It’s the first Nesting of 2023!
How is your year going so far? I have to be honest I have been slow to get back in the swing of things with blogging and just things in general around the house. I read this quote the other day and it perfectly summed up my feelings, “I’m wintering”. So I’m sharing here in case you’re feeling the same way and feeling guilty for being lazy. Give yourself some grace and allow yourself to go through the season of winter.
We got the best news over the holidays and I can finally share! I found out I am going to be an auntie in June! There’s a new little boy joining the cousin crew! We couldn’t be more excited for my sister and brother in law! They are just the cutest.
Here’s what you may have missed lately:

Speaking of reading, has anyone read Prince Harry’s book “Spare” yet? I read some snippets and there are for sure some juicy parts. It is next on my TBR (to be read) list. And if you are looking to read more this winter, be sure to check out my winter reading challenge! You guys loved the summer one so much I decided to do it again for the colder months! You can read the deets here.

Have a great week!!!

January 15, 2023 at 9:29 amCongrats auntie!! It’s such a great job. It’s just my brother and I and we both have one child. Both boys are 25 years apart. My brother is a little slow in doing things. He waited until he was 45 to have a child. My little nephew is 6’6″ and weighs about 260. Yea, he’s our linebacker and a senior in HS. It’s been such a joy to watch him grow up. It was like watching my brother grow up all over.

I love your Monday Morning reset idea so much. I’ve recently started incorporating Tumeric into my day and it’s made a huge difference. Thanks so much for the drink recipe. I can’t wait to try it and share it on Friday! Hugs, CoCo
