Haaaaappy weekend, friends!
What do we have on the docket? After a crazy week riding solo with my little ladies (Doug was on a work trip), I’m ready for a little R&R. My parent are actually taking the girls for a sleepover tonight, so Doug and I are going out on a fun date night. Gotta prioritize that every so often, you know?! Then on Sunday, we’re planning on hibernating and doing things around the house – I’m 22 weeks and really starting to itch to get the baby’s nursery done! (Among countless other things around the house – eek!)
Hope you have a good one, and in the meantime, here’s The Charming Roundup: v5 for this week’s charming roundup of links + reads!
