Yes to the dress and growing pains

Friday at 3:30 could not come fast enough. I had just had  along week and was ready to not have to get up at 5:00 the next day. I scooped up my nugget from school and we went to get baby donuts. His new thing is to eat them out of the box they come in and I have to say I'm surprised at how good he is about eating 3 and then giving me the box. Plus he requested a smoothing for dinner so I got him one while we were there. I went home and just relaxed. Michael and I had the best dinner. He made cheese quesadillas and then cooked two eggs over easy and put them on top. It was wonderful and even though it was a last minute idea it is going in rotation.


Saturday ahhhh my day to sleep in except Grayson was up at 5:15 because he was hungry and had to go potty so down stairs we went he ate a bowl of lucky charms while I had some honey nut chex and then I fell asleep on the couch while he watched Frozen on the iPad. I got up and got dressed because I had an appointment to meet my sister and all the bridesmaids to help her pick out her wedding dress. Now normally I would go in and help her get dressed in each dress, however due to my belly size and the fact that they lady was super pushy and pushed even my sister-in-law out of the dressing room we all sat and watched her walk out. She tried on about 6 dressed and fell in love with one!!! We are so excited that this is finally checked off the list and that she found one she loves. My dad was watching Grayson for me so I went home right after and him and I both went down for a nap. We had pasta for dinner and we had a stand off about eating dinner. Grayson went to bed without eating because he refused pasta and only wanted to eat cereal which was not happening because he eats pasta all the time at school.


Sunday we had no plans except for snuggle and maybe work on laundry. We had waffles for breakfast which hungry boy at 2 of and then still had a bowl of lucky charms. My mom called and said she was dropping by to see Grayson and play with him while I worked on laundry. She ended up organizing all the toys in his toy room and we threw out a bunch of junky stuff. It looks so much better than it did and we only have a little more work to do in that room and it will be done! I finished up laundry and again after lunch we both took a a nap. After naps I put the laundry away Grayson dressed up as a ninja turtle super hero and we had subs for dinner. Grayson again was fighting eating a fish stick (Michael had a fish sandwich) and it sat on his plate until after bath when he asked for a cookie and I told him he had to eat at least two bites of the fish stick. He ended up doing it just for the cookie! Parent win right there. He did have yogurt a cheese stick and an applesauce for dinner too but I was not letting him get away without eating that fish! We watched Frozen again and then he went to bed and we had brownie sundae's.

It was a good relaxing weekend and I needed it because I'm pretty sure I had a growth spurt with the belly this weekend because there was times the round ligament pain sent me to my knees and stopped me from walking.

This week our B turns 5(!!!!), we have an ultrasound and Dr's appointment and I go for a massage. Plus the Superbowl!!!

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
