Weekend Recap
This weekend ended up being pretty full, even though I had every intention in the world to empty out the rest of my house of furniture we don't need!
Friday night Tyler was supposed to be out at a poker game that he goes to once a month, but he got the dates wrong and it's actually next Friday, so we decided to just stay in, order in food and relax. We ordered some Popeye's from the Uber Eats app, and after a couple of very frustrating phone calls, we finally got some food an hour and forty minutes later (food that was cold, and not anything resembling the order we placed). My nerves were shot. After the kids went to bed, I had a bath and we were in bed quite early.
Saturday morning Tyler and Garett were out the door by 8AM (which foiled my plans to go have a "me" morning and get a mani/pedi). They went to help build a pergola in a friends backyard. Garett never wanted to come home. This couple is so sweet; they gave garett a sweater of the husbands from when he was little, played with remote controlled tanks, and baked cookies while Tyler helped build. When they came home, we all relaxed for a second since Keira was having her nap. When she woke up at 2:30, we headed out to the store to pick up some bbq stuff and a veggie tray and headed to Kanata for a pool party. Tyler did a job for these people and it has turned into a friendship, so he wanted to introduce them to us (us as in the kids and I lol). I didn't have a GREAT time because there was a lot of people there and they all knew each other. Garett made a little friend and they played some soccer, and then played on the iphones together for an hour. Keira found the nearest dirt pile and had the time of her life. The kids got tired around 5:30, so we headed out and just cooked at home before an early bed time for them.
We weren't nearly as tired as the kids, so once we got them down, we had a babysitter over and Ty and I went to Grace O'Malleys to watch his cousin Casey's gig. It was a nice couple hours our and about, went home, watched a Jason Mraz concert on Quello and went to bed too late.
The kids slept in until 7 on Sunday, thankfully, and we got up, had breakfast and lounged for a bit. I had really bad anxiety yesterday, but had stuff to do, so I went about the day. I did groceries, got rid of our butcher block, a dresser from our bedroom, and threw out two more garbage bags of stuff.
I put away some laundry, and started deflating all the back yard stuff. The kids played outside for a long time before we went inside for "chocolate milk"--it's the only way I could bribe them to come inside to cook dinner haha. The kids were obviously pooped, so at 6, we went upstairs to run them baths and then made a "bed" out of pillows and blankets on our bedroom floor and put on the new Netflix movie "Next Gen" and I made them a snack plate of cucumbers, grapes, strawberries, crackers, bologna and yogurt lol. I needed to use up a bunch of stuff, so this was a perfect time for that!
I went downstairs and packed G's lunch, laid out their clothes for today and then I took a bath and we watched some "Zumbo's Just Desserts" baking competition show--like 4 episodes lol.
Hope everyone has a wonderful Monday! Tomorrow I have a short day because daycare has a morning appointment, so I will only have to come in around 10:30 :)
