Making: Plans to visit IKEA sans kids tomorrow night with a friend 
Cooking: I baked subpar muffins from a box and a par cookie cake/bar thing 
Drinking: Coffee, water, coffee, water, coffee, water, coffee
Reading: The Nesting Place  (love!)
Wanting: To finish my first month of budget strong But IKEA. 
Looking: For things to donate/sell/burn (jokes)
Eating: For breakfast recently, coconut greek yogurt or an apple rice cake with peanut butter
Wishing: Caris could see snow. Seasons are confusing for 3 year old Floridians. "Well, the weather gets cooler in the winter, but it doesn't snow in Florida LIKE IN ALL THE PICTURE BOOKS"
Enjoying: Watching my girls dress up in princess dresses daily 
Thinking: "Why didn't I start reserving books from the library y e a r s ago??"
Loving: That "summer" is over. And all the youth pastor wives rejoice! 
Embracing: My perfectly imperfect rental house, thanks to The Nester
Hoping: Our new rug comes sooner than Friday 
Needing: More knock knock jokes to tell Caris (who won't understand them, but will laugh anyways) 
Smelling: My house stinks. Dog? Diapers? Send help. 
Listening: To the shower run (rinsing off a pee-pee accident) 
Feeling:  Motivated this week. Let's carpe some diem! 
Wearing: A pink maternity shirt (a trick I learned from my Ma. They're so long!) and jean shorts
Watching: The Olympics duh and The Great British Bake Off

While there will be drawbacks, the...

She uses raw sugar and roasts her own peanuts) friend tell her child this when he was ignoring his sister. I like it much better than "answer your sister" as it makes them think of the other person instead of just following a command. Thoughts? 4. "Stay three feet away from me...
