Lately.:point form
life since returning from our trip has been chaotic, to say the least. But it's starting to calm now, thank goodness.
-immediately after we returned, it was Tyler's homeshow thurs-Sunday. Which meant picking g up on thurs and Friday, and having both kids alone all weekend until bedtimes. Now with the season kicking up next week, he's been a crazy person doing estimates all day and night and that means dinnertimes alone some nights, which isn't my fav thing ever, but we got through it!:)
-all the laundry is all caught up. It was so nice of the ladies staying with the kids to do it all so that all we had to do wen we got home was our trip clothes!! God bless them.
-picked up a ton of groceries twice lol
-Garett had an eye appointment on Tuesday last week, and is getting new lenses , but not frames apparently. so the new lenses will be ready Next week !
-with the eye appointment, the boys were home by 2, so we did some painting for Easter with potato stamps , and did four science experiments : volcano, blowing up balloons using chemical reactions, made a lava lamp and made elephant toothpaste. G had fun, and Keira loves to watch us do them!
-we haven't been eating great since we came back (hazards of all inclusives--it makes you never want to cook again ). We ordered Chinese one night, had fast food another and have been doing a lot of easy meals. Back on track soon; I feel like garbage when we eat like garbage.
-last week I also went in for service on my car. I'm only at 2700 km (it had 400 when I got it), and I've had it for 6 months--this includes like three or four Cornwall trips lol. So I just had an oil change because of the time that has passed, and an inspection. I have to go early next week to retorque my tires and I'm good for a while longer.
-this weekend past weekend was jam packed with plans. None of which happened/went to. Saturday night we were supposed to go bowling for our friends birthday since they were in Myrtle Beach for his actual birthday. But their sitter cancelled last minute, so bowling was cancelled. We had a few people over instead , and were in bed by midnight or so. Sunday we were supposed to go to brunch for one of our other friends 30th birthday, but Keira had other plans and slept three hours during her morning nap. so we didn't wake her, and we missed it lol oh well! I love quiet weekends too :)
-the house is clean, but with winter having reappeared for a few weeks, I feel like my spring cleaning was wasted. I want to hire a service to come in once and redo it for me. But then I feel we will get back into having them come all the time lol. And while I LOVED having maid service, I found it was causing me more work the night before , because I would have to tidy everything or they wouldn't clean around it.
-i purchased the beach body containers and workouts. I also ordered some weights and resistance bands and kettle bells online and wrote up my meal plans for a month. Should lose about 10lb during the 21 day fix , and I also bought a measuring tape. Afterwards, I will continue with my meal plans and join the gym up the road. I have about 60lbs I want to lose now that we are done having babies. Nothing will hold me back now!
- it's been raining lots, so almost all of the snow is gone AND it will be 22 next week. Bring on spring/summer!!
-I'm about halfway through season 3 of "how to get away with murder". I am obsessed
-Keira is on mostly purees still, but has also moved onto risks, toast, etc and drinking water from her soppy cups on her own. April 4th, she stood on her own, unsupported !! About a week shy of 8 months. G was walking by 10 months, so I assume she will too! She is so strong and smart!
- I am totally ready for Easter! All the gifts are bought and all the plastic eggs are filled. I bought a TON of them this year. G requested a mix of chocolate eggs and jelly beans (he has to be in the mood for chocolate, so I had already anticipated he would want that, thank god!)
- have I mentioned how much I love Amazon prime?!
- excited for fishbowl Friday with Shannon tomorrow night. And Saturday is the kids sale! Sunday I want to take g to the library. Maybe more open houses.
-booking our next trip during the cinco de mayo sale on may 5 through our membership
- what's new with everyone else?
