Happy Sunday, friends! I hope you’re enjoying the weekend. Today is going to be a busy day for me. I’m heading a couple hours outside of Toronto for a good friend’s baby shower. My friend and her husband couldn’t be any more excited to welcome their little one later this spring. While most couples are excited to welcome their first child, this situation is a little different. My friend and her husband struggled with infertility over the last few years. It’s been a long journey, to say the least. The two of them were fortunate to be able to try IVF last fall and luckily, it worked! I’ve had a stressful and disappointing week, so I’m looking forward to spending the afternoon celebrating.
Without further ado, I bring you this week’s reads, eats and buys!
