LOL: Lots of Links - Volume 6 - Thanksgiving 2020

LOL: Lots of Links - Volume 6 - Thanksgiving 2020

It’s been a while since I shared a lot of links. I have a continuous list going and just never seem to get to it. Then I realized I had a bunch of Thanksgiving ideas saved up and that maybe you’d like to see them. So this LOL is all about Thanksgiving, plus a bonus Christmas one at the end. Happy Turkey Day!

LOL: Lots of Links - Volume 5

Here I am! I’m alive! Just coming up for air after eleven weeks of having two kids. It’s been wonderful and tiring at the same time. Last week I feel like I finally got a groove. I figured out a rhyme with Wesley and feel pretty good about it (notice I say rhyme not schedule. I’m working on a schedule, but not quite there yet. I think it just take some time…making progress, though!). I’m sure now that I feel like I’ve got something figured out, it’ll change again tomorrow because that’s what life is with kids. They are always changing and challenging you especially the first year.

The best I can do for a post right now is to share some links. Next time I think I’ll share some Instant Pot recipes. Does that sound fun?

Okay, are you ready for links? Let’s do it.

LOL: Lots of Links - Volume 4

Well friends, I’m officially in my third trimester. I’m not entirely sure how that happened. The last I checked we were still in August. But apparently it’s almost October now. My mind is now all things baby - and more like, “ahhhhhh, so much to get done before the baby arrives.” I’m sure it’ll all work out, but I’m determined not be packing a hospital bag and putting in the car seat at the first signs of labor. Eh hem, not like that’s happened before or anything. Noooo way.

Since baby is where my mind is at these days, I’m dedicating this LOL volume to just that: baby.

Did you miss my first LOL and not sure what this is all about? Go check it out! 

What do you think of that donut? This is how Caleb decided to eat this donut over the weekend. We missed getting donuts on National Donut Day (Friday, 6/1), but we enjoyed them on Sunday instead. To no surprise to any mom out there, my son chose the donut with sprinkles. #nationaldonutday

My favorite local magazines, South Sound Magazine, put out it's annual Best of the South Sound last month. I love checking out what people like and seeing if matches my likes. Some did, some didn't. Here's the article and then here's what I had to say about it. And why do I always want to type Sound Sound? Ugh. 

OMG OMG, summer is almost here…..

LOL: Lots of Links - Volume 1

Gotcha,  you saw LOL and thought "laughing out loud." Psych! 

When I first saw the LOL acronym I totally thought it meant lots of love. It was a brief misunderstanding and was quickly identified (probably by my loving husband). But since I'm in the game of taking the wrong meaning of acronyms, I'm going ahead and making my own meaning for LOL. Yup, lots of links. 

I am a link hoarder, which is probably why I love Pinterest. Pinterest speaks to me. Another quirk of mine, I will leave a link up as a page on Safari on my iPhone until I get a chance to read it. Anyway, I figured you might be curious in some of the more intersting links I come across. Thus the creation of LOL.
