This, that and other things

So busy week, semi-busy weekend.

Friday- Michael's mother is dropping by to visit G.
Saturday - picking up my adorable niece Libby and spending the day with her and Grayson. Baking brownies, car cleaning(weather permitting) and nail painting (baby permitting) are on the itinerary. Then at night we have my uncles art show. He is an amazing artist and we always support
Sunday- NOTHING is planned so far and I'm hoping to keep it this way and just relax and soak up some time with my boys.
Monday- I'm home with G but not Michael he has to work total bummer. Hopefully it is a light day for him and he can get home to us and we can spend sometime together.

My to-do list for this weekend would be as follows and this is a lose idea because sometimes this girl gets lazy and just wants to snuggle her baby and cup of coffee

Laundry
Finish organizing my closet
Organize the laundry room
Dust
Vacuum floors
Mop floors
Clean out car
Wash car
Clean off front porch ( I know this was on a list from a few weeks ago still have not gotten to it)
Meal plan for the week

OK just looking at that list makes me tired, a full pot of coffee twice a day should help power through atleast some of the above.

In other news...
G is still sleeping through the night AND putting himself to sleep at night. This is HA-UGE in our house. I forgot what it was like to have an affair with my bed. It was starting to miss me and there were threats of it kicking me out all together, but have no fear we are back on good terms.

I should clarify that the CD that G listens to has several track and we put the same one on repeat and it is the heartbeat sound so it's really like white noise. Music itself does not calm my baby down. It turns him into a yelling, leg kicking, arm flailing maniac. We love it when he looses his sh*t when a guitar solo comes on. Future rock star in the making???

I have successfully gotten Grayson into all his summer outfits at least once. And good thing too because his chunky things no longer fit into 9 month short once piece outfits. I mean he must be sleep walking rolling and getting into the ice cream at night. mmmmmmmmmm ice cream.

Our anniversary was wonderful. We don't do gifts we just make each other cards which in my opinion is perfect. I love it. Plus we do dinner and that it all I can ask for is having time with my hubby.

Speaking of dinner I got pizza from my favorite Italian place and I mean I was in heaven!!! It is soooo good and I always order the bigger size so that there are left overs!!

Now I'm going to finish up my work day and enjoy the 3 day weekend.

Friday Favorites

Love that it's Friday Love that its Friday and we have a beautiful weekend ahead of us! Linking up with Andrea today! One These PJ's. When we first got married (and even before I was married really) I used to wear cute PJ's to bed and then I started to wear not so cute PJ's to bed so I ordered some new ones and OMG girls get these now. So so soft so so comfy and under $20.00! Plus they have pockets!   Two While your shopping at Kohls throw some of these picture frames in your cart! Just for fun! I love that they are easy to change out and have a distressed look! Plus they can sit on a shelf or be hung on the wall. Love! Three We have been swimming like crazy and that equals all the things that go with swimming like a million towels and swim suits. My bathroom was a mess. I usually never wash my swim suits I just rinse them out and hang dry they last a lot longer doing it that way and so I had things hanging every where! So I ord

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

Home Schooling

Ah home schooling something that all of the country was thrown into. March 13 th was the last day that Grayson went to school and Charlotte and Marshalls last day was March 12 th . We got the call on March 15 th that school was closed for 2 weeks and that a pick up for at home materials would be on Tuesday. It was not required just suggested and so we loosely did school work. A worksheet here, spelling words here, some math problems ya know simple things. We truly believed that 2 weeks and they would be back in the classroom that is what the district presented as happening and so the distance learning was just to occupy time not to really learn anything new. Everything we were given was review.  Then we got the notification March 30 th we were closed again for another 2 weeks. Again, we were being loose with the learning because I was now working from home all but one day a week and had all three kids home and lets be honest it was a lot. Michael was still working 4-5 days a wee
