Happy Hump Day!
Today’s What’s Up Wednesday post is a bit brief compared to my previous ones, but I didn’t want to miss this post as I did miss March’s What’s Up Wednesday link-up.
In case you’re somewhat new to the blog, one Wednesday every month I link up with a few other ladies’ awesome blogs (like Mix and Match Mama) and share some random and fun things that are going on in my life.
Each time I answer the following questions:
So, if you’re wanting a little insight into my sometimes crazy, sometimes boring, and sometimes hysterically ridiculous life, keep reading. It might bore you to tears or it might be like a train wreck you can’t help but stopping to gawk. You just never know with me. 😉 Here’s a link to my last What’s Up Wednesday post in case you missed it.
1. What We’re Eating This Week …
A bunch of Dream Dinners meals! In last week’s Friday Favorites post I told you about how I hosted a Dream Taste at Dream Dinners.
Well, I went home with a TON of meals for my family and I’ve been enjoying easy meal prep this week.
2. What I’m Reminiscing About …
Foster’s Preschool Years
This past week we’ve registered for kindergarten, attended a kindergarten sneak peek, and went on a tour of the elementary school. As a result, I’m torturing myself by reflecting on the end of his preschool days.
Here’s his first day of preschool in 2014 in Wisconsin.
How cute was he? AHHHH! And here is starting preschool here in Austin.
I want to give my postpartum, tired self a big hug in this photo.
And here he is on the day he started in the three-year-old class.
And the first day of his Pre-Kindergarten year.
How is he growing up so fast? Sigh ….
3. What I’m Loving …
A week without too much craziness. We had so much fun celebrating Parker’s birthday with family and friends but I’m happy that my house is finally (somewhat) cleaned and things are back to normal.
4. What We’ve Been Up To …
My kids have been building tons of forts and moving furniture around ALOT lately. I caught this on camera the other day and it is just a glimpse into what we’re up to.
I have no idea why they were really into laughing at each other. Silly kids.
In your head, flash forward to me screaming at them to clean up everything. LOL.
5. What I’m Dreading …
I’m already a little anxious about all of the activities we’ll be doing this summer. Swim team, new camps, etc …
6. What I’m Working On …
I’m in the process of putting together some really fun stuff for the blog this summer. Think more giveaways and more frequent posts. Woohoo! Also, if you know other moms in the Four Points Area (or greater Austin) that would find the website helpful, I’d be greatly appreciative if you forward them the blog, the Four Points Mom Facebook Page, and share the Four Points Mom Instagram account. The more, the merrier … right?
7. What I’m Excited About …
I’m sticking with my last What’s Up Wednesday’s excitement … I’m most excited right now about the trip we just planned to …
HAWAII!
We’re not going until the summer but it’s pretty much all I daydream about anymore.
8. What I’m Watching/ Reading …
I’ve been a little dissatisfied with the books I’ve read thus far this month but I hope to rebound this week. On Monday you can catch April’s Four Points Mom & Books post. Here’s last month’s Four Points Mom & Books post in case you’re wanting some ideas before then. However, my husband and I just started Westworld.
We haven’t watched enough to have a clue of what exactly we’re watching, but I’m intrigued, confused, weirded out, etc.
9. What I’m Listening To …
I stumbled upon this podcast a couple weeks ago and it’s pretty interesting. I loved the Serial podcast and it’s somewhat similar. If you like Serial, you’ll probably enjoy Felonious Florida.
11. What I’m Wearing …
I used last weekend’s fundraiser for River Place Elementary as an excuse to get some new Kendra Scott jewelry. My mom gave me a (too generous) gift card to do so last Valentine’s Day and I was thrilled to use it on a new necklace and earrings. Thanks Mom. 🙂
I love my new convertible pendant necklace. It also comes in gold and rose gold. So pretty!
And here are the earrings. These are my favorite!
12. What I’m Doing This Weekend …
I’m trying to talk my husband into going to the River Place Country Club Crawfish Boil. If you know him – help me!
We also have t-ball where I’ll get to cheer on this cutie. 🙂
13. What I’m Looking Forward To Next Month …
A ton! We have a family reunion, family graduations, and the kids will be spending some time at Children’s Learning Adventure.
14. What Else Is New …
I think I’ve covered everything.
That’s it for me today! Have a great one. 🙂
