.
bridget says
Oh I LOVE them. I think they only make cotton though? I could be wrong!
Jennifer says
Feeling her move and watching my stomach move around was my favorite part of being pregnant. Coolest thing ever.
Ashley - FishFeather says
Ahh! Gregory Alan Isakov. All of his CDs are now on my Christmas wish list. How is it that I just found him?
Lara says
What's wrong with flame resistant? I never even thought about that. Chemicals? Oh dear, now you're making me wonder about my daughter's jammies. 🙂
bridget says
i hadn't ever thought about it either and parker had pleeeenty of fleece flame resistant jams. more recently came across an article that said they're some crappy chemicals. blahhhhh. what's next.
