Well, it’s been a minute since I have come in with a Monthly Slice hasn’t it? I can hardly believe that Labor Day weekend is coming up in a couple of days. Where did September come from?
We are currently in a whirlwind of packing, getting ready to move, and hoping that our new home will be done in time for us to move in before the holidays… Delays, delays and more delays… It’s been a wee bit stressful!
Other than the whirlwind of figuring out where we are going to live until our new home is done, we have been busy with Babycakes who is running, loves making silly noises, is obsessed with cars/trucks/anything with wheels, and loves to cuddle. He doesn’t seem to the notice the whirlwind of chaos happening around him and for that I am grateful. Let’s see how long that lasts, as the boxes begin to pile up and furniture starts to move out.
Be sure to scroll down for some Labor Day weekend inspiration!

I’m also stalking all these gorgeous homes because I need inspiration for the rest of the house too!
