Tomorrow a friend is coming over and bringing her son to our house for a playdate. Hubs has to work on Saturday but then we are going out on a double date with our best couple friends. I am super excited, although we're going to a Mexican restaurant and I am wishing for a margarita, but oh well. Should be fun regardless! We are going to ask them to be the Baby's Godparents (eeeeek!). They have already agreed to be the legal guardian for Tyler should something happen to us, so I am really really excited!
On Sunday, we are going to start decluttering the house and start packing up. Regardless of how house hunting works out, we cannot fit another person in this tiny rental. So we have to move and want to start getting prepped for that. Suuuuper exciting stuff here!
I am working tomorrow and then going out for drinks with some girlfriends. I'm hoping to get a bunch of stuff done around the house Sunday. I also have book club on Tuesday and haven't started the book yet so hopefully reading at some point too lol.
We have to run errands tomorrow and then we might, if I'm feeling daring, go out to dinner as a family. I'm drinking all the wine and eating whatever I want all weekend because Monday starts this weight loss challenge group that I joined with some friends here. It's just a group of us that are going to hold each other accountable. No food/workout program per say just doing whatever we need to do on an individual basis to shed some weight. I need this to get my ass in gear and I know I'll have to cut my drinking/snacking by a ton but I'm just not comfortable where I am right now. I look at pictures of myself from when Henry turned one and I looked good. I am only a month and a half away from that with Cece and I still can't fit into my normal jeans and I'm not happy about it.
Noting too exciting. My H was oot all week for work so I am looking forward to having another adult in the house and a bit of a break from the kiddos. The days are sooo long without him here.
I have lots of gift cards from Christmas and my birthday, so maybe I'll do some shopping?
A friend from college that I haven't seen in about 2 years is coming to visit tomorrow. I'm kind of excited? We didn't have a falling out, but we've grown apart a lot. I've been texting my other friend who she's visiting now in NY and it sounds like things have just been super awkward. Hopefully it'll be nice to see her. Sunday I'm getting an alone morning as an early bday gift, so I'm going to Starbucks and the nail salon!
Tomorrow is my husband's birthday. We had plans for dinner and a kid-free overnight, but Kiera has a 102 degree fever Otherwise plans for Jazzercise and a friend's LLR party
Another g-damned party for one of her classmates. I think we're half way through the kids at this point so I'm just going to start RSVP'ing no. Sorry, summer birthdays.
The party tomorrow has 26 kids attending. 26 YOU GUYS. In general, I don't like other peoples' kids or large crowds like this, so its making my skin crawl just thinking about it.
On the bright side, I'm not working weekends anymore so Sunday is wide open, yaaaaay!! I think we might finishing putting together the furniture in the nursery.

I have zero plans. I might, if I feel ambitious, start imputing info into my report cards. I feel like that won't happen though! Lol I could have had a hot date with two young morman boys. They came to my house the other day and I was just cleaning up dinner and getting ready to bath the kids, so they asked for my number so they could call or text to get a time that works better for us. I'm way to nice to say I'm not interested, Uhhg! They called today already and asked about Saturday and I quickly made up an excuse that I would be away.
Since it is/was supposed to be nice this weekend is planning on bringing the girls outside for a walk and maybe using the new wagon that Santa brought... But J is sick now, so not sure if that will happen.
Today she was supposed to go to my mom's and then we (mom, me, and the girls) were going to pick up my sister at work and go to dinner tonight. But J was coughing so much last night she threw up at 10:30, all over her bed. Today she woke up with a fever 102-ish. So I gave her some Motrin, and kept her home with me... She ended up taking a 2 hour nap this afternoon and woke up with a 104 temp, ugh. She was feeling better tonight after more Motrin, eating something, and a lukewarm bath. Let's hope some good sleep helps her get rid of whatever crud she has.
Sunday apparently we're going to a reveal party for BIL/SIL... They had the blood test for sex of the baby and she's only like 13 or 14 weeks... It seems weird to me to have a party already, but whatever. Hopefully J is better by then.
Edited to fix loads of horrible typos/auto corrects wrong correcting...
Last night I met up with two of my friends after the girls went to sleep. Today, Elise has gym in the morning then I'm taking her grocery shopping, MIL is coming this afternoon and then H and I are going to a retirement party lol. Then tomorrow I'm going to IKEA!! Woot woot!
This is all dependent upon Vera of course. She has a bit of a fever but also has her top canines coming in and a bit of a cold. If she gets worse today I won't go.

I want to get a good deep cleaning done this weekend. DH is having minor surgery on Thursday and I know he's going to be a big baby.
Hopefully today we can get outside. It's supposed be gorgeous out so I'm wanting to go to a park that has the rubber matting. DH is going to go skydiving since the weather is cooperating and he won't be able to go for at least a month post op.
Sunday we are going bowling with the girls' preschool. It's usually a fun outing.

cbear what ikea are you going to? I'm dying to go to the new one in stl! Hope Vera is ok and you have a nice time!
Today I'm going to a wine and paint party with MIL, BIL's gf, CIL, and AIL. I really like H's cousin and aunt so it'll be a great time as long as I don't end up sitting next to MIL. BIL's gf is still relatively new and in that place where she is nice all the time so maybe she'll sit next to her. ?? I thought about taking L with me in a Tula but after being a clingy mess this morning, I'm leaving his cranky butt at home. Maybe we'll go to church tonight. I need to clean at some point but ugh lazy.
cookiesandwine, we are running up to the one in Bolingbrook. I want to go got the StL one too but this one is a little closer for a day trip!
Have fun at your wine and paint party! I love those they are so fun! I'm seriously so bad at crafts and was happy how mine turned out
Ah I forget that you're closer to Chi than I am! STL is a much quicker day trip for us but H and I both have lots of friends from college in the chi suburbs so we end up there more often. My mom and I have plans for a stl IKEA and Homegoods trip when our house is closer to being finished!
Well I wanted to do BRU trade in and get the sit and stand stroller but No! BRU wouldn't accept any of our grade in items. Whatever I'll sell on the Facebook garage sale or donate and go get it at BBB for 20% off. So there.
Otherwise a quiet Saturday. Need to do stuff for school. Tomorrow- church, soccer, maybe some errands.

What won't they accept? I feel like I've brought complete crap to them in the past and they've taken it.

What?? I've never seen them reject things. We even used an old car seat base once.

starfishy last year I bought a $10 bouncer from a second hand store and took it in. I ended up saving a ton on our double so it was worth it.
We stayed in a hotel last night sans kids. Slept like shit, kids slept like shit and we will probably pay for it for a week. Oh well. Groceries and church tomorrow.

Well we were going to have an actual date Saturday and go see Deadpool but I came down with a nasty cold and S ended up puking a few times. And then, "Mama , I barfed. I barfed on my leg. .... Will you snuggle with me?"
