Power Query Custom Column nth Day of Month

Hello, I am trying to create a custom column in Power Query that would display the date of the 2nd Monday in the month based on DateTime.LocalNow.

 

I think it will use Date.Year = DateTime.LocalNow, Date.Month = DateTime.LocalNow, Date.DayOfWeek = 1, and Date.WeekOfMonth = 2 but I'm not sure how to piece it all together. 

Need Help

    Here's one way to do it.

     

    = List.Select (List.Dates(Date.From(Date.StartOfMonth(DateTime.LocalNow())), 14, #duration(1,0,0,0)), each Date.DayOfWeekName(_)= "Monday"){1}
