Today was an overall productive day. Nathan woke up early, around 8 am to watch football all day. He has been doing his fantasy football league and doing pretty well. If he is number 1 after week 6 we get a $250 gift card to Best Buy which is exciting! While he was awake, Audrey and I slept in today which felt amazing. We did not get out of bed until 12:30am!! I started my day right away since most of it was already behind me. I made Pecan Swirl Coffee Cake Muffins for brunch and started laundry right away. The muffins were quick and easy, I made them from a box which only required me to mix, poor and bake, my kind of recipe! Once they were out of the oven the Seahawks game was on!Perfect timing! While the game was on and I had Audrey fed I folded laundry and put the clothes away. Then I started looking through a big stack of magazines my grandma brought me! I was looking for all kind of ideas from recipes, decor, organization and holiday fun! I found some great finds that I am excited to try! I found these really great Mugs that I want to get for Nathan and I for our coffee in the mornings! They are very much Nathans style of skulls and cross bones but they have an eerie elegance to them that I love! 
Here is the list of recipes that I will be trying over the next month or so!- Mini Potato Corn Cakes and Cheddar and Sour Cream
- Peanut Butter Blossom Cookies
- Roasted Pork with Blackberry Sauce
- Oven Chicken Salad
- Chicken Parmesan
- Mac and Cheese
- Peanut Butter Blondies
- Smoky Philly Cheesesteak Pizza
- Chili Cheese Biscuit Pies
- Pomegranate Chicken with Walnuts
- Philly Cheese Steak Stuffed Garlic Bread
Along with recipes I found some great books that I want to read once I am done with the twilight series! Now that Audrey is being more and more independent with tummy time and learning to sit up by herself I am finding a little time to indulge with a good book! Here are the books I found today!
- Last Night in twisted River by John Irving
- Enemies of the People by Kati Marton
- Louisa May Alcott by Harriet Reisen
- The Lacuna by Barbara Kingsolver
- South of Broad by Pat Conroy
- The Calligraphers Daughter by Eugenia Kim
- Strength in What Remains by Tracy Kidder
- A Gate of the Stairs by Lorrie Moore
Audrey had a great day! She slept a lot today which normally has me concerned but she is growing a lot which entails her to sleep and EAT more! This week we tried SQUASH!! She loved it especially when we pair it with plums! Once she is older and can sit up she will be getting more finger food like apple puffs and biter biscuits! Tomorrow is full of errands but still going to be fun! Our little family is gearing up for the holidays and couldnt be more excited!
