Inspired Week

Y’all, first of all there are a LOT of great links this week! It makes my heart so happy when I see great content that reaches me on a personal level and I’m so excited to share!

 

First up, this post from my girl Liz: Baby-Dumb to Baby-Wise and Back. I laughed, I cried, I nodded all along. I told her that she was living in my brain and in my life, which is true. Only her brain is much more clever than my brain.

 

I love Becky’s seasonal produce guides, but after months of pregnancy sickness I’m needing it for inspiration more than ever. Check it out!

 

This interview with Shauna Niequist from Clementine Daily. I love Shauna’s writing and had the honor of listening to her speak at the Allume Conference a few weeks ago. Such a real and inspiring woman!

 

This post on fiddle leaf fig trees from Lindsey made me realize that I need more foliage in my life. I went out to Home Depot shortly after and acquired a dracaena massangeana (which is shortened to “corn plant” in all the articles I read on it) for $10. Granted it’s not a fiddle leaf, but our living room feels much more homey now.

 

If you’ve read this blog for any amount of time you know that we have a huge heart for adoption. This article on zero to three in less than a year inspired my socks off and made my heart grow 10 sizes.

 

This story. A miracle on so many levels. Watch with a big box of tissues, especially if you’re expecting.

 

The day I realized I was no longer the woman my husband wanted. It sounds depressing, but was such a great read. We’re almost 8 years into this marriage thing and I love Nate more now than I ever thought it was possible to love another human being. But it’s hard, and in the throws of motherhood and busyness and pregnancy it’s safe to say that I feel less than fun and sexy and flirty. So thankful for this reminder!

 

Absolutely dying over this post on picky eaters. Welcome to my world, y’all, welcome to my world!

 

Last, but certainly not least, is this great video on scarf tying. I am completely inept in the art of tying a scarf, and can’t read a how-to infographic to save my life, but this video is AMAZING!
