The Friday Edit

It's quiet and the kids are all in bed (only one is actually sleeping though!) and we've got lots to look forward to this weekend. Our town is bringing back the annual May Fest for the first time since the pandemic and I'm pretty excited. Mostly for the food!

And here's a few things I've saved, pinned, read, listened to, and loved lately...


Adding these burger bowls to my "one day I'll make this".

Currently watching: Ted Lasso, again! Impatiently waiting for that third season.

I like the idea of this 72 hour assessment for mental health!

Books you'll currently find laying around my house: The Secret to Southern Charm, Black, White, and The Grey, and Lotería (for Lia).


A twitter feed that's fitting for the current times. Also, what's going on with abortion rights.

Recently bought: this dry shampoo (it smells so good!), a striped swimsuit for O, and these denim shorts that I'm hoping are the ones for summer.

My favorite pajamas! I picked myself up a new pair for Mother's Day.


Have a great weekend!

We made it to Friday! Can we make it through Friday? I have a much-dreaded dental appointment this morning and then I'm hoping for a quiet, restful weekend! 

Maybe we'll bake cookies or I can paint Lia's nails to match her soccer jersey. Maybe we'll finish the puzzle that's been sitting on the table for months. We'll probably do a lot of dishes and laundry! My girl scouts are going to help clean up a local beach! It's going to be a figure it out as we go weekend.

And here's a few things I've saved, pinned, read, listened to, and loved lately...




Cannot wait to take myself out for this movie! 

My favorite nail color right now!

This chicken was on our menu recently and we loved it.

Books you'll currently find lying around my house: Slightly South of Simple and Who Were the Beatles.

Can't stop reading all the bits on the Johnny Depp trial.

Slang knowledge. Nico (age seven!) told me that about something that was "sus" this week and I felt old. 


Enjoy the day!

The Magic Is Back At Disney

Hugs are back at Disney! We went to the parks with my family earlier this month and on our very last day Disney brought back full on character meet and greets with hugs and autographs and no masks! The magic that filled that day... SO good! 


Disney Springs is always my favorite way to start our trip. Once we check into our hotel, freshen up, and grab a bus or boat ride to Springs, it always hits me that we're there. You know that blissful feeling that comes after you've been at the pool or beach all day and you go home and shower, change into something you love, and head out to dinner? That's the feeling! We ate at The Polite Pig this time and the jalapeño cornbread was amazing. We popped into Gideon's for some cookies since I promised L I'd take her back (the timing didn't work for us last time!). And, I found some cute Disney-inspired tees for the kids here.


The rest of the trip was all about experiencing all our favorite things again. Calvacades, hugs from Mickey, food around the world in Epcot, capturing my kids in front of the castle (watching them grow up in front of the castle is so good!), and hopping on our favorite rides.


Olive rocked her second trip there and loved it. Mickey is her new favorite and we made sure to pick her up a Mickey stuffy before leaving. His ears make a good teether! 

Nico rode Soarin' for the first time after a few bribes and proclaimed it "the best ride ever"! He also did Test Track on his own (single rider line!) twice and only wants to ride that way from now on! 

Lia was just really happy to be there with extended family and get to go on rides with her aunts and cousins! She was also my snacking partner in Epcot so we could hit all the stands! 

And as always, I'm counting down the days until we can go back because these memories are some of the best and Disney is most definitely our family's happy place.

Olive Lucia, 6 & 7 Months

April 27, 2022

Our Olive-girl turned seven months a few days ago! The seven months hit me a little hard, I'll admit. It seemed like such a big number and wasn't she just my tiny, little quiet bundle of joy that I gave birth to? Tiny no more, though! She's fun and happy and love to eat!


Six months...

Loves everything she has tried so far - avocados, bananas, sweet potatoes, and zucchini.
Tried the baby swing at the park and giggled!
Solid daddy's girl. Unless Nico's around. She loves our boys!
Loves when her big sister gets her out of her crib in the mornings.
Dipped her toes in salt water for the first time.
Still sleeps through the night but is fighting naps like a champ.



Seven months...

Said mama for the first time! Hasn't said it since...
Sleeps through the night and naps pretty decently.
Went on her first airplane ride to NY and met her abuelitos, tios, and primos!
Hates baby food pouches but loves table food - especially avocados, rice, tortillas, and mangos.
Wears 6-12 months and size 3 diapers.
Pulls off all her bows. 
Eats her toes!
No teeth yet but drools all the time.
Took her second trip to Disney and fell in love with Mickey Mouse!
Starting to sit up.
Had her first pool day and loves the water.

She brings light and joy to every one! And, she's so dang fun to watch grow up!

This Week's Dinners

It's a short meal plan this week since we're going to Disney! Food just tastes better at Disney, you guys. But until then, we're taking advantage of being on break from school and soccer and making some new recipes. I've got a dentist appointment this week that I've been dreading and we still have lots of packing/prepping to do so here's hoping we can fit in a side of family game night with dinner one night before we leave!
