What I’m Loving Today

 

Happy Wednesday everyone! I have had a fabulous couple of days so far! The last two days I have been concentrating on getting things done around home and work! After a crazy week last week, some of those things got pushed to the side. Thankfully, Sam has been  great at napping this week which has allowed me to catch up!

But, that’s not the only thing I am loving today. It’s been a while since I took time to appreciate all the little things in my world right now. Here is just a few of them…

I’m Loving…

Sally and Perkins from the blog Love, Life and Football. I have really enjoyed following along in their debt reducing journey! Yesterday they talked about the excuses people make when it comes to paying off their debt. It got me thinking about how relaxed Ryan and I have been about our own budget this summer. When things have gotten busy during this summer we would take the easy way out by spending a lot of money on restaurants and summer recreation. Therefore, I spent some time yesterday to rework our budget. After talking with Ryan, we are going to try our hardest to reduce spending for the month of August! Less eating out, less money recreation! There are so many fun things we can do this summer that doesn’t cost any money!

That we had a fun yet free evening last night! Bestie Jilly has talked about how she is going to spend some of her summer vacation time next week at “the camp” and how she has fond memories of listening to stories, enjoying the cottage activities and playing games. I was telling her about one of our favourite games, Domino Mexican Trains. So, last night she came over for a fun game of Trains with us! It was so nice to sit, visit and play this fun game (Sam was in bed, woo hoo!)! Fun and free Tuesday night!

Fellow Canadian blogger All You Need Is Love announced her pregnancy! I am looking forward to following along in her journey!

I’m Loving…

My maternity leggings. I’m almost 4 months post-baby and I am still rocking my maternity leggings. It’s not because my regular ones don’t fit but because the maternity ones are FAR more comfortable! I think ALL leggings should be high-control waist! It’s not like anyone can tell they are maternity! Smile 

I’m Loving…

My Ring Sling that I purchased from Lily and Mama on Etsy! I have a Moby wrap and Ergo (baby carrier hoarder right here *raises hand*) but it is like an Olympic event trying to get those bad boys on by myself! There is something about the ease of a Ring Sling that makes using it even more sweet! Of course it’s comfortable but it’s the fact that I can take it on and off in 10 second that makes it so wonderful!

My two boys! Sam is loving to interact and play now! Ryan and Sam have their own little “talking” game! They can do this for a full hour back and forth! It’s fun to see how their father/son relationship is growing! I can tell this stage is getting fun for Ryan because they can interact now!

What are you loving today?
