lately

Source for photo: Unknown.

I don't know about anyone else but I have always disliked Sundays. Sundays are the day before going back to the school/work week. Sundays are dreary and usually full of last minute to dos before the work week or last minute homework plans. I usually spend the whole day moping around that Monday is just around the corner (& don't even get me started on Mondays). Well this year I choose to change Sundays. I choose to enjoy my Sundays and spend them relaxing and spending time with family & having adventures. I choose to make my Sundays happy, as they should be. Mondays... that's a whole different battle.


Making: Plans to make things. I promise a ton of diy blog post soon!

Cooking: Tomato soup & grilled cheese. It's a constant struggle to work protein into my diet.

Drinking: Water & milk. What I really want to drink? A big ol' cup of strong black coffee and a yummy margarita.

Reading: Jodi Picoult's Leaving Time. So far I have to say it's my favorite of hers and that's saying something because I own every single one of her books. Have you read anything from her? Cause you probably should.

Wanting: My first paycheck, which won't happen for another 2 weeks. I want to buy lots & lots of fabric so I can start sewing cute baby things.

Looking: For inner peace. My anxiety has been drowning me lately.

Playing: Sims 4 when I get the chance, which hasn't been often lately.

Wasting: Time sitting around and binge watching Netflix on this dreary Sunday.

Sewing: Hems! Shorty problems.

Wishing: For endless amounts of money to buy all the cute baby items I have been finding.

Enjoying: My pregnancy. I love feeling every kick and dance party that our little one does.

Waiting: For Aaron to get off work. He switched up jobs and now has to work every other weekend. It's a drag.

Liking: The idea of making my own quilt for our little one instead of dropping too much money on one that someone else made.

Loving: The idea of making plans to travel back home in a couple of months!

Hoping: For a happy, healthy baby boy.

Marveling: Over the idea that our baby will be here before we know it.

Needing: A baby moon with my hubby. Both our schedules changing this past week has thrown me for a loop. I hate our time together being dwindled.

Smelling: A clean house and my green tea candle.

Wearing: Yoga pants and a hoodie. It's cold in Texas today (and I'm running out of pants that fit).

Following: My heart.

Noticing: The lovely swelling of my feet.

Knowing: That I kicked butt today on my to do list makes me feel amazing! Go me!

Thinking: Of all my family and friends that I am missing back home.

Feeling: Blessed. Always blessed for this life that I am so gracious to live.

Opening: My monthly package of mail from my parents. Usually full of junk and bills but I signed up for some parenting magazines and I'm excited to read them.

Giggling: My husband will forever always be able to make me laugh when I am in the worst mood. He's pretty amazing like that.

Enjoy your work week lovelies.

XOXO,
