Almost slipped my mind that today is Friday, and Friday = 10 Happy Things! Good thing I saw @helgatheweber tweet about hers. Left this tab open while I cleaned what I could with the remaining daylight, lest I forget about it again.
Anyway, here are my 10 for this past week:
- These sunny, chilly mornings we've been having lately. Soaking it all in and trying to do as much as I/we can around the house before winter hits.
- Her Royal Highness Princess Charlotte Elizabeth Diana was born. :3
- The few times that Blu goes to sleep soon after dinner, letting me and Japo watch ESPN in peace.
- Exploring the local park. The trees are changing colour, the sheep were by the river, and it wasn't too windy so I thought a quick walk around would do us good. Watching Blu try to avoid stepping on sheep poo was fun. :)
- Spending time with friends. We had the Pacquiao fight, an initiation, an installation, a playdate, and a birthday tomorrow! Quite a busy week, we usually don't get to see anyone for at least a month haha.
- Texting with Japo while he was on the bus to Ashburton. Calling is our preferred mode of communication because I'm a lazy texter, so it was refreshing to exchange SMS during his 7-hour trip.
- Blu doing more interactive play now. We were at a McDonald's play cafe yesterday and there was this older girl (maybe 5 or 6yo) who took him under her wing right away. She kept calling him "little girl," though, haha. I didn't have the energy to correct her and explain, and I don't think it really matters?
- My Mother's Day gift to myself is here!
- I've mentioned it last time, but I'm really very pleased that I don't have to think of what to cook for three days. Didn't get to catch up on Instagram and clear emails, BUT! I finished three loads of laundry, cleaned the play room and the master's, and filed paper stuff into a clear book. #adult
- And so far, so good on churning out blog posts. Hoping I can write something soon that's not a list, but no pressure.
Looking forward to a stay-home-let's-have-pizza weekend with my boys. Wishing you all have a great one with your loved ones as well! Xx
