I have to be honest, this week has been heavy. I heard some heart breaking news about a friend on Monday and the news hit very close to home. My thoughts and prayers have been with this friend the entire week and remembering back to those early days of my own very raw grief has been hard.
Despite that, I thought it would be fun to post about some of my favorites from this week. End the week on a lighter note, ya know?
Towards the end of last week, I got this craving for a big, fruity salad. I took matters into my own hands and headed straight to Kroger to pick up what I needed to make it {grilled chicken, strawberries, Craisens, nuts, and feta cheese}. I normally shop the sales, clip my coupons, and make sure to stay within budget, but I lost all my inhibitions and totally went for it. This dressing was so worth the splurge and really made the salad total perfection! GET SOME!
PIECE(S) OF JEWELRY FOR SPRING/SUMMER
SPRING OUTFIT IDEA
I haven’t really thought a whole lot about clothes these days, mostly because I’m a little bummed that I haven’t done much with any of this baby weight that I need to loose. But, when I saw THIS super cute outfit on a fun fashion blog that I follow, I knew it was “pin-worthy.” I’m not sure how these hips will do in some white jeans, but I’m loving the look and hope to try it out for myself soon!
MOMENT WITH THE BIG GIRL
Savannah is growing up so much that is makes me want to freeze time. So, when she wakes up from “rest time” and wants to snuggle with me, I try to take total advantage. She loves ballet so much that she wanted to sleep in her outfit.
MOMENT WITH THE MIDDLE GUY
This middle guy has been a total hoot lately. In the past couple of months, I feel like his little personality has just exploded. I’ve seen the strong-willed side for quite some time, but I’m seeing more and more of his silly and funny side. Even folks from church have commented that he’s much more talkative. The kids were watching Frozen the other day and Brady was getting a total kick out of the Mickey cartoon that plays at the very end of the DVD. I wish I could have gotten this at a better angle. Good ole Mickey slapstick cartoons…gotta love ’em!
MOMENT WITH THE LITTLEST GUY
Since I have fewer opportunities for one-on-one time with Davis, I try to seize them when I can. This picture was during “rest time” for the older ones. I had just fed him and he was chilling on the floor when I decided to lay on my side next to him. I propped him up on his side and we just flirted with each other. It was so priceless.
