Hello, Saturday!

Daddy was up and out the door early today because he had a meeting in LB. I left most of the kids with S while Gman and I went out shopping for Jocelynn's birthday present! We saw Heidi at Dollar Tree and she let us know Ashley (Gman's teacher) was in labor! When dad got home, I took Gman to his party and dropped him off and then headed back home to pick everyone else up, we had lunch at Ponda-gross-a....oh I mean Pondarosa and it freaking SUCKED!!! I think I ate 2 bits of my salad, a dinner roll with fake butter and 12 pieces of banana bread (the only decent thing in the whole place)!!! I vow never to go back there again, ugh, totally should not have let the kids talk me into going!! Then we hit Petco and let the kids look at all the animals and then back to Jocelynn's house to pick Gman up, just as we got there Heidi got the text that Ashley had the baby, a little boy! The rest of the day was spent just lounging around!!!

Happy 9th Birthday to my sweet little man!!!

I can not believe that this big boy was a baby at one time!! Gah!!! 

You can read his birth story (and see his hospital photo) in this post!!! So the day started off with us heading to Eat N Park for breakfast, Little man's request! We made him wait till after breakfast there to open his presents (OK, I made him because I hate the way photos look when they are taken in ort yellow kitchen) and he loved them all!!! Then we headed to Wal Mart to pick up some ice cream. Once home we cleaned the upstairs, well most of it - S did the kitchen and then the rest of us (ie: mommy and daddy) did the living room. Then it was lunchtime - mac n cheese - and then cake and ice cream time!!! YUMMY!!! Then I had just enough time to give Gman his breathing treatment before we headed to a birthday party for his friend at S&T Arena!! It was from 1 to 3 and I stayed the whole time - ugh the kids were all assholes!!! They were so bad and I think poor Gman was overwhelmed!! At one point when we were in the room waiting for cake Gman  said "I didn't know it was going to be like this - so loud"!!! Coming from the king of loud at our house; so you can imagine what it was like!!! We high tailed it out of there before 3 and came home to daddy cleaning the office. I sat down and started working on turkey crafts and here I still sit at almost 8PM!!! All I've stopped for is to eat dinner!! Cripes I'm so over this!!! Hahahaha!! But I'm quitting soon for the night!! I'm just finishing up this one last set and then I'm putting on some cozy jammies, crawling in my bed and reading!!! I can pick back up tomorrow!!!

Super Saturday!!

Woo hoo, so happy the weekend is finally here!! Daddy had to be up and out of the house by 8AM since he had a morning meeting at his Indiana store. C and I needed to leave the house a little after 9AM to go to Wal Mart and get a present for B's birthday party that he was going to at 10AM. We picked up a knight themed Imaginext toy and then I stopped at Mickey's and got us both a hash brown and a drink. Then we headed to the library!! It was perfect timing we got there right at 10AM, but I think we were a little early, but that is OK C got to play with B all by himself for a while!!! We were there till noon and the kids decorated helmets and shields. They got blow up swords. They played some games. They played with play dough. We ate pizza, fruit salad and cupcakes. They hit a pinata!! 

Looking for treasure in "dragon guts", C was not impressed!!!

Then we headed home and had a 2nd lunch and then after the girls showered we left!! We hit Big Lots looking for a new recliner. We hit Michael's, JoAnn's and Wal Mart. The kids got milk shakes for a snack and then we headed home to have meatball subs for dinner. Then I ran back out to go to JoAnn's again and to pick up the Turbo movie for the store! Now that kids are watching that in the living room and hubby and I are on our respective computers!!! After I'm done here I am hitting my bed and reading till I fall asleep!!!
