Whats Up Wednesday

It is the final Whats Up Wednesday for the year! 

Yikes, how did that happen?!? If you are new to the blog, one a month a whole lot of lovely ladies link up to share what has been happening in their lives this past month. From what we are eating to what we are wearing its all covered. This month / last few weeks have been cray-zag (as December usually is) so lets jump in!  

What we're eating this week 

I'am all about holiday food and any excuse to eat some Christmas ham 😜 So we will be eating a mixture of new and old Christmas recipes. I shared a few of my go-to seasonal recipes on Monday. But if you missed it you can catch it here.

What I'm reminiscing about 

An amazing few weeks filled with food, family and friends. No better way to welcome the Christmas season! 

What I'm loving 

Our new fruity pool toys, which are practical and pretty. We bought a whole stack of different pool toys at the beginning of the season because we live in the pool! But these are my favourites.  You can find them here.

What we have been up to 

If I'am not at work or doing chores you can find me here at the moment. What can I say, I'm a beach bum at heart! And with weather like that can you blame me? 

What I'm dreading 

I have both a dentist and skin appointment this week. I feel like I have been to these specialists once a month this year and I'm officially over it! But I'm thankful for such great healthcare and all my teeth 😛

What I'm working on 

Christmas baking, crafts, shopping (which I'm yet to finish) etcetera. The usual final chaos that comes this time of year! 

What I'm excited about 

Having my whole family back in one city for Christmas. My baby sister arrives today from Minnesota and I can not wait! 

What I'm watching / reading 

This Is Us - aka This is amazing! 

And I have just start The Clasp by Sloane Crosby, which comes highly recommended. So I shall keep you all posted! 

What I'm listening to 

Christmas carols dah! This album just happens to be one of my favourites this year. If you haven't already checked it out, jump on Spotify right now! 

What I'm wearing 

My usual easy but cute chore, child and chaos proof outfits. 

What I'm doing this weekend 

Celebrating Christmas with my family and friends! There will be food, laughter and presents. I hope your weekends are blessed and merry! 

What I'm looking forward to next month 

We will be ringing in 2017 at the beach with friends. This means a mini break filled with rest, relaxation and fun. I can't wait to be back here! 

What else is new 

Other than the Christmas chaos, not a whole lot! 

Have a wonderful day friends! See you tomorrow!
