Happy last Wednesday of the month! Just one day before our little Aidan surprised us a year ago with his appearance! Ahhhh…I just can’t even believe it.

As always, I’m linking up with Shay and Sheaffer to share with you what’s going on in our life!

1: WHAT WE’RE EATING THIS WEEK: We had a favorite of Nathan and minethis week: Chicken Tikka Masala. The boys like the naan bread. Just a complete shock, I’m sure, for all of you that have had young kids. Nothing but carbs.

We’re also having salmon this week and Sausage Vodka Pasta for Aidan’s birthday.

2: WHAT I’M REMINISCING ABOUT:

I have so many feelings about our last little boy turning one. It truly doesn’t feel possible that it’s been a year with our baby Aidan. He’s just the sweetest, calmest baby.

Watching Harrison really become so protective of Aidan has been so fun, and Jonathan learning the ropes of big brotherhood – which as this point means having the patience of Job when it comes to Aidan messing up whatever you’re trying to play with.

The day Harrison and Jonathan met their little brother in the hospital will forever be one of my most favorite memories of all. How proud they were of their little bro. Just all of the heart eyes for my boys.

Anyways, I just mostly can’t even believe how fast this year has gone.

3. WHAT I’M LOVING: I absolutely destroyed these from Trader Joe’s…

Now, it doesn’t say that one bag equals one serving, but I am here to tell you, it most certainly is one serving in this house.

We also enjoyed an amazing night to ourselves thanks to a full brother sleepover courtesy of Nathan’s parents!

4. WHAT WE’VE BEEN UP TO: I’ve been doing so many spring planter installations for Landscape by Lauren. I can’t tell you how much fun I’ve had creating and sprucing up people’s homes and businesses this spring!

We’ve also, of course, had more viruses than one family should have in a month. Sicknesses be GONE!

But we’ve also gotten to enjoy some warm, spring days, which have been so good for my soul.

Lots of family time playing with my boys. My very favorite.

5. WHAT I’M DREADING: Spring allergies…The pollen is coming for us! I just know it! We’ve already started our daily dose of allergy meds.

6. WHAT I’M WORKING ON: I’m working on new client’s landscape design. It’s going to be amazing and a complete overhaul of their backyard. They have so many great ideas and thoughts – so it’s been fun and a new challenge for me!

7. WHAT I’M EXCITED ABOUT: We have two big birthdays coming up this next month in our family, and I am so excited to celebrate my little boys!

AND, I got hit in our daycare’s parking lot TWO MONTHS ago, and it is finally getting fixed. Parts were backordered…yada yada…but I’m about to have a car that doesn’t look like slammed into a brick wall anymore.

8. WHAT I’M WATCHING & READING: Right now, I’m reading a historical fiction book called “We Were the Lucky Ones.” It’s been sad….and depressing….but also good at the same time, you know?

Nathan and I have been watching Summer House very regularly, but I am soooo behind on all my other shows. Building a new business has taken over my weeknights and any free time!

9. WHAT I’M LISTENING TO: It’s old….but I keep listening to Luke Combs’ album on repeat. I love it so much. I can’t believe I missed his tour when he came through KC last year!

10. WHAT I’M WEARING: Athleisure….all the time. I should just take this question out…

11. WHAT I’M DOING THIS WEEKEND: We have Aidan’s first birthday party with our families!

And Easter on Sunday! It’s going to be a great weekend!

12: FAVORITE AMAZON FIND THIS MONTH:

It’s going to sound weird….but I am anxiously awaiting the arrival of this cute little toaster. Nathan, our resident morning toastmaster (because all of the boys like toast for their breakfast), said we needed to invest in a legitimate toaster with four slots. I took it to heart, and couldn’t pass up this cute little retro looking one!

13. WHAT I’M LOOKING FORWARD TO NEXT MONTH:

Birthdays! Easter! Spring! Grilling! AHHH. It’s my most favorite time of the year! SPRING!

Happy Wednesday, friends!
