The Friday Post. [vol. 3]

Happy Friday!! Doing my weekly sigh of relief and popping in here to say hi, give a little update and to share some fun links from the week! Luke went back to school on Wednesday after his bout of pneumonia and is pretty much back to his jolly little self. Still has a yucky cough, but his lungs are clear and no fever and praise hands for that. I’ve started to brainstorm ideas for the boys’ Valentines for school and there are sooo many fun ones out there, I just need to pick something and start on it. We did dinosaurs last year, and I’m just not sure if I can ever top that one. Our bathroom should be finishing up in the middle of next week, and I cannot wait to get our house back in order. Also, my parents arrive next week for their annual February stay, and I am so freaking excited I cannot contain myself. Trying to decide where to put Luke while they take the guest bedroom. Do we go for it and just stick him in with the big boys? Do we put up the pack and play in the laundry room and shut him away? Do we put him in our room? TBD. My dad also always likes to have a house project while they’re visiting to keep him busy and we haven’t decided on that either. Phew. This post kind of became my to do list, didn’t it? Or vent? Anyway – I feel better after having it all down.

What are you up to this weekend? It’s supposed to be “cold” here in Florida (think 30’s to 40’s), so whatever we do, we may have to bundle up and have a little bit of hot chocolate on the side. Whatever you do this weekend, I hope you enjoy it! Now, how about some fun links from around the web?

It won’t be January forever. (Made me weepy.)

Cold with a side of raining iguanas. And my favorite iguana story. Oh Florida.

What to cook this weekend.

And how to make those family dinners stress free.

The happiest day in kiddie lit!

This store has the best ad emails.

Low key dreaming about a Valentine’s Day date with my husband. This dress with these shoes at our favorite date spot and maybe even an extra glass of wine after? (sidenote – also very much into this jumpsuit.)

Sweetest midwinter DIY to cure those midwinter blues.

Have a sweet weekend, friends!
