Random things

I try to grocery shop on Monday's but yesterday I did not have coupons or a list made out so I'm going today however Tuesday at my store is 6% off for anyone over 60 so that equals shopping that takes longer. I kick myself every time I forget this and go on Tuesday



I have been slacking on working out. I'm about 15 pounds from my weight  but 25 from my ideal weight. I fell off track last week when we had a no sleep night and I feel like I just now a whole week later have caught up.


I'm seriously considering doing a cleanse.....anyone have any recommendations???



The phrase "surround yourself with positive people" has been going through my head a lot lately.


My wedding band still does not fit!! This drives my husband crazy because twice now he has been called my boyfriend or fiance. I don't want to get it sized until I have lost all the weight so I keep pushing him off.


I'm so excited for all the firsts with Grayson we are about to have. Halloween, Thanksgiving, Christmas! I just can't wait!!!!


I love the Gilmore Girls. I watch it on Soapnet and I have watched the complete series I think I'm on round 5. It's an obsession and I watch it every week!


I have the worst time at keeping my table cleared. It becomes a catch all and then when we go to eat dinner there it takes a good 20 mins to get it cleared so most nights we eat in the living room. It's just easier right now because G is in his jumper and occupied. Once he starts eating what we eat well then we will HAVE to eat at the table.


I get asked at least 4 times a week about baby #2. I'm not ready yet and I want to scream it at the people that ask however I smile and say not yet just enjoying this one!



I need new pants. However I just do not want to spend the money when I want to lose more weight but the only pants I have that I can wear and 2 sizes to big and I look frumpy.


I want to go to the movies. However having no days off together makes it hard. I'm trying to plan a night the Wednesday before Thanksgiving since we both have it off.

I ordered my Christmas cards from Minted if you click on the link you get $25.00 off and they address your cards. Done and Done. Plus upload your photo later? So awesome. I got the idea from Katie @ loves of life. 
She is awesome and has a great blog and amazing pictures. I searched the minted site for hours (3 hours to be exact) trying to find the perfect card and I did. Now to get the pictures taken that will go on that card well I'm not there yet.


My office is dressing up for Halloween. My boss requested that everyone (all 5 of us) dress up so I went basic. I ordered scrubs and a stethoscope from amazon for a grand total of $25.00. I know it's lame but I'm not into the big fancy make up costumes.


I signed up for Mint.com to help with our budget. I'm excited for our future and all things we have in the works. Money is hard yo and I have never been good at it. This is visual and hopefully it helps me.


I'm over working. Not really we need my job for health insurance and well the money doesn't hurt but sometimes I want to be home in yoga pants watching CMT with my boys. Blah

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
