Wednesday Weekend Recap

I am so late updating on the weekend that just went by, because it flew by, and it's crazy how fast time is passing!


On Friday after work, I rushed home to finish packing Garett, feed the kids dinner and Tyler took him to the museum of nature for a sleepover for his Beavers group. It was a drop off event for our colony (or else they would have too many people if all parents were invited), so he got home, Keira went to bed, we went in the hot tub and relaxed for the evening.


Saturday was a 9AM pickup, so Ty went to grab Garett, they ran a few errands and when Keira was going for her nap, I took my boy into toy to Toys R Us to get a gift for his friend and spend "his birthday money" aka saving his birthday money and me buying it lol. So he bought some stuff, and wanted to buy something for Keira too- he picked an Elsa Barbie doll (which she LOVED). We went home and wrapped his friends gift, and when Keira woke up from her nap, we went on a 5km walk around the neighbourhood (my friend Jami, Brin on her bike and their dog Gunner also came). Garett rode his bike, and I pushed Keira in her tricycle thing, but she pedalled the whole way! When we got back, we cooked dinner and the kids went back outside and we played hockey, they rode bikes more, played with chalk, and went exploring in the yard. Garett found a bunch of wood the old owners left in the woods and declared that tyler could use it to build a fort (no).


Sunday we were up around 8:30, so we rushed through breakfast and Garett and I got ready. I took him to a birthday party at Kids Kingdom (he picked a stick bot studio and an additional stick bot dog, and a magic kit for gifts). The party was 10-12:15, so I went to visit Shan at home and then headed back to pick him up. We went home and Keira had no nap. So we played outside, tidied up the basement and relaxed with a movie!


Monday was yucky weather, so Ty took the kids in and I was home for the day, so I caught up on almost all of the laundry (yeah, there was that much to do and put away), cleaned out the fridge, did all the dishes and scrubbed down the kitchen, cleaned both kids rooms, tidied the basement (emptied the last two boxes- they were books and dvds), vacuumed, swept, changed our linens, caught up on ALOT of Shameless and relaxed!


We started Keto on March 31, and it's been great! I am getting used to the perpetual sugar cravings, I don't miss carbs, and the kids are even enjoying the new recipes (though they still get to eat fruit, bread/rice/potatoes, drink milk and juice, etc). So far, I'm down 11 pounds and Ty is at about 5, but he consumes a lot more that has some sugar in it than me (his "fat bombs" that I make, he is obsessed with and has a few grams of sugar). I am at 0 sugar per day, and I will only allow it to myself when we have our cheat weekends. I don't want to risk pulling myself out of ketosis for a little cream cheese lol.


Another busy week/weekend ahead for the next 4 weekends. I suppose that shouldn't surprise me! lol


Have a great week!
