Friday Thoughts

There’s sooo much going on that I feel like I’ve been sharing much more than I actually have. You know when you have a million things in your brain all day? I swear that if I forget to write something down, it’s gone forever. Today’s post is a sort of mish mash to catch up on life lately!

What I’m buying: I took the plunge and ordered a bunch of swimsuits off of Amazon to see what all the fuss was about, but I was pretty disappointed. The only one that worked was this one-piece leopard print swimsuit. I went down a dark hole on Amazon one day and reordered this toy for Sprout that I had completely forgotten about. He used to have one and loved it but then it got broken or lost and I didn’t remember to replace it until now.

What I’m reading: I started to read The French Girl, but I got halfway through and decided I didn’t want to continue it. I just downloaded Ghosted onto my Kindle, and I’m also on a waiting list for a couple of books at the library. Any great reads to check out? I need something that’s hard to put down!

What I’m working on: There are so many projects that I’m juggling right now that I kind of feel like a circus performer sometimes. Having a toddler doesn’t help that, but I’m learning to love the cluttered mess our living room becomes at the end of the day because it means that E had fun.

What I’m looking forward to: Nicer weather (it’s started to get warmer here in Boston!), summer days, and a couple of vacations coming up!

Happy weekend!
