There's No Place Like Home

Can I tell you just how excited I am to get home?! 

It is so hard being away for so long. After a certain point in time, you just start to miss your own bed and the ease of a daily routine.

Don't get me wrong, I have had a great time these past couple of weeks! I love spending time with my family and Dan is a great travel buddy. I have had quite the adventure and pictures will be posted soon! 

It will be so lovely just being home and getting things ready for this little girl! 

Less than two months 'till my due date! I'm starting to get a little stressed, actually. But mostly excited!

In the Good Ol' Summertime

It's pictures like these that make me so excited that the weather is warming up! We've been here in DC for the past couple of days and it has been so warm - I've been wearing skirts every day! More pictures from this trip later, but for now enjoy these little glimpses of warmer days to come!

I love H&M Kids!

H&M opened in Utah a couple of months ago, but I never made it up to Salt Lake to see the new store. I'd been to tons of H&Ms in Massachusetts before and never really saw much that caught my interest, but I'd apparently never seen their kids' section. 

While visiting my parents in Boston last week, my mom and I went to an H&M and WOW! They have the cutest (and least expensive!) clothes for little kids! Here are some of my favorites for the spring. The little leather shoes make my heart melt!

Thank Goodness for Target

I don't understand why my cravings can't be for things in season. 

Watermelon has been at the very top of my list of pregnancy cravings for the last couple of months. Watermelon in January or February is pretty much impossible to find. 

But thank goodness for Target and their deli section because they always have pre-sliced watermelon just waiting for me to pick it up. Its no August watermelon, but it hits the spot!

Ten Things that Make Me Really Happy Right Now.

1. Little baby girl is kicking!! (right now as I type, in fact!)
2. It was the most beautiful, warm day today. Karylee and I took Sandra to the park and it was perfect.
3. A great game of crazy rummy even though I super lost with over 600 points.
4. Dan and I can text and talk on the phone throughout the day even though he’s 2,102 miles away from me.
5. I am actually feeling creative and working on some art projects
6. My book for book club is waiting on hold for me at the library and I’ll have something to read on my trip!
7. I’m leaving on my trip in almost exactly 48 hours.
8. These boards on Pinterest. Is it just me or is every pin amazing?
9. Things are getting crossed off my to-do list!
10. I had broccoli with dinner tonight. Fulfilling a crazy craving is quite rewarding.

This list started out as only five things, but I have so much to be happy about it turned into ten! Life is quite wonderful right now. I’m so lucky.
