Another day to just wake up slowly,

today was a little earlier then a normal Sunday since it seemed like all the boys were up and loud at like 6AM!! Tim and I lazed till about 8:30AM and then he needed to get up and get ready for work!! Boo!! He had to go work in Somerset today because he had to work pizza on Friday and he didn't get down there and his boss is coming there on Monday! So once I was up and functioning I worked on putting the stuff from yesterday's shopping excursion away and working on Little man's valentine's! Then at about noon I decided I didn't want to make lunch so I told the kids to get dressed, I wanted to head out earlier but no one wanted to go with me so this way I didn't give them a choice!! We headed to Eat N Park and the roads were terrible, so slick! We waited like 45 minutes for our food and it was just - blah!! I mean the kids were good and what not but we all just wanted to eat!! Then we headed to Wal Mart and I got some new yoga pants and some new sports bras. I got some groceries for lunched this week! Once we left the weather was even worse and I had a tough time getting out of the parking lot, once we were on the roads it was only like one lane, but at least the lane was semi clear! We made a quick stop at JoAnn's and then headed home! I spent the rest of the afternoon sorting sequins and finishing up those damn valentines! Finally they are done and now all 3 boys are done!! 

At about 7:15PM I was griping at Gman to get in the shower and he was whining and belly aching and just being a crab (like he had been all day - his stomach hurt, his throat hurt, his nose was running, he was coughing, he was sneezing, he didn't eat dinner) and as I was hustling him in there I check him for fever and he was burning up - 101.3 fever!! No wonder he was a crab all day!! So no school for him tomorrow and I'm sure we will be heading to the doctors!! Now Tim got home at 7:30PM and went out to snow blow the driveway, he's in the room now working on some work and I'm gonna hit publish and head that way too!!

TGIF!!!

Woo hoo, so glad that today is the last day of the school week!! I so need a day to "sleep in"!! So the alarm went off bright and early at 6AM and we got up and got all the usual stuff done and then headed back to bed. I didn't really drift off till close to 7AM, so when our second alarm sounded at 7:30AM I didn't want to get out of bed even more then the first time....but I did and we got all that usual stuff done too!! Once we got the 2 bigger boys on the bus T, C and I climbed back into our bed and snuggle down for about an hour!! It was so nice, but again once T got up to get ready for work I just couldn't get out of bed again!! I dozed on and off till like 11:30AM!!! Once I got up I was in my office all day!! Finishing valentines and putzing around! I got C and I lunch - meat and cheese roll ups and then more putzing!! Once S and R got home at 3:15Pm I headed out the door to Giant Eagle to get my medicine! While I was out I hit Michael's, JoAnn's and TJ Maxx - just browsed, couldn't even find anything to buy! Then I hit McDonald's for a bacon mcdouble, frappe and 2 strawberry cream pies - they were AMAZING!!! Once back home I let S make dinner - homemade pizza. I stood around and helped coach her and she did an awesome job! 

The pizza was so good!!! Then after dinner more putzing in the office - I got Gman's valentines DONE! I got Little man's almost done. Then I decided I wanted to do my Project Life in "paper" so I sketched out the 4 weeks that have passes and I got three weeks worth of photos edited and ready to print! Daddy was in New Brighton again doing pizza all day and he got home about 10:30PM. We had a snack (nachos and meatball sub) and now he's in the living room watching TV and I'm writing this! But it's so damn cold here (10 degrees) that once I hit publish I'm headed to my bed where my lovely hubby has already turned on my electric blanket and I think I'm going to SLEEP!!!

Ugh!!

So I was totally wishing for a 2 hour delay today, but no go! I was so grumpy when my alarm went off and I wanted to stay in BED!!! But I got up and T made pancakes and I packed lunches and then we went back to bed!! Hahaha!!! Second alarm went off at 7:30AM and we got up and went through the same routine to get the boys ready!! I jumped in the shower real quick before I finished up their lunches - believe me it was much needed!! Then we got the boys on the bus and C and I headed off to his school!! Once I dropped him off I headed to Wal Mart to get pull ups because even thought I got C up at 11PM to pee (and he peed), he still woke up wet and I hate washing sheets, to pick up soap, pull ups and milk!! Then I headed home and woeked on laundry and the kid's valentines!! Then I headed out at 11AM to get C. Once I got him picked up we went and picked up daddy to go to Mickey's for our weekly lunch date!! Daddy was just working in town today because he has to go to New Brighton to work pizza. So C and I came back home and he played his DS, I continued laundry and finished Gman and C's valentines!!
Gman's valentine's!
Woo Hoo and I started Little man's! Then I started scrapping some project life - trying to catch up. Then came dinner (spaghetti/meatballs), more scrapping and then it was time to shower the boys and get them into bed! Then it was back into the office for more scrapping and then daddy came home at about 9:30PM. Now I'm typing this and once I hit submit I'm headed to my bed to snuggle down under my electric blanket and catch a few zzzzzzzzzzzzzzz's!!!

Snow Day!

Today started out with the phone ringing at 5:30AM when the school's automated system called us to tell us school was closed, well T didn't make it to the phone on time so it they called back 10 minutes later!! Hahaha!! We kind of figured it was coming because we had a storm during the night: ice and snow!! Boo!! So we all got to laze in bed this morning and just relax. The boys had cereal for breakfast. I had frozen waffles and daddy got up and "shoveled" the drive way (he used the snow blower) but it was slow going because the snow was so wet and heavy that it kept clogging the pipe and he had to keep stopping and clear it out!! Hahaha!! He finally got done and got ready for work and left! I finally woke the girls up at 10AM and told them they had like 5 minutes to eat breakfast!! Then the rest of the day I spent cleaning my office.

Cutting box tops. Cleaning out my email. Cleaning up my download folder in ACDSee. I had S clean the living room and I also worked on laundry off and on all day! I had to wash C's sheets because we have decided to try and night train him - we started that about 2 nights ago, tonight is the 3rd night. The first night he woke himself up and we took him pee so he was dry that morning but the 2nd night he fell asleep early and when we tried to get him to go pee he wailed! So I just put him to bed and then when we went to bed we tried to get him up again and again he wailed so I decided I'd rather wash sheets then listen to him cry, well he woke up wet this morning and then I remembered how much I hated washing and changing sheets!!! Hahaha!! Then I also washed Little man and Gman's clothes. The kids were mostly good - the boys of course fought but that's nothing new!! I made bacon scrambled eggs for dinner and everyone had a toasted peanut butter bagel. Then after dinner I finished cutting out the rest of the kid's valentines stuff and then started gluing bags together! At 6:30PM I started getting the boys showered and bathed and as 8PM rolled around I got them in bed - which went pretty smoothly! Then back in my office to finish gluing - I got all of Gman's owl bags glued so I can finishes them up tomorrow!!

Daddy came home about 9:15PM and brought me a meatball sub from Sheetz!! Now I'm done writing this and I'm gonna hit the hay!! It's been a long day!!!

Hulk, SMASH!!!

Happy 6th Birthday to my boy Gman!! We woke up this morning and it was a typical morning - got everyone fed and lunched packed and got them out the door!! Once everyone was gone I got to baking Gman's cake!! While it was baking I worked on some of the kid's valentines. Then I went in the kitchen and made some green fondant! It actually turned out great the first time and I was so stoked!! Then as the cake was cooling and the fondant was "setting up" I made homemade butter cream icing! I iced the cake and then got to work in putting the fondant on it!! It took me all morning and to just after lunch to finish this cake but it was so worth it, Gman LOVED it!!! 

Then after I was done and C was fed we headed out to town to pick up balloons for Gman and Chicken noodle soup (since that is what he requested for his birthday dinner) and mint chocolate chip ice cream (so it would match the green and black hulk cake). Then it was home and just hanging out till everyone started coming home! I got the kid's soup warmed up and crusty bread in the oven. After the were done eating daddy came home and brought us Thai food! Then it was time to have cake and ice cream! It was delicious!! Then we all just hung out for the rest of the night and put the kids to bed at about 8PM and then daddy and I climbed in bed!!

2 hour delay!


Another 2 hour delay today so another day of sleeping in, YAY!!! We were up and moving around 8AM. I got all the lunches packed while T made waffles for breakfast! The girls got off to school and T got off to work and it was just me and the three boys! I farted around in my office cleaning things up and then at 10:30AM it was time to get the boys outside! Got them on the bus and spent the rest of the late morning/early afternoon working on cutting out valentines with my silhouette and working on laundry! Then C and I left the house just before 3PM to head to EP to help with Market Day. 

We were only there about 30 minutes and then we left, I was gonna head to McDonald's to get a frappe but realized half way into town I forgot my phone at the school! Ugh!! Headed back to get it and then just headed home! Got my meatloaf mixed up and in the oven and then laid around a bit and read! Finished up dinner at about 5:30PM. Daddy got home at 6PM and had brought me and him Thai food! I ate about half of it and then at 6:45PM it was time for me and S to head out the door for her band concert! It was nice and she did an awesome job (even if she said it sounded terrible) and we were home by 8:30PM! Now I just got done surfing Pinterest for a hulk cake, emptying my mail box and now I'm headed to bed to read for a bit!! I need to get my cozy on!!
