market totes

little man was home sick last week - ALL week. yes, a fever that would not go away. momma was scrambling trying to get him taken care of and finish up some projects at work. craaaazy.

however, i must share when i was home with him on day, i got a great deal of Christmas shopping done! oh, yes i did!

my goal for this holiday season was twofold 1.) to never do to myself what i did to myself last year thus goal #2.) to have my Christmas shopping done by halloween. well, that didn't happen....BUT, much of it is now done and my calendar says it's not quite mid-november.

here's a favorite find - i ordered several as christmas gifts!

i love these! a friend has one and i have coveted it for more than a year now. she uses it ALL the time! i found these (aren't they fancy?) at one of my favorite little southern on-line shops whitney caroline designs.

oh! and sorry, i must brag a tiny bit more...i even ordered my Christmas cards (via snapfish) and they arrived today!

exhale.
