Ramdom Friday Thoughts

Ya'll this week has kicked my butt.  Eric's little incident was minor, but it has messed up our weekly routine which means I'm running around like a chicken with my head cut off...I know, what else is new?

 I didn't make it to the grocery on Tuesday because I had to come home to sleep from being at the hospital so late on Monday. Now we're spending way too much money eating out on some unhealthy food.

There are dishes in the sink, and I'm pretty sure our playroom is in violation of every fire safety ordinance known to man.

Do you know what clutter does to my sanity? It's not good ya'll!

Not to mention that after taking afternoon naps to recoup, we're all up too late at night then tired again the next day...it's a vicious cycle I tell you.

I got about two hours of uninterrupted sleep last night, but I feel surprisingly refreshed. Although, you might want to check back with me this afternoon for an update...haha!

This weekend looks a little dull so far, but that might be a blessing in disguise considering I have about ten loads of laundry that need tended to and a summer tan that needs some work.

It's supposed to rain on Sunday, so who knows, I may get wild and clean out a closet...but don't count on it.

The week hasn't been a total bust.  I did manage make it to work every day, clean out the car, get fitted for a bridesmaid dress, run a few miles, and have a mommy/son date. 

Nonetheless, yay for weekends!!

A New Decade

Happy 2020, everyone!  I know I'm a month and a half behind, but ya'll, January was brutal!  Not brutal in a tragic kind of way but in a "life will wear you out" kind of way. It started off with the flu...times three!  Eric, Ellie and I had Flu B and missed the first week back to school and work.  Then Eli was diagnosed with Flu A two weeks later.  Thankfully, my in-laws stepped in to help so that we didn't have to miss any more time at work. On top of the sickness, we listed our house for sale. The work it takes getting ready for market is just crazy. But we also have people coming in and out of our home at all hours and it's just kinda overwhelming. Plus, we are finalizing everything with the builder. In full transparency, working with the builder has been the easiest part! Maybe I'll do a little update on the whole building process later this week.  Now that the dust has settled on 2020, I'm going to try my very hardest to keep this litt...

Running Through The Sprinkler

Playing in the sprinkler was on our summer bucket list.  To me it seems weird just checking if off and moving on to the next activity because when I was younger, we ran through a sprinkler pretty much every day.  Putting it under the trampoline and letting it keep all the "jumpers" cool, was a favorite pastime. I cringe now. What the heck were we doing with eight kids on a net-free trampoline anyway? Ha! Back to the present…Eric treated the pool yesterday, so we couldn't swim which made it the perfect night to drag out the water hose and sprinkler.   Neither child loved it at first, so we turned down the pressure.  They slowly but surely warmed up to it.  Bless her little heart, Ellie stood right in the middle and took a direct hit.  She would make the worst face you've ever seen then cry ridiculsouly if you tried to move her.  Eli ran straight though the middle with his eyes closed.  Thank goodness our y...

Sunday Funday

Ellie redeemed herself last night by sleeping EIGHT STRAIGHT HOURS!!  Ya'll, we are so blessed to have a good sleeper, and Eli is doing great too!  There are no word to express our gratitude. I try to get pictures on Sundays before church because it's pretty much the only day that we all look presentable, at least at the same time.  Some days I still have on work clothes and look ok, but the kids are in sweats from daycare, or they're looking super cute and I'm in gym clothes.  Please tell me you understand this! At church today, a friend's son gave Eli two brand new pair of baseball pants.  Brett plays ball for a local high school, and Eli thinks he hung the moon.  You can imagine how excited he was to sport his new pants.  As soon as we got home, Eli had change into them and a baseball shirt...love his heart! Eric let me take a little nap, and when I woke up we decided to let Eli swim in the kiddie pool since it's about a ba...
