July Goals

3 days late but better late than never

I have big plans for this month


Here is how I did in June and let me just say it was okay


1- PLANT GARDEN BOX-Fail and I missed the boat however I do have my herb pots planted
2- FINISH FRONT PORCH- This is a work in progress but I like to sit out there and enjoy my flowers so I'm calling it a win
3-TAKE FAMILY PICTURES- Done and done now the hardest part waiting for them from the photographer! I can't wait to see them.

4-SWIM- Fail the weather has been awful as in this past weekend it was in the 50's! Putting this one on the list for July
5- TAKE FAMILY TRIP /  EAT SOMEWHERE NEW-Done and done we had the best time on the family trip and we ate at Kitty Hoyne's which was new to all of us!
6- BAKE SOMETHING FUN WITH GRAYSON- We didn't make something new but we did bake so I'm counting it as a win
 
7-DATE NIGHT WITH MICHAEL-Yes we had a date night! It was wonderful we relaxed at home ate pizza and watched a movie!


JULY

1- Watch a fourth of July parade- Grayson loves all things trucks and tractors and cars so we will be watching the parade this year and I can't wait to see is excitement even though as of this morning I was told I'm not allowed to go and he is going with just his Gigi.

2- Smores- I want to make Smores this month as much as possible

3- Swim- weather permitting!

4- Spend a whole day saying Yes- Ok within reason but I want to have a whole YES day with Grayson

5- Get a pedi and a mani- I need a little mommy moment and I want to spend it at the nail salon!

6- Date night or day with Michael- This is already planned but I like to put on on there as a freebie!

Here's to you July may you be the best month yet!

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
