H A P P E N I N G S :
+ i had labor day off work + it was a much-needed day of rest for us. i relaxed in bed most of the day. the best part of the day was figuring out that my macbook is not actually broken!
+ my friend threw me the sweetest baby shower + my coworkers also had a small shower at work. i have felt so loved this month. if i think about it too long, i get emotional. i am so grateful for the friendships in my life!
+ i got wordle in ONE! stern has been my starting word for over a year + it was finally the word this month!
+ we said goodbye to our beloved 14-year-old golden retriever. we will miss him so much!
+ the boys + i saw transformers one in theaters for a family date night.

- once my doctor scheduled my csection date, i realized, “oh, i’m for real having a baby!” all the to-dos + preparations + nesting swiftly hit me the next day. finally, after days of all the thoughts swirling in my head, i took a blank piece of paper + wrote down every to-do, purchase, appointment, question, etc. i kept it on my desk + added random things every time i thought about it. it freed up so much brain space + i plan to do this a lot more! it’s such a simple practice, but having all my thoughts on paper somehow made it less stressful.
- a divisive or critical spirit is contagious. it is just a fact. i have to actively resist those around me who constantly want to criticize or tear down others.
- “faith is not faith if it is not lived.” - rings of power
- it is an ongoing joke between my mom and + i that don’t send out thank you notes. she has bought me several sets over the years to send out + they have collected dust in a box somewhere. BUT i was determined to send them after my baby showers + I DID IT! 🎉
