Smilings my favorite

I had a whole post I wanted to write about my awesome weekend and then it happened..........

I swear that kids know when parents are going to do something fun without them and they are going to spend the night somewhere new.
Let me back up

Friday I got out of work and got my nails done....let's just say I have already made an appointment to get them done again right before Christmas because this girl is in love. They use a brand called Shelac Gel and it is amazing. Plus with Gel nails they are dry the second you take them out of the UV and they don't damage your nails.

Anyway I left the nail salon, ran to the grocery store for some ginger ale and chip ya know the necessities and then stopped by subway to grab dinner. Let me just say that on the back of my grocery store receipt they have buy one get one free sub so the cheap ass in me was like dinner for under $10.00 yup that's what we are eating. So I call Michael and say that I'm heading home and he was weird on the phone I find out that Grayson would not eat his yogurt for dinner and then threw up. I figured maybe he was just full. Then just as I was pulling in the driveway he had a blow out diaper. I was hoping it was fluke, he seemed fine was still crawling and climbing on everything. Then I fed him his nighttime bottle and he threw up the better part of it. I mean he covered our chair with throw up. My poor baby I got him to sleep and he slept until 5:30 the next morning

Saturday I made the call that he would not be going to my brother's because I didn't want him to get the kids sick and that Michael would stay home with him and I would go to the wedding solo. Grayson has 3 more blow out diapers before I left on Saturday and one during the night

Sunday he was off and not himself. Then the worst happened......Michael got it. He came home from work early and was camped out in the bathroom. Now let me just say men are the worst when they are sick. He kept calling for me and I was all what do you want me to do?

I called the doctor first thing this morning and they told us to stop all fruit and start giving G pedialite. So my dad is being a doll and getting it and taking it over to my sister who is staying with Grayson while I'm at work. Thank God for my family because other wise I would be lost. I'm knocking on wood that I'm not next and just praying that it passes soon.

Grayson got two bath yesterday and 4 different outfits. I had to scrub the bathtub 4 times and I lysoled my entire house 952159 times. So much so that I need to buy more Lysol today. We missed the hubby's Christmas party yesterday and now my stomach hurts.
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...
