 "I like that about New York—you don’t make a lot of plans ahead of time, but you do as your day unfolds." Amy Poehler

we're leaving for new york tomorrow so the blog will be quiet for a bit. per the usual, nothing's been packed yet and the list of things to do is still long. but we're pretty excited about getting some city life for a few days.

until we get back, i'm signing off.

ps. we love amy poehler around here!

it's a good week. and yes, it's only tuesday. the house is clean and in order. laundry is going. my girl is happy with a couple bouncy balls and i'm getting my to-do list ready for the rest of the week. we spent the morning watching the smurfs at the local theater and the afternoon has been pretty simple and quiet. 

we're all ready for friday. it's been almost two years since we were last in new york. i'm ready to put my feet on city streets again and see the beauty of tall buildings sharing spaces with green parks. living the majority of my life in the south hasn't taken away my love of the city.

and keeping my wanderlust of cities in check until we actually GET to the city | 1 2

m and i were recently having a little heart to heart about living here in south carolina and maybe it's not where we see ourselves for the long run. it was fun to sit on the porch and day dream about possible cities we'd consider moving to, if we ever made the move. oakland popped up on the list for a couple reasons so this post was a fun little surprise to read earlier this week.

here goes to the rest of a good week. if you could, where would you move to? any favorite places we must stop by while in new york?

also, i've got a thing for black and white stripes.

my girl | those legs are getting lanky, she's always pushing back strands of hair from her eyes and she's got an interesting sense of humor, for sure. her little brain is always on the go. and she always has something to say. this morning was no different.

reading | nothing but blogs at the moment. i'm in between books. i've got a stack, including silver linings playbook, but i'm really waiting on a copy of the final beautiful creatures book. the story is slightly predictable but SO good at the same time.

listening to | a lot of beachy/hawaiian music on pandora. most mornings, i turn on the jack johnson playlist and go about my day. with summer here (and still missing hawaii), it's just what i've been craving lately.

thinking about | new york, baby. we'll be leaving this week for the city and we literally can't wait. we'll be visiting M's family but also some of our old favorites places from when we lived there.

watching | pretty little liars and switched at birth. most of our favorite shows are on a summer hiatus so when i find time to sit down & zone out, those are usually my choices.

loving | summer storms (they are perfect for quiet, snuggly afternoons), getting to spend time with M this weekend between work and school stuff, a few new items i picked up for our trip and this smile.

i've got big plans to clean house today. monday mornings are usually quiet and uneventful for us so i like to use them for getting things back in order and ready for the week. and since this week is pretty full with a trip to the movies, laundry and packing for our trip - my brain will thank me later for tackling the house today. even if i don't want to!

the currently series is inspired by danielle.

23/52 | finding treasures on the beach.
24/52 | the smile that has become a favorite moment of our days. toddler tantrums still happen often, but these smiles are happening even more.
