Weekend Re-cap

Why do the weekends go so fast???? I mean we had 3 whole days and still it zipped by..... Anyway here is the nitty gritty of our weekend..

Friday- Michael's mom stopped by for dinner and to visit with Grayson. Then we relaxed. It was nice to just cuddle on the couch with my boys.

Saturday- Well I woke up to a nice little suprise. Pink eye. Not me but Grayson had pink eye. His left eye was glued shut by green crap. I held a warm wash cloth on it and got it cleaned out as best I could and then called the answering service for the Doctor's office. Thankfully we have the best doctor ever and they got me in. They had that day set aside for physical's only seeing as how school is starting. Well I was in and out in 10 min and the doc confirmed full blown pink eye. Which meant I could not pick up my sweet baby girl Libby. I felt horrible but I just did not want to take the chance that she would get it and then possibly have to miss the first few days of school. So I called and told her and she was more upset that baby G was "sick" then that she would not spend the day with us. I mean that girl is legit the sweetest person ever. Anyway Grayson and I got more done saturday by 10am then we normally do all day. It was wonderful. Then G went down for his nap and I quick threw some food down my throat and baked two pans of brownies and a pan of banana bread. Since G had pink eye we did not want a ton of people around him so Michael stayed home while I went to the art show for my uncle. It was amazing. He is sooooo talented. I'm always in awe of his work. We are lucky to have him in our family because the only art we have in our house it by Mark Weld.

Sunday- Since G woke up with no green goop in his eyes and he had been on drops for 24 hours so I took him to my mom's house to visit Libby and Brayden who spent the night over there. Libby loved feeding him cereal and watching him trying to crawl. We didn't stay too long because I wanted to get him down for a nap. Well he fell asleep on the way home and I got him out of his carseat and into his crib and then he SLEPT FOR 2 HOURS!!!! I was in heaven. I got 3 loads of laundry folded and put away. I scrubbed the bathroom. I swept off the front porch, and I relaxed for a good half an hour watching Big Brother.Then Michael came home and we meal planned and then I grocery shopped.

Monday- We did NOTHING. Well we went to my parents for dinner. But other that we relaxed. It was so nice to just have nothing to do.

So here it my to do list lets see how I did.

Well I guess I didn't do too bad. Happy Tuesday!!!!

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...
