A few random thoughts...

There are a few things I'd really like to work on about myself so I thought I'd at least put them in writing so I'm more likely to follow through:
1. Grocery Shopping/ meal planning- I've known for a long time that I probably spend too much at the grocery store and don't plan well enough to avoid it.  I'm going to start making myself sit down and plan our meals better and get coupons from online to buy what I need.  I think this will help with some of the stress I feel about dinner time.  I suppose I can't fix the fact that I have a two year old who wants to help me cook.  Dinner has turned into my arch nemesis and this must change!!

2. My OCD tendencies- I admit that I have let go of a lot of the anxieties I feel about messes since having a child but I need to do better.  I think Finn will have more fun if I let loose more often and let him have his toys out all over the place, get wet sometimes and really dirty :)

Quick Life Update- Finn is absolutely loving preschool!  He is seriously teething right now with his incisor teeth and is pretty miserable.  Poor thing!  I'm enjoying a little time to myself while he is out.  I've been organizing things in my house and even went to the store alone (which is pure bliss).  Today it feels like fall is almost upon us and it makes me excited.  I love all the things that fall brings: Halloween, thanksgiving, cool weather, good food, yummy smelling candles, warm clothes and boots, homecoming, and then the Christmas season. 

Blessings!!
