Oh Hey 2023!

January always starts off slow for me… and this week has been all about Willow since she’s still home with me. It’s been super stormy here so I’ve actually loved the excuse to plan rainy play dates with friends, drink lots of hot tea, experiment with new soup recipes, read a ton and just basically stay in that slow holiday mode for one more week. But I am very excited to get back to a more regular routine / posting schedule around here again when I have both Rex and Willow back in school. Next week is my week!

I don’t have any wildly inspiring New Years resolutions or “words” for the year… I think that comes with age and realizing you’re cool with where you’re at?… but I’ve always loved January for a reset. A reminder to be present, to enjoy your people and tune into yourself. Two things I took away from 2022 was how much a mix of both planning and spontaneity fills me up. I’m typically a last minute person but this past year I planned a bit more dates, self-care pampering, and travel on the cal and it gave me so much to look forward to. Especially having a bigger trip like Paris to look forward to for months. So we started the New Year off by booking our family summer vacation and putting more on the calendar in advance again, and it’s already exciting me! Highly recommend!… prioritizing my girlfriend time is so important to me and something that is tricky since so many of my best friends are spread across the Bay and country. So even just getting those phone dates on the calendar is something fun to look forward to.

Happy Happy New Year friends — wishing you the very best!! So grateful for your continued support and for checking in here… I’m excited to pour more love into the blog this year! xx
