The weekend

Grayson is feeling better. But now Michael is sick. He has an awful stomach bug and while I'm madly in love with my husband he is sometimes harder to take care of when he is sick than G is.


We had a super busy weekend and I flew solo all weekend.

My girl found her wedding dress!! She looks stunning and so beautiful. We also picked out our bridesmaid dresses which are so cute and comfortable.

Saturday night I had to go to our annual remembrance dinner for my Grandpa without Michael since he was so sick. My Grandpa passed away 4 years ago on May 3rd. The night he passed none of us had dinner so we all went to a local dive bar that has the best chicken wings for dinner. We ordered a 7&7 (my grandpa's drink of choice) and sat it in the middle of the table until we were ready to leave and then we all passed it around and took a drink out of it. We still go back the same day every year and have a drink with my Papa.

When I got home from that dinner Michael was on his death bed. I called him into work and he was up off and on all night. When he woke up Sunday he wasn't any better so I knew I would be going to the First Communion solo. I decided to skip the church part because it was smack dab in the middle of nuggets nap. Of course his radar went off and he refused to sleep. So we just headed to the party. It was really nice and my baby girl was beautiful. I'm so proud of her.

This week is super busy and packed full. Thursday I have Libby's play (Willy Wonka) Saturday is my brothers fundraiser and Sunday is Mother's day!!! I'm ready for a night to just be and I may be asking Michael for one once he feels better.

I just have to give a shout out to all the single mother's out there because I just don't even know how you do it. I had to be a semi-single Mom for a few days and it has drained me.

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 ...

We got a van!!!

Words I didn't think I would ever type. That I drive a mini-van. A soccer mom car if you will. I loved my Jeep. I knew it would be fine for 2 kids. I was content in keeping it until it was paid off and then getting a different car. I just loved it that much. Then October 27th we found out we would be having 2 babies and that equals 3 car seats and my wonderful Jeep just didn't cut it anymore. We did a ton of research. Weighed our options. Looked into a ton of different cars and even bounced around the idea of trying to make my car work. But then it hit me. I'm alone in the mornings. It is just me that will have to load 3 kids into a car and trying to cram them all into my small (ish) jeep was not something I wanted to battle 3 mornings a week and in the winter. So I knew where I wanted to go and that was a mini-van. I wanted AWD and that narrowed me down to the Toyota Sienna. My cousin sells cars so we contacted him and set up an appointment and went up to...
