Happy St. Nick's Night!

Yesterday was busy, busy! No chance to really sit down and blog at all. I was planning on it last night, but I tried on my party dress for Matt's work's Holiday party this weekend and decided I wanted to get a jacket to go over the top. I also decided I wanted to get new shoes as well since all my other dress shoes are sandals. So after Maddy went down for bed, I hopped in the car and ran to Target. I didn't want to spend a fortune on either thing since I probably won't wear either very much. I found a cropped fitted jacket that was just perfect for the dress. Here's the jacket. I also found really cute pumps. Here's the pumps.

During Maddy's first nap I worked on wrapping gifts and putting together some stuff for Christmas. I can't say too much, but it took me forever! I kept goofing up. But it was fun and it got done. I still need to wrap some more, maybe if I finish here fast enough. I worked out during Maddy's second nap. So I was sitting around in work out clothes all morning long. That's a weird feeling!

Tonight is St. Nicks! I don't know many people who celebrate St. Nick's anymore. But our family always did. (My mom actually 'combined' St. Nicks with Easter and used to HIDE my stocking. No that was not common practice, it was just something she liked to do.) As a matter of fact, I'm using the same Christmas Stocking that I used as a child. What's St. Nick's you ask? Here's the Wikipedia definition. I stuffed Maddy's stocking about two weeks ago. So she's getting cookies, a slinky, a mini see-and-say, slippers and...something else, but I can't remember what--oh, a ball! So tomorrow morning after Maddy is up, dressed, and finished eating she will find her Christmas Stocking laying in the middle of the living room floor. She'll need some help unpacking it since I jammed it all in there pretty good! I'll take some pictures since this is her first St. Nicks (that we're celebrating, anyway)!

Well, I have a story about a ring that came in the mail yesterday, but I will wait until my next blog to post it. It deserves it's own entry!

I think I'm going to package up a box or two! Have a good day!
