Weekend the re-mix

So Friday we relaxed. My sister stopped by to love on Grayson. She misses him since she is not with him 3 days a week at daycare. We played with G and then went into our bed time routine.


Saturday G slept until 7. Ate is bottle which he now holds on his own (insert small tear here because he doesn't need momma anymore) Then he was back asleep by 8:15. He never naps after is first bottle but momma rolled with it. I cleaned the living room top to bottom. Did 2 loads of laundry. Shower and drank my cup of coffee. He woke up at 9:50!!!! That is an almost 2 hour nap which was majorly awesome. Then we are cereal, got dressed and went shopping with Gigi. We hit up Maurice's so Gigi could get a few tops for school. I did not buy one thing!!!! So proud of myself sticking to my budget! Then we went to Target to get Libby's birthday presents because she will be 8 on 9/14. It seems like yesterday she was just born oh time slow the eff down.
Anywho a little side story, back at the end of June there was a water main break one street over from where my brother and sister-in-law live. Long story short their basement flooded and ruined a lot of the kids toys. Thankfully Lib's baby doll's were up stairs but all of her baby clothes were not.End of side story
So for her birthday I hit up the clearance rack at Target to snag some baby swag. I got her 4 outfits for her baby for $6.00. I also have a package of diapers to give her that we never used for G. She will be so excited. I also got her a cute little cardigan, and a couple t-shirts that were on sale for $1.50 a piece. Score and score. My mom of course went bat ish crazy and bought Gray 4 onsies and a pair of jimmy jams. Then we scooted over to Wegmans. I love this store but it is so far away so it is a treat to go. My hubby gave me a budget of $20.00 for the party and I only went over by $5.00. Which just so happened to be a few bottles of beer so it was OK. Grayson looked like this


Then we came home and hung out with daddy. It was just a great day.

Sunday was grandparents day so we had to send them this 


Then we went apple picking 


Then we came home G took a quick nap while I finished getting ready for Tracy and Christ to come over for some football!!!! Here is the good news bad news part. We did not take any pictures. Good because we were just in the moment enjoying family, bad because G looked way to cute in is Bills jersey. We had awesome food. Loaded nachos, loaded fries, chip and dip (Bison dip the only way we roll), meatballs subs, and hot dogs. Oh yeah and lots and lots of beer!!!! And even though our Bill's lost they played good and we will get the W next week. We are all still in our sudden death pool so bring on the pressure of picking another team! 
I checked off some of my September goals already so that was good. 
Happy Monday everyone!!!

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
