Friday Favorites

We've had a pretty easy and laid back week. I feel like we are finally getting into a grove and it feels good. I plan on doing a full Day In The Life post sometime soon here, but in the meantime, each day is pretty consistent; wake up, work, head out for a walk (with morning snacks), stop at the playground on the way home, home again, breakfast, work, naps, read books, play, clean, work, dinner, baths, and bed. And everything filled in between with the variables of life. 

So, on to a few favorites from our week! 

1. Stopping at the playground. One of the highlights from our week has been taking our morning walk and stopping at the playground for about 30-40 minutes on our way home. 

2. Listening to Miranda's podcast. It's my all-time favorite podcast and I listen every week, usually on my 2-hour drive to my dad's house in CT.

3. These books that we read this past week were another favorite. We need to go back next week and find some new reads. These were great to have a bit of discussion starter with the kiddos about the seasons and what happens in Spring (Adri's all about learning days, weeks, and months right now).

4. Having Adam home each day for lunch is another wonderful thing. He works right here in town and has a long lunch, so we are able to see him in the middle of each day and it's pretty great. 

5. This book. I found it for free at our local Swap Shop, and so far I really like it. A little bit like my beloved Beany Malone books. 

6. Lastly, I'm also really, really loving this parenting book. I plan on finishing it this weekend, but so far it might be the best parenting book I've ever read! 

Also, in case you missed it on the blog this week: 

After the weekend: life lately.
