Good Morning! Happy Friday! We have had a bit of a cold snap in Texas this week. Monday morning we woke up to temperatures in the 30s! I am not ready for the cold yet, so I have been dreaming about all the cozy things this week to keep me warm.

Friday Favorites - Cozy Edition
28 August 2020
Friday Favorites
Y'all. We're here - it's Friday. Hooray! This week has been crazy with the first week of classes. I added an extra day on campus into the work from home rotation and I've felt off about my schedule all week. But we're here. We made it to the weekend.
Not that we have any plans, it'll be another low key weekend hanging at the house, but there will be no Zoom calls.
My favorites this week are courtesy of Target! They are killing it with the cute clothes for toddler boys this season. I snagged a bunch of stuff for Henry this week.

Amazon Finds!
With COVID, we have been online ordering more than usual. I've had some really great finds on Amazon lately and thought I'd share what I've loved lately.

Life Lately
Y'all. It's been a minute, hasn't it. Let me start by saying I have missed blogging so much. It's so crazy though. My last post was last October! Which was right before I went back to work after maternity leave. It really took a while to find my stride work wise - balancing working full time with being a wife and mother.
And then we got to March. My beloved grandmother passed away and right after that is when all of the chaos from COVID started to ramp up. Mr. Fisher and I are fortunate enough to work in industries where we were able to work from home. We pulled Henry out of day care for awhile and hunkered down here in TX, only going out to pick up groceries.
That was our life until the beginning of May. Mr. Fisher went back to the office and Henry went back to day care. I am still predominantly working from home and going into the office one day per week. I'll do a separate post soon about what my work from home life looks like, but we are making it work, which is good for our students.

Amazon Lately
Let's be honest, getting out of the house with a newborn is challenging. Many times I've asked myself, is it worth it to get him in the car seat and bring him into the store to get something? Usually not, so my Amazon purchases ramped up a bit the last few weeks. I've got some of my favorite Amazon finds here.

What's Up Wednesday (on Thursday)
Y'all. I know. It's Thursday. But we were traveling from Wednesday to Tuesday and the time to pull the post together just got away from me. So it's a day late. I can't believe September is almost over. I've got about 12 days of maternity leave left. Eeek. It went by sooo fast. Here's a look at our September!

Friday Favorites - Nordstrom Spring Sale
Happy Friday! We made it through another week, friends. Hopefully yours was a little more peaceful than mine, which was super crazy with work.
It's Friday though, which means the weekend is around the corner and we've got a few things on tap. Mr. Fisher's father is in a play this weekend in Garland and we are heading out that way to see him in it followed by dinner at Babe's with the family to celebrate Mr. Fisher's birthday. Sunday we have got to clean the house! I am going to make it to Palm Sunday Mass and we have our maternity tour scheduled at the hospital.
But Friday means Friday Favorites and it's the Nordstrom Spring Sale. I wanted to highlight some of my favorite finds for the sale. I'm not currently shopping for me, since I have the maternity clothes I need to get through the rest of this pregnancy and I'm not buying non-maternity clothes. These are things I would have picked up and there are some really cute finds.
Starting with this one!
I love this hooded sweater. I think it's perfect for these transitional weekends we're having in Texas or to throw over shorts and a t-shirt when you're outside at night.

A Day in the Life - Monday Edition!
A Day in the Life posts are some of my favorites - to both read and write! I haven't done one in a while and thought a random Monday would be a good choice.
5am - my alarm goes off. I lounged in bed for a bit and then got out of bed at 5:14 to start the day.

I wait for this sale ALL YEAR LONG! It really is the best sale. New fall items at 40% off. You cannot beat it. And with Nordstrom's free returns it is so easy to shop from your couch.
But I know, enough chit chat. For the shopping tips - see yesterday's post! And don't forget to sign up for a Nordstrom Card. Get approved and use it that day and you get a bonus $40 Nordstrom Note! And now...on to the best of the best!

Life Lately
As you may have been able to tell by my extended absence from blogging, life lately has been a little hectic. Mainly due to work. Crazy times at the office meant that when the weekend would come around, I had no energy to pour into blogging. Things have started to even out a bit though and I have had a little more time on weekends and I miss connecting with you all! Thank you for your patience with me.
Here's a peek into what's been going on the past few weeks.

Florida Vacation - part two
In case you missed it, I covered our first few days of vacation yesterday. It covers Saturday - Wednesday.
Thursday was Disney Day! This was mainly a relaxing by the pool kind of vacation, but we knew we wanted to do one day at Disney and we picked the Magic Kingdom.

Nordstrom Half Yearly Sale!
Happy Wednesday! Are you counting down to the weekend too? We leave for vacation in 2.5 days! I cannot wait. And bonus? The Nordstrom Half Yearly Sale started today! Yay!
This is not the Anniversary sale that happens in July. But this is still a great sale to stock up on some cute items as we move into the summer season. And let me tell you, summer is here in Texas. 90s this week and we get our first taste of the 100s next week. #yikes #notreadyyet
Now...on to the sale!

Workin' It Wednesday - Ready for Summer Clothes!
Y'all. Work has been a DOOZY lately. Which means I have been wiped out and that mean no blog post for a week. We leave for vacation in just over 2 weeks and I am so excited to unplug and unwind!
Before that though, it's the second Wednesday of the month which means a link up! This month we're talking about how we transition our wardrobes.
Texas weather is CRAZY. I thought New England weather was nuts, but Texas has it beat. And that's just outside. These days it's in the 80s or 90s. I feel like we skipped right over the 60s and 70s and jumped right into Summer. But that also means that when it's 90 outside, it feels freezing inside.
Here are some ways I transition my wardrobe from Winter to Summer (we generally just skip right over Spring around here).

Friday Favorites - Free People
Y'all - we survived another week. I know I am counting down to the end of the semester. Mamas, I'm sure you are counting down the days until Summer Vacation!
And speaking of summer, I have recently fallen in love with the brand Free People. Wearing their clothes feels like endless summer. I have several of their tops and I am eyeing a few more, plus some dresses. As we are full on into Spring and will be sliding into Summer here in Texas shortly, I thought now would be a good time to share some of my favorites with you.

What's Up Wednesday!
Y'all. I can't even believe that we are this close to May!
That meme never gets old.
But seriously, this year is FLYING by! Before we jump into May though, let's recap April.
