Friday things. Recommendations needed!

1. I got a wreath for the yellow door. An improvement? I didn't look very hard because browsing stores in a new city is tough with a baby. It's from Hobby Lobby. I can always put it somewhere else, I guess. I thought about just a cutesy Easter one from Wal-Mart (because I couldn't find one anywhere else) but I'm terrible at remembering to switch out decorations this time of year so I never decorate between January and September.



2. I need a face moisturizer recommendation. Amazon's selection is completely and totally overwhelming. 
I ended up getting this one at Target.


3. Jeans. I've tossed around the idea of Madewell jeans for years. I bought two pairs of AE jeans in September and while they're comfy and stretchy, they're too big now and I'm constantly hiking them up. I need a go-to pair and think the investment might be worth it because I really only need one pair. Also, I've spent a total of $55 on clothes so far in 2019, so I think I can justify it.




4. I'm trying to decide what I want to do for Wells' nursery (nursery #2, that is) and I found some cute things in Hobby Lobby but I don't want to commit until I get his name sign ordered from an Etsy shop and see how it looks. However...I was looking at the boys' themes in Hobby Lobby and I feel like I can't decide for him. I don't want to hang up baseball or football or camping things because I don't know if he'll like those things. Animals are a safe bet, which is what I have now, but I wanted to add to it. I don't want to choose a theme when he'll want to change it in a few years when he actually has a preference. These are strange thoughts because I never really considered it before. Mostly I'm just doing nature tones and navy blue because I like those colors (Lord help us if he likes the colors red or orange, as I do not).

5. Any thoughts on The Bachelor and Colton? I can't remember if I mentioned it, but I like Colton. I just like him. He seems like a good guy who's there for the right reasons and I have so much respect for how he handled himself this week.

Also, Chris Harrison chasing down Colton was the way I looked and sounded when I thought Scout got out of the yard a few weeks ago (he was locked in the basement...Scout, not Colton).

It really might be the most dramatic finale ever. Like, for real this time.
