The weekend

Friday night I was solo. Michael was on one of his quests to get a 4 wheeler which left me and the fat boy home alone.

I thought all day about who I could call to come over/ go see so that I wasn't home alone all night but then I decided that I could do it alone and we stayed in.

I picked up takeout and ran to the store for a few things and then we stayed in just the two of us. I have mentioned it here before that my kid is a super picky eater. He does however love this macaroni and cheese from a local restaurant. I wanted a stress free night so I got him that to eat. He gobbled it up and then decided all the extra cheese was good hair gel. I mean this kid was covered in cheese but I let it go and he kept his cheese hair until bath time.

I knew if I could get through bed time then it was smooth sailing and I could collapse into bed. Friday's are always a bad night for me because the whole week catches up with me. I was in bed by 8 catching up on some tv shows. Michael called me at 10 to tell me that they got the wheeler and were heading back home.


He slept at Chris's house for a few hours and then got home around 9. It was nice to have him home on a Saturday. After lunch and nap (for him and Grayson) we went swimming. I'm so glad we invested in a pool last year. It is seriously one of my favorite things to do as a family.

Sunday Michael was back to work and we stayed in the house for most of the day. It was so muggy out that you started to sweat at soon as you stepped outside. We headed to my parents for dinner. They had Libby because they are taking her on a trip to Corning, NY to go to the glass museum. My mom took her and Grayson in the pool before the thunder and lightning started.

Once we got home it was time to just relax with my husband. I really miss him when he's not away.
This week is full of bridal shower prep and house cleaning since I neglected it this weekend.

Happy Monday everyone! And cheers to a short work 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
