First Spring Weekend

March 8, 2016 | baby, blogging, family, fitness, running

Hey guys! I meant to do a weekend recap yesterday but wanted to get my Princess half recap up, so I am going a little out of order. We were blessed with some amazing spring weather this weekend, and we took full advantage of it!

Friday morning I went to boot camp and we spent some time outside running sprints. The sprints weren’t fun, but the sunshine was wonderful! I am finally starting to notice a difference in my muscle mass. Hooray for baby biceps!

Friday Emma Kate had daycare, so I worked and we just hung around the house that evening. Saturday morning we were in and out of the house walking up and down the street with Emma Kate. That girl LOVES to be outside.

After her nap, we took Emma Kate to the park to play on the playground and swing on the swings. We then headed to the yogurt shop to help out and do a couple of things, and it’s a good thing we stopped in because they were swamped! Everyone was apparently out enjoying the weather.

Saturday night Emma Kate must have been one worn out child because she slept until almost 8:30! We were running late for church because I didn’t want to wake her up.

After church we went to Five Guys and ate cheeseburgers outside, again enjoying the nice weather. Emma Kate did great and sat on the bench for most of the time and then just ran around a bit saying hi to everyone. We got some stuff at Fresh Market to grill that evening and went home for baby naps.

While the little one napped, I decided to go for a 5k training run, again, because…sunshine and warmth. One thing I forgot was that a cheeseburger and fries is NOT great pre run fuel and I was HURTING during that run.

Silly girl slept for an hour 45 (who has kidnapped my child? She never sleeps this long!) and was in a great mood when she woke up.

Then it was up and down the sidewalk again until it was time to BBQ.

We had some wine and cooked some chicken and sausage and I got to use my new wine glass from marathon weekend.

We so very much enjoyed being outside and I think we were all worn out that night! I’m excited for daylight savings for the extra daylight but not looking forward to what it will do to the baby sleep schedule.

QOTD: What did you do this weekend?

I really thought he was SO cool when we first met I really thought he was SO cool when we first met in college. 
I mean, he drove a red corvette and was two years older than me. 💁🏻‍♀️

Turns out he’s just been confidently weird this whole time and hiding it really well. 🤣

Anyone else married to a professional goofball? 🤦🏻‍♀️

If you’re planning a trip to Florida’s Forgotten C If you’re planning a trip to Florida’s Forgotten Coast, save this one. 🌊 #RentingTheCoastPartner

We stayed at Singing Waves in Cape San Blas, and it was everything we wanted in a beach getaway: beautiful views, plenty of space, and the kind of place that makes you slow down and actually enjoy vacation.

What really stood out, though, was Renting the Coast. They’re a locally owned, family run company that manages vacation homes throughout Cape San Blas, Port St. Joe, Mexico Beach, and the surrounding Forgotten Coast communities. 

Instead of managing hundreds of properties, they intentionally keep their inventory smaller so they can provide a more personal experience for both guests and homeowners. They’re known for being accessible, responsive, and focused on making sure every stay goes smoothly.

If Cape San Blas has been on your travel list, Singing Waves is absolutely worth checking out, and so is Renting the Coast’s collection of homes along Florida’s most underrated stretch of coastline. ☀️

Ready to start planning your own Forgotten Coast getaway? Click the link in my bio to explore available homes and find the perfect spot for your next beach vacation.

Have you ever visited Cape San Blas?

We’re always looking for ways to be intentional with our family’s decisions, which is why we’ve been learning more about Liberty HealthShare and the healthcare sharing community they’ve built.

Have you ever looked into healthcare sharing before? If you are curious like me, check out the link in my bio or stories for info!

There should be a support group for millennials wh There should be a support group for millennials who still think we’re the “young adults” in the room… until a casual conversation reminds us otherwise. 😭

Please tell me I’m not the only one who’s been personally victimized by the passage of time and a perky Gen Z girlie. 😂

#ad #BraunPartner Less time shaving. More time liv #ad #BraunPartner Less time shaving. More time living thanks to @BraunBeautyUS Smart IPL. ✨ 

I didn’t realize how much mental space hair removal was taking up until it just… wasn’t anymore. Between games, trips, and everything in between, having something I can do at home in minutes has been a total game changer. The app-guided treatments keep me consistent without having to think about it, and I’m already noticing smoother skin that actually lasts. And yes — the full-body, 10-minute-at-home situation still feels a little unreal. 

If you’ve been on the fence, Prime Day (June 14–27) is definitely the moment to check it out with $120 off. #BraunSmartIPL
