Things on a Thursday

The end of last week was nothing short of crazy.
I got the worst migraine to date and while it came and went several times I had a headache for 24 hours straight. I only lasted an hour at work on Friday and was home in bed sleeping by 9. I woke up and felt wonderful and have not had a problem since.

Once I was awake Michael and I decided to tackle to big living room/dining room switch. It was a lot of work but I'm happy with the end result. We are closer to the kitchen. The living room is bigger. And we opted out of a coffee cart because I talked my husband into getting a mini fridge in the dining room. Which has worked out awesome!

When Grayson got home from school he was all "woah yook at dis big room mommy it's so cool!" So he loved the change and now all his toys are in the dining room. It is split in two we have our table on one side and then all his toys on the other so it's almost like he has a play room.


Saturday we were up and at it to head to an Easter egg hung that our church does. It was snowy and cold so they held it in the gym and they did a great job!.
It was in my old high school and they have 2 gyms a JV and a Varsity so they put 0-6 in the JV gym and 6 and up in the Varsity. In the JV gym they had lanes taped off so that different age groups were together. It was nice not to have to fight an 8 year old for eggs. Grayson got a bucket full and then we emptied the eggs right there so that they can re-use them for next year. We were there about 20 mins. Oh yeah Grayson hates the Easter Bunny and the only time he didn't freak out when were near him was when we were leaving and he yelled "Bye Bye Bunny" I get it he does have a big head.




Grayson and I ate a "sootie" before church on Sunday. It is 2 cups of spinach 1 cup of strawberries(I use frozen) and 1 cup of yogurt. I blend my spinach with water first so that it gets nice and smooth. Then I add everything else and bam it's a smoothie. No it's not super sweet but it gets veggies in me which is my biggest struggle and G loves it so win win.

Sunday was Palm Sunday at church and it's one of my favorite services. They kids handed out Palms and then paraded through the isles waving them. It was a wonderful sermon. Grayson stayed with my Dad while my Mom and I went to church. My Dad had some dental work done and still has pretty bad bruises on his face to he is laying low.

Monday we had our dinner with C&T but before we headed to their house we went to Tractor Supply and got me some rubber boots for the snirt run. I grabbed a baseball cap too that I don't care if it get ruined or not.

Tuesday we got our family pictures back and oh my word I can't wait to share them with you all. I'm in love and now I'm just working on which ones I will be hanging on my wall.

Wednesday I went to Wal Mart with Grayson to grab a few things for my dessert for Easter Sunday and to pick up some pictures. I always print out every picture our photographer takes and put them in a book. That way I know what they look like printed and I have them on hand. We stopped to see the fishes and Grayson was in heaven. Then it was Mommy and Grayson night and we watched a movie and read every book we own.

 Tonight Grayson goes overnight with my Mom and Dad since school is closed tomorrow for Good Friday which means datenight for us! Nothing to exciting just staying home and working on our gallery wall.

Happy Thursday!

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 ...

Friday Random

Sometimes it's nice to just write about what is going on. So here it goes....... I took Grayson to the store with me to grab a gift card. We can into Dollar General the store I have a love/hate relationship with. The isle's are so crowded and there are a million and one things for Grayson to grab. Needless to say he grabbed tic-tacs, a phone charger and certs all within the first 2 seconds of being there. Once I got him wrangled he asked for a "Dora ba-la-loon" (balloon) I agreed since he had gotten a super good report from school that day. And hey it was a dolla so why not. So we get the balloon, the gift card, and the cards I needed for father's day and head to checkout. Where he grabs to candy bars and laughs because he knows it's naughty. Anyway we get cashed out after lots of redirection and head to the car where he does not want to hold my hand in the parking lot because he wants to run! So I grab his arm and the whole time he is yelling "no m...
