What's Up Wednesday

*This post contains affiliate links.
 
It's time for the monthly What's Up Wednesday. I am seriously surprised that I got this post done since I was at home yesterday with a little lady who had pink eye. Yep, Sutton woke up with pink eye Tuesday morning. I feel like I have used so much sick leave since the beginning of the year. Please oh please, let us have some non sick time. We need it.

And how is it the last day of February already?
What's Up Wednesday

WHAT WE ARE EATING THIS WEEK...

Sunday: Stuffed Shells and Salad
Monday: I got my hair done, so I picked up Thai take-out
Wednesday: Date night
Thursday: Instant Pot Beef Tacos and Mexican Rice 
Friday: Not sure
Saturday: Going out with my friend Heather

WHAT I'M REMINISCING ABOUT...

My England and Ireland trip. I have another Ireland recap coming tomorrow.

WHAT I'M LOVING...

Well I finally caved in and bought myself the sandals I have wanted for quite some time. I think they will be a great purchase. They have amazing reviews, are a soft leather and so very cute.

WHAT WE'VE BEEN UP TO...

Working, getting over being sick, going to a princess tea party, going to several kids birthday parties, planning our Mexico trip and living life with three year old toddlers.

WHAT I'M DREADING...

Not much at the moment other than this flu/cold season. We need to knock these sicknesses out.

WHAT I'M WORKING ON...

Cleaning house, prepping for the gardening season, shopping for new fans and transitioning the girls room into big girls room. We are starting to look at twin beds for their room and once we get those purchased, we will need to rearrange, clean out and purchase some new items for their big girl room. I am definitely working on an inspiration board.

WHAT I'M EXCITED ABOUT...

The kick off to all my sisters wedding festivities. We have her bridal shower next month and her bachelorette party coming up in May. I am so happy that she is getting married and I can't wait to be a part of it.

WHAT I'M WATCHING/READING...

I finished When We Were Worthy while I was on my trip and then I downloaded The Wife Between Us. I haven't really started it, but I heard it was good. 
 
As for TV, I have been watching This is Us, The Bachelor, Top Chef, Riverdale, Grey's Anatomy, American Crime Story and The Deuce. When I was in England and Ireland, I started the series Riverdale and got hooked immediately. I watched a season and a half, mostly while at the gym and loved it. I have been watching weekly since I got home. I definitely recommend it if you love Gilmore Girls, Gossip Girl, etc. It is based off a comic series, but is so much more than that.

WHAT I'M LISTENING TO...

Justin Timberlake and Bruno Mars have been my Pandora Stations of choice lately.

WHAT I'M WEARING...

Not much different from last month. I haven't really bought much clothes wise, but I do have my eye on some Spring/Summer wear. I need to get some new clothes for Mexico.

WHAT I'M DOING THIS WEEKEND...

We have two children's birthday parties, a night out with some friends and then a manicure with my sister since we didn't get to celebrate her birthday with her.

WHAT I'M LOOKING FORWARD TO NEXT MONTH...

March brings my sisters bridal shower, Rory's 40th birthday party, my mother-in-laws birthday and the anniversary of when we got engaged. Hopefully we can have a few date nights in there.

WHAT ELSE IS NEW...

Not much else. I am a pretty open book and tell you all about my life on here and my IG.
 
WHAT IS YOUR FAMILY'S FAVORITE SPRING BREAK DESTINATION? 
 
Mexico, of course. We have gone to Mexico during Spring Break for years. We are going a little later this year, but that is ok with me. We have experienced the craziness that Spring Break brings to Mexico. It means drunk people on planes (which also means throw up messes), crazy long taxi lines, busy excursions and restaurants. I am looking forward a more quiet Mexico trip this year.

  1. It's good to hear you keep going back to Mexico. I'm headed there for the first time next month and I always feel when I tell people they think I'm crazy. Hope you all kick these sicknesses!

    1. Oh that is awesome. I love Mexico. Yes, some parts are not great, but for the most part where we go is amazing. We are going to PV. Where are you going?

  5. I realized I never said anything about J's 40th. We are going to count the PCH driving trip as his bday celebration and then just a small family party in June for him. He is not a party center of attention person at all. I need the sandals, I may cave and buy them too, let me know how you like them. I have heard so many people say they like Riverdale so I may need to jump on that one. And I am going to email you about a trip... because I need to meet you.

  6. I haven't watched Riverdale because of it's comic strip origins. I wonder if I'd like it! I hope everyone gets well soon.
