OOTD and anniversary celebration

Hope you all are enjoying the weekend!  This is a recent OOTD featuring a maternity dress I got from Shabby Apple.  I won a Shabby Apple gift card many months ago and couldn't decide what to spend it on.  Once I found out I was pregnant, I decided that this would be a great, versatile dress to have.  So far, so good!  It is comfy, light weight (which is great because I'm always hot), and has plenty of room for my belly.  I love the sleeve length because it covers my tattoo, so I don't have to wear a cardigan over it to the office.  The neck tie ads a little something, so it's not just a boring black dress.  

Dress:  Shabby Apple maternity line
Tights:  Assests maternity tights
Belt:  J.  Crew
Shoes:  Anthropologie Olivia Cutout Oxfords




Ben and I celebrated our 2nd wedding anniversary earlier this month.  We kept things low key and ended up having a wonderful day together.  We spent the morning at the pumpkin patch (my favorite!), then we took a little day trip to Mount St. Helens to explore a bit and have a picnic.  Here are a few pictures from our day.

Pumpkin

I am obsessed with pumpkin right now.  Obsessed.  I can't stop. 

This is the best pumpkin beer I've had.

Homemade pumpkin granola, perfect with vanilla greek yogurt.  Recipe here.

Pumpkin +  goat cheese = heaven

Yes.

Homemade pumpkin waffles.  These were great!  I made a big batch and froze some of them to eat during the week for breakfast.  Spread a bit of almond butter on it and fold it over like a little waffle sandwich = perfect breakfast.  Recipe here.
