with spring quickly inching up on us, and the weather giving us every reason to keep looking forward to it, we took full advantage. since daycare was closed monday, maya and i went had a girls morning with friends, enjoying a picturesque brunch and of course a trip to the playground.

another winter week, a week filled with cookies, valentines, hugs and kisses from maya, puzzling together outfits that make me happy, and snuggling into the couch at night. my best friend’s birthday was this week, reminding me not only how much has changed in, we won’t say how many years, but also how many things haven’t changed.

this week felt very in routine, full of reading (finished the school for good mothers, and oh my), watching friends (because we were both beat), and coming up with some fun plans for spring and summer. we decompressed this weekend with my favorite pizza place, rom coms, more friends, and of course football.

and somehow it is already february, which feels surreal. in so many ways i feel like it was christmas yesterday, meanwhile i’m counting down the days to warmer weather and baby boy’s arrival.

these january weeks seem to go by in a total blink of an eye, especially the days it feels like we’re still hibernating.
