Hi friends, welcome back! We are having a great September and I hope you are too. Jon and I spent Labor Day weekend up north with my family in Petoskey, Michigan. My parents rented a house on a lake and it was such a relaxing place to say goodbye to summer. We biked, hiked, played pickleball, and I think everyone’s highlight was the day we rented a pontoon and spent the day out on the water. The following weekend we had our baby shower and had a surprisingly easy drive back to NYC. Now that we’re back in the city our weekends consist of fall fun and working on our long to-do list.
On to my post 🙂 I’ve been linking up with the first blogger I ever read, Shay Shull, for my What’s Up posts. Each month I’m answering the following questions:
What I’m eating: apple cider donuts and freshly picked apples
What I’m reminiscing about: our fall trip to Vermont in 2019
What I’m loving: we had such a nice time at our baby shower and loved being able to celebrate with our family and friends!
Favorite post of the month: my Fall Bucket List
What I’m Up to: all the fun fall things. We went apple picking with our friends last weekend, but I’ll admit it is a pain getting to the orchards from NYC. I think with traffic it took about two hours to get home. At least we had some good company!
What I’m working on: getting everything ready for baby. We finally ordered the nursery furniture so that’s a big task to cross off the list. It’ll get delivered in a few weeks so I think we got lucky.
What I’m excited about: going to the Great Jack O’ Lantern Blaze again. Last year it down poured the day we had tickets so we skipped the trek
What I’m watching/reading: We loved The Perfect Couple and we even saw Liev Schreiber on Friday right across the street from our Target. We’ve also been watching Emily in Paris, Only Murders in the Building, Schitt’s Creek again, and lots of football.
Books I read this month:
- Just for the Summer by Abby Jiminez
- Real Americans by Rachel Khong
What I’m doing this weekend: Jon’s parents are in town visiting and we have our friends baby shower/dadchelor party
What I’m looking forward to next month: our maternity pictures, all the Halloween things, and hopefully some nice fall weather!
What are you looking forward to in October?
