February Recipes + BTS Lately

Life Lately – Behind-The-Scenes

Let’s start with life lately! Goodness, life lately. I guess for starters, I’m pretty happy that February is here. Like so many others, I always tend to sort of struggle through the winter months after Christmas and REALLY (like really really) look forward to Spring. And although it’s still pretty dark and cold in Feb, I’m excited to be just a little bit closer to those warmer days ahead!

Last month we celebrated my birthday, and this month is Cody’s birthday. So all the birthday things! Not the mention Valentine’s Day, which I LOVE celebrating. I love getting little gifts for Cody and my boys and seeing them light up! With me being pregnant this year (and very tired, might I add), we will probably have a pretty low-key celebration this year. But honestly, nothing sounds better!

Here are a few favorite BTS moments from this month…

Speaking of pregnancy, I’m moving right along at 25 weeks this week and starting to get close to the 3rd trimester! It’s definitely getting harder to just do basic daily tasks, and I’m getting into that aches and pains stage. But I’ll still take it over that 1st-trimester nausea, lol! We are getting excited to meet our baby girl. After having two boys, I’m not even sure what to do with a girl! But excited to have a little friend (and be less outnumbered in this house). We still need a name!!
