Last day of camp for DS! They're having an art show like they did last time but an additional thing is some kind of performance afterwards. DS said it's a puppet show & dance. Lol I wonder how that's gonna go. Now I know for this time to bring my real camera for a video since my damn phone can be unreliable based on what happened at the end of STEM camp when he was doing his little speech. I wish DH could come home a little early but he's already leaving early next week for open doors the day before school starts & going in late for the 1st day of school so I'll just record everything. I'm excited to see everything he's done! The last show was pretty amazing. The things they make are pretty awesome.

I'm getting my house together since inservice is finished. I'll work in the classroom a little this morning, but then my focus is the house! It's a disaster after making and canning 26 jars of salsa and 10 jars of pasta sauce over the last week after inservice. I'm exhausted!
I do have a pedicure scheduled this afternoon and then DS and I will run some errands. I'm going to take him for ice cream as a special treat. It's gorgeous here so dinner on the patio will be happening tonight!

DS' birthday is in less than two weeks. Like I mentioned before, it's going to be just the 3 of us for his actual birthday since it's on a Wednesday so we'll probably do what we did last year & do Chuckecheese after school. Party with friends the week after since that weekend is Labor Day. Anyway he's not deadset on a theme & it's driving me bonkers. He's so laid back. He'll say yes to anything which is good but then he'll change his mind if you mention anything else or get another idea the next day. I kind of need to start planning, my dude! It was so much easier when he would lock on what he liked & wouldn't change his mind for anything. Lol So far the selection has gone from Ghostbusters, Goosebumps, Mickey & the roadster racers, ducktales, the Descendants, Mario, to now emojis since I suggested that to him yesterday when I was browsing the store & he's really excited to see the movie. I'm about to just pick out some red decor (his favorite color) & call it a day. LOL

NamasteBirches a Goosebumps theme would be so awesome! I loved those books when I was younger.

We are going to a birthday party tonight. Everyone that is going to be there is going on vacation with us next week. I think the plan is to get us all sitting down together so we can figure out who's bringing what. 7 Days till we leave! So excited! DD is too. She cannot stop talking about it.

bellatrix, yay for your H! I'm exhausted. Fridays are my days off with DS and we got way more accomplished than should be possible with a two year old. But I rewarded myself with wine and ice cream and plan on passing out pretty soon. And now I have the satisfaction of not having to do very much at all the rest of my vacation!

We are home from the party way later than I wanted to be. DD is a mess b/c she stayed up too late. It is very difficult to get DH to leave a party. I basically need to say we are leaving and start walking out the door. You'd think I would be better at it by now. It took an hour from the time I said I wanted to leave before we actually left.
I really need to start taking a stand about DD not staying up much past bedtime. It always ends bad. And tomorrow DH is working so I get to deal with the grumpy girl she is going to be in the morning b/c she won't sleep in.
Blah! Rant over.

I only know her from family boot camp that I watched last season for Farrah from teen mom & her storyline was interesting with her mom so I started watching her show when it premiered because I had to know what happened after bootcamp Lol She's just a reality person.

Her claim to fame is being Hugh Hefner's ex girlfriend. She was on a reality show with two others called Girls Next Door. Not that I watched every episode or anything. oh yea, I forgot that part She is her own person, OKAY?! lololol

Watching the new sesame Street and the word of the day is sibling. They're talking all about families and how you might only have one sibling or a lot, but no mention of not having any siblings. 😞
ETA with 3 minutes left they finally snuck in there that some kids don't have any siblings.

We've had a busy day. We decided to take DS to party city to have him choose party stuff. He stuck with emojis. Allelu! It's so funny though. The 'poop' one he sees as chocolate. We'll probably have to do a second trip there for favors & such once we get his class list & figure out how many people are actually coming. We still need to decide where the heck we're having it. We're slacking for sure. Anyway, after that we went to a kid's amusement park. We had bought a book of tickets last year that we didn't even finish because the place isn't that big so we finished those up & he got some free tickets for his birthday so that was nice. He had a great time. He mostly went on their roller coaster. I can't believe he's old enough to enjoy that kind of stuff & he went alone every single time & had his hands up the whole time, it was adorable. Last year he preferred having DH with him. After that we went out for lunch & had shakes afterwards. I called this his end of summer/early birthday treat. He might be a little spoiled. Lol oh well

We went to the farmers market this morning. So many delicious veggies came home with us.
I've spent the rest of the day organizing and cleaning. House is super sparkly and we're heading to my brothers for their annual summer party. I feel accomplished and ready for a yummy summer drink!

DD doesn't let me nap... That sounds awful. My DD still takes naps so I sneak one in when she's out. DD is 5 & hasn't napped at home in years. 😒. Enjoy it while you can. 😜

I am both looking forward to and dreading the end of naps. On one hand, I feel like it will be amazing to not have to plan our days so we're home in the early afternoon for DS to nap (or deal with the consequence of a tired toddler if we're not), bit on the other, I do love being able to get a nap in sometimes during his nap.

We had a really fun day, DS decided today was the day he was going to learn to actually catch a ball! I took him to gymnastics this morning, and they always do ball time at the end, and normally I try to play catch with him but he gets so distracted. Today, he was so focused and totally did it! Repeatedly! It's so fun to see him learn new things, and to see how proud he is of himself when he learns them!

I love not being a prisoner to nap times anymore.
