Thoughts from a Thursday

Pregnancy Ramblings

-Another week has gone by and we’re still date-nighting and nesting. This past week, we had kombucha at Remedy and then a nice, long dinner at favorite HG Supply. -I’ve never felt more organized and efficient at work. I’m keeping my inbox to the bare minimum and I reply with lightning speed every time something comes up. I worry about going into labor with unfinished business, and I don’t want to have to think about a thing during maternity leave.…

Counting Down

Pregnancy Ramblings

We’re down to the final weeks over here, and I feel like I’m ready? Things are in order at work (for now), and the nest is ready. Thanks to Matt for doing 10 million things around the house to get us organized. We had one last meeting with our doula yesterday, and reviewed some of the relaxation techniques for labor. I’m excited! I’d like to make it to my cut and color appointments next weekend, and then we have ZERO…

Pregnancy Ramblings

A couple of women at school have exclaimed “THE BABY HAS DROPPED” when I walked into the workroom.  I guess so? I’m not sure! I finally bit the bullet and bought a pair of Tom’s flats I’ve been eyeing for fall (Taupe Suede). Pregnancy has def kept me from spending money on clothes, but I miss shopping, especially this time of year. Is it realistic to think I’ll read some novels this fall?  I created a reading list on Amazon…

Back To The Grind, For Now

Pregnancy

Hi! Whew, last week was a whirlwind. Going back to work is always crazy, but this year I’m moving more slowly and tire more easily. I finally feel like I’m back in a routine, but last week felt exhausting. One of the PE teachers found me a giant yoga ball, and I’ve been using that at my desk and alternating between the ball and the chair. My back just aches sitting at the computer, and I’m most comfortable when I’m…

Life Pregnancy Ramblings

-I think I’m nesting? We discovered some mold around our AC vents and had to move into the guest room while it’s being remediated. As a result, Matt and I cleaned out our closet and old files, moved his office out of the nursery, and did a ton of things around the house that I may have put off for years! -The timing of summer break has been perfect, as I have a surge of energy and have been running…

In-Law Long Weekend

Uncategorized

Hello!  I’m sitting at the airport on my way to Matt’s college reunion, waiting on a two hour delay:( I’m officially finished with the 15-16 school year though! Woohoo! Last weekend, Matt’s parents came to visit and we had a fabulous time!  We cooked for them on Friday, and then I took Matt’s mom to the gym on Saturday.  I haven’t felt that great doing yoga lately, so I did some lifting while Candace went to a vinyasa class. And…

Lots of excitement over here, as I have two weeks of school left until summer break! Woohoo!! It’s that point in the year where fun events are happening right and left – the 8th grade lunch, PA appreciation lunch, graduation, bridge into middle school, and lots of performances. I have never been more ready for a break though – I suddenly feel like I have one million things to do at home. Outside of work, I’ve been enjoying a few…

A Week Off

Life Travel

Hi Friends, Happy spring and happy belated birthday to my mom! I’m enjoying some time off from work for spring break, and it’s been nice hanging out at home. Here’s what I’ve been up to: Burgers with friends on Friday night – they brought their adorable kids, and it was nice to catch up since they are busy, busy. We need to get a grill though because we made a mess in the kitchen with grease flying off the griddle…

Springing Forward

Ramblings

Spring forward brought 88 degrees! I love all the green I’m starting to see. It must mean St. Patty’s Day is near. I had a low-key weekend that included a lot of odds and ends around the house. I love being able to open all the windows and have the fresh air sweep through the living room. Spring is probably the one time of year that I feel inspired to clean. And somehow I convinced Matt to do the toilets.…
