Friday Favorites

Happy Friday, friends!  This week.  Whew.  It was a week where almost nothing went as planned.  

We had to cancel plans, call in grandparent help for rides, alternate taking sick/work from home days for two sick boys and pivot all week long.  Poor Leo is still home sick today.  I'm ready for the weekend while also praying that the rest of us stay healthy.  I'm ready for our regular routine next week.

We still had some favorite moments of the week in spite of the week not going as planned.

1. HomeGoods.  It's my favorite place.  Olive and I picked up a couple of things for her birthday party.  It's not until May, but we like to start collecting party supplies early. Aren't these bows so cute!?

2. Surprise flowers are my favorite.  Pretty bouquet, Kev.

3. I try to keep the ingredients for homemade chicken noodle soup on hand all winter long.  Fletcher wasn't feeling great and he said it was the only thing that would make him feel better.

4. I love changing out my maker's space in my classroom.  It was play-doh last month and now it's a snowman building station.  The kids can play here at indoor recess or sometimes their tables earn a reward to head to maker's space.  They love filling the jars with white beans or cotton balls.  Then they add all the snowman accessories.

5. Leo loves to bake and it's my favorite.

6. Did you see my word of the year?  I wrote about it earlier this week.

7. Pearl.  She's not super friendly to everyone, but she loves me and loves Kevin.

8. When you find art that you LOVE at Marshalls, it must come home with you.  Stay tuned to a little makeover project I'm working on upstairs.

9. Lots of working from home.  Mr. Mittens needed some attention.

10. Yummy school lunches were our favorite.  The kids said they would cry if they had to eat school lunch.  I'm glad they appreciate a yummy lunch from home.

11. Sweet teachers.  Fletcher's teacher lets them pick a BIG candy when they hit big math goals.  He was so happy to get to place his order for sweet tart ropes.

12. Zero the Hero showed up to celebrate the 100th day of school with the kindergarten.  Our superintendent had so much fun being a super hero.  I'm not sure who loved singing and dancing with him more - the kids or him.  The kids loved their super hero Tootsie Roll pops.

13. A perk of me being home more is more time with Olive in the mornings.

14. I'm thankful that Mr. Mittens survived this week.  Let's just say he got himself into big trouble and he lost a couple of his lives.  Check back in next week for that scary story.

15. Bath time is the best time.  Leo took several baths this week and he loved it.  We don't usually have leisurely baths so this was a treat.

16. Iced coffee was life this week.

17. Lots of naps.

18. And these two are making progress in the friend department which is my favorite.  One day I'll find them snuggling and my heart will burst.

 

I hope you have a wonderful weekend!  I'll see you back here on Monday.
