Short weeks are always good ones, right? I tried to cram a lot into the few work days this week and am so excited for Piper’s birthday weekend ahead! My in-laws arrive this evening and we have a fun few days ahead celebrating our big 2 year old! In other news, I’ve started to feel our baby moving which is exciting! I’m now 17 weeks and will post a pregnancy update at 20 weeks :) Have a great weekend!
Here are a few finds from the week…..
Cup Of Jo is starting their Motherhood Around The World Series again – I find it so fascinating to learn how differently people parent in other countries.
68 easy weeknight dinner ideas for summer (I really needed this, I’ve been in a meal planning rut)!
I’ve always been obsessed with under eye products, there are a few I like for de-puffing but no creams or gels really seem to make much of a difference on me. So, I’m especially excited to try this DIY under eye mask that Into The Gloss claims really WORKS!
7 picture books about discovery, wonder and adventure to inspire your summer reading!
The latest Oh Joy x Target collection is pretty cute!
I love Garance Doré’s podcast, Pardon My French and this recap of quotes from her first season is a fun read.
I got the cutest straw bag (pictured above) from Bosom Buddy Bags and have been wearing it non-stop.
And if you didn’t see, all the snacks I’ve been enjoying during my pregnancy + finally a new reader birth story!
And my fails!
I ordered ALL of Piper’s birthday gifts on Amazon earlier this week. I really feel guilty about this but somehow it snuck up on me. I actually saved a ton of stuff in my cart for Christmas so I can feel a bit more organized?
I’ve been staying up way too late trying to work ahead on content for The Mama Notes the past few weeks and know I need to be getting more rest while pregnant.
I’ve really failed the past two weeks with meal planning and having healthy dinners on the table. I even bought frozen chicken nuggets, mini pizzas and mac & cheese the other day!
I haven’t been adhering to my summer goals of powering down at 5pm and staying off social media when I’m around Piper, but I’m determined to make a better attempt next week!
