This week…..busy but seemed to last forever.

Mother’s Day! I had a great one. Still floating on the fumes from Listen To Your Mother, we went to lunch and then I took a nap. It was awesome.

Ivy, who’s real birthday is in July, had her faux-birthday celebration in kindergarten on Monday. Gluten free brownie mix for the win!

I spent way too many hours cleaning the house for a window consultation, and then most of the evening with the window guy in our house. At least this girl enjoyed all of the time she got to spend looking through my wallet. And also, when did her legs get so long??

Ivy, my mom and I did a 5K Saturday morning (more on that later), and then we came home and my girls and I put in our garden…finally.

She wrote out all of the markers for the garden, and I can’t get over how cute it is….she started at the top and went down, some letters backwards. But with excellent handwriting! And so proud of herself.
