It's a........... Gender Reveal and the weekend

Friday night I scooped up Grayson and we got our baby donuts and headed home we had a simple dinner and then dipped some oreos in blue and pink chocolate to put on our desert table. I got everything around that I could for the next day so that I was not running around like crazy


Saturday we got up and lounged for a little bit wrapped the present for the birthday party Grayson was attending and then got our meatballs in the crockpot for the gender reveal later that afternoon. Michael got home early so I was able to jump in the shower and then my sister came and picked up Grayson to take him to the birthday party that was from 1-3 and then she brought him right over to our party that was from 3-5. We had a very busy day that day.


My mom came and picked me up and we headed to set up for the party and then Michael and my dad came later so that Michael had time to catch a nap and get ready.


We got everything set up, people started to arrive and then around 4 we cut the cakes!



I had this little guessing station set up and at the end the votes were 2 boys but we are having.....



One of each!  A boy and a girl!!!! I'm beyond excited as is everyone else. Baby A is our Girl and she is the bigger of the two at this point and Baby B is our boy. We have names picked out but will not be sharing those until delivery. After the party was all cleaned up we headed to Ed's ( a local dive bar) to celebrate a family birthday. I was exhausted so my saint of a mother offered to take Grayson overnight so that I could rest and get a good nights sleep.



I slept from 9-8:30 in the morning and I needed it. I for sure over did it on Saturday at the party and I was pretty sore all day so I sat with my feet up and binge watched some TV. It started to snow and once Grayson got home we just snuggled on the couch and enjoyed some quiet family time.



I'm so excited to know the genders and now it's all bring on some pink! We go to the doctors tomorrow and I can't wait to hear my sweet babes heartbeats!


Happy Monday!

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
