So confused by ‘Wednesday’ 😂😂😂
We are up and at ‘em. DH just finished the yard and is now working on cleaning gutters in a couple spots in preparation for potential storm debris (we *should* get missed by Isaias or whatever this thing is called but our house is surrounded by huge oaks so even a little wind will bring down leaves).
Next door neighbors are having a pool party for their 2nd grader and one of those giant inflatable slides just got dropped off. So I’m running to Target for a present.

Morning.
Only M2 and I are up. I need to hit up a few stores in a bit.
The kitchen is done. The backsplash isn’t exactly the color I wanted, but it will do. It’s still leaning more gray than tan. I guess I should have brought it home to see how it looked in my lighting before ordering it. The color was ecru and it looked more tan at the store. It’s still worlds better than it was and I’m satisfied. I need to look for some pieces to add some color to it. Pics coming.

Morning!
MH is all about tackling home tasks right now so I’ve taken advantage and we’ve been crossing little things off the list all morning.
We had a really good financial discussion last night about home stuff, mortgage renewal, vehicles, the summer property, buying an rv etc and I think we’re ready to just get going on this reno. Start booking contractors and do it piece by piece, so that’s exciting.
We’re going to set up the large bouncy pool again today since it’s gorgeous out!

Hey. DH and the girls let me “sleep in” with the baby. Which really means I stayed in my room with V until 9. I ran and picked up a target order by myself and while I was out I decided to stop at a couple other stores to look around. It was nice. DH and the big girls are going to a friend’s diaper keg this evening otherwise just hanging at home for the rest of the day.

Also morning. Dh came home really late last night and woke me just as I fell asleep, which resulted in me not being able to fall back a sleep until 2 in the morning 🤦🏼♀️. We ordered paint for the nursery and the color turned out way to dark, especially for a nursery. I was looking for a Scandinavian blue with a hint of grey, and it turned the other way around... so I need to find another paint color. I made a poke bowl tonight that turned out really good. It’s a nice summer meal .

Birthday party was fun; we feel so lucky to have the neighbors we do. Hopefully after all the swimming and sliding in 100 degree temps the kids will be tired out tonight!
We just got back from ordering a new rug for the dining room, and I think we're going to get BBQ take-out tonight and watch a movie.

We are headed back from the Cape now after picking C up. It was so hot today so we spent a few hours in the pool before coming home and then ended up staying for an early pizza dinner. C was on the verge of meltdown so we placed out pretty quickly. He’s definitely overtired but he had a great time and my Mil invited all the kids back for next summer. 😁 Maybe next year we can travel solo while he is there.

If any of your girls like Justice, they are going out of business. 40% off online or 60% off in stores. I just did evies BTS shopping. Which means she won't go back in person...

I ended up doing two desks. The first one wasn’t sturdy enough so we got another one. Now I just need to clean the space behind where I sit so it looks nice for conference calls. So that will be done for tomorrow.
I finished my homework for this week. Also I know way too much about the challenger space shuttle then I ever thought I would.
E just scolded me through the monitor doe telling her to get back in bed.
I need to make banana muffins for breakfast for the week tomorrow. I’ll have L help me.
Also Umbrella Academy season 2 is out and it is good. The soundtrack is even better then last season!

Morning. Of to the dunes again in a bit. Today is the last day that it’s nice as opposed to smothering in the coming two weeks, I’m seriously dreading every minute of it.
People are insane with sticking to the ‘virus rules’, literally stuffing themselves in to buses to the beach, I can’t go in to the city because of the amount of tourist there, restaurants and cafes are full and party’s are being thrown... A friend of a friend who works at the Dutch cdc and had tested a bride and a groom just before their wedding, they tested positive and decided to just throw the 70 people wedding anyway... yesterday’s new cases where the same as the total amount cases last week. I’m scared and nervous for what’s coming.

Morning!
Just chores/housework on our agenda today. I probably should check the weather; last I saw the storm was downgraded and is going to skirt us and head towards VA. (Sorry, VA!)
Currently I’m playing ‘paper Barbies’ with C; this spring when we were cooped up she’d have me print Barbie coloring pages for her to color and cut out. She now has a rather creepy collection of 70ish “paper Barbies” that she keeps in a shoebox. If that isn’t the makings of a horror movie, I don’t know what is.

Morning. We are on our way home from ILs. We spent the night there and left N and H with them until Thursday (!!!) SIL announced she is pregnant, due in February. I’ll be missing baby snuggles by then, so it’ll be great timing . My side of the family is done with babies and Dh just has the one sister so it’s on her for more nieces/nephews. We have a few errands to run when we get back then going to our friends for dinner. It’s a beautiful day and actually starting to feel a bit like fall, which is welcome.
