Lovely Links

Lovely links is a fun roundup of some of my favorite things from the internet this week. Best served with a cup of coffee on the weekend!

If you follow me over on Instagram, you probably saw that this week has been a bit of a doozy. It started off just fine, but in the middle my younger kiddo was diagnosed with the flu. It sucks so bad when kiddos are sick – I’d do anything to be able to take that sickness from him! The good news is that yesterday he was bouncing off the walls and doing really well most of the day – I’m hoping that’s a sign that he’s going to be just fine. I always worry a little too much, though, and until he’s been 100% for 3 days in a row I just will continue to worry.

 

All the cleaning has been going on ever since then, and I have to say that I am SO OVER laundry. I also texted Nate and said that one of my financial goals this year was to earn enough to justify having a cleaning lady come every 2 weeks. My house is a mess, and therefore so am I. Mama needs some help!

 

I hope you guys are having a great day and on your way to having an even better weekend. And enjoy these lovely links while you’re at it!

1. All this Momo crap has once again reinforced why I don’t want my kids to have access to social media and technology for a looooong time now. Liked this “What I Gave My Kid Instead of a Smart Phone” article!
2. Beautycounter in Forbes again? You bet! All about our new mens’ line that is honestly amazing.
3. These cookie decorating hacks are insane. I want to bake all the cookies now!
4. Like we needed any more of a reason to love Kristen Bell and Dax Shepherd.
5. Homemade cauliflower gnocchi? SOLD.
6. Nike’s new ad is everything. I’ve been watching it as a motivation tool every morning this week!
7. Adore these King Cake donut holes. So cute, so pretty!
8. Cauliflower burgers? Not mad about it!
9. Jimmy Fallon, Weezer, and 80s pop. Yep!
