Weekend recap

This weekend flew by, for real. I feel like we had no time together, but spent the whole weekend as a family. That's just how life is, I guess! 

Friday Keira and I tried to run out and do some errands before Remembrance Day things began, but realized all the places we needed to go only opened at 12:30, so we went home!
Here is what she wore :
Headband:Carters
Boots:Joe Fresh

On the way in the door, we saw the Snowbirds flying overhead, and once we got settled, I felt the house start shaking. Took me a second to find my phone and almost missed them, but three Blackhawks were flying right over our house also. Pretty spectacular and powerful!
When the boys got home, we played and made some homemade turkey burgers for dinner. G thinks they're hamburgers and he ate an entire one and some fruit parfait for dessert. #momwin

Saturday we were up bright and early. Keira had a rough night (well, she was half asleep, so I assume she was well rested, but her moving and stuff in her bassinet all night =me only having about 1 Hr 40 min broken sleep all night). She was in good spirits at least. The boys went out to the Star Wars store for a few hours (gs fav place to play these days), and while Keira napped, I went through all of gs old clothes and shoes that I haven't already gotten rid of. Like , it's amazing how much he had left. I realized , when it comes to both of my kids I'm addicted to buying clothes and shoes. Oops. Here's what it looks like after it was all sorted by size :

I'm happy that chore is done. And now I have like 4 empty rubbermaids to use for other stuff! Lol

Keira got dressed and we did endless laundry while we all played in the basement. Tyler ran out and grabbed Lebanese food for dinner from our fav place and we all watched some cartoons while we ate. 

Here's what Keira wore on Saturday: 


Shoes are Joe fresh, but no longer on the site. Headband was from toys r us :)

We were all in bed early after the night previous. 

Sunday we all slept in until almost 8. Keira had a touch and go night again, but not nearly as bad. 3 month sleep regression--she must be growing :)

We had some breakfast , and around 9:30 , g and Ty headed out to help one of his military friends move a hot tub. 6 other guys showed up to help (they're heavy I guess) , and they stayed to visit /play with the other kids for a while. 

When they came home , my parents stopped by for a visit :) we ordered some Swiss chalet and played with the kids. It was a nice visit. We hadn't seen them in about a month !

Once they left, we relaxed a bit. G did his homework pages , Keira played on her mat happily , and daddy took a short snooze beside her. I can't remember the last time my house was so quiet 

We didn't really do dinner , but had a snack plate (cheese, crackers , olives, pickles, some veggies and dip, pepperettes) and the boys went to shoppers around 7pm for snacks. G and I went to do his bed routine at 7:30, then ty and I read in bed and caught up on social media for a while before we all went to bed around 9:30. 

Happy to report, Keira is back on schedule and had a great night. And this morning she gave me her first real giggles (not just little squeals of contentment ), and I caught it on video! Woot. 

Hope everyone else had a wonderful relaxing weekend filled with family as well :)

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...
