Hiiiiiii! Long run for me this morning, followed by skate lessons and a trip to the barbershop. We grabbed lunch while we were out and now the boys are down for nap, and I'm right behind them. These long runs in July humidity are killer.

trtlcrzy we use the pop up mesh laundry baskets for Cadence'all stuffed animals. They work great I ended up getting this for them, it is stuffed full already. No more stuffed animals for my children. We thin them out every few months. They rarely notice if we leave their favorites. Sent from my SM-G920P using Tapatalk

We're out running errands. Had a margarita at lunch and now I want a nap. I'm trying to stay on this side of town until once upon a child tells me they've gone though all of my stuff. Then we'll head to the mall. I mistakenly told M they had a train so now we HAVE to go, otherwise I'll never hear the end of it.

Thanks tgrimes and ladystrat. I usually see donation centers say they won't accept stuffed animals (unless they're new).

The boys were great at the aquarium, through lunch and icecream. Their only bad moments were getting to the car. Dh acted like a jerk through all the crowds and heat though and generally a grump.
Waiting on my nephews to get here now. We're watching them while my brother and sil go to a reds game. I need to make potato salad for dinner.

We had a blast at the animal sanctuary. Here's C with a baby goat We also helped out another baby goat. The baby was really stressed and looked overheated so we got a staff member. The mom goat climbed the ramp to the other pen and was separated from her babies. Once we reunited them the baby looked a lot better. Poor thing kept going to other goats and they would push him away. He was only two weeks old. Going to dinner soon and then the hotel pool. A little nervous about dinner because C hasn't napped but hopefully I can bribe him into good behavior with dessert. There's also a wedding here tonight and the neighboring room has been rowdy. Hopefully it dies down. This could be a long night. I hope DD feels better nam2013.

Hi hi. Busy day here. MH stayed at a friend's last night, so it was just me and the kids. Bedtime took until about 10pm, oof. We came to my mom's today and this afternoon j and my mom and I ran some errands. He actually asked for clippers during his haircut and he looks so sharp! We ran into Carter's and I got some ridiculous deals with 40% of sale..helpful since N is moving up a size mid season.
I have a brunch baby shower tomorrow near my dad's house, so everyone will do swimming there while I brunch. Sounds like a perfect setup to me!

I made a protein ice cream for a sweet treat and it's not bad! Definitely will make it again.

Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk I had a shit load of stuff. Some of it M had never worn because she got into her dress phase. A few things still had tags on it. I was shocked though.

C woke up at 1am wanting to play. He was up until 4am. He never does this. I had just fallen asleep at midnight because there was a wedding outside our window that was loud. I only packed two diapers and C pooped in one almost immediately after I put it on last night and at 3am he promised to go back to sleep if I took off the wet one he was wearing. Good news is he went back to sleep from 4-7 and apparently got up and pooped at some point in the toilet. Bad news he still wet his pants including the hotel bed. I just spoke to housekeeping and will leave a generous tipπ
I plan to wake my mom up, go to breakfast and get moving. Once we are home I have plans for a long nap while Dh parents.

More packing today. I packed away all Muslins, sheets, blankets etc. plus dd/ds clothes from the first year, all the feels. Seriously ds' clothes from when he was just born π³, sooooo tiny! We need to figure out what to do today, the sky is falling down now, hopefully it clears soon. Hope your Sunday is great!

L slept til 8:45. What!? She's usually up at 6:30. MH is at work and then we plan on park/splash pad. I get a cheat meal today! Of all the delicious things for some reason I just really want cereal... so I'm thinking wine, cereal and a cookie.
