Week in Review

We find ourselves in October, yet it doesn’t feel like fall in Texas. I am really excited about the prospect of cool temperatures coming soon. Sasha, Isla and I had a wonderful, busy week with many highlights, which I’ve outlined below (the first being my favorite):

• This giggle fit (I’ve watched it on my phone at least 50 times!)
• Visits from numerous sweet guests (lots of cute babies)
• Isla passing her four month appointment with flying colors (58% for weight and 93% for length!)
• First FaceTime session with adorable Simon (of Hook, Thread and Tinker)
• Spending quality time with Sophee (one of my best friends who lives in Austin)
• Much needed workouts at Life Time
• A video shoot (more details to come soon!)
• BBQ at Sasha’s cousin’s new home
• Serbian Slava (party celebrating a family’s patron saint)
• Eating out at our favorite places with friends: breakfast at Buffalo Grille, lunches at Local Foods and Counter Burger, and dinners at Empire Turkish Grill, Carabbas, and Adair Kitchen (see all of my favorite Houston restaurants here)
• Officially becoming Texas Exes
• Bedroom furniture shopping at Restoration Hardware (i.e. design heaven)
• Spending four hours at the hair salon getting my hair colored (it has been 8 years since the last time I had blonde in my hair!) and chopped – five inches off – I am still really on the fence about the whole thing though…
• Retail therapy at the new Nordstrom Rack (reference above for why) and getting the cutest chambray tunic for Isla (probably not very comfy, but ohmygosh so cute – to be debuted soon!)

Did you have a good week? What did you get up to? Have a wonderful Monday. xo
