Good morning! I'm up and ready and waiting for A to wake up... I think that I'm more excited about her birthday than she is. We have a big party today, and then tomorrow will be sugar coma recovery and cleanup.
C is spending part of the day with grandma and grandpa while I attend a canning class at my cousins house. I'm looking forward to a few hours of adult time. No plans for tomorrow. I need to spend some time organizing Cs toys and his room. That will probably happen tonight/tomorrow. Hope everyone has a great weekend!
You never know carrots, we took the kids to their first pro game this year and both of them totally surprised me, we never even had to take them for a walk around during the game or anything! Good luck!
Fairly quiet weekend here. Mostly some cleaning up and organizing and probably just sticking around home, which is nice, it's good to have these weekends too. One of H's staff members gave him two big zucchinis trying to clear her garden out so I may have to do some baking but I think we'll be freezing a lot of it haha. Also have some football today too!
Zero plans today. The heat index is over 100 so I will not be mowing the grass. Bleh. Tomorrow is church, grass mowing, and going to BIL & SIL's to watch football but not our team. Our game is Monday night.
It's a busy weekend over here. Which is typical. I just got back from a 7 mile run, need to shower and change so I can go to the bank before BH's swim lesson.
This afternoon DH and I have the memorial service, and I'm expecting to be a mess after.
Tomorrow we have a meeting with our financial planner. Bleh. I'm almost looking forward to Monday.

Headed to a first birthday party today- his birthday is the same day as both of his parents....and his baby brother was born 4 hours "too late" to share the day with them too. Can't wait for C to get to play with someone her age and to steal newborn snuggles from the new little guy!
We are just relaxing watching the Pitt PSU game. Jules has been a new baby from all her sleep lately! Although last night I may have cried for about an hour realizing that she is my only companion and j was super lonely not having her cuddles in bed. *need to make friends* Hope everyone is having a wonderful day!!
We are in Paris right now taking a break after a LONG day! My feet are throbbing. We're going to head out in a little bit to get some dinner and French wine!!

I went with my mom and sister to a special screening of Storks this morning. 3d glasses give me a headache though. Just got J down for a nap. I've gotta head in to work for a few hours, then having an Usborne party tonight.

We took kids out to breakfast and they didn't allow dogs on the porch so I had to run the pup back to the office. Should have stuck with our usual Saturday morning dog beach outing. Been running errands to pick up extra tile and paint for the guys we had to bring in from Indy to help us finish the house. Still a long way off, pretty sure the dog friendly pool will be ready before the house, but that's a relief for my first baby after her first coastal summer. Here is a view of what's done on the house so far from the back yard. Taking Texas Ranger home to nap and hitting the pool with Walker. Date night tonight and excited for football Sunday!

We went to the aquarium this morning; got there at opening and there was almost no one there. Score! His favorite parts were the lights on the dark walkways and the stairs leading to the top of the big tank. He also got to ride a carousel. We walked around Boston for awhile, then H said he thought it was going to rain, so we left. As soon as we came out of the parking garage, there was a downpour. Nice call, H.

The dad is my friend from HS- I told him if the newest little guy was born on their birthday he needed to play the lottery!! When I texted him to say happy birthday he said they were in the hospital and the new baby should be born that day...guess he wanted his own day because he stayed in a few extra hours;)
heartofglass I was down there today too! I didn't pick anything up. But we did walk down to get some macaroons from a little shop that's only open on Saturday. So now M is napping and I'm snacking.
Eta I saw a mom trying boots on her little boy and thought of you.
It was probably me if you were inside the store there wasn't enough room outside.
H and I had an amazing date night last night where we got Mexican food and rolled ice cream and went into the city, something we never do anymore! Today I went to the gym, followed the Pitt-PSU game (go Pitt!) and bought things for dinner, but otherwise we've been lazy. It's hot. Here's a picture of the ice cream.
It's been a lazy Saturday here and I love it!! Errands with V this morning and then after lunch, we both took a 2 hour nap. It was glorious. Movie night on the couch tonight and football tomorrow!!

Crazy! If you were putting purple boots on him and have a southern accent it was probably you. I was walking around wearing M because I can't handle her being free and crowded places alone.

I am so sore, but we got coat #1 of paint done today. We're painting basically the entire first floor, which seemed a lot more manageable when we were making plans rather than actually painting. But the house looks amazing so far, and we have everything lined up to move next Friday - only six more days!

Btw A had his 15 month appointment today and it sucked ass. I knew he had to get a couple of shots, but I wasn't aware they had to get so much blood for the iron check. I thought they would just prick his finger and get a drop, the same as checking glucose levels. Poor thing screamed and screamed and then bled all over the place. They just called with the results and it looks like we'll be on iron drops for he next few months, yay.
The highlight of the appointment was when he found Mickey Mouse on his replacement diaper. He keeps pointing at him and smiling.

@akwild we didn't do a blood draw at the 12 month appointment, we missed it somehow. The doctor today said we would do another blood draw at his 18 month appointment to check his iron levels since they were low.
I forgot about the upcoming blood draw. O's iron levels were borderline at his 12m appointment so I'll make sure to give him a full of iron breakfast that morning. Boo to shots and blood draws.
We did a blood draw at 9 months (10 months cause I forgot). I went to the pediatric place and it was so easy. She didn't even flinch! I have no idea what our 15 month appointment will entail since we got our MMR at 12 months.
