In the spirit of Friday (hooray!) and the freakin' weekend (double fist pump!)
here is a quick list of some awesome things happening at the Hauck nest.
-Sunny days with time in the evening for swinging!
-Green grass to play in and flowers blooming in the front yard.
-Doing my part to make sure the Heart of Africa region at the Zoo is up
and ready to go (this weekend) by feeding the giraffes and riding the camels.
(Sometimes it's easy for me to get caught up in the drama of work
but then I think to myself, you fed a GIRAFFE and oh yeah,
sometimes cheetah cubs come and play in your office and it sort of puts things
into perspective).
-Good hair days even when you have to take your showers in the evening.
-Dinner on the deck with Popsicles for dessert.
-Not having to haul the high chair onto the deck because your toddler
is big enough to sit in his own chair
-My Salwater Sandals (a present for my birthday) and it finally being
warm enough to wear them.
-A fresh batch of pictures from Costco ready to be scrapbooked!
-Max loving the sugar snap peas we served at dinner last night
(he said "it's crunchy mommy!).
-Papa Rob getting some sand for the sand/water table.
Max loved pouring, scraping, and dumping the sand.
Then, we put him to work with the broom and dust pan cleaning it up!
It's never too early for chores, right?
-Delicious wine leftover from the weekend and brought by your in-laws.
(It was a Bogle Chardonnay - same wine served at our wedding!)
-A new stack of books from the library (will be sure to do a book report soon!)
-Instagram - 4 x 4 squares of pure happiness!
-Doughnut wrapping paper from Paper Source - the perfect
paper for Max's birthday presents.
-Finding the cutest wedding shower invitations on Etsy for a good friend!
I love planning all the little details that go along with showers.
-New seasonals in ZooKids who are working hard to get everything ready for summer!
-Papa Rob bringing home the cutest stamps from the post office.
-Kicking off a new little project for the month of May, where I write one person
a little note every night. I love snail mail!!
-Meeting this camel named Goober. Learning that Max is old enough for camel rides
at the Zoo this summer. (Sidenote: Did you know that all the Chewbacca noises from Star Wars
are actually camel noises??!)
-Friends who want to learn more about essential oils!
-It's practically maxi dress season. #gimmeallthedresses
-Kid Scents oils now being sold individually from Young Living. I bought
the Sniffle Ease and Sleepygize. They are pre-diluted and great for kiddos!
Previously they were only available as part of the kids scents kit, and it would go in and out of
stock all the time, but not anymore!
-Playing Hide and Seek with Max in the yard - which involves him telling me where
to hide and then counting to six and looking for me.
-Speaking of the yard - things are starting to green up around here. Almost all my perennials are peeking out of the dirt. My clematis, bleeding heart, and lily of the valley should all bloom in May!
-Max's Mickey Mouse shirt - love it, love him.
-New music downloads for jamming in the car!
-The current weather forecast says sunshine for days....
As you can read - there is not much to complain about around here.
Just making a list like this helps me keep my attitude in check!
Happy May everyone!
xoxo
