Currently, I am …

thinking about how fast this year is going. Dylan is already in his third full week of kindergarten. I just entered the 3rd trimester with this pregnancy. Only 3 more months (plus a tiny bit if she’s stubborn like her brother?) before we meet Baby Girl. And, no, we definitely do not have a name. Given we didn’t pick Dylan’s until he was 8 days late (he arrived 2 days later), I wouldn’t expect us to have her name picked until at least mid-October.

preparing for our family changes. Nesting has started to kick in a bit in the form of house projects in general, but also on the nursery. I found a changing table on Craigslist last week for $15. Structurally in great condition, but definitely had seen better times which was fine. I knew I wanted to paint whatever I bought. Lucky for me, her big brother has been happy to help. Soon we’ll have a beautiful new-to-us yellow changing table to match the dresser in her room.

reading The Husband’s Secret by Liane Moriarty. I had read her book, What Alice Forgot, earlier in the year and enjoyed it so thought I would try this one. So far, I don’t want to put it down. And excited it’s my 20th “real” book (i.e., not a picture book!) this year. My goal is to read 30 books and it looks like I’ll accomplish that.

grateful that Dylan still enjoys books and snuggles at bedtime. He’s growing up so fast, but still little too. I know these days are numbered and I’ll soon have to split time between two kids so I’m enjoying them to the fullest.

enjoying regular after dinner game night with Trent & Dylan. It’s a fun, relaxing way to spend time just the 3 of us after busy days of work and school. One of our current favs was a birthday present he received – Cars 2 Monopoly.

looking forward to an outdoor movie at our neighborhood pool on Friday night. It was an idea another neighbor started a few weeks ago that looks like will continue monthly into the fall and is a great way to kick off the weekend.
