Happy Wednesday Ladies!
Today I am linking up with Shay , Mel , and Sheaffer for "What's Up Wednesday", be sure you guys link up too!
WHAT WE'RE EATING:
I have been AWFUL the past few weeks with my meal planning! it is on my "to do" list this weekend, to actually sit and plan for our meals next week, I mean life is so much easier when I have dinner planned out! I am excited to try a new chicken recipe my friend Elaine shared last week...I am making it this week and very much looking forward to it! You can find the recipe here .
WHAT I'M REMINISCING ABOUT:
Always around this time of year, I find myself thinking about my kids being little. With the school year about to end, I always get a bit weepy about how big my kiddos are getting and how fast the time is flying by!
WHAT I'M LOVING:
We have lived here for exactly 6 months now, and up until last week we have never seen dolphins out swimming in the canal in the backyard. I am absolutely LOVING sitting out back watching them swim and play literally right in my backyard! It's amazing!
I am also LOVING our new outdoor furniture! We spend LOTS of time on our patio and this little Iset makes us happy!
WHAT WE'VE BEEN UP TO:
Mark has been working like crazy lately, but thank goodness busy season is coming to end for him! When he has a weekend off, we have been doing projects around the house..nothing super fun or exciting!
WHAT I'M DREADING:
I have got to do some SERIOUS closet cleaning and organizing, and I am 100% DREADING it!
WHAT I'M WORKING ON:
I have been thinking for quite some time now to change my blog over to wordpress, so I have finally gathered all the information I need, now I just need to get my butt in gear and get it going. Thank you Olivia for the contact information!
WHAT I'M EXCITED ABOUT:
I am super duper excited that school is over in less than a month! I love having the kids home!
WHAT I'M WATCHING/READING:
I haven't been watching much TV these days...we are hoping to finally finish Making A Murderer this weekend.
I have not read nearly as many books as I had hoped, but I did finish one, and am halfway through another.
I am a huge Emily Maynard fan (fellow Charlotte girl) and I read this book cover to cover in about two hours. It was great!
I am about halfway through with The Guest Room and so far I am LOVING it!
WHAT I'M LISTENING TO:
I love having country music blaring on my BOSE during the day!
WHAT I'M WEARING:
I haven't taken any "what I'm wearing" pics in FOREVER!!! Basically you can find me in either my Zella capris, Jcrew factory shorts, JCrew factory t-shirt, or a cute graphic tee these days!
WHAT I'M DOING THIS WEEKEND:
Mark has off this weekend...YAY! We are thinking about having some friends over Saturday for a cookout, other than that, just hanging out with the kiddos!
WHAT I'M LOOKING FORWARD TO NEXT MONTH:
I am looking forward to school being out for the summer!!!
WHAT ELSE IS NEW:
We are all still super excited that Harrison is here! He seems very happy to be "home"! other than that, nothing else is new over here!
FAVORITE MOTHER'S DAY GIFT:
I would much rather give a gift than receive a gift, and on Mother's Day, I love giving my mom something special. My mom and I are so much alike, so she is super easy to shop for, because if it is something I would like, she is sure to love it also. I love giving her things she typically wouldn't treat herself to...a really good pair of pajamas, a massage and mani/pedi, a gift basket with her favorite candles and bath products. And as I am typing this I am realizing Mother's Day is right around the corner and I need to get her gift ordered and shipped ASAP!
Thanks so much for stopping by today! See you back here tomorrow!
I am not a blogger so what is the difference about wordpress vs. what you are on now? Just curious! Girl, I love to meal plan and I do SO MUCH BETTER at eating when i do meal plan. No matter that it is just us two old people at home now LOL! Tony likes to be able to look at my little board in the kitchen and know what is for supper that night. We try (try used loosely) to eat very little beef, so if I am having beef for dinner then he knows he needs to not have it for lunch! Weird but just us! Hope your meal planning goes well. You know I tried that Blue Apron but cancelled already. They had almost nothing Tony would eat! So that was a total waste of time and money for us! Oh well, we stick to basics like fish, chicken and well more fish. If I could give up the sweets, I might be able to lose weight! HA! Have a great rest of your week!
ReplyDeleteI like the layout of Wordpress better. I'm not sure of all the pros and cons of it. I need to do more research;). Ugh meal planning. Mark is a picky eater so I could never do one of those services!!! And weight loss...I just suck at it. I like food and Pepsi too much. Lol
DeleteYay for Harrison being home! How's everyone adjusting?? The dolphins in your backyard is so cool!
ReplyDeleteEveryone is adjusting well and enjoying having Harrison home! I miss your blog girl
DeleteI had to re-read that first bit 3 times...dolphins in a canal in your backyard!!! Holy cool!!!!!!
ReplyDeleteHi Deena! It's really so cool....dolphins in my backyard. Thanks for stopping by today!!!
DeleteThat patio furniture turned out perfect! I have been a huge fail in the kitchen lately too. Finally stocked up on groceries but am still lacking motivation!
ReplyDeleteLove that y'all have dolphins! No fair!
