1. Do you know what rocks? The last week of school. Oh my goodness - there are so many fun things going on, so many projects that the kids are working on, and I actually feel relaxed. Today is Field Day, and I always love it. However, I think I’m going to have to have someone come and relieve me a few times because I don’t know how I’ll do on my feet all afternoon long.
2. TWO MORE WAKEUPS!!! (Have I annoyed you with that enough yet?)
3. I’m happy to say that we are taking some time this weekend and heading off to Michigan with some family. Even though the forecast doesn’t look too great for this weekend (kind of chilly), I’m glad to just get away. And Charlie will be happy that my brother will be staying with him. That dog loves everyone.
4. Speaking of Charlie, he scared the heck out of John the other night. Charlie is actually not too much of a barker (which we LOOOOOOOOOVE), and when he does bark, it’s this pathetic whisper of a bark (unless he sees the mailman). John was sitting on our couch on Wednesday, and Charlie was like three inches away from his face. Charlie let out this loud howl of a bark at absolutely NOTHING. John’s face was priceless. Oh man, it was great.
5. I made cookies last night…. gluten free chewy oatmeal chocolate chip cookies. I haven’t made these for about a year and a half….. ohhh myyyy gosh. I am trying not to stuff my face with them before we hit the road.
6. I’m not going to lie, I’m probably not going to resurface in the blog world until next Thursday. We’re going to get home late Monday night, I have on Tuesday night, and I don’t think I’ll be able to sit down and write anything until Wednesday night. Baby update will be late - you have been warned.
7. I was a total pregnant cliché yesterday. I wasn’t able to leave the grocery store without a jar of pickles in my hand. Then I ate about five of them in my car. Yeah, not going to apologize for that one.
8. You know how last week I couldn’t get any sleep at all? Now this week I can’t get ENOUGH sleep. I slept through my first alarm yesterday and was shocked when I finally opened my eyes. Give me more sleep!
9. Last weekend I became obsessed with Gossip Girl. I’m always like five or six years behind on shows. I’m halfway through the first season, and I’m not going to lie – that is probably what my first week of summer will be devoted to.
10. Happy Friday!

Definitely checking out that cookie recipe! They sound delicious. Have a great trip this weekend and enjoy some time away from the blog!
Have a great time in Michigan! Regardless of weather, it’s always so nice to get away.
Gossip girl is the best! And hey! Where are you going in Michigan!? I live here
I am in the metro-Detroit area, about 40 minutes north of Detroit in a city called Shelby Township.
Gossip Girl <3 I'm always behind on shows, too, so I'm just catching up on the last two seasons, but omigosh… totally obsessed. I can literally watch 3 or 4 episodes straight. No shame.
Have an awesome trip, lady!
Enjoy your mini vacay!!!
I’m always behind on tv shows too. Right now prison break is my obsession.
Have a great weeeeeseekend!
Yesss, I love gossip girl. The first two or three seasons are great but for me I had to take a big break between when they finish high school and go to college cause it was just getting too much. After about a year break I started watching again and fell in love again. So yes if you hit a wall, just let it be and come back to it when you feel like you’re ready haha I loveeeeeee this show
Yay for being obsessed with GG. You have many, many ups and downs in your future. So juicy! Have a good field day and a fun trip!!
Love that you had the pickle pregnancy craving! So glad holidays are here for you - you must be dying to just put your feet up and do nothing, even if it does sound like you have a hectic week coming up!
Enjoy your weekend away! Will be so nice! Haha! I can see you eating the pickles in your car, love it!
Happy weekend love!
I loved Gossip Girl back in the day. Unfortunately the writing went downhill at the end, but it was always fun to watch. The clothes! The drama!
Lucky you!! Your Summer is right around the corner!!
Have a great weekend in Michigan!
I loved the first season of GG - it was so over the top dramatic!
I’m always a few seasons behind shows too. Although the best part about that is being able to watch episode after episode on Netflix. I really wish I had discovered Once Upon A Time later. I want more!
Have a great trip! Haha, I did the same thing w/ pickles last week… When I got home the husband asked me why the pickles were open;-) that darn salt craving!
so close to summer! yay!
Haha I love the pickle comment. I ate a ton of them during my first trimester. Then all of a sudden my taste buds changed and I had no interest. Go figure!
Gossip Girl is the best! Enjoy it and your summer vacation!!
i’ve never watched gossip girl - i think i’m afraid if i start i’ll get too addicted lol i’m on a mad men kick right now
Have fun on your trip!!
Huuuuuge Gossip Girl fan. I never thought I’d like that show and somehow I got hooked. I am so sad it’s over!
