Our weekend

We had a nice low key weekend. I need those now my body is just so tired and I'm only at 20 weeks makes me a little nervous for the next 17 but I'm hopeful that I can keep on trucking along.


Friday- We got baby donuts and then went home and just relaxed. I was exhausted from pushing myself a little to hard the day before so I relaxed after dinner and just put my feet up.


Saturday- We had a super fun activity planned with Aunt Halli. We went to a new ceramics studio in Medina and let Grayson paint some stuff. He chose a train bank and a doggie like Riley. He painted to the dog black and then got bored so I had to finish that ha! He then moved onto the train and had the best time. I let him just go crazy and do what he wanted. We got home just in time for lunch and nap (which he has been fighting but then will pass out 10 mins after I bring him back down stairs). I caught a quick nap too and work on some laundry.



Then we had bath time and Grayson is really into cooking so I gave him an old whisk and bowl and he made me chocolate bubble pie in the bath tub that night. He was so very proud!

Sunday- We headed to church and Grayson was looking like a stud. He wanted his hair like daddy so we threw in some gel and headed out the door. We picked up Gigi and Libby and B and headed to church. The kids are pretty good for the first part of service. They are there for opening prayer, and opening song and then they do a children's moment up front where Pastor Beth talks to the kids about Jesus and the power of prayer and where Grayson proceeded to wave to me the whole time then all the kids go down stairs to the nursery and have snacks and play or watch veggie tales. The sermon was really powerful on Sunday and she talked about how if there is a gap between us and God is because we put it there not because God did and wow I needed to hear that yesterday. Once church was over we dropped everyone off and went home for lunch and naps and more laundry. I got some more rooms cleaned out of garbage. I have been trying to get a garbage bag out once a week of just stuff that we don't need.


This week is pretty busy. And this weekend we find out the gender of out two little babes! I'm so excited!!!

Happy Monday!

Four Things right now

Four things about all of us right now... Grayson One- This boy has finally found his groove in 1st grade. Kinder to 1st was a big adjustment but he's doing well now. And he is a spelling champ! He does sooooo good on his spelling tests! Two- Hockey is life for this kid. He skates twice a week (once doing a hockey specific clinic and once doing family skate see below) His skills are really growing Three- He loves reading and so we are riding that wave all the way. Four- He has to wear his glasses full time now. What started out as hey wear these when you watch TV that is farther away or when you sit farther from the board has turned into needing them full time. Our school has a local organization that comes in and does eye assessments for free for the elementary schools and they sent home a letter saying get him to the eye doctor he needs glasses (well that was the jist of it) and we since we already had glasses from his eye doctor he just started with tho...

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 ...

Conferences, Grocery Pick up and trying to get out the door

I had grand plans to document our day on Friday. I was going for an every hour sort of thing and then after the 3rd hour lost track I will shoot for next Friday though we will see I'm off on Friday's ( all the happy faces for a 4 day work week and the $$$ saved on daycare ) It was our February break from school so Grayson is home too. I get up at 6:15 on Fridays which is sleeping for me because during the week I'm up at 5 and I head downstairs to do a workout. I'm in a funk right now with that stuff but I still move my body. Today I did a 10 min arm video and 10 min lower body video. I stretch for a few mins and I'm done just in time for Grayson to come wandering down the stairs. I chug some water. Check in with Michael and head upstairs to get Marshall and Charlotte from their beds. They both woke up dry (we are in the throws of potty training and are still in pull ups at night for now) They charge downstairs yelling that they have to pee and demanding...
