Sorry not sorry

Sorry not sorry I don't have a party re-cap with pictures. My sister took most of them and I have not had a chance to get them all organized. So I will give you a little breakdown of the weekend with a few photos that I have on my phone.


Friday- I had the day off!!! And I still dropped G off at daycare. Honestly I needed to get things done and an 11 month old as cute as he is slows things down. So I ran all my errands and baked his smash cake while I was off. Plus I cleaned the house! Which went so much faster than I expected.


Saturday- Michael was off. Which is like heaven and I wish it would happen all the time. I offered to get up with G and let him sleep in. I brought G downstairs and we made a big breakfast for Michael. Then we woke him up and ate as a family. Since I was a mad women on Friday and got everything around for the party that night I had a pretty chill day on Saturday. I felt very little stress. We got to the club and decorated the room and still had time to spare before the guests started coming so I downed a beer.
Then my baby boy came and he made an entrance.

(Ignore the bearded monster in the background that's just my father-in-law)

The party was amazing and he was sooooo good even though he only had an hour nap. The food was awesome. The cake made me want to shove my face in it and the beer was cold. It really was a perfect day and he got so many awesome gifts. My boy he is so loved. Our family and close friends are so amazing. He dove into that cake like it was the only way into heaven, he takes after momma with all the sweets.
(If you look close you can see that his feet are crossed. This kid cracks me up)

Sunday- We relaxed. Michael was off and since I got up with Grayson on Saturday he got up with him on Sunday which was my plan from the beginning because hello daylight savings time. But G actually did really good and slept until 6:15 which is his normal time. We hung out, went through G's presents, I cleaned out his closet and threw a bunch of stuff out and packed some stuff away (which is party of my Lent project more on that later). Then we watched a couple movies. Also I ate cake for dinner because I do what I want.

The weekend made my heart happy and full.

I promise a full update sometime this week on the party. Do's, Dont's and favorite parts.

Happy Monday!

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...
