Weekend fun times

[scotty138]

M is getting baptized tomorrow night. We are having a party beforehand, but not many people are coming. DH's family is busy camping and can't be bothered to come. Too bad for them, because it's going to be awesome and we have cake.

Solo parenting...again. DH is working tonight, then is leaving tomorrow morning for a bachelor party in the Dells til Sunday sometime.

I really need to go grocery shopping. I want to prep lunches and dinners for this week so we aren't trying to figure out meals last-minute like usual.

[jags8]

Oh and going to my mom's to pick veggies from her garden to make baby food.

Cleaning and preparing myself for going back to work next week.

Tomorrow is my birthday! 💃
I totally plan on staying in bed tomorrow for as long as I want....and making DH serve me all the food in bed

Happy birthday! Staying in bed sounds like the perfect day.

Happy early birthday @unicornofthesea!

I'm solo patenting all weekend. DH is doing a guys weekend. Our local baseball team is doing a whole weekend dedicated to a player that is an idol to him and his friends so they are planning on standing in the heat for hours on end to get the giveaways and then watch the games all three days. Have fun with that!

DD and I are hanging at home tonight (I'm cleaning and doing laundry), then tomorrow we are going to my MIL's to visit and Sunday I have a bridal shower to go to. Busy weekend! But it should be fun!

Happy birthday @unicornofthesea!

scotty138, our weekend sounds similar to yours.

DS is getting baptised tomorow night, so we are doing early dinner party at our place before hand, then desert for everyone at our place after.

A bunch of DH's family is coming from out of town, some getting here tonight and staying with us.

Both DH and I have been sick most of the week, the house is a mess, and we have planned nothing for the party. Hopefully Things go ok.

Oh, for realz...

School is starting for my first and I need to finish shopping and plan lunches. Is it normal to send very similar lunches for a week?

Speaking from a teachers perspective: a lot of my students brought pretty much the same thing every day. It was nice when patents would pack what they knew for sure their kiddos would eat! That way I had to do a lot less begging and pleading with the kiddos to eat it anyway so they wouldn't be grumps later!

DD1 is definitely getting sick so I'm sure it'll be a chill weekend.

DH hates olives but DD1 LOVES them. Like she has meltdowns because I'll only give her 6-7 because they are so salty. Her school is kind of silly, so foreign. They have a price they charge for staying late & lunches. She stays late at least once a weekand they've never charged me for any of it. She LOVES the soup & rice she gets for lunch there.... and I'm sure if I fed her soup & rice it would involve a lot of me begging her to eat. I guess peer pressure works on 3 year olds.

@unicornofthesea, happy early birthday!!

GL next week!

Thanks! I will need it. My maternity leave sub left my classroom an absolute mess. It took me 30 minutes just to find my hot glue gun! I should have a pretty good batch of kiddos this year though!

DH took DD1 to a friend's house for a Olympics party and I've been watching a mail order bride documentary. I love mail order bride stories.

Tomorrow is our 5 year anniversary. My MIL is taking all the kids so we can go out to dinner, and then she'll keep the boys overnight. We'll have to come pick up A, but it's ok!

Sunday I'm supposed to go see Bad Moms with a friend.

Happy Birthday tomorrow @unicornofthesea!

Happy anniversary, minae01!

@east, what's the name of the doc? Is it on Netflix? I'm intrigued...

Lots of solo parenting going on this weekend! H is at work this morning so I've got both kids. Not sure what else we will do. I have the pink eye from hell that will. not. go. away.

You said you went to the doctor for that, right? Is what they gave you not helping?

After a trip to urgent care, my PCP and an eye center it was determined it's viral and there's nothing I can do. I need it gone by Wednesday because I really can't miss more work! Plus, my sisters wedding is Fri and I'd really like to wear contacts and eye makeup!

Happy birthday @unicornofthesea!
Happy anniversary minae01

DH is working today and tomorrow so I'll be entertaining the kids and studying when I can. I'm also hoping to continue my decluttering and organizing for back to school.

Monday is still a holiday here and DH is off too so we are thinking of going to the zoo in the morning and I want to make a big dinner at night.

H just asked me if something in the pantry was going to make him start breastfeeding.

My DH refused to eat my lactation cookies because he didn't want to start lactating...ummm it doesn't work that way, but ok, more for me!

Yay for baptisms. DS2 is getting baptized today. We have the pool filled in the backyard and are just waiting for it to warm up.

DD2 keeps asking to get "bathtized" too. She thinks it's a special Jesus bath. She's right, sort of. Lol

Happy Birthday @unicornofthesea!

I took L to CFA and drank coffee while he played. G was napping at home while DH install(s) a new kitchen sink. Then went to party store for supplies for my upcoming piano recital, dealt with a 4 year old's whining because I would not go to Target to buy him a toy, stopped by a thrift store to browse, went grocery shopping and now I'm home keeping L out of DH's hair while he finished installing the kitchen sink that he was supposed to be finished installing before L and I got back...

I am playing piano at church tonight and all morning tomorrow. Hoping for a nap tomorrow afternoon.

My H loves my lactation cookies. I only bake 6 at a time expecting that he will eat at least one.

I was talking about them at work one day so decided to bring a batch in for the girls at my work to have.  One girl asked if they were made from my breast milk....  ummm newp!

Hahaha people are funny about the word lactation!
