It's February!

You're probably thinking, yeah - it's February...the longest short month of the year.  What's so special about this dreary month?! Normally, I might feel similarly in that February is usually a month that feels so long with icky weather and never ending battle with illness. But this year, I'm looking forward to what's to come - A LOT!

1. January 2019 was the WORST month ever as far as weather and school cancellations were concerned.  I'm holding out hope that there is no way February can be as bad.
2. I will be attending my first book club in a long time!  We read Alice's Adventures in Wonderland and Through the Looking Glass (a review to come at a later time).
3. Galentine's Day!! A coworker of mine is hosting a Galentine's Day Brunch and I'm so excited to participate! Brunch is the best!
4. My birthday is the 18th (and there is no school!).  I also have so many friends that celebrate birthdays this month and I feel like they another year of all of our lives is worth celebrating!
5. I only have 12 more work days (at most) before my maternity leave begins! Because....
6. Our second daughter will make her appearance this month! Wow, it still feels so surreal that we will soon be a family of four. And that Claire will no longer be our only child, which was something we had envisioned for her for so long (more on that in another post to come as well).

Are you looking forward to anything this month?!
