I'm waiting for a reasonable hour to call my grandmother who I haven't talked to in 7 years. Not sure what time that is. I've been awake since 5 with J so I feel like any time right now is too early.
I'm watching CMT(as I do almost everyday because I'm lame and love music videos) and I'm super excited that Dude Perfect is now going to have a TV show!
Morning everyone. E is eating waffles while I watch tv and enjoy my coffee. H was supposed to have off today, but is now working standby ems for a John Kasich event since our primary's are on Tuesday and all the presidential candidates have descended upon Wis. At least it's overtime. E and I need to make a trip to target and I need to find something to wear tonight for a Fire Dept awards banquet that we're going to this evening. It's snowing and gross out today so the idea of a dress with heels just sounds so unappealing and cold at the moment. Have a good Saturday!

Swim lessons today (promise not to pee in the pool this week;)) and then hitting the antique craft fair again with my mom afterwards! I've got my eye on a china cabinet
Morning everyone! It's chilly and rainy here and my ILs are coming soon for their weekly visit. We don't have much planned for the day, but I've got to get DDs clothes rotated up to the next size so I'm hoping to get that done!
beersandweirs haha that is a serious fail and I don't know about the lines. Squinting I think I see the +.

DH was making cookies for a work potluck last night. It's the first time in eight years of knowing him that he's ever baked. So I kept walking over to make sure he was OK, and he was all, leave me alone I'm fine!
So right as he goes to put the cookies in the oven I walk over and ask, how come you didn't put the cocoa powder in? He was making chocolate peanut butter chip cookies. He says I did put it in. I said why is the dough still white?
He put baking powder in! Lol. Two-thirds cup. So we threw it away and bought cookies instead :-)
Morning! DS was up at 11 briefly, but then would not sleep in his crib between the hours of 3:30 and 5:00 wtf. Also, H went to bed with a sore throat, so I got to deal with the whole shit show. He feels better this morning. Grrrr. At least once I got back to bed, we got to sleep till almost 7:30.
We're heading to swim lessons in a little bit, and then going to a friends house later. I already got grocery shopping done, so as long as I stay caffeinated, it should be a good day!
A slept til 6 AM. I had a moment of whose child is this, then kicked DH out of bed to feed him and slept til 7:30.
Breakfast with MIL, SIL, and the niece this morning, and some food planning for the wedding, then meeting up with DH's cousin to discuss cake flavors for the wedding cake she's making us. It's gonna be a busy day!
We have been derailed by a very sad baby. P woke up screaming and with a fever in the middle of the night and spent the rest of the night in our bed for comfort and cuddling. I can't tell if its from teething or something else but we're curled up on the sofa right now resting and napping. I suspect that will be our day all day.
It's a rainy one here! I've already been to the grocery store and liquor store for our get together later his afternoon. I usually try to make an official party cocktail when we have people over, along with beer and wine. Last time, I made Moscow Mules. I'm thinking today's will be Old Fashioneds....sounds good with the cool, rainy weather. My MIL is arriving tomorrow for the week. It's a welcome visit because I really need someone to watch V while I run errands and go to appointments. You have no idea how great it is to have family nearby until you don't.
I stayed up way too late with DH last night watching The Village. I'm a fan of M.Night Shymalan, and I had never seen it. Talk about mind blowing ending!
And why is it supposed to snow tomorrow and Monday?!?! It was just 70 degrees yesterday! Spring in New England is no Bueno!
Hi! We are en route to the farm for second Easter!! Both my siblings will be home and I believe my grandma will also be coming out. It's supposed to be absolutely gorgeous here today and the hottest day so far this year (girls to the east of me have faith!! It's supposed to hit 21 today whaaaat?!) and I am so excited about that because I have been so anxious for a good outside farm day after getting through winter!
txngrl31 I LOVE that movie! I was stunned the first time I watched it, didn't see it coming at ALL.
Day started off great because DH brought me a Starbucks Mocha frap when he came home from grocery shopping this morning. Doggy is finally going to the groomers! YAY! So I'll being doing an extra vacuum of the house.
I painted my nails last night and had to go in to talk to DS for a bit later and he saw them and said 'oh I make my nails greeny too!' (They are kind of a teal). So he held his fingernail against mine and would wait and then pull back and look and say 'my nail green now!' And then hold his next finger over top of mine. Lol! I just love his pretending lately and thought it was so cute that's how he came up with transferring nail colours
Late checking in today. This morning I went to this big Momz 2 Momz rummage sale. I got C a cozy coupe car ($10) a work bench (kinda like the little kitchens) and some other toys. I was mostly going to look at outside toys, they didn't have much of what I was interested in though. After a breakfast with my mom we are finally back home and C is down for his morning nap. I actually had to wake him so we could go this morning. No big plans this afternoon. It's super windy and snowing out today so it looks like C and I will be spending the day inside.

Getting together tax papers today that I have procrastinated on for too long....I hope we get a break this year since we've added a dependent
Then, shopping for a baby shower gift since the shower is tomorrow and I've put that off too. I don't feel like driving 45 minutes to Babies R Us, so I think I'm just going to get them an 'essentials' grab bag with Tylenol, diapers, gas drops, etc and I did order a pair of Zutano booties. Also, I'm bringing Aiden with me tomorrow so I hope I don't step on any toes but H is working so I don't have an option.
DH is changing out the old, ugly, dated, too big for the space pedestal sink in the upstairs bath and putting in the new, sleek, smaller, more modern one I impulsively bought yesterday. Wheeeee!!

I hate illinois weather. It was super windy and snowing horizontally 10 minutes ago. Looking 9 upside boe, and it still looks super windy, but now the sun is out. It's going to be in the mid 80s in NV pretty much the whole time we are there.

Since my last post...it has started raining, which turned to hail, which turned to snow, then got sunny again, and now it's snowing horizontally again.
Wtaf.
And J was just about asleep, so my neighbor thought it was a great time to run on her treadmill. Of course.

Update- I bought the china cabinet, and some paint to finish it! The ladies that own the space are so sweet and helpful. They told me all the steps on how to complete like I want and said to send them pics if I have questions/to show off the finished project! I got this thing for a steal!!
And it's soon to be a teal color with a burlap background inside...
