Wanting: the laundry to put itself away; I’m pretty good at steps one through three but putting it away? Not so much.
Watching: Game of Thrones! But finding it… dare I say… a little boring this season? Or maybe it’s too much for my mom-brain. Remember? Gotta keep it simple to keep my attention at the moment. This is growing more pitiful by the second.
Listening: to Pink Martini!
Eating: yogurt and granola, as alwaaaaaays
Smelling: this candle
Wishing: I could relive the moment of my boys’ birth. And the few following weeks. The newborn time just goes way too fast for me.
Enjoying: this baby wrap that was sent to me! Form AND function!
Loving: watching Parker zoom by on our hand-me-down four-wheeler (a kid four-wheeler, that is); it’s adorable.
Hoping: that you guys don’t hate me after yesterday’s post. I’d be both, “Woo-hoo for them!” and “That bitch!” if I were you. I assure you, we’ll have plenty of living-abroad-with-small-children meltdowns and you guys can secretly celebrate them.
Needing: to smooch Anders all the live long day. It makes me the happiest.
Feeling: like I should go to bed earlier
Wearing: these jeans a lot; forget what the naysayers said about the Gap jean (though, for many styles, they may be right). These are awesome for summer. (I’d say that you should size down though, I think they run big.)
Bookmarking: all of your Italy recommendations! Lodging! Eating! Doing!
*I’m wearing the Ack Wrap above and it’s great. I love the stripes and that it’s totally customizable (and that he’s high enough that I can easily kiss his head). Go tighter than you think!

My parents lived in Europe for the past few years and rave, rave, rave about this place. They're going back on vacation later this summer. I'm dying to go myself, but can settle with recommending it to you: http://www.montestigliano.it/english/home.html

Love that your birth experiences were so positive – it is really inspiring and comforting! I'd love to hear more about your postpartum experience. I just entered my second trimester (with my first) and that has me more anxious than the labor + delivery. There are so many stories out there about how difficult/painful and unexpected many elements of the healing/recovery process are, and I'd love to hear about your experience (and any tips or advice you might have), if you ever want to share!
So excited for you guys and your upcoming adventure! 🙂
Licia says
Nah, could never hate you for that, instead I might like you even a bit more – It's Italy, says it all 😉
And I really love these pictures of you three, you are cool team.

I am the same with laundry! I'm great at sorting, washing, drying and folding… but then it stops. I'm sad to say that the piles of folded laundry sit and sit and sit.

It's not you, Game of Thrones is a little snoozy…..I'm just hoping it's off to a slow start, I have faith!
Emily says
This is super cute and I'm totally intrigued by this new baby wrap! I am on the lookout for a Moby replacement for our next go-round (whenever that may be), and was considering the Solly but this looks cuter!

Love the wrap! Cant wait to hear about and see your blog posts on Italy!! Do the kids miss school or is it during summer break?
