NOT a weekend re-cap

This is not a weekend re-cap because I only did a few things this weekend. The main one was start the good ol' potty training. It's exhausting. And annoying, and exhausting some more. We will get there and I'm not pushing too hard but let me just say this was my view most of the weekend and I only had to clean up one accident so I'm calling it a win. He also got a random fever and a rash and snuggled with me for a good hour on the couch and I soaked that up (he was in a diaper because it was right after nap so there was not chance to get peed on) Also just so this isn't a total lame post I made ham and cheese sliders. I found it on pinterest and adapted it to our family. Here is goes. If you look at the original recipe it calls for the dinner roll size my store was out of them and to be honest the mini sub rolls work way better if your serving for dinner. Plus they are pre cut (in half) so that saved a step Okay so here it is cut the rolls in ...

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...

Bullet points kind of

I had a totally different post planned for this morning. One where I talked about the emotionally draining morning I had with Grayson yesterday and about how hard motherhood can be. And then I got up today and I got dressed and I looked over at the sleeping boy in my bed.  *sigh* I love him so much my heart hurts and that morning we had yesterday is wiped away. So here are some random things...... -I went and saw my niece play in her honors band concert last night. Serious proud Aunt moment right there! -I dream about pina coladas. Like hard core. They are delicious. And made with fruit so good for me? I know that's stretching it but I love them! -Grayson is so smart. Every parent says this but he carries on conversations with me and when he got bit at school he told me who it was and that the teacher thought it was another little girl (who is the known biter) and that she went to time out not who really  bit him. -Michael and I are making huge chan...

We had a great weekend

We had a great weekend and Monday hit me hard this was my desk at 2:00. I never drink soda but I needed caffeine and could not leave work for a Timmy's run so I hit the vending machine. Friday was just a nice relaxing night at home. I knew the next day that I had a fun "yes" day planned for Grayson and so we just took it easy. We had a minor meltdown because we took away a football that he took a huge bite out of (it was one of those nerf ones) and so he lost his mind. Then we had a conversation with Mike Wizowski in the bath tub. It was early to bed for all of us. Saturday Grayson and I slept in until 7:15!!! In out house that is huge! So we took it slow and headed out to the park. We got there at 8:30 and had the whole place to ourselves. He ran around, told me he was a big boy and that I could go sit on the bench and then proceeded to call me to him every 5 seconds to "hewp me up to dat big fing up der" lol boys. We left there ar...
