It’s amazing what a little vitamin D will do for the soul. \u00a0As I’ve mentioned this week already, Jaia and I have been spending a lot of time outside and it’s paying off in spades. \u00a0I can already feel the cabin fever lifting and my spirits rising. \u00a0I feel rejuvenated.<\/p>\n

When you are happy and feeling good, celebrating other good things that make you happy is in order. \u00a0That’s my plan today.<\/p>\n

1. \u00a0TILES. <\/strong>Dan <\/strong>started tiling the backsplash last weekend, a task that will likely be finished this weekend. \u00a0This kitchen reno has taken a lot out of us (especially Dan) and we will all be thrilled when it’s done. \u00a0A few weeks ago, when all the cabinets, flooring and \u00a0island were in place, I thought it looked great and could see an end in sight. \u00a0Now that the tiles are up, I’m in love. Serious L.O.V.E.<\/p>\n

We hummed and hawed for about which glass tiles to choose for about a month and now that they are up on the wall, I know we made the right decision. \u00a0Stunning, if I do say so myself.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

2. \u00a0TIME<\/strong>. \u00a0We have less than 9 weeks until Frank the Baby makes his appearance. \u00a0I have to admit, some weeks felt like they were each 3 months long, but now that I look back and have already passed the 30 week mark, I can’t believe how fast time flies.<\/p>\n

We have a lot to do to prepare for a new little person in our house, so here’s hoping the next fews weeks are of the slow variety to give me a chance to catch up.<\/p>\n

3. \u00a0LEARNING<\/strong>. \u00a0Jaia has spent the last week perfectling her ‘A’s. \u00a0Seeing as it is the majority letter in her name, she’s wanted to make sure she does them right …everywhere. \u00a0Every chance she gets. \u00a0On every surface she can. \u00a0Dan and I walk into rooms to find the chalk board, the white board or every bit of scrap paper covered in the most beautiful ‘A’s we’ve ever seen.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

The really great part about it is how proud she is of herself. \u00a0Seeing her face when something she’s been working on just clicks is really indescribable. \u00a0What isn’t, is how proud I am of her.<\/p>\n

4. \u00a0CATNAPS.<\/strong><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

There’s nothing I like better than an afternoon nap. \u00a0Seriously. Well, except maybe when Jaia takes an afternoon nap. \u00a0She hasn’t been taking them on a regular basis since about October and some days they are a necessity – for her rest and my sanity. \u00a0So an afternoon nap on a beautiful Friday makes me very, very happy.<\/p>\n

What makes you happy on a beautiful Friday afternoon?<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
