Life Wright Now | October 2022

October felt like it was three months long for our family! We partied our way through four birthdays, so enjoyed hosting my parents, squeezed in a weekend getaway to Ellensburg, and sported whiskers for Halloween. 

Other highlights:
- Starting a new 3-day a week childcare routine with "Mrs. Sarah's School" 
- Hearing the twins say more words!
- Two double dates
- Breaking out the rainboots again
- Kelsey Creek Farm for EDW and CCW's birthdays 
- Riding the Monorail as a family on NLW's birthday
- Excursions to Woodland Park Zoo, Children's Museum, Pike Place Market, Seahurst Park 




Watching | Clips from Schitt's Creek 
I flipped through this coffee table book over the weekend which provides a ton of behind the scenes facts, tidbits, and quotes. It prompted me to re-watch a bunch of the most memorable lines/scenes from this silly-happy show. 

Eating | My dad's French Toast :) 

Reading | Mom Milestones: The Highs, Lows, Surprises, and Joys of Early Motherhood
This was a feel-good two-sitting read, perfect for my "Motherhood" prompt for October. I want to gift a copy to every mom friend I know :) 

Listening | Taylor Swift's Midnights album
My favorites are: Anti-HeroMidnight RainMaroon

Hibernation ahead,

What do you want to be when you grow up: "I don't want to be anything. I don't want to grow up. I just want to be me. I'll just be Norman."
