Winter Weekending

The weekend has come and gone way to fast in my opinion.

Friday we had an awful snow going on all the schools were closed and so I called my Mom (at the early hour of 5:30 am) to see if since she was off would she watch G she said of course and they got to spend the day together. These two have the best connection he loves his GiGi and when I got home he kept telling me "My GiGi coat on, Gayson coat on, outside snow Mama" That was his way of telling me she took him outside to play.

Normally Friday is take out pizza night but we were going out to dinner on Saturday with Michael's Aunt and Grandma so we cooked. Michael made the best smothered chicken I have ever had and french fries. Loved every bite of it. We ended the night with Monsters Inc ( the movie that is always on repeat at our house) and coloring.


Saturday it was super sunny out but still only 14 so it was another day of staying warm and snugly in the house. We played blocks, colored, and put away some laundry. My wonderful mother washed every stitch of laundry when she was at my house on Friday so all I had to do was put it away. I also went through our medicine cabinet and cleaned out some empty bottles of who knows what and expired things. Once Grayson went down for a nap I called Michael to see how his day was and he said Grandma had called and cancelled because she was sick and not feeling well. Michael still picked up pizza and got home right before the storm hit.


Sunday was a heat wave in the 30's and so when my sister called and asked to come over I decided we would head outside for some fresh air and playing in the snow. Well my genius sister brought over a sled and Grayson had a blast. We were outside for about 20 mins (which is all that little nugget of mine can handle) and we just pulled him around the yard on the sled. We came in ate lunch and napped.

We spend the night watching football and getting ready for the week, because this week is crazy busy.

Tonight we have dinner at C&T's house
Tuesday- Grayson gets his first professional haircut
Wednesday- Michael has a Dr's appointment and plays guitar
Thursday- Our only free night!!!!
Friday- Dinner with my brother and sister-in-law (G is spending the night at GiGi's with his cousins)
Saturday- Clean the house day
Sunday- Church and birthday party

Whew I'm tired just looking at that schedule.

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
