30 Days of Thanks: Friendship

Today, I am most thankful for our friends.

I’m thankful for our La Leche League “friends” who get together one morning a month to support one another.  I love having the opportunity to see how quickly the babies are growing and welcome new little ones.  I love hearing other moms talk and being reminded of how many amazing mamas live here on island.  I’m thankful that LLL exists and is available to help new moms figure out breastfeeding and life with a newborn; I’m so incredibly thankful for all the work that the leader, Sunny, does.

I’m thankful for the blossoming friendship Nora has with Miss E.And for my friendship with her amazing and wonderful mama.I’m thankful for the wonderful evening we had at their house tonight, sharing a delicious meal that Nora and I cooked

(she totally helped and did way more than just lick the beater, I promise!)

and took over in celebration of Baby M.

Who is cuter by the minute…and who is (it’s possible, just maybe) making me finally start to feel the baby itch again.  Just a little…maybe.

I’m thankful for my super-OB friend, Megan, who is going to start blogging over at Papoose soon to help me out.  And for the amazing support I’ve been getting from Jess and Sunny, too.  I’m so optimistic about where this is going to go — even if it’ll be a meandering path to an actual store front, it’ll be meandering through down some exciting paths.

Last, but not least, I’m thankful for recipe experimentation gone oh, so right, in the form of warm and gooey caramel apple upside-down cake.

If that’s not something to be thankful for, I don’t know what is.

Oh, yes, and I’m thankful for our furry friends too,who are just so much fun to squeeze.

    I’m so grateful for our friendship! I just love watching E and N play together. I know your store front will come to fruition. You’ve worked so hard and help so many, it’s only a matter of time. I will be there on opening day!

Z was Raja in an Aladdin production through her dance studio @pasgeorgetown this evening and she did such a great job. I loved watching her. She took a year off dance and is getting back into it and you'd barely know she took any time off, plus she had a big smile on her face the whole time - I could tell she was having a ton of fun. ♥️

What happens when you go on a long weekend trip with only your husband, no kids, and no agenda? 

Lots of walking, cocktails in the middle of the day, singing at a piano bar, and time to write a blog post for the first time in nearly two years. Which I did! 

😮 For real. LOL 😊

Today Chris and I have been married for 15 years. We're celebrating with our first weekend away from children while my mom watches all four girls. We rented an old Victorian from the 1800s near the coast in Galveston, Texas and spent the day at a spa, eating delicious food, walking the beach under the stars, and finished the night with a bottle of bourbon saved from when we lived on Nantucket. I'm not sure I could have asked for a much better day. I even had an oppotunity to get out the lightship basket purse Chris gave me for our 5th anniversary. ♥️

We had a cold snap and yesterday we had to get all bundled up for Zara's soccer game. It was 30 degrees and, despite these pictures, Vivi's patience for being out there did not last long. Tomorrow it's supposed to be 80 degrees and we're really looking forward to warmth again.

By the way, my awesome gaiter came from our client @isacattostudio. Isa paints patterns and makes really beautiful textiles and notebooks with her patterns. ♥️ her work and team.
