What’s Up Wednesday {1.29.20}

It’s Wednesday and I’m so excited to be a part the What’s Up Wednesday link-up again! Let’s get to it!

1. What we’re eating this week:

We have been all out of sorts lately so I’ve been sticking with some of our favorite crockpot meals.

2. What I’m Reminiscing about:

I’m totally reminiscing about our fun birthday trip to the Magic Kingdom. We had the BEST and most exhausting fun time! Caroline’s 2nd birthday was definitely memorable!

3. WHAT I’M LOVING:

Let me tell you, I’m LOVING my sister’s Corkcicle cup. Yes, it’s my sister’s. She let me borrow it when I visited her and I forgot to send it back with my mom. Oops…I truly did forget (and she said I could keep it) but I’ve been drinking ice water from this cup every day since. I have to say they are definitely worth the money!

4. WHAT WE’VE BEEN UP TO:

We have been busy having fun going to the Zoo, playing at the playground, running errands, getting back into the rhythm of life, and I think we are finally done unpacking from our recent move. Moving is exhausting let me tell you but it was totally worth it!

5. WHAT I’M DREADING:

Hmm…nothing really thank God.

6. WHAT I’M WORKING ON:

I’m working on renewing my teaching certificate. I was a teacher for 8 years and have been a stay at home mom to Caroline for the past 2 years but my certificate is up for renewal so I got in touch with my local county and they gave me great guidance in renewing my certificate. I’m so thankful for the class I’m taking. It’s free and worth 60 points! I’m so lucky!

7. WHAT I’M EXCITED ABOUT:

I’m excited about Valentine’s day, my niece’s baptism, going back to Disney, hopefully making some trips to SeaWorld soon, and just spending time together as a family!

8. WHAT I’M Reading/watching:

Ok, you guys, I’m watching so many different shows right now but I still need some suggestions! John and I just finished Cheer on Netflix. It was soo good! We love a good documentary! We are also watching The Crown. One of the best shows we’ve watched and we’re randomly rewatching The Office. And of course, we’re watching The Bachelor. But for myself, I don’t have a series that I’m watching. I’ve been putting on Harry Potter movies while I’m doing things around the house if Caroline is asleep but I need a new series to watch on my own.

Caroline and I have been watching so many movies on Disney+. If you have kids, you totally need this app. It’s the BEST! And the new Aladin movie is so good, we have it on repeat.

I’m also reading two books. I’m rereading Story of a Soul which is one of the best books I’ve ever read in my life. And I’m also reading from Jenna Bush Hager’s Book Club Nothing to See Here. Both are great reads and really fly by.

9. What I’m listening to:

We’ve been listening to a lot of music on our Echo Dot. Lately, I’ve just been listening to my French Cooking Music station on Pandora and Michael Buble from Apple Music. I just love having something in the background while Caroline and I are playing or cooking.

10. WHAT I’M WEARING:

I’ve been wearing my favorite jeans in the whole world lately. They’re seriously the most comfortable jeans I’ve ever worn in my whole life! I’m not usually a fan of jeans because they make my stomach hurt but these don’t hurt my stomach at all!

Democracy brand has changed my jean wearing world!

11. WHAT I’M DOING THIS WEEKEND:

We are headed to my sister-in-law and brother-in-law’s baby shower this weekend in Orlando and visiting EPCOT!!! Here we come Anna and Elsa!

12. WHAT I’M LOOKING FORWARD TO NEXT MONTH:

John’s birthday weekend! We are actually going to the circus in Sarasota which I’m super excited about! And of course a having a yummy birthday dinner at his parents! YAY!

I’m also looking forward to Valentine’s Day! I’ve already bought several cute things for Caroline from the Dollar Tree and dollar section of Target. And soon after we’re heading to Panama City for my niece’s Baptism and I’m sure we’ll be headed back to Disney.

13. WHAT ELSE IS NEW:

There are a lot of new things in our little world that I will be sharing with you as time goes on but one of the biggest is living in a new home. We are still renting as we’re trying to get out of student loan debt but we are so happy with our new location!

XO,
