My kind of night

So while I have to say that time is flying by in regards to well just life in general but also my baby growing I love every new stage with him.

Yesterday was any typical thirsty Thursday. I got me and the babe ready to leave the house which BTW he is amaze balls in the morning. Happy, smiling, and just a breeze. We have the best little routine. So we get out the door and head to daycare and I get to work and just started chugging along.

Around 2:30 my husband calls and says I got out early I'm going to grocery shop. SCORE!!!! I don't mind grocery shopping but I feel like it takes time away from our family time at night so when he gets out earlier than me and he does it, it is a win win.

I grabbed Grayson when I got out of work and we headed home. I helped Michael put the groceries away and then we started grooving on dinner. My Aunt (G's Mema) stopped over somewhere in this madness and dropped of a Bill's football jersey. Die it is too cute and I cannot wait to put him in it this football season.  He grilled chicken while I cooked the rice. Then he came in to feed G while I finished up the dinner. I made a chicken rice bake using Bison Chip Dip!!! It was delicious.
Anyway I watched him feed Gray and it was so cute. If my hands weren't covered in cheese I would have gotten a video. (note to self get video next time).Grayson chews every bite and then smiles like he really accomplished something. He is loving peas and next is green beans.While dinner was finishing up in the oven I threw in a load of laundry and scrubbed G's tub.

Now that we have the jumper-roo dinner has become a little more manageable for us to be able to eat together. We get a good 15-20 mins out of him being content so we get to sit down and eat together. Which is awesome.
We ate dinner and then it was tubby time for baby G and I cleaned up dinner and did the dishes. He ate every last drop of his cereal and polished off his bottle, burped and fell.right.asleep. You heard right no rocking, no jiggling, no singing just straight up fell asleep. Him going to bed like that and a half an hour early I got to fold 2 loads of laundry and get all the laundry sorted and in the washer ready to go when I get home tonight. It was a pretty uneventful evening but it is the kind I like.

Here are my to do's for this weekend:
- laundry
-finish un-packing from camping (I'm horrible about this)
-scrub the bathroom
-vacuum and mop all the floors
-dust
-pick blueberries (maybe???)
-clean off the front porch
-pack up clothes that don't fit G anymore
I will try and update this weekend with some pictures!!!! Loving life right now!!!

Four Things right now

Four things about all of us right now... Grayson One- This boy has finally found his groove in 1st grade. Kinder to 1st was a big adjustment but he's doing well now. And he is a spelling champ! He does sooooo good on his spelling tests! Two- Hockey is life for this kid. He skates twice a week (once doing a hockey specific clinic and once doing family skate see below) His skills are really growing Three- He loves reading and so we are riding that wave all the way. Four- He has to wear his glasses full time now. What started out as hey wear these when you watch TV that is farther away or when you sit farther from the board has turned into needing them full time. Our school has a local organization that comes in and does eye assessments for free for the elementary schools and they sent home a letter saying get him to the eye doctor he needs glasses (well that was the jist of it) and we since we already had glasses from his eye doctor he just started with tho...

A nice little sweet spot

The sweet spot…. We seem to have hit one. I feel like we have not been in a sweet spot since the twins were about 6 months old. You know before they were mobile and can get into a ton of mischief. When kids are 0-6 months they still like to be held they eat mostly bottles and they mostly just stay in one spot. No issues, you can go places and even though you have to pack up your whole house to be prepared you can relax. And if you are in my family someone is always willing to hold or feed or change a baby. 7-months to 2.5 years old is what I refer to as the lost years. You have so many things you have to do for them they are not potty trained and they are mobile and get into EVERYTHING. Going outside is more work than its worth and with twins they scatter in opposite directions. Three on one is so hard handle in big open spaces. I would often find myself skipping outside time because the work was just too much for me. When the twins turned 3 and Grayson was 6 it felt like we had a ...

Conferences, Grocery Pick up and trying to get out the door

I had grand plans to document our day on Friday. I was going for an every hour sort of thing and then after the 3rd hour lost track I will shoot for next Friday though we will see I'm off on Friday's ( all the happy faces for a 4 day work week and the $$$ saved on daycare ) It was our February break from school so Grayson is home too. I get up at 6:15 on Fridays which is sleeping for me because during the week I'm up at 5 and I head downstairs to do a workout. I'm in a funk right now with that stuff but I still move my body. Today I did a 10 min arm video and 10 min lower body video. I stretch for a few mins and I'm done just in time for Grayson to come wandering down the stairs. I chug some water. Check in with Michael and head upstairs to get Marshall and Charlotte from their beds. They both woke up dry (we are in the throws of potty training and are still in pull ups at night for now) They charge downstairs yelling that they have to pee and demanding...
