Its been a long week, between H working late and his school work, Ive pretty much been solo ing all week. Much love to the Mamas who do this for real and on a regular basis.
We have a fun Halloween filled weekend planned so Im pumped for that and we are having a playdate with friends and she just had a baby so one week baby snuggles!!!!!
Morning! I'm at work and kids are with my mom. She sometimes takes them to Biggby (coffee place) and gets DS hot chocolate. She sent me this text of a conversation they just had: Mom: "Do you want to go to Biggby today?" DS: "No, not today. What day is today?" Mom: "Friday" DS: "I only get coffee on Tuesdays"
I decided to take a half day off so we could leave earlier for Southern California today. I'm so excited for Disneyland! We used to go at least once a year but haven't been since October 2015. And with my sister being pregnant she can stay with Gianna while we go on rides that they can't go on. Also, our Airbnb looks amazing! Man I love Airbnb.
DS is pretending to be his preschool teacher today. Be still my heart. He was teaching DD how to play play doh. She threw something at him once which usually fight insues but this time he giggled and said "oh no L we have to be nice to Mrs. Teachername!"
That also reminded me that when our friends knocked on our hotel room one night over the weekend he ran to it asking if it was his gymnastics coach.

Good morning. We were up at 4 am for the 2nd night in a row, so that's been fun. I was going to take J to daycare so I could observe some things, but we didn't actually get up this morning until almost 10 am.
We are meeting my mom for lunch and I have to run a couple of packages to the post office. Nothing too exciting.

While changing A's diaper before bed last night I discovered it was full...of pinto beans. He's somehow gotten about 20 of them in there and had been running around playing for about 30 minutes.
He was up for hours last night just babbling and singing, snoozing for 5 minutes, then back at it again. I was able to get his poncho cut out but I haven't done much sewing on it.

I'm sorry, this made me laugh though! Kids do the funniest things.

There is lunch laid out for the past 40 minutes and the presenters are ignoring it! Lunch was scheduled for 12, I'm so hangry, I want to scream out that it's time to eat.
I found these cute canvas treat bags at the dollar store so the kids coloured today. DS decided he wanted everything brown haha. DD still tried eating markers BUT started colouring specific things when I'd point them out to her, like the top ghost is red, hat is blue, pumpkin is green..with her own other squiggles of course. But I thought it was pretty cool because DS, while patient in a lot of other surprising aspects, has never really had a lot of patience for colouring (obviously haha 😂)
And then I have to AW her posing with it after. She stopped what she was doing and sat down with it and said "cheeeeese" when I said I wanted to take pictures of them.

Hi! DS decided to sleep in until almost 8 this morning!!! It was amazing. Granted, I was still up since H went to work, but it was a nice quiet start to the day. And then he threw the worlds biggest temper tantrum in the middle of Meijer. You win some, you lose some I suppose.

It is someone's last day here today, so there was coffee and donuts and cupcakes in the breakroom. I am currently working on a pretty good sugar and caffeine high. I got another phone interview for a job. I haven't heard back from the last one yet, and it has been about a week and a half, I think I will give it until Monday and then call them, but I am not holding out much hope.

Just woke up from a little power nap (fell asleep putting T down for his nap).. Going to slay laundry and tidy the livingroom, and maybe yoga before he wakes up. I need to get a costume together for him. I think I have a pirate outfit, but it might be a 3t...

Oh my gosh tiffbot A has been playing preschool teacher all week too. It's so adorable. She lines up all of her dolls and stuffed animals to be her students.
DH is home! We were planning to take the girls swimming this morning but MIL decided to stop by since she hadn't seen him in "forever." AKA his last days off. Well, neither have we... Haha.
We just booked a flight to Iceland and Paris for March. Without kids. We have 24 hours to cancel... I don't know what to do. It sounds glorious and it was an amazing deal... but 2 weeks without my girls?! WWYD?!

carrots, Yes, my mom and MIL would split the time and I know the girls would love it. I've never been away from B so I guess it's a bit hard to fathom. Not to mention we are struggling with weaning.. haha.
