Weekly Wins: Hey There Spring!

Happy happy Friday!!! I don't even care that it's Friday the 13th because this week has felt reeeeeally draggy and long. At the end of the day on Monday it felt like I'd been at work for at least 2 days already, so that's kind of where I've been at.

Added to that, MG has been gone for a work conference since Wednesday afternoon which means that I've been solo mom'ing for the first time, the last two nights! Needless to say, Friday is a most welcome friend today!

Even though the week was busy, we had some wins!

~I survived my first time doing solo mom duty and MG comes home this afternoon!

~We had fun visitors Wednesday after work when my friend Bree and her son came by to pick something up, and stayed for a bit!

Usually she has pants on, but this was after dinner time which was a mess

~MG and I have a date night tomorrow night to celebrate our anniversary since we weren't together for it yesterday! #4years

Our first photo together, 7 years ago

~Ella took her first steps between EJ and I last Thursday, and then Wednesday evening she took her first solo steps towards me, letting go of her Pottery Barn chair! Bonus--my MIL saw it since we were on FaceTime! My little bear is growing up!!

~I somehow made it through 5 parent meetings this week, unscathed!

~We have a 2 hour early release today to prepare for the end of the quarter which means I don't have to go to my hoarding coworker's school today!

~I got the cutest new cordless mouse for work, because my other one got lost when I was at the hoarder's office (it has not been found in 3 weeks....is anyone shocked?). Yes, it's a sad state of affairs when you realize that you're an adult because you're excited about your cute new mini mouse haha. I'm ok with it though!

~Near the top of all of the wins (aside from MG coming home) is that it FINALLY feels like Spring!!! Yesterday temps were in the high 70's, and today and tomorrow will be in the 80s! Lots of outdoors time is in my future this weekend!
Also, how cute is this picture from daycare of Ella and her guys having a little outdoor picnic yesterday? Don't mind her outfit--her shirt earlier in the day was a casualty of ketchup apparently

I sent this to family and captioned it "Ella's first 2-on-1 picnic date...who will get the rose?" #bachelorhumor

What are some of your wins this week??
