I finished christmas shopping online last night. Basically buying all my nieces & nephews something from toysrus. Fx it arrives fast. I bought leo a play doh set ...thanks for the suggestion ash! I was also intrigued by something called kinetic sand but passed on it.
Today went well. Got errands done and did some laundry. We then took a long family nap. Now not sure what time I should try to put leo down. Tomorrow should be very low key. Do not plan on leaving the house with the cold temps.

Good call on the kinetic sand. My older kids had it a few years ago and I think I'm STILL cleaning it up. WORST.
littlelion We have some kinetic sand. DH got it as a Christmas present. It's fun, but LO is not old enough to get WHY it's fun. I think that's half the fun. (Nerd alert lol) ourcrazynavylife OMG you guys look like you had a blast! Em looks so happy! ashlantic Yeah, how did the ornaments turn out?
Baked a cake, made Chex mix, and made some Savory party crackers. That was all by 10am. Went out to dinner for SIL's birthday. Came back and ate the cake. It was so good. Homemade frosting is soooo delicious. Mmm...
Nothing planned tomorrow. Was going to Denver to visit a friend who was flying in from OR/WA, but his plane got cancelled. I'm not terribly upset. We were supposed to meet his girlfriend (he's married, open marriage, possibly soon to be divorced, complicated) who he plans on breaking it off with soon anyway. I was uncomfortable with the whole situation, but with DH being his BF, I have to play nice. I thought being out of HS for 10+ years would have made this drama BS go away. Ugh.
I haven't posted in a while between being swamped at work and having a lovely GI bug, but I've been keeping up with you ladies and love titting lots!
We've had a week of crazy weather here, lots and lots of snow. On the bright side, I got another snow day to get caught up on marking and we had lots of fun playing with F outside. She thought her first power outage was pretty fun
And I made her an ugly Christmas onesie
Can't remember if I already posted this one.. Helping me make a salad by eating almost an entire pepper!
Took lo to see the zoo lights with some friends last night. They decorate a stretch of the zoo with all kinds of lights. It was really pretty.
Lo still doesn't feel great, so being sick + being up late has made for a very crabby toddler today. He's spent probably half the morning crying about something or another. Hoping for an early and long nap.
I still have to paint our salt dough ornaments, I'll post a pic when they're done!
SOOOOOOO stupid AF showed up the morning after I posted about it not coming... I knew I should have kept my mouth shut...DH didn't realize and was asking to DTD and I was like umm NO and he said why did you get your period and I said yes and he was bummed and said " I could have sworn you got pregnant after the other night" LOL... so maybe he is back on the baby making train!!!
My parents watched LO for a few hours last night while DH and I went to my work Christmas party...we had great time and made a pit stop at Walmart on the way home to get a few more things for MIL, she is going to Chicago for Christmas so we are doing Christmas at her house tonight...while at Walmart we got more gifts for LO, I am going to have to save some of them for his birthday...
I am off everyday but Wednesday and Saturday this week so I am thinking of taking LO to the a local petting zoo tomorrow and finish our shopping... I am pretty much done just need to get a few more things for my parent and DH...oh and I bought a gingerbread house for LO and I to make (DH can join if he wants but that is not his thing)...but now that I am thinking about it I need a stool or step for LO so he can reach the counter. I don't want to start the climbing on the chair idea...well I gotta get back to the work thing...hope everyone had a great weekend...
babyw15 sorry AF showed up. Keeping fx for this cycle! Have fun making your gingerbread house. When we do stuff like that I sometimes will just put lo right on the counter. I'm considering switching him from his high chair to a booster seat so that he can do more activities at the table. His high chair tray doesn't have much room for arts and crafts. ourcrazynavylife I love that you're starting Em her own little bracelet! I have an old school charm bracelet from when I was little and I love it.
littlelion cute pics!! ashlantic sorry LO is feeling crummy I've had a cold all week and I'm hoping mine doesn't get it. He's definitely teething and is jamming his whole fist in his mouth too! ourcrazynavylife omg your Disney pics! We are going in Feb and I cannot even wait! Looks like you had a blast! raven I can't remember if I congratulated you on team pink! laceysbryan I hope LO stays in his crib! Mine has since my post the other day. megpie5 she is adorable! babyw15 sorry about AF but I'm glad DH seems to be back on the baby making train!
My mom, sister, and I decided to ditch the old PIA sugar cookie routine and make some new treats! Candy, cookies, and treats galore! (Still going to do sugar cookies with the kids on Friday).
Didn't go to Denver today. Friend's flight got cancelled, so no meeting his girlfriend. Thank you snow. Had a different friend come over and watch the Broncos lose over here. (They had 0% chance of winning this week). Went out to dinner. LO now in bed, DH and I getting ready to watch the walking dead from last week, finally.
