Another Manic Monday gone by

Yesterday was crazy. Almost caught up on doing the laundry, prepped for dinner, tried on christening stuff, went out and got two more gifts bought. Now I only have my parents and Tyler'smom and step dad to buy for. Goal is to be done , and everything wrapped by Dec 1! 

When we tried on Keira's christening gown, I wanted to try her onesie I bought her for under her dress. It says "my baptism day". I bought 3-6 months. She is just over 3 months. And in the 95th percentile for height....well....she's too long for it. Sighhhh lol



For dinner, I made a Martha Stuart recipe. I bought a little chicken and roasted it with a white wine and herb sauce. 

I also roasted some carrots, and made these scalloped potatoes :

Yum. 

Keira and I picked up Garett together, and Tyler was home quickly behind us. 

We had a fun night eating and playing, making forts and playing mini stick hockey in the basement. 

Garett was in bed by 7:30, Keira by 8:45, and I was soon after around 9:30 lol 

This morning, Keira was up early with me around 6:30, and has been napping lots today. I managed to get most of the clean laundry finally put away, laid Garett's clothes out for the rest of the week , changed his bed sheets, washed bottles, sterilized them, boiled more water, ate some lunch and am currently waiting for my girl to wake up :) 

Happy Tuesday!!!

Life Lately

-Hosting Bearbrook Ladies night two weekends ago was wonderful! I put out a full charcuterie spread, made a mint/cranberry/grapefruit drink to share, and all of us received a tarot card reading, palm read and a facial read. Pretty much the reoccurring consensus between all three reads (it was two different people doing it) was that my heart and mind live in a state of conflict, but that it works for me to live in a state of balance. I deal mostly with logic and facts, and less with emotions; they think I would be good as an analyst (weird, since this is pretty well my role at work), and with numbers (which I also do all day at work lol). I'm stubborn and loyal and do not have a mean streak. That I am the same person at home as I am in social settings...blah blah blah. It was interesting! -Last weekend, we went out to Tyler's Disco Inferno show to celebrate our friend Jami and Donna's birthdays. We danced away (one of Keira's ECE's from daycare came out too!) and i...

-Garett went on his first friend play date ever , and he had so much fun. It was his two best friends that left daycare to start school last year. -happy that while Garett was at his play date, Tyler was home with Keira and I went out for a bit alone, then came home and we finished The Belko Experiment movie before I went to get him. (He was there for two hours) -sad that this week, Garett only has four days left at daycare :( Friday is Keira's first day, while I keep g home with me. Can't believe it's already almost school time!! -as a "goodbye" gift from g, we bought his daycare provider a necklace from peoples that is a heart with some Garnet stones in it (Garett's birthstone), to remember him by, and I ordered an Aukey essential oils diffuser , a doTERRA starter kit and an essential oils mixing guide recipe book thing. Hopefully she likes it. -Keira adapted SO well to putting herself down for her nap. She's down to one a day, and I just give...

Friday fun!

Thank God it's Friday, and that this week is O-V-E-R!!! -It was a stressful week at home. Looking forward to a fun weekend! -I am being audited for child care expenses in 2018--I'm not the only one that thinks we pay too much money in child care! LOL...I submitted my receipts online (they are catching up with the times and it's great!) and turns out I actually underclaimed by a few hundred dollars haha. -Tonight is calm, just hanging at home with the kids. -Saturday I have an eyelash appointment at 2:00, and then we have a sitter coming at 6:00 so we can go to a Wine & Cheese night up the road at our friends house. -Sunday is a day of rest until the evening when Shan comes over and we head into town to go to the Trailer Park Boys Christmas at the NAC (I bought Tyler and I tickets as an early Christmas gift). We are sitting pretty close, so I hope we don't get any of their nasty sweat on us lol -Monday I am off since the TPB thing only starts at 8PM, I didn...
