Happy Monday! What a whirlwind of a weekend and how has February been going so fast! This is usually such a slow time of year in my opinion but this year it has been flying by - likely due to be busy moving, counting baby growing weeks, and vacation planning. I sometimes think that one aspect of living well means finding those beautiful moments that are in the midst of the business of day-to-day. While this was a quick weekend, it was a good one filled with moments I am grateful for...
Family time - My brother and sister-in-law were able to squeeze in a visit that was totally out of their way. I love getting to spend time with them and wish that it could be more frequent.
Baby stuff - It is fun seeing my husband preparing for that shift to being a dad. We went together to buy a few baby clothes this weekend. He picked out a monkey outfit that is totally different from what I have been getting.
Couple time - We fit in a very long Sunday afternoon walk to enjoy the sunshine and burn off the pie (lemon meringue from Hoosier Mama- yum) we had with my family. It was one of those totally relaxed walks where the conversation goes on random tangents and the doggie tails were wagging with contentment.
Nesting - We made some of progress on getting our place looking like our home; seeing our photos up on the wall makes me happy. There is still a long ways to go but small bits of progress are satisfying as is working together on little house tasks.
Goals and things I am looking forward to this week -
Blogging - Get organized and make blogging part of my routine again! I have so much to share on here but have got to organize my thoughts so that I can be efficient with the bits of time I have available.
Working out - Running before work! I am so excited that we now have a treadmill at home... it is going to be awesome. And it is going to help free up some time after work which is needed.
Party - This weekend we are doing a progressive dinner with some friends - can.not.wait. But need to figure out what to make for my course and hopefully get a little bit more crossed off the nesting list.
Photography - I need to get out and have some photography time this week. I am not sure what the theme will be but I really need some quality time with my camera as I have been feeling pretty uninspired lately - time to break out of it.
Hope you all had a beautiful weekend and a fantastic week coming up!
