1 - We [finally] started cloth diapering Truett this past week and I am hoping to get a post up about it soon. It has surprisingly been a fairly easy transition and I am glad we decided to make the change. After reading a number of articles about how disposables take approximately 200+ years to decompose (eek!), I was officially convinced.
2 - Vince and I had our first official date night this week and it felt really nice to get out and spend some adult time together. We had gone out once before for a boat ride while at the lake but we were with other people so this was our first solo night out. My mom came over to babysit True and we snuck out right after I put him down to bed. We tried out a new restaurant and it was delicious. I hope we get to go again sometime!
3 - The weather has been pretty gloomy here this week but I have been kind of loving it. Living in the Pacific Northwest, houses out here don't typically have A/C because we only get like one solid week of sweet summertime. But this summer we have had a ton of hot days which results in a hot house. Definitely not easy to keep a baby happy when everywhere is hot. So it's been nice to have some cooler weather and not have to worry constantly if Truett is sweating as badly as I am.
4 - We went house hunting this week a little further North. We have been debating for the last few months on whether or not we should sell our house so that we can have more room for our expanding family. It has been fun to look but the stress of it all can be a little overwhelming. We are still trying to figure it all out but for now there is no pressure on us either way, which is nice.
5 - Both of my sister-in-law's are having their baby showers over the next couple Saturdays, which will be fun and exciting. They are both having little boys and due August & September. It will be so fun to have little playmates for Truett. I am looking forward to spending some time with them and can't wait for their new arrivals!
And finally, just a little cuteness for ya..
That's it for my week so far! How has your week been?
Linking up with Lauren Elizabeth for High Five for Friday and Karli & Amy for Oh, Hey Friday!
Date nights are so much fun! I wish I could talk my fiance into taking me on one but he's so exhausted by the time Friday and Saturday night come around that I almost feel guilty asking because he works 12-14 hour days. And that cuteness at the bottom of your page-- total cuteness overload.
ReplyDeleteI'm interested to read your post on cloth diapering! I plan to go that route when we start our family. Glad you were able to have a date night just the two of you! Have a fab weekend.
ReplyDeleteYay for date nights!
ReplyDeleteThumbs down for hot houses.
Thanks for linking up with us gal. :)
