Stop Pinning and Start Doing!

Picture it--- 3 am, sitting in a rocking chair, feeding an infant and *pinning* on an iphone. That is how I spent most of my summer and, believe me, it was glorious! 

Well folks, it is now time to get productive! I have created a Fall Pin-Conquest that I am going to complete. Time to pick my top *pins* from the summer and put them to the test...*Stop Pinning and Start Doing!* :)

1. Buy a onesie for Kekoa that says, "I am just a studmuffin looking for my cupcake!" There are really cute options on Etsy. (I know this one is super easy- but I gotta start slow and work my way into the more detailed pins!)

2. Create a new and improved work-out playlist. Fitness Mag has a great link to the top 100 workout songs! http://www.fitnessmagazine.com/workout/music/popular-playlists/the-fitness-top-100-workout-songs/

3. Put shower rings on a hanger to hold all my scarves! Brilliant! 

4. Make a Pumpkin Pie Smoothie! 1/2 a banana, 1/3 pumpkin puree, 1/3 cup plain greek yogurt, 3/4 cup vanilla almond milk, a few shakes of pumpkin pie spice, and 4-5 ice cubes! Delish! 

5. This link lists 50 wines that are popular, party ready and most importantly CHEAP! It's time to branch out from Oliver Wines and sample at least 2 of these. http://www.foodandwine.com/articles/50-wines-you-can-always-trust

6. Hang a hook and shower caddy on the opposite side of the shower! Simple and def. doable- this will help keep all of my product from getting wet and gross from the shower head. 

7. Line the fridge shelves with press n' seal for easy cleaning later! 

8. Last but not least, learn how to french braid! I have at least a billion *pins* that involve some sort of braided hairstyle. Gotta get this French Braid mastered so I can sport some fresh styles! :) I'm thinking youtube is gonna help me out with this one! 

Hope my list has inspired you to get crackin' on your Pinterest! Please share with me some of your favs! I'll *pin* them and get to doing them by about...oh next fall! ;)
