As you may have heard in last week’s podcast episode (or saw on Instagram), we are expecting another baby this summer! Oscar is going to be the best big brother ever and we are just thrilled. I’ve finally got past all the nausea of the first trimester too and I’m feeling more myself, but with a growing belly. 🙂 Life feels really good, and really full. And I’m very excited for 2024 and everything it’s sure to bring. Anyway, here are 10 things I’ve been loving lately.
1. Made these vanilla hot chocolate molten cookies during the holiday break and they were SOOOO good.
2. Bought these clogs somewhat on impulse and I LOVE them so much. They are so cozy.
3. I now own four pairs of these overalls in different colors and it’s basically all I wear right now.
4. I made this chocolate cake twice in the last 30 days. I had two birthday excuses to do so and I’m glad because it’s the perfect cake for chocolate lovers.
5. I realize this is very specific to my time of life right now, but I just bought this maternity swimsuit for an upcoming trip and it’s so cute and I think going to work well this summer when I’m at my biggest before our due date.
6-7. In the last month, I read The Last Graduate and People We Meet on Vacation and loved both books so much. Quick reads, great escapes from winter and sickness as we’ve all been dealing with that at our house.
8. Again, maternity specific but these pajama pants are the BEST. I have two pairs and love them.
9. I bought this set of pens for work and they are the best ballpoint pens I’ve ever had. I like the look of them, but I mainly mean they function well. I hold my pen slightly weird compared to “normal,” so I appreciate good ink flow. 🙂
10. I couldn’t wear perfume or burn candles (or be around any scents, ha) for a few months there, but now that I’m feeling better I’m using my favorite perfume scent again. Even on days I don’t leave the house, I just love the smell.
P.S. Here are some recent posts, in case you missed them!
