Friday favorites vol. 17

Happy Friday, friends! This week has absolutely flown by. I feel like I woke up on Monday blinked and here we are on Friday.

If you’ve been following my blog for a while, you may know that I hate swallowing pills.

My physician recommends women of child bearing age take prenatal vitamins whether they are trying to conceive or not. Most prenatal vitamins are huge, taste terrible, and make my stomach hurt. After doing some research I found a gummy vitamin that is relatively healthy. I love taking them! Is it weird to admit I look forward to taking them because they taste so good?

They’re kind of pricey as far as prenatals go, especially if your insurance provides another type at little to no cost, but if you hate swallowing pills as much as I do, you’ll understand why they’re my new favorite.

This weekend I’m putting together some content for our adoption instagram account @markadri_adopt. It will be in a Q&A format. What questions would you want to ask if you were someone considering us for adoption?

We’ve had some great questions from friends already that we plan to include, making my next favorite the outpouring of support we’ve had from family and friends in sharing our adoption content! It’s been such an encouragement to us.

Mark and I had our first date night out since February last night. We ate on the patio at our favorite local restaurant and it was so fun to do something “normal” again!! I ordered fried green tomatoes and they were delicious.

After dinner while we were enjoying our drinks on the patio, we went through some of the questions here that one of my coworkers shared with me this week.

Not all of the questions were applicable after being married for over 13 years, but lots of them were and it made for some interesting conversation.

Yesterday and today we’ve had new carpet being installed throughout the house. It’s something we talked about doing since before we bought the house 2.5+ years ago, so we are excited it’s happening this week!

One of the most noticeable changes is the stairs, both in the way they look and the amount of cushion you feel when walking up them.

Waking up this morning and taking my first step out of bed I was shocked at how cushiony the floor was compared to how it used to be! So soft and one of my favorite home improvements we’ve done so far.

I recently purchased a new dress, my next favorite, from Banana Republic Factory. It was on super sale and I really like the way it fits! I especially like the little ruffle at the bottom, such a fun feminine detail. I like it so much I almost ordered the other two colors, but I resisted because who needs 3 of the same dress?! YOU should get the other colors so I can live vicariously through you. šŸ˜‰

Hope you have a fabulous weekend!
