On Monday of this week, mini’s teacher asked the class, via Zoom:
“Would anyone like to share what you did this weekend?”
Mini’s hand shot up and I smiled encouragingly. When she was called on, she arranged her face into a scowl and said:
“I didn’t have a weekend.”
We had a good laugh about that because — what is a weekend anymore?
And with that — a fresh crop of new children’s items I have been eyeing:
SWOONING OVER EVERYTHING FROM ITALIAN CHILDRENSWEAR LABEL IL PORTICCIOLO (SEEN ABOVE), BUT ESPECIALLY THIS ROMPER AND THESE EXQUISITE BODYSUITS
THIS DIAPER SET IS A MUCH MORE AFFORDABLE VERSION OF THE LITTLE ENGLISH CLASSIC
ORDERING A PAIR OF THESE FOR MINI’S SUMMER WARDROBE
ORDERED THIS FOR HILL’S SHORTALL COLLECTION
DRAWN TO ALL THINGS FRUIT-PRINT RIGHT NOW — THIS QUILT, THIS PRECIOUS BUBBLE, THIS DRESS
(…AND THESE EARRINGS FOR ME)
NEED ONE OF THESE NIGHTIES FOR MINI
MOST RECENT NIGHTWEAR ACQUISITION: THESE FOR MICRO, THESE FOR MINI
PRETTY (SOPHISTICATED!) FLORAL FOR A LITTLE ONE ($22!)
CUTEST LITTLE POOL SLIDES FOR A LUCKY LADY (FLORAL PRINT REMINDS ME OF THIS DRESS FOR SOME REASON)
SWEET SET FOR A LITTLE LASS ($15)
LOVE THE PRINT ON THIS BABY NEST
ORDERED MORE STICKER BOOKS FOR MINI — SHE LOVED THIS AND THIS, AND I JUST ORDERED THIS AND THIS
FOR SOME REASON, THE KYTE SLEEPSACKS HERE ARE LIKE $15 LESS THAN THEY ARE ELSEWHERE
P.S. The best toys.
P.P.S. Time is a thief.
P.P.P.S. Traditional childrenswear for under $31.
Oh my gosh!! That is just too cute! I have been trying different routines to demarcate my weekends so they still feel like a break from work, but the line is definitely blurred. My goal this weekend is to finish a book that has taken me far too long to finish 😉
Love that — that is what weekends SHOULD be for 🙂

What a funny anecdote! Mini is so on the money. I’ve found myself really leaning into relaxation on the weekends, as a way to demarcate the days when I don’t have to work. Lately, it’s felt like too much to try and get major home projects (aside from routine chores/cleaning) accomplished on the weekend. I need time to CHILL!

Yes! Take that time for yourself!!
