Our weekend and other things

This weekend was nice and low key. Which I really need lately because work just drains it out of me it's nice to take it slower in the mornings and nap when Grayson does.


Friday- I had a painting class with my Mom and sister so we grabbed Mexican before and then had a blast painting. I was thankful that the class didn't take as long as the last one and I was home by 7:30. I have to say this was not my favorite painting that we did, but it was still fun. They are taking a break for the holidays and then will start back up in February/March. 
This was about halfway through


Saturday- Grayson came into bed with me at 4:30 in the morning and snuggled right up and fell back asleep I had a heck of a time waking him up at 7:15! And yes I woke him up because if he sleeps past 7:30 he will not nap and Mama needs nap time! We got up and snuggled some more on the couch while eating breakfast. Then we folded all the laundry and put it away. He went down for a nap and so did I and then it was dinner and baths. It was just a low key day that was fun.
I could lay like this with him forever I just love this little boy


All the laundry that we washed and dried and put in baskets but it's all done and put away



Sunday- My mom called and asked if she could take Grayson on her errands with her and take him to the park. Of course she could! I cleaned out my car because we on the hunt for a new one that will accommodate our growing family. Then I picked up the house and relaxed until he got home. She brought him home passed out. I carried him up to bed and he slept until 4. We watched football, our Bills squished the Fish and we got another victory. Then I started to go through my maternity clothes because the time is coming very soon where I will be rotating the same outfits!

His face is just pure joy


So a few other things we are looking for a new vehicle and it will probably be a mini van because we just need the room with 3 car seats plus my mom and sister come with me a lot places and I want to be able to still drive everyone in one car. 


I started Christmas shopping and checking things off my list. With being pregnant I'm really trying to stay super organized and ahead of the game this year. I know it sounds silly but this is Grayson's last Christmas before the babies come and I want it to be extra special, which means no stress and just plain fun. 


Happy Tuesday!

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
