One of my simplest pleasures is:
nursing my 2 year old while sitting in my favorite chair! My coffee is good too!
On my bedside table:

New recipe I tried last week:
a semi homemade cookie (I don't like to bake)
To make Cookies
Mix 1 box of chocolate cake mix, 2 eggs and 1 cup apple sauce (or oil), 1/2cup toffee bits and 2 tablespoons of a coffee drink powder. Spoon cookies on a cookie sheet and bake 12 min. @ 350!
In the craft basket:
some sweaters I bought last week to cut and sew into pants for the baby. Look
here to see how!I think that they might be in there for a while as I am to afraid to get started! I don't want to mess up....I don't think sweater material seam rips very well!
I'm looking forward to:
Christmas.....my in laws are coming out to visit!
MOPS in 2 weeks! I love the breakfast casseroles!
Homemaking tip for the week:
Take time to sit in the easy chair and watch the kiddos play....maybe even join them!
The housework can wait~
My favorite blog post this week: was over @ Yet He Abidath Faithful~
Danielle is a momma of 5 boys and 1 new (girl) bundle of JOY! Her family is just beautiful! She has posted the most wonderful pictures the past few days of her newest little darling~so go take a peak but make sure you're quit the baby might be sleepin' lol!
My favorite photo from last week: was the kiddos(3 of my 6) in the corn maze! We had a great time playing in the saw dust pile,looking @ the farm animals and buying apples! We got a few small pumpkins too for home canning!

Lessons I learned this week:
To just stock up on bath towels because no matter how much I lecture about not wanting to find bath water all over the floor......it still keeps happening! (I have 6 kiddos) Plus God knows how much I enjoy and love the smell and feel of warm towels right out of the dryer! (no shortage here @ our house!)
Oh~and the up side of down is that my bathroom floors are always really clean! LOL
On my prayers list:
My family and many of my blog friends in need of prayers
(many are due to deliver another blessing soon!)
Scripture reading, devotional or key verses:
In everything give thanks- 1 Thessalonians 5:18
Have a great day~
Blessings,
