I live in Chicago so St. Patrick's Day is a pretty big deal, it was such a beautiful day we went for a walk and window shopped. On the way home one of the bars had their patio open so we decided to grab a drink. And I got a slice of car bomb cheesecake! It was so good, by far my favorite cheesecake!! And we decided, while having our one sad drink that next year our LO will be going to grandma and grandpa's for the whole weekend!!! Lol.
This warm weather has given me the urge for spring cleaning. It's worse than 3rd tri nesting! DH is playing tennis tomorrow afternoon, so I will be cleaning all the things.
GTKY-I do absolutely nothing on St. Patty's day. Most of the time I forget what day it is.
Today we went to hibachi for my birthday dinner. I was feeding E and she looked over right when they did the big flame. She was terrified. I thought she'd like it because she loves watching me cook. Oh well, food was still delicious. We also went to ikea for some toy storage. How did she get so much in 6 months of life?!
I haven't done more than wear green for St pattys day since college.

I solo parent on the weekend-nights, DH starts getting ready for work about 2pm, so I don't ever really have a lot of plans. I did get out and half walk/half run with LO in the stroller. And I managed to have sex for the first time since LO was born, it wasn't nearly as bad as I thought it was going to. I put this on parenting too, I'm just so excited about it, so sorry if you had to read it twice.

I can't read this morning. To me, it looked like @beckaroo bought her 6 month-old son mascara instead of a maraca... and that @kait20122014 's is a troll instead of "at drill." Mondays are dumb. But yay for Kait on the new job!!
This weekend we spend Friday night at my MILs, and Saturday afternoon with my dad. I love seeing Lu with her grandparents! Got our taxes done on Saturday. As I was taking a look at the summary, I realized the accountant hadn't included my HSA contributions (I contribute the max 5,550 for our family). After she corrected it, our refund increased by more that A THOUSAND DOLLARS. Why do we pay this woman to do our taxes? I think we'll go with Turbo Tax next year.
We didn't do anything for St. Paddy's this weekend. I will not be making corned beef or anything (I tried once and it was gross).

LOL! He's kind of a troll today. He woke up early with a mancold and is about the least pleasant person to deal with when he's sick. I sent him back to bed because I'm hoping the rest of us don't catch it and I don't want to deal!
LOL This is hysterical and I love the mancold reference, OMG I swear every man has this syndrome, its like the world stops when they are sick and they can't do anything but not us Moms! Nothing stops for us!
@kait20122014, THIS EXACTLY...I ended up with a wisdom tooth infection last week and of course have been feeling rundown and on antibiotics and you think I have been getting extra sleep? Nope! DD still wakes up multiple times a night and I always tend to her. He was sick a few weeks ago and literally could not take care of her, what the hell would our kids do without us! haha

Dammit. I always miss these! I somehow missed you being KU again too @lildiamondeyes! Congrats! And congrats to you too @kait20122014 on the new job! Happy late birthday mana8503!
I did not know it was St. Patty's this weekend...Where the hell was I? OMG.
alioop1028 Technically St Paddy's is tomorrow. I was all confused why it was such a big deal on Saturday.
I didn't know it was today either. Haha Thank you for telling me before I actually talk to people today. I would have been like "You're crazy! It was Saturday!"
Taxes, what's that? Whoops, haven't even been giving it a second thought, last year we got screwed so I guess it hasn't been on my list of priorities. Thinking about going the turbo tax route as well since I'm not sure what our accountant is really doing for us!
@kait20122014, Whoops, here we were talking about how they suck with their mancolds, I hope he is better soon and you all do not get it! fingers crossed for you!!!
