currently

arranging: various appointments. Now that my 2nd Covid vaccine dose is on the schedule for later in April, I feel much more comfortable arranging some other things after the requisite 2-week waiting period: scheduled myself an overdue haircut and a prenatal massage. Yay! Also the dentist. 

craving: pregnancy hasn't really given me any strong particular food cravings either time around (ice cream doesn't count because I always want it), but what I really am craving is being able to sleep on my stomach... only 19 weeks to go. 

discussing: baby boy names (not getting very far yet) and what produce size equivalent we're at for the week (currently a 21-week banana). Hendrik's favorite thing about Mondays is checking my app for the new weekly comparison and it is a very sweet big brother thing to see.

enjoying: the new shaken espresso selections from Starbucks. The chocolate almond milk one is just the right amount of little bit foamy + a little bit sweet (I reduce the malt powder amount so that it's not overpowering) mixed with an iced espresso. My new mid-week treat myself moment, even better enjoyed by a sunny window with a book in hand.

preparing: my feet for their reemergence from wool socks after the long winter. Got my foot file and some heel balm from Olive & June (I'm loving their stuff - if you've never tried, you can use this link to enter your email for $10 off a first order!), and once I get them looking nice, I'm planning to try out this snazzy wild orchid color on my toes.

What are you currently up to, now that we're almost a full week into April already? Share a post below, and then mark your calendars for the next round, which will be May 5th: consuming, exploring, getting, hoping, and seeing.
