Sunshine, new covers and promises of cake

Categories:

Thankful

Good morning!

Can you believe it’s already February? yikes.

It’s a busy, busy day today and you know the drill — let’s get right into our moments of gratitude.

This week, I’m thankful for…

Headphones

That Jake Coco put out a new, incredible cover of Use Somebody – so haunting, so beautiful — check it (and again, you’re welcome)

The beautiful sunshine we got to enjoy this week

The new episode of Grey’s tonight — looks a little goofy, but I’m excited ;)

Fast and furious ab workouts that don’t take a ton of time

Mid-day walks in the metroparks

Lunch dates with my little man

My husband, who I cannot wait to relax with at the end of every day. He is just so fantastical, I cant even stand it!

The upcoming weekend and our plans to celebrate a new marriage (and the cake that comes with it ;) )

What are you thankful for this week? Please share!

 

 

 

The Beauty of Gratitude

Thankful

Good morning!

First of all, I’m so happy to hear how much you all are loving my workouts I’ve shared — the ab exercises are killer!

I’m actually planning on knocking them both out (arms and abs) over lunch today — who’s with me?! We can totally do this.

But before we get rockin’ let’s all take a few moments to pause and reflect back on our weeks. Time is NOT slowing down and before we know it, the week…month..YEAR is over. Don’t be so speedy that you don’t recognize all the beautiful moments, ok?

ok.

This week, I’m thankful for…

Surprise visits with friends

Vacation time

Upcoming travel plans with the Mister

That my sleep-training with Bean is making slow but sure progress [we are NOT doing the cry it out method --- instead, I've researched and compiled quite a few methods (tear free!) that are working well for us -- I'm happy to share them with any one who might be interested. If I see there is an interest, I'm happy to dedicate a post to it -- just let me know]

Zippers, sanitizer and Feud

Thankful

What a week! It has flown by, and for that, I am thankful. Thankful that the weekend is upon us, thankful that I’ll have quality time with my men, thankful that I can live in comfy clothes for a few days.

But aside from the obvious, there have been some key elements that made this week so great — you, too? Great! Let’s make sure we don’t let them pass by unnoticed.

This week, I’m thankful for:

Gift cards — oh, Skinny Peppermint Mocha, how I’ve missed thee!

My ability to resist take out almost every day this week – I actually have something in the crockpot RIGHT NOW.

ZIPPER pajamas — A word to new parents out there: do NOT, I repeat do NOT ever, under any circumstances, purchase snap pajamas. Don’t even accept them as gifts. Seriously. Snap pajamas are the bane of my existence. Zippers for the win.

Hand sanitizer

Family Feud with Friends – If you thought words with friends was bad, you’ve got a new addiction waiting for you.

Upcoming plans with friends

1000 thread count sheets

The sleep sheep – another new parent must-have!

Smith’s Rosebud lipgloss — on some days, the only beauty product I’ve got! Good thing my napping partner doesn’t seem to mind :)
