Happy Friday! I cannot believe it’s already the first Friday in October! I had a good week and have some favorites to share with you so let’s get to it!
Favorite 1: JEFF!! We celebrated Jeff’s birthday this week. It was a quiet evening but we had a yummy dinner, lots of family time, chocolate peanut butter bars, and watched the Falcons together. Happy happy birthday!! We love you!
Favorite 2: SUNSHINE!! Oh my goodness, I was so so happy on Thursday to see the sunshine! After 12 straight days of rain, that sun was so needed! I made a few extra trips outside at school just to soak it up.
Favorite 3: HALF-BIRTHDAYS! We measure the kids on our door frame on their birthdays and half-birthdays. Jack’s half-birthday was Monday or Tuesday, so I marked him on the wall. He’s grown a bit since his birthday and it still feels weird to me to look up at him.
Favorite 4: HAIRCUTS! I usually get my hair cut about once a year. It’s only been nine months since my last chop, but it was time. I love getting my hair blown straight when it’s cut. I really like this cut when my hair is curly, too.
Favorite 5: ONLINE ORDERING! I have been ordering and returning more than usual this week and I am so grateful for speedy online shipping and returns. I’ve made in store returns, Amazon at Kohl’s returns, USPS returns, and UPS returns. It feels like a part time job at this point, but I am so grateful that I can get these sent to my house easily, figure out what size we need, and return quickly.
Favorite 6: THURSDAY GROCERY PICKUP! I am back in the habit of doing my meal planning during the week and scheduling our grocery pickup for Thursdays. It is so much easier when we go into the weekend with meals planned and the pantry stocked.
Hello Monday
Currently / Hodgepodge
We have a pretty low key weekend, but I have a big to do list started. I am hoping to have productive early mornings and evenings so that I can spend a good bit of time outside if the weather is lovely. The boys have their first confirmation class this weekend, too. Have a great weekend full of sunshine and books!
