Five on Friday

1. I'm SO proud of my little sister this week. She's been through a HUGE emotional roller coaster and is handling it with such strength, grace and faith. She rocks my world. Thank you so much to everyone who has reached out to her this week. All the words of encouragement have lifted her spirits in SO many ways.

2. Zachary turned three months old this week. It's been a big week for us. He is now rolling over. He gave his Aunt Tori his first giggle (although I still haven't heard it!). She is also pushing up now. He is turning into a little man. I love it. He sleeps about 10-12 hours at night. I'm working on getting him on a 8:00-8:00 sleep schedule at nights.


3. Our first round of vegetables from our CSA came this week. Due to the flooding and the time of year, we're only receiving greens for 2-3 weeks. This week, we got iceberg lettuce, red sails lettuce, collards, swiss chard, and turnip greens. There's NO way that we'll eat this much in a week, so does anyone have any recommendations on how to freeze greens?


4. Zachary is staying overnight with my parents for the first time tonight since he's been born. I can't say I'm not nervous. Zach and I are also going a FULL DATE for the first time since he's been born. I'm a little anxious, but excited at the same time. Zach and I need a night to reconnect. I love you, honey and I'm looking forward to it!

5. We finished our garden in the front of our house. We've also filled the holes in our backyard and put sod down. Next week, we're putting new floors down. Here are the befores and afters of the garden in the front.
