Well, A and I are eating way too many veggie straws while R is in school. We might make cookies soon. It's wild and crazy over here

We are at swimming lessons right now. I'm not sure of our plans for the rest of the day. Our house needs some cleaning so I guess I'm going to have to work on that.
Tomorrow we are meeting up with some friends.

To answer the other question, dog vet appointment today, very awkward pizza night tonight, then installing garage door insulation this weekend. We're conscripting my parents to help with that. And then cooking them dinner.

I think we will take DS to the wading pool tomorrow morning. This weekend kind of snuck up on me, so we don't have any real plans. I need to clean outgrown clothes out of DS's closet and go shopping for some 3T fall clothes.

Work is both slow and fast today. I'm the only one here of my 3 person department and a bunch of other people on my floor are out so it feels empty.

Aww, Happy Birthday A + E!
I have the whole weekend off! This hasn't happened in a while. I have some cleaning to do this afternoon while B naps and I'm going to register him for fall swimming lessons and gymnastics. Tomorrow we'll probably go to the farmer's market and library. Wild weekend.

Today I'm getting my hair done and doing some alone shopping. Tomorrow we're going to Ikea and Duluth Trading. Sunday we'll work around the house/yard.

I want to start looking at minivans this weekend. I'm going to try to sneak away on Saturday to the Toyota dealership by myself and look at the different models and features.
I want to get out to Ikea as well, but I don't know if that's going to happen on Saturday or not. Maybe I'll see if we can get up and get there as it opens to try to stay away from the crazy. I really wish they had an order and pick-up option.

I can't believe E and A are 1! Crazy.
We're going to the farmers market in the morning and hopefully meetings friends in the afternoon. M doesn't travel well, so I'm hoping she can stay home with A in the afternoon, if he leaves work early.

E has a skate lesson tomorrow at 11, and then at 5 there's an informal third-grade picnic at the local park, which I'm excited about. I love the parents in E's grade, this picnic is more of an excuse for the parents to have a playdate than the kids! There will be wine.
Sunday we may go to a bike event over at the middle school, they're doing free safety checks of kids' bikes and there will be two professional cyclists, a man and a woman, speaking to kids about the sport.

We have our ultrasound appointment tomorrow and I'm so excited! I am fairly concerned this baby won't cooperate though. Every single time my midwife tries to listen to the heartbeat the baby runs away like crazy. Here's hoping he/she will spread his/her legs haha

We've decided on the DC Zoo tomorrow since the weather is supposed to be nice. Then my parents are coming by sometime Sunday to hang out. Hoping for a stress-free weekend!

Our anniversary was last weekend but we planned an overnight trip to the mountains tomorrow to celebrate! It's been 6 years. We're leaving early and going on a long hike, then we'll go out for dinner and then have a walk and brunch Sunday morning. Sunday is my dad's birthday so we'll spend the afternoon/evening at my parents' place. My mom is making steak and crab so I'm excited.
This is the first time we're leaving L overnight since he was 10 weeks and my mom seems a bit nervous about it.

We went to a kids amusement park today which was lots of fun and tomorrow we're meeting up with friends, which we're really looking forward to.
Tonight has been pure hell though. Since we're on vacation we don't really care when the kids go to sleep. But M has been playing this insane game of, "I'm tired and want to go to bed but I refuse to stay in bed and will just slow motion piss you off in every way that I can imagine." And then finally she woke up C. And wake ups are taking forever because we don't have her magical memory foam mattress and keep ending up with at least 2 failed transfers. I'm so tired and angry.

Well, my amazing day yesterday was dampened by a killer headache that started on the way to my hair appt and didn't go away until I went to bed last night. And a ton of construction and accidents majorly increased my driving time. And the stores I went to for some reason had half-empty shelves so I couldn't get all of my list checked off.
But, I chopped my hair and colored it (for the first time since before I had J) and I love it SO SO SO MUCH. It's slightly asymmetrical, shorter in the back, and I feel like a whole new woman!

I'm on my second glass of Matua Pinot Noir and I'm beyond warm and fuzzy. This is my favorite pinot, highly recommend. So smooth. So delicious. Yum.

A while back DH wrecked his work truck, so they had him take all of the tools and parts off of one of their spare trucks, put them in their warehouse, and then put all of the stuff from his truck onto the spare truck to use. This week they finally got a new truck for him, so we've spent the weekend installing the accessories he needs and switching his stuff over to the new truck. Then we're putting the spare truck's stuff back into it, because a new guy starts this week who will be driving it. (Note to whoever, take pictures of where stuff goes before you move all that crap and put it in a giant pile!)
We also fit in a date night of doubles disc golf which was really fun, and taking our dog to the vet to be stiched up after a coyote attack, which was obviously not fun!
