Is it really the last week for January? Holy cow, these months are flying. It’s time for another What’s Up Wednesday with Shay! I’ve found a few blogs I absolutely adore through this link-up and can’t wait to meet more of you today.
WHAT WE ARE EATING
Well, I’m doing pretty well if I don’t eat everything in sight these days. Especially days where I work out first thing in the morning – whoa! I can not keep up with my hunger on those days.
One thing I could eat every day is Chinese take out. But I think we all know no one should be eating that on the regular. So the picture below is of one of our favorite, super easy dinners that satisfies my Chinese food cravings! Cook up some peppers, onions, pineapple, chicken (or whatever your family likes) and throw a little of this sweet chili sauce over the top and…perfection.
WHAT I’M REMINISCING ABOUT
I’m trying really hard not to say “when I was skinny and thought I was fat” here (whoops). To be frank and vulnerable really quick, pregnancy can be really hard on those of us who already have (admittedly semi-unhealthy) complexes about these things. So instead 
I’ll say something more positive that I’ve been reminiscing about this week, which is the birth of our Godson! I can’t believe it’s been 18 months since this guy was born. It has been making me think a lot about how the time will fly once Camden is here in May.
WHAT I’M LOVING
Every single thing from my Valentine’s Day Goodies post! I’ll take one of each, please.
WHAT WE’VE BEEN UP TO
A lot of organizing and baby prep around the house! Check out my Life Lately post from Monday for more details.
WHAT I’M DREADING
Truthfully? The only thing I’m really dreading these days is labor. I actually have a pretty high pain tolerance when it comes down to it but what I can not handle is the anticipation of pain. Like, I have full on panic attacks when I know/think pain is coming. So yeah, I’m a little nervous about how that’s all going to go down.
WHAT I’M WORKING ON
Camden’s nursery! See our fulls plans in this post. A few things are on their way to us right now but we really need to plan our Ikea trip to get the big stuff!
WHAT I’M WATCHING & READING
I watch far too much TV especially this time of year but some of my current faves are The Bachelor, Downton Abbey, Teen Mom OG, The Challenge, and The Good Wife. And yes, that is the short list. I just downloaded and started reading The Choice last night and hope to finish it before seeing the movie. I’ve heard great things!
WHAT I’M WEARING
I hope to have my post about the maternity clothes I’ve been loving so far ready to go tomorrow but I basically live in this AE sweater once I am home for the evening! It’s on sale for less than $25 right now and you NEED it.
WHAT I’M DOING THIS WEEKEND
Celebrating this guy’s birthday all. weekend. long!
WHAT I’M LOOKING FORWARD TO NEXT MONTH
More family birthdays, finishing up this cheer season, our childbirth/care class, Valentine’s Day, and maybe most importantly – The Oscars! 
Thanks for stopping by!
