some random-ness from the weekend

1. a fabulous (really, really fabulous) date with the hubby this weekend
2. thank goodness for in laws to watch the little one
3. finished reading Eat, Pray, Love this morning (I actually finished a book!)
4. fabulous meal to go with the fabulous date
5. a new journal that fits in my purse
6. new realization that I really struggle to track my thoughts (I think I always knew this, but then forgot I knew and remembered again)
7. struggling with too much wonder and questions in my head, mostly fueled by feelings of incompetence
8. loving that I have a safe place to land and can get love and support from my hubby (see also #1)
9. feeling more balanced now, letting it pass, allowing and accepting my process
10. now: a napping boy
11. looking forward to my lunch date with my aunt (lunch dates rock, especially if they're with people you admire)
12. settling into summer
13. wondering about summer meals (is it just me or do other people struggle coming up with a menu in the summer time?)
14. I can't believe I almost forgot to put this down: the little boy cut his first tooth! 7 months old
15. so also lots of broken sleep and foggy, weary days in the heat
16. really enjoying naps and going to bed early

#13- OMG. Do I ever. I used to do gourmet everynight. Now, with a 20 month old who pretty much like mac n' cheese and cheerios all the time (which I swore MY child would NEVER do), all of my gourmet/organic/healthy seems to have gone out the window. One of the most stressful parts of my week is planning our menu to include healthy fresh foods that are kid friendly. If you come up with a magical list that works, let me know.
