Happy, happy Monday to you all! We got a late start due to a 4:30AM Ollie wake up call (thanks to teething), but today already feels super productive! Here’s to getting more work done in less time today :] I’m giving myself a 3:15 office clock out time so I can get to the chiropractor’s on time and enjoy the rest of our last Monday before busy season. So I’m racing the clock! Wish me luck!

Last week on the blog, I hinted at some health stuff I’ve had going on, and I’m still dealing with a few things, so there’s been a lot of doctor’s offices! But I’m also starting to feel better than I have all of July probably. So that’s a win! And I’m going to count it that way :] Progress over perfection! The rest of the week was spent balancing work and doing summer-y things like going to the pool in the middle of the day and staying up a little too late playing games with friends. I get this weird anxiety every year around this time about summer and David’s so good at making sure we have lots of fun leading into busy seasons so that I’m not all regretful that we didn’t live our lives. Hope you all are doing the same with what’s left of summer goodness :]

Feels time!

• “You grew up in America! You learned that stuff!”-actual quote from David about bad grammar. It looks like someone’s graduate degree is going to their head :] Hah but seriously, David got his diploma in the mail and we’re both oddly proud of that piece of paper.
• If this video from the Office doesn’t make you laugh and start your Monday off right…then I don’t know what will! Kevin Malone is a superstar. (bonus points if you could guess which clip this was before you even clicked!)
• I spent a weird amount of time this weekend laughing so hard I could not even BREATHE due to this list of tweets. So far, I’ve passed the link around to close friends and no one has laughed quite hard enough for my liking. Anyone out there start crying while reading the list? Please report back.
• We had the CRAZIEST experience at the pool this week. We took Ollie and noticed another baby there about his age. Come to find out, he’s got the same birthday, same birthplace, and SAME DOCTOR WHO DELIVERED HIM. And then we found out that this was the mom that my doctor left to go deliver her baby during my birth process, and came back like a half hour later! Small, small world!!
• Our living room transformation. It’s happening! We’ve been on a mission to get living furniture/redo our living room all summer and we’ve finally figure things out :] Maybe I’ll share when we’re done, but really really we’re just excited to have decisions and throw pillows!

I don’t know if there’s anything more high pressured or anything I love more than shooting a proposal! EEK! So many nerves and SO much fun! We spent Saturday evening out at Mountain Lake Lodge with Tyler and Sam who are now happily engaged! It was perfection and I can’t wait to share!
