First Weekend in August

[lilyelayne]

What's up, friends? Anyone with big kids start school next week like they do here?

Got home last night a little after 9 and G wasn't asleep yet after one unsuccessful bedtime attempt by my mom. But he settled down quickly, after telling me alllll about his evening with his grandparents, down to what they had for supper and that it was yummy.

The weather reports have moved the rain from tomorrow to Sunday/Monday so FX that's right. I'd love to get out on the boat tomorrow.

lilyelayne no thank goodness, N's birthday is in December so we get another year 😄😄😄

We celebrated my sister's bday all day. We were going to do zoo nights but it was cold and windy here so we went to see Despicable Me 3. My sensitive N SAYS she didn't like it, but the rest of us did. It was funny with all the 80s references. Tonight we couldn't find a movie we were interested in after the girls went to bed so we picked Twilight from our shelf... I'm not even ashamed 😊

PS: fun fact - three actors from the movie were on The O.C. (which I'm also watching)

Today my H is continuing his new hobby/obsession with trying out his new smoker. We had chicken thighs for lunch and ribs are finishing up. Hoping the Cubs get out of this losing streak 🙏 Church tonight. We have been doing so well lately with that!

Edit: derp'd

aggiebug how are the boys feeling?

Having a lousy Saturday. DH is in a mood. We've been talking all week about going to to lake today but apparently there were errands to run and two hours of work on the boat trailer that slipped his mind so I'm fixing to wake G up from a 30 minute car seat nap to get on the lake at 2pm. I wish he'd aborted after realizing what all we had to do, but he invited SIL & BIL & the nephews then neglected to keep them updated so they've been at the lake for an hour waiting on us, so we'll have 3 cranky toddlers instead of 2. Ughhhhhhhhhh.

[dreemkin]

Sorry lilyelayne. That's frustrating. Hope the rest of the day looks up!

[lilyelayne]

Thanks dreemkin. It ended up being a really awesome lake day. Now we're gonna pick up a pizza and head home. Bedtime should only be ~45-60 minutes late, not too bad.

Thanks for asking. C is better. Still mad at his cough and has antibiotic diapers but otherwise feeling just fine. H is.... Ok today. He got really bad there poor guy like viral sinus infection cause severe headaches and nausea. He is vigilant about taking all his meds and is doing ok but not great. It really turned into more than a man cold.

N filled up a good behavior reward chart so we did a special day with just her. She picked bowling, olive garden, and we went to the store to pick out a little toy. Now my sister took both girls on a sleepover (A really wanted to go too so it was last minute decision for her). I think they'll have a blast. Their Auntie is very good to them.

GoT tonight! Anyone watching? I think I'll go shopping ALONE (!!!) tomorrow...I should go somewhere fun!

aggiebug sorry to hear that. I feel like colds and respiratory infections have been morphing into more severe illness lately... bacteria is going to do us all in one day 😣
