Favorite Things: Vol. IX

Favorite Things· Life

this sums up my week:

Me: what quote should I put on the letter-board this week?

Garrett:

Happy Friday, y’all!

I’m currently in week 2 of grad school to get my Masters in Nursing. I’m currently at the “why did I do this phase”– will continue to monitor and update prn.

We have been talking about learning theories (aka behaviorism and cognitivism) and I legitimately feel like I have no idea what I am talking about, but am doing a decent job into fooling others that I do in fact know lots of things.

Welcome to grad school!

Also this meme had me cackling this week because I 100% relate to it and I’m sure every other nurse can too!

At one point this week in order to escape thoughts of discussion boards and curriculums, I went on a massive haul to Trader Joe’s. I could write a whole post on my fave items at TJ (maybe another day), but I just tried these chicken burgers for the first time this week. I ate these like every day for lunch! I love them on a slice of Dave’s Killer Bread, with some Boar’s Head chipotle mayo, and sliced avo <3 Highly recommend!

Lastly, let me share one of the weirdest things I have ever requested.

My brother is super computer-savvy. He codes, designs games, etc. He’s also pretty decent at Photoshop.

A couple weeks ago, at 2 am in the morning, I was scrolling through Etsy when I saw these postings for people to have their dog photo-shopped into a famous painting. Because I am obsessed with dogs and it was also 2 am, I was tears and could not contain my laughter for about 30 minutes. I immediately texted my brother to Photoshop my dog, Lola onto the head of a painting, and this week, he finally completed his commission.

It’s basically my pride and joy, and if you don’t think I wont get it framed and hang it in my home, then you don’t know me.

Have a fantastic weekend my friends!

I’m always trying to get my toddler more engaged w I’m always trying to get my toddler more engaged with nature, so we made a bug hotel together 🐞🐛🦋

I grabbed some bricks from @loweshomeimprovement and used glue to secure a wooden house on top. Then my toddler foraged for pinecones, straw, sticks, leaves, and put them in the holes of the bricks and inside the house. We planted plants around the house, and made a cute little sign to go on top! We also made some bee/bug watering cups out of some shells we collected during our last beach trip! My toddler loves checking on our bug hotel and filling up the bug cups to make sure they have plenty of water 😊

It gives me an opportunity to talk to him about how we don’t want anyone in our community to be hungry and how we can care for others by giving with the abundance we have ❤️ he loves grocery shopping and loves to organize the things we are donating in the pantry, so it always ends up being an activity for him too 😉 #toddleractivities #toddlermom #raisingtinyhumans
