Memorial Day Randoms

[kellrr]

How is everyone spending the holiday?
We will be grilling up Juicy Lucys (glorious cheese-stuffed hamburgers) at my parents' house this afternoon, and my BFF is in town and will finally get to meet DS! I'm making Tabouleh to go with our burgers, and I need to hit up the store for the ingredients to do the strawberry rhubarb Moscow Mules. We just did regular ones yesterday so we could just get the garden done before it rained.

Sounds like you have a great day planned kellrr!

We took DD to see our local Memorial Day parade this morning. She was more interested in the crowd than in the parade itself but she did seem to be having fun. They were passing out flags to all of the kids and it was so cute to see DD wave her own little flag! She did eventually try to eat it though so we had to take it off of her, but it was adorable nonetheless

The kid is napping at the moment but when she gets up we're heading to the park. The weather is gorgeous today and I'm so looking forward to getting back outside!

Hope everyone else has been having an awesome Memorial Day weekend!!

Did about a 5 mile walk with my mom and M this morning. Just going to tidy up the house a bit before firing up the grill again this evening!

We were all away for the last week at the beach. It was fun but a ton of work. I don't think I prepared myself at all for how much harder 2 would be for vacation vs 1 . The baby did really well sleeping but our toddler was a mess and would not sleep by himself. Both kids enjoyed the pool and sand and really had fun. I'm just exhausted and need a vacation by myself

Prob not helping, I got pretty sick the last 3 days. We were with group so I tried to suck it up and continued to drink and be outside. Got home, went to urgent care and now am on a strong antibiotic - thankfully I'm starting to feel better but now DH is starting with it uggh.

Oh and last thing, the morning we left for vacation (at 5:30 am) we noticed our baby's eye looked messed up. At our first stop it really looked bad so we called the ped who thankfully called drops for pink eye to a pharmacy at our destination.

pinkie lovetit for the vacay, not being sick.

It's been busier at work today than I expected it to be. I have a feeling that it's going to slow way down and then get busy again before we close (which drives me nuts).

Had some chinese food for lunch. Dh is off work today, but my aunt came out to watch LO so DH could get some stuff done around the farm. My aunt was going to take LO to my parents this afternoon, so I think DH will end up with a kid-free day. Sooooo not fair. Jerks LOL.

I'm a bit peeved at DH because he refused to get out of bed the 2nd time with LO (6am). Apparently LO was wide awake and ready to play at 2AM and didn't go back to sleep until 3:30AM. Tonight if LO wakes up 2:30AM DH is getting his ass up, I've been doing 11hr shifts since Friday. 1.5 more days. I can do this.

KMW08 Hs are tools sometimes. Mine included. Hope yours shapes up.

pinkie feel better fast!

KMW08 TP to DH!


Just leaving pool after 2 hr..DD was not interested in the water. She fought naps hard today and is constipated so that probably explains it. Had such a nice relaxing weekend..so not ready to return to the mean girls at work. But hopefully I will be resigning this week from week. Hope everyone had a great weekend!

Today was the one year anniversary of adopting our dog. Love him even if he does drive me crazy on occasion.
