Jeremy and I couldn't be more excited! He's been ready for babies since the day we got married but was always willing to wait till I was ready as well.. Which just shows what an amazing man he is! Always putting others first... 

We are currently in the middle of our 7th week.. I hope to keep track of this pregnancy here on the blog, being such a forgetful person.. this will be a nice way to keep track of everything!

Sneak Peak..

Fall has arrived at the Peasley Casa! This time of year is truly a favorite of mine. Candles, spiced lattes, yummy foods, decorating, and the welcoming of all the holiday celebrations. I still have a few final touches but for now I'll leave you with just a peak :)

I love the way it turned out.. and the BEST part.. I already had everything I need laying around my house to put this baby together! Love when that happens, even though its rare.

What are you doing to welcome Fall?

just a little fruity..

I'm always looking for ways to spice up my eating habits and eat healthy. Now don't let that fool you, I still eat out plenty and have lots of areas to improve as far as that goes. But I recently found an idea on pinterest and had to give it a try. I loved it so much, and it was so simple I had to share. How I had never thought of something this simple and yummy is beyond me..

Flavored Water with Fresh Fruit.. or if you want to be fancy I hear people call it Spa Water or something like that.

Get a pitcher along with a bunch of yummy fruit. I used Melon, Peaches, Apples, Strawberries and white nectarines. I didn't expect the apples to add much flavor but thought after sitting in the flavors it would be yummy to eat.. and it was! 

I mashed the fruit a bit to let the juices blend, then filled it with ice and water. It didn't taste like much when I first made it, so I popped it in the fridge for an hour or two... And that did the trick!

Enjoy! Summer is almost over.. and this drink screams SUMMER! 

Great Finds

It always makes me happy when I find something inexpensive and it quickly becomes a favorite. Most of the time, you get what you pay for, but not this time.. I stumbled apon NYC Liquid Lipshine and instantly fell in love! I normally don't stray from MAC lipglass.. for whatever reason I did and so glad I did. I picked up the Brighton Peach Beach and will be adding many more to my collection. 

Don't you love it when you stumble upon a great find! What have been your great finds lately? 

SkinnyTaste

Yesterday I was trying to find a recipe that I could make with all the garden fresh tomatoes I was given recently. My brother and his girl are great with keeping plants alive. I on the other hand was not given that gift. Pasta sounded yummy and while searching for recipes I stumbled upon www.SkinnyTaste.com. Previously my goto website was allrecipes.com since I am able to see what others said about the recipes before trying them. I am so happy to have found such a great resource! Not only is the food yummy but most of the recipes seem to be pretty easy, which is right up my ally.

I made this recipe and I'm sure I will be making it again.

I have found lately that after working 40 hours being in the kitchen just doesn't excite me, so we always seem to default to eating out. Simply for convenience sake. I'm hoping to start using this website to help me get back on track!

I'll try and post some of my favorites from the site as I try them.
