It’s going to be screaming  Thade for the next week (or so), he can’t wait!

I have something on the calendar everyday until the 29th, and it looks like this trend is going to carry on until May. Yesterday I missed posting, because I was in the kitchen for the entire day. I was making 12 dozen cookies, and 2 pans of brownies for my hubby’s work lunch going on today. I finished up the last 3 dozen cookies this morning, so once Yo Gabba Gabba! is over we’ll deliver the last of them, and run an errand too.

My big kid has decided that 5:30 a.m. is the new time for him to wake up to go to school. This morning he started the trend of going in and waking up his little brother at 5:30 a.m. too. Not too cool, the little Miss wasn’t cooperating last night, and didn’t get to decent sleep until 2:00 a.m. I don’t think that I’m going to make it on three hours of sleep today.

I have a parent-teacher conference this week too, which a;ways makes me nervous. It is also Book Fair week, so I know that Thade is going to be bugging me about this one. Maybe I’ll go and finally get a Library Card, and see if that will work instead.

Spring Break is coming up soon, and Thade can’t wait. There are Doctor’s appointments to go too, and I’ve got another Dentist appointment later this month too. I don’t know what the Miss will think about having everyone home, her big brothers don’t like to let her nap.

Dylan’s 3rd birthday is this month too. So there is shopping to be done, and a birthday party to plan too. Dylan is really excited too, since he is turning 3, he will be able to attend pre-school in the Fall. He can’t wait.

Time to pack up the diaper bag, and get back to it.

After the kick-off we had a birthday party to go to, and it was really fun. It was held at community center/ fire station. The boys were thrilled to get to see some fire trucks, and enjoy some cake and pizza too.

I’m ready to call it a day though, but there is still dinner to be made and three kiddos to take care of. We’ll see what tomorrow brings our way.

Where I wish I was today…

I’ve lost count of the days, but just in case you were wondering. I’m still sick… It sucks! I’m off to the Dentist today too, so that is another bummer layer added onto this sucky day of mine. I have to be better tomorrow, I just have to!

I’ve had a few people ask about how the new veggie me is going, and I’m sad to report that week #3 and week #4 were really bad weeks for me. I fell off the veggie bandwagon hard… I had the flu, and then an evil cold, and I was so sick that I didn’t want to cook any extra meals, so it was back to whatever the family was having for dinner. It’s now March though, and I’m finally feeling better, so I’m giving it another go. Wish me luck!

Time to make some shopping lists and get to cooking.

Today the Little Miss is four months old.

I can’t believe just how fast the last 4 months have flown by…

I had about 7 stops to make today, and I only made it to 6, but the last one was one of the best. There was the usual, Post Office, Walgreens, Gas Station, and then I looked at the list and we needed to run to Tractor Supply. This is probably Dylan’s favorite place to shop in town, and I only go once in a while to pick up cat food. Today, I spotted something else in the store though…

They have Easter Bunnies for sale! Cute, adorable, super sweet little bunnies. Dylan spotted them too, there were probably six hopping around in a big cage, and he had to stop and talk to them. I took a pic on my phone, and sent it to my hubby, I don’t think that I can talk him into one, but maybe Dylan can.
