The perfect weekend

Do you ever just have a weekend that makes your soul happy? That was what this weekend was for me.


Friday- It was mad windy here like power lines down and trees everywhere so once I snatched up my Grayson from daycare we went home got into comfy's and stayed in. We had a nice simple pizza for dinner that my hubby made it was delicious. Then I went around making notes about what I wanted to buy for each room.

Saturday- G and I got up at our normal 7 and once he ate we played for a little bit. Then I got him down for a nap so that he could get one in before we left for shopping and that way I could get ready. He slept for an hour which gave me enough time to pack our diaper bag and shower, get dressed , and eat breakfast. My mom got there shortly after G woke up and fed him his fruit and bottle so I could do my makeup and get the car loaded up. Then we were off. Let me just say that I'm in LOVE with HomeGoods. It has everything and the prices are to die for. This was the first time I had been to a Home Goods that was not in a TJMaxx. It was way better. I got some beautiful baskets for the living room, pillows and a throw that I'm obsessed with. I got some cute Christmas decorations and a tray for the kitchen because we now have a coffee center that we love. We went to BJ's and I picked out glasses we got some necessities (dog food, paper towels, butter) and a pair of jimmy jams for G then we headed home. We spent the rest of the night relaxing as a family and it was wonderful. Then it's time for the bed time routine and Michael tells me that he will feed him and put him to bed so that I can take a bath!!!! I have not taken a bubble bath since Grayson has been born and boy did I need it. I put Pandora on with my headphones and just relaxed. It was wonderful and I felt to refreshed. That is just one of the million reasons I'm so in love with my husband he takes care of me and knows when I need something like that.

Sunday- We watched football and headed to my parents for Sunday dinner. Those nights are so nice spending it with family. It makes me have a perma-grin watching my parents with my son.


Our week is pretty busy but a good kind of busy.

Grayson has started drinking water from a sippy cup and it amazes me that I have a baby old enough for a sippy. I mean he was just born!!!

I hope everyone has a great week!!!!

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
