Happiness
Who’s ready for a little happiness to end the week? Is it just me, or was this week really long and busy? As you may have noticed, I didn’t get to post as much as usual. I’ve been working hard during these last 2 weeks before the March for Babies.
T-shirts are ordered, almost all of the auction items have been mailed or delivered, and we’re finalizing details of the day with our team. We will have a team picture, we will be speaking at the beginning of the Walk, and we also get to do some promotion for it this week. The local news is coming out on Tuesday for an interview! I hope the twins and Mr. B get enough sleep the night before.
I, actually, have not been getting very good sleep this week. I’ve been going to bed early, but then will wake up in the middle of the night, just to toss and turn. Too much on my mind I guess. More on that next week. Now it’s on to just happiness.
10 Things that made me happy
- A little taste of Spring, allowing us to open the windows for the first time since Fall.
- 2 Days of naps for Little P and Big C (even though it involved me putting one in my bed, and forcing me to lay down too. I know. The things we do for our kids. Hee hee.)
- Celebrating a good friend’s birthday, and having some adult conversation.
- Book club. Great book and great group of ladies. (We Never Asked for Wings: A Novel
was the book, and I highly recommend it.)
- A really tough rehearsal. Did I mention I’m dancing in a show in a little over 2 weeks? Check another one off my Thirty before Forty List
- Mr. B feeling better. (He had a fever over the weekend, and was not his normal happy self.)
- Taco night and a living room picnic. A last-minute dinner decision was a success! The twins each ate 2 Tacos, and tried Guacamole…and liked it!
- One summer trip planned, and another will be in the works.
- Oranges.
- Last minute additions to our March for Babies Team. So excited to have more people joining and supporting us. Healthy Babies = Happiness

How was your week? What brought you happiness?
Good luck with March of Dimes!
Thank you!
Hope you’re able to get some sleep this weekend without the mid-night thought sessions. I’ve been having that too until finally last night I slept through the night. I woke up this morning realizing how much that wake-up really throws me off.
It really does. Hope you keep getting some good rest 🙂
What a great week! Taco night sounds like a hit! This week I got organized and started working out again, so that made me very happy!
That’s awesome Samantha!
It sounds like it was a good, full week! I love your idea of a living room picnic — I’m definitely going to use that one someday! Hope you have a great weekend and that your kids nap well!
Thank you Brittany!
Yay! Friday’s always need a little more happiness.
xoxo, Jenny
Agreed 🙂
Making a happy list is the best way to cherish happiness. Love your list! 🙂
Thank you Ashley!
Sounds like some good things going on! Good luck with your dance performance – I’m sure you’ll be great!
Thanks Becky!
LIving room picnics are the best. We don’t do it often, but when we do, the boys love it. Im gonna check out that book too, it looks like a great read! Have a fun weekend!
Yes! Thank you!
Hi Shann,
So happy that YOU’RE happy! I admire what you are doing with the March for Babies. I know it will be HUGE! Thanks for sharing your beautiful family with us. Definitely something for all us to be happy about. Have a great weekend!

Thanks Brenda!
Sounds like you have a lot to be happy about! I’ll check out the book too
Hey girl!
What kind of dancing is this? Ballroom? That’s so awesome!! I read your 30 before 40 post and couldn’t quite tell what sort of performing you do. I used to do dance years and years and years ago but we’ll just leave dancing to times when I’ve had a few. Hahahah!
I hope you have a wonderful weekend! 🙂
I do Ballet and Modern dance 🙂 Ballet has always been my favorite, but never quite had the body for it. But, I still get out there 🙂
Holy smokes, good for you girl. That’s so awesome!! I always wanted to do ballet when I was younger, specifically pointe but that dream never came to fruition. 🙂
I can’t get on pointe anymore, but my feet sure show that I used to 😉
Wow, that’s really, really impressive. 🙂
I just want you to know that though I’m not commenting on a lot of posts, I’m reading every day! Things are nuts here but I like to see what you’re up to! 🙂
Awe. Thanks Sara! I totally understand.
Omg yay for naps!!!! It’s so rare that my daughter takes one anymore that when she does omg…. Best day ever lol!
Exactly!
Sounds like a busy, but fun week. Good Luck on the dancing AND the walk <3
Yes, naps always make me happy. When I was a kid I remember my mother making my sister and I take naps. I never understood why she got made at us when we did not fall asleep quick enough. Once I became a mother I totally got it. 🙂
