Holiday state of mind.
Loving: a few things! Cooler weather in mid-September. Beautycounter's Ultra Renewal Eye Cream (it's keeping me young). Jude's goofy smile. Marcel Market, a french bizarre in Bishop Arts District (where I got my green skirt above). And wearing my first CGM in six months.
Reading: Meg & Jo by Virginia Kantra. Just started! I read Little Women earlier in the year and loved it, so I'm happy to be revisiting the two eldest March sisters.
Stressing over: this seems to always be packing, but alas, packing. Scott and I are headed to Vail for our 5-year anniversary soon, and while I'm a little nervous to get on a plane in the era of Covid, I'm also excited to have a few days off of work/school/parenting. Ha. Although, I'd be lying if I said I wasn't going to miss Jude like crazy! I've never been away from him for more than a few hours, so this will be interesting.
Thankful for: good health and family that lives nearby.
Watching: a lot of science-y things. I just finished the first season of [Un]well, a docuseries about wellness trends, and am currently watching Babies. Scott and I also just wrapped up Black Mirror, a sci-fi anthology series. All on Netflix!
Learning: how to order and interpret lab tests for my nutrition clients. I'm a student again! But only for 12 weeks. Exciting things coming to With Candor Wellness, so stay tuned for more on that.

And French! I've been listening to the podcast Coffee Break French every morning while I get ready and practicing my vocabulary throughout the day. I've always wanted to learn, so hopefully it sticks this time.
And a little bonus fun fact: October is two weeks away. Jude's first October/Halloween! This is HUGE. Let the Halloween movie marathon + education begin!

Any guesses as to what we'll be dressing up as this year?
A conversation with Dad.
The one where Emily goes off the grid.
Excuse the third-person title. I've been watching a lot of Friends.
Today is Mardi Gras (February 25th) but by the time I finish writing and publish this post, a few months will have passed. At least.
A few of my favorite things: Amazon edition.
Confession: I basically rely on Amazon for everything—with the exception of my fresh groceries and monthly Thrive Market haul. Not only do we use the Subscribe & Save feature for all of our household needs (paper towels, toilet paper, cleaning products, etc.), but we have a Prime membership, too, which makes me wonder how I ever survived without two-day shipping.
Reflecting on 2019.
1. What did you do in 2019 that you’d never done before?
I became a mom, aunt, and Godmother all in a span of a couple months, which encompasses a lot of firsts. One of the coolest experiences was attending both my Goddaughter's baptism and my son's within a month of each other.
Jude's nursery.
