With this pregnancy Kenny has really had to help me a lot more. I was so nauseous in the first trimester that I couldn’t even cook dinner. I have been pretty exhausted too. He has really stepped up by cooking dinner and cleaning after he got home from work. On top of the help he usually gives me with the boys. So he works his normal 8 hour day, then comes home cooks, cleans, and gets the boys to bed. It makes me tired just thinking about it. I am soooo thankful that he has been super helpful, but I know he is tired.

When I was shopping at Walmart the other day I came across the new V8 + Energy in 6 pack cans.

I thought this could be a solution to give him an extra boost in the afternoons. He would get a natural energy boost from the green tea, plus get a combined serving of fruit and vegetable. Another great thing about V8 + Energy is it only has 50 calories per 8 oz serving.

What I like about the cans is they are easy to take on the go. If we are heading out to the park or the beach on the weekends he can throw them in the cooler, then grab one when he needs an extra energy boost. You all know taking care of two kids is draining!

    Oh, these sound like they are so much better for you than those other energy drinks! :) And I think we all need a little energy boost here and there. Thanks for sharing this!

    Taking care of 2 kids is definitely draining! So is being pregnant. :) Hope you are able to get some rest. Sounds like Kenny is taking extra good care of all of you. Will have to look for these next time I'm out shopping.

Plus, he researched for hours how to do ceramic coating so now the paint is protected and it should be easier to keep clean. The photo does not do it justice. It’s super slick and shiny.

Still on my to-do list: a gallery wall and living wall, but I'm a bit nervous since I'm not exactly good at that. One day, though... I also dream of getting a projector to display scenes on the big white wall.

I'm going to miss my Halloween decorations when they come down - time to start scouring thrift stores for Christmas decor, I suppose! 🎄
Thanks for coming along on this journey with me. I Thanks for coming along on this journey with me. I am so grateful to have my own library/plant space. 

It will be a few more months/weeks before it’s complete but I’m proud of how far it’s come. 

What I have left to do still: Get the top for my desk and seal it. Organize my craft stuff and put it on the shelves under my desk. Figure out my gallery wall above my desk. Order my @wallygrowplanters for my living wall. And of course buy more books and plants. 😆

It may not be perfect or Instagram “worthy” but it’s mine and I’m proud of all the time and effort we have put into it. The rug arrived today. I am so pleased with how it is coming together. Thanks so much to my cousin @r_holz9 for all her decorating advice and @em.e.hicks for putting up with my million text messages. IKEA bookcases will be here tomorrow. Then need to paint them and start moving my books out there. After I finish with that, I will work on my living plant wall. Not sure when my low bookcases and desk will be built, but it will happen eventually. Almost there. 🙌🏼
