after spending my typical friday night here, the girls and i packed up mommy’s car, and headed to my folks. the girls’ spent the weekend there. both of them, a first. and they did really well:) miss emi has always had her one-on-one time with them, but this was a first for the baby. granted, she had to share, they both did awesome! my folks had just installed a new bball court, along with a swing set that includes a slide, 2 teeter totters, and a hanging bar. combine that with the water play area and lawn, emi was so thrilled! she said, *MOMMY- this is all so KEWL! just like a park!!!*
as soon as i got home, my dh had already cleaned the kitchen and bathrooms, and had started literally dumping out all closets into our family/living room. we, over the next 12 hours, had one of those deep cleaning sessions that had been oh more than 18 months coming! he knows me, and knows when i try to clean, i make a bigger mess than ever and get side tracked like 100 times w/in the hour, so i was given contained tasks like the girls’ rooms, and he totally took care of the rest! 6 HUGE garbage bags of stuff to donate/throw out later, and we have more living space in all rooms, and an entirely empty shelf in one of the closets. very thrilling moment indeed! quite the concept to NOT fill something simply b/c it is empty! we did take a dinner break, at our FAVE japanese restaurant, too. it was so strange w/o the girls, and all the staff asked where they were:)
sunday, after church, i headed up for the mechanic’s meeting and crop, at suzy’s!
borrowed this one from her blog, our team is just amazing! i am truly honored to be with all these fun, inspirational, strong, and creative girls! we planned out the next 6 months of events/classes. . . and i cannot wait to see how it all unfolds and what creative stuff goes on! we always have literally the latest and greatest products to work with, she totally takes care of us! LOVE you suzy and TEAM! after the meeting and lunch, we shopped, chatted and then started cropping:) i actually was quite productive, given we didn’t start croppin til around 3pm. i posted earlier about just being in denial of how fast life with a second child has gone by. so, i printed all my faves from her 5m-12m. managed to organize them all, and then get 1 1/2 los finished for my assignments for next month . . . until we get a phone call from janice!!! she was like, um hello, i’m here, should i meet you at the movies or? . . .
so, PO, suzy and i literally use the potty, grab garbage and head out the door to run to the theatre to get in line for some SEX (and the city)! omgosh, if you haven’t seen it, go! go. now. it is that GOOD. it is 11pm on a tues night, and it is playing somewhere. go now!
my folks brought the girls’ home, and then daddy took care of them for dinner/baths/reading/prayers. such an amazing daddy he is to our sweet/sassy and full of drama girls! wouldn’t have it any other way!
happy tuesday!!!
