Happy Smonday! Yes, Smonday. You know...that extra day we all deserve that falls between Sunday and Monday. Smonday! It takes Sunday Funday to a whole 'nother level...but then again Smonday only exists in a make believe world that apparently only Casey and myself live in so it looks like we're stuck with...well...Monday. Wishful thinking...huh?
Anywho-I'm linking up with Sami today for Weekend Shenanigans! Quite possibly one of my favorite link ups to date. Yep-I said it.
two. My handsome date enjoying a glass of vino before dinner. (& simultaneously celebrating the capture of the Boston bomber #2!) :) #realmenwearpink
three. Oakley graduated to her big girl bowls this weekend. Though they are GINORMOUS, her other bowls were too tiny and we were having to fill them up 15 times throughout the day. She'll grow into 'em...
four. Saturday afternoon I spent some time snapping pics of my adorable pregnant sister-in-law! She's almost 28 weeks along (with TRIPLETS, if you're new to these parts!) and is still on hospital bedrest but she's doing just fine and her spirits are great!!
five. "Said" sister-in-law who doesn't even look 12 weeks pregnant from the back! She's amazing y'all...foreals.
six. Oakley girl sitting pretty.
seven. Sunday evening stroll with my little fam. Absolute favorite part of my day!
eight. New garden rock from my sweet aunts!
nine. New blogging digs! Slowly but surely I'm nesting into our little office. :) It's amazing how you can become inspired all over again by just a change of scenery!
In other news, I finally caught Oakley being sweet long enough to take a picture with me so we snapped these right before church.
This little one makes my heart go pitter patter... :)
All in all, a fairly low-key weekend...completely necessary after last weekend's shenans. (Dear Low-Key Weekend, I like you. Suppose you'll stay a little longer next time?)
PS-if you missed Friday's post, today is my very first day of Raw Week 2013! That's right...this entire week I'm attempting a 100% raw diet. If you're thinking to yourself "why??!!"...don't worry...I am too! ;) I'll be posting lots of food pics on the ol' Instagram so be sure to check in with me! There are LOTS of other girls doing it too so don't forget to include #RAWWEEK2013 in your posts so I can check out all the food pics!!
The current food situation in the Howard household...
Call me crazy but come hell or high water...I WILL accomplish this!
Link up, K? All the cool kids are doing it!

ReplyDeleteLooks like a fantastic weekend! I love your little blogging corner! And I had my first raw breakfast smoothie this morning! Bring it ON #RawWeek2013!
ReplyDeleteWhere is your blogging desk from?! I love how it fits in a corner but doesn't look like a "computer desk".

DeleteYou have to find someone in your area that carries them. Or you can just order it online and pay for shipping. iTs not to bad to put together but does take two people. Pref someone not in a sling.

im so excited to hear about Raw Week. A kid in a college class of mine did a project on eating Raw and it sounded SO FASCINATING!! i am dying to hear how it turns out for you. I'd be worried I'd turn into a ravenous beast by day 2 and start to gnaw on Kurts arm in the middle of the night
xoxox
I am in love with your desk! And your puppy is just too adorable. Also, I'm looking forward to hearing all about how this "raw week" experience goes for you! Good luck!
ReplyDeleteOakley is getting big! Still lovin' on that wrinkly forehead! ps. Are your smoothies pre-blended in the fridge? In the green jars? If so, how do they hold up?

ReplyDeleteI can't believe that is your sis-in-law from the back. She looks amazing! From the front too but so small from the back. I hope she makes it several more weeks so that those babies will be big and strong! :)
ReplyDeleteJust a couple of things...
ReplyDelete1. Oakley's bowls made me giggle because it looks like she could roll up inside one of them but I know in a few months her paw won't even fit...have you found a new bed for her?
2. That baby bump...check it out! how cute is she?!
3. I absolutely adore your new desk
4. I adore you! :)
