Five on Friday: 8.28.15

Today's five are a mix of complete randomness. Let's dive in :)

1. Today is my Mama's birthday! I am so thankful for her and everything she does for me.

2. P90
I started P90 the same day I started back to work so I am finishing up week 4 tomorrow. I am really enjoying it, I know there are people out there who do not like Tony Horton's style of motivation but I love it and can basically repeat all his goofy sayings throughout the dvds.
After I finish up the "A" section of P90 I am planning on doing a review so check back in a few weeks for that!

3. I am so excited that neither Zach nor I are traveling this weekend! It is so nice to spending a much needed weekend with my little family at our little house! I already have a mile long to do list to catch up from all the traveling I have been doing!

This will definitely be me tonight!

4. In honor of Wednesday being National Dog Day, here is a picture of my one and only fur baby who we love dearly.

5. My favorite picture of B from this week.

B looks straight up gangster with his little hat turned sideways on family walk around the neighborhood.

I couldn't choose just one he looked so darn cute on our walk with his little hat from his Mimi.

Five on Friday: Second Edition

Linking up with Christina, April, Natasha, and Darci for another five on Friday post.

1. I have my glucose test this morning and am super anxious about it! I have been a little worried about this test from my beginning because Gestional Diabetes is definitely something I do not want! 

                                              

not looking forward to drinking this :/

2. We are heading to Nashville for my first baby shower right after Z gets off work this afternoon! I love spending time with my family and cherish each and every moment with them even more now knowing that in less than 3 months the dynamics will drastically change. I cannot wait to see all my friends and family this Sunday and celebrate sweet baby Barrett Upton!

3. Last week I was in charge of bringing snacks to our Connect Group so I decided to make these cute little mini pizzas. Let me tell you these were a HIT. Who doesn't love a bite size pizza! They are super super easy and take NO time to make! Below is the recipe so you can try it out :)

4. I am dying to purchase one of these sweet swaddle blankets for baby B BUT I just can't pull the trigger on the $74 price tag when I know that could buy enough diapers for about a month. Aren't they sooo sweet though!

5. I am finishing up the Downton Abbey series and have decided that I am not going to start a new TV series instead I am going to start a book series. Does anyone have any suggestions on a good book series? I am not super picky when it comes to the type of books I read so any suggestions are welcome!

Mini Pizza Bites:

Ingredients needed:

Flour tortillas 

Pizza Sauce

Mozzarella cheese

Shredded Parmesan cheese 

Mini pepperonis

Recipe:

Preheat oven to 425 degrees and lightly spray your muffin with nonstick spray.

Cut flour tortilla using either a round cookie cutter or if you are like me you can use the bottom of a vegetable can (Note- each tortilla will make about 4 round circles).

Place the cut outs in the bottom of the muffin pan.

Scoop one spoonful of pizza sauce in the bottom of the flour tortilla.

Add mozzarella and Parmesan cheese.

Top with 4-5 mini pepperonis (or any other pizza topping you would like).

Bake in oven for 10-12 minutes or until the tortilla is golden brown.

Enjoy :)

Five on Friday: First Edition

Today I am linking up with Christina, Darci, Natasha, and April to share five things that have been on my mind this week!

1. Has anyone tried these Milky Way simply caramel bites? Let me give you a warning if you haven't, be prepared to be addicted, they are heavenly! I made some cheesecake caramel brownies the other day and the recipe called for these and suggested getting 2 bags so you could snack on the other bag while making the brownies, so of course I had to follow the recipe and pick up 2 bags. Great idea because they are so yummy! Bad idea because I can't/won't stop the snacking!

2. Some of my favorite tv shows are back on the air, which makes me super excited! I lovvvvee tv shows and it makes me so happy seeing my DVR full of my favorites including: Suits, How To Get Away With Murder, Grey's Anatomy, Scandal, Fixer Upper, Property Brothers, Nashville, Pretty Little Liars, Dance Moms. My list is never ending, and yes I know it is kinda sad.

3. I have 2 confessions: One, I decided to watch The Bachelor this season. It has been years since I watched a season of The Bachelor and for some reason I cannot get enough of this season. These girls are CRAY-ZZZY and it makes me laugh and how ridiculous some of them can be over the silliest of things. Two, I am super late on this train but I am totally addicted to Downton Abbey! Ahhh the moment Mary, Anna, and Cora carried "Four" (from Divergent) or Kemal Pamuk across the giant house I was hooked! 

This buzzfeed article accurately describes my relationship with Downton Abbey.

4. Consignment Sales: I am going to my very first one this afternoon and am so excited! I am hoping to pick up some cute (and cheap) baby clothes and a nursery glider for my sweet Baby B! After listening to some of the women in one of my connect groups I am pretty sure I will be addicted! I will definitely give yall an update on my first experience!

5. My super cute niece and nephew are coming in town this evening! I am so excited for their arrival. They can be a hand full but I always have the best time with the two of them and laugh the whole time I am with them! 

Check back tomorrow for my 25 week bumpdate!
