Weekly Wins | 09.2025
While every week feels like it flies by, somehow this last week felt even faster. We wrapped up February with lots of park visits and then took a trip to the library to get some new books for March. My new favorite thing is using our online library portal to reserve our books in advance (then I’m not stuck searching for things and can watch/play with the kids while we’re there instead). I also love that I can reserve books from other local libraries and they will bring them to our home branch for pickup!
I’ve again been pretty consistent with my 5AM wakeups, AM yoga/stretch sessions, daily stroller walks and have really found that the consistency has helped shift my overall attitude towards these things (what I mean by that is if someone has an early wake up and I miss my morning yoga, I’m no where near as annoyed by it or upset with myself like I might have been in the past - I’m just going with the flow and know that I’ll have another opportunity for it again later or tomorrow).
Other highlights of the week:
Got out twice for lunch with friends and it felt SO GOOD to catch up. Whether it’s been a month since you’ve seen ‘em or ten years, reach out to someone you want to connect with again and get something on the calendar! I promise your heart will feel so full after!
Packed for our upcoming weekend trip. Gone are the days of simply packing the night before a trip (ha! when I didn’t have two little ones to consider)… but my absolute favorite thing now is to load up their packing cubes and have everything ready a few days in advance. This always helps me guarantee that the outfits I want are clean and ready, not worn or in the wash right before we leave!
We have Chris’s birthday celebration and Callie’s St. Patrick’s Day school party to prep for so I ordered a few things below and have some crafts up my sleeve too!
Here are a few favorite videos and podcasts of the past week:

Podcast: Good Inside with Dr. Becky - particularly the recent Ilana Glazer episode
As always, let me know if you have any feedback, questions or recommendations for things that make you feel good. Hope everyone has a great rest of the week!
