DH and I are going to my moms tonight for a birthday dinner (his and my 3rd oldest niece)
Tomorrow I have another birthday party to attend (my second oldest niece)
Eta: Sunday is a family dinner at my aunts house. - end of oct/November is a crazy busy birthday time in my family! My older brother is a Halloween baby. Then my niece J is Nov 9, DH and his sister are Nov 11 (not twins), another niece Nov 16, and another niece Nov 21. Oh and my little brothers girlfriend, hers is the 8th if Nov.
billyhorrible, holy shit, did you say 7 mile run? I was proud of myself for drinking a fruit smoothie for breakfast. Jeez, get it girl!
I think I mentioned this in randoms, but we've got a date night tonight! My sister is babysitting and we're going to a comedy play. Im even going to straighten my hair and everything!
Tomorrow is my friends wedding reception from 3-6. She had a destination wedding that I couldn't attend so I'm excited to go and see her and celebrate her marriage. Esp since I'm the one that got them together after her terrible breakup from a 4 year relationship. She included on our invite to bring T. I think we will since it's an afternoon reception. I have no idea what to wear though...no dresses fit anymore!
Football, football, cleaning, laundry, football. Only twist being that Saturday night while DH is at work I have people coming over to watch the Baylor-Oklahoma game with me. So food, beer, football.
Next weekend I'll have more interesting things to say.
We're going to the babies r us baby's first holiday event so I can buy a baby gate (the octagon one) and alphabet floor blocks and make LO an "ugly Christmas onesie". I was invited to a game night from my mom's group, but I'm feeling anxious about going to someone's house so I'm not sure I'll go.

Currently- getting my hair done dentist appt after:( maybe dinner out with H later?
Tomorrow- Christmas Mini Sessions all day
Sunday- Craft fair with MIL, then home to get prepped for the coming week. I also bullshitted my way out of going to a 1yo birthday party on DH's side. H works Sundays and they smoke in that house so I was NOT looking forward to it at all. Sorry not sorry that we're not going!

I wanted to go to this!! But the next 2 weekends they're having the event we're busy:( Maybe i'll see if H can take her. He's probably just going to look at me like I'm crazy....
Tonight- Dinner out for one of my best friends birthdays Tomorrow- Taking DD to the pool to get her used to the indoor pool before signing her up for swim lessons. and doing a date night with the hubss, His mom offered to baby sit so that we could go out (she is paying for dinner as her anniversary gift to us!)

You are so in touch with all of the babies R us events! Is that on Saturday or Sunday? I went on the website after you talked about the Halloween one, and couldn't find any information about it, but maybe I'll pop by this weekend just in case.
Saturday! Starts at 11. You get a free onesie to decorate!
I know dmoney mentioned swim classes, are a lot of you doing things like that? I looked into swim and stroller fit, mostly to meet moms in my area but both clashed with my work schedule.
I have a hair appointment later this afternoon! First cut since April lol!
Sometime this weekend I plan on taking pics of the kids and ordering Christmas cards. This is one of those creative things I get super excited to do on my own and I love doing so I'm quite excited

A lot of places wont do it until the baby was 6 months old. But where we are going specifically has swim lessons Sunday Mornings which is nice so that parents can do it. The first 2 classes are mommy and me type classes.
I should find some sort of craft or something to do with my niece on Sunday so she can be semi-occupied. Any suggestions from you guys on what a 4 year old would like to do?
So.Many.Ideas!
LBB loves shrinky dinks, beads, clay/playdough, stickers, and stamps.
Make stained glass with contact paper and tissue paper.
If you have paper plates you can make turkeys, sheep (with cotton balls), wreathes, suns...
Since you probably have baby wipes, you can make "tie-dye" with them, rubberbands, and markers.

Tomorrow I'm going to a holiday thing at a country club with my foster mom and sister. SO is taking Jules to the BRU event. I'd much rather go to that but can't. Then Sunday going to have family dinner.
I need to find a place near me that does baby swim lessons. I think C would love them since he loves bath time. I took him swimming when we were at the hotel back in Sept but he didn't care for it too much (I think the water was too cold for him)
We have a wedding in Houston tomorrow. My parents offered to keep T, but the bride and groom and the groom's mom all want to see her. It wouldn't be too bad if the wedding was close to my parents' house, but it's over an hour away on the opposite side of town. So, we either take her and deal with a fussy baby at the reception and leave early, or we leave her at home with my parents and I try to find somewhere to pump while we are there. Decisions, decisions.
Theme of weekend plans is snuggling a sick baby...and possibly a sick husband. Ugh, man cold.
Tomorrow DH has a flag football game in the morning. It's going to be too cold for O and I to go. Oh, darn . I get to go grocery shopping alone at some point.
Sunday is family dinner with my aunts, uncle, and cousins that haven't met O yet. Hopefully he feels better by then.
Today has been the greatest day of my life! I mean a close second to meeting Maddie of course. (;
SO bought me a happy planner!
& he preordered the new world of Warcraft expansion for me! I get a lvl 100 boost and early access to the demon hunter! Most of you probably have no idea wtf that all means, but trust me ladies it's exciting.

Having Thanksgiving dinner with my parents, sibs, spouses, and all 8 kids tomorrow. Currently making cheesecake. doing this early because my little brother is in town til Tuesday (stationed in Oahu). Got a 2 mile run in today. So out of shape, but getting better!
Went out for Mexican last night. It was delicious!
Today: cleaning, football, grocery shopping and the UFC fight later. I'm trying to decide what to make for DH and his friends for dinner. I'm thinking wings or chili. I'm also thinking that I am going to make homemade soft pretzels because I haven't made them since last NYE and they are sooooo good.
Sunday: maybe going out to brunch? More football and family time. Nothing really exciting, but sometimes that is the best!

DH wants to watch the UFC fight tonight, but knows if he goes to a bar to watch it he will have to be by himself. I think his plan is to stay in and watch it at home. If I can stay up I plan to watch some with him. I love Rhoda rousey!!
dmoney, yeah we always stay home to watch it. I get to Pinterest/hang out in my pjs and DHgets beer and food. It's a win for everyone involved. I'm not super into UFC, especially when it gets bloody, but I'll watch some of it
stcyct hopefully you guys can get back to playing soon! But you have a little time since legion doesn't release until September. What realm were you guys on? It's a family thing for us too. I play with my mom, dad, sister, and SO. Lol we're all in a guild together.
