Classic Car Show

My hubby called me today and told me about an Antique Car Show happening a few blocks from his work. My boys and I like just about anything to do with cars, so I gathered up the kids and we headed out to look at some pretty sweet rides. Thade and Dylan had a great time, and I did too. The weather was perfect, and it was free to get in to the Auto Show (can’t beat that).

Thade and I had fun picking out our favorite cars, I liked a baby blue Buick, and he liked the Rally Car because it could drift, maybe 😉

To Go List

I always pack extra whenever I’m taking the kids anywhere. Two unpacked outings while Thade was teething taught me to bring that extra set of clothes, just in case 😉 My trusty Dale Jr soft sided cooler is a little cramped with all of the boy’s items, so I’m switching to a bigger bag. I thought it would be fun to share my list of items I’m packing.

My two bags: One diaper bag to carry, and an extra bag filled with items that I might need. Continue reading »

Road Trip

My darling husband James has been working open to close ( 6:45 a.m.-6:00 p.m. Monday-Saturday) for a week solid, and he is so tired and needs a day off. This weekend I’m taking the boy’s on a little trip to see my mom (Nana) so James can have an entire day of peace and quiet. I also have another reason for this trip, James birthday and our anniversary are coming up soon, so I need to do some shopping too. No screaming baby for Daddy and shopping for me sounds pretty good.

This is the first time that I have taken both of the boys to Nana’s by myself, so I need to start planning and packing today. The trip is just over an hour, but you never know how Dylan is going to do in the car, or how many times I’ll need to stop and change him. I need to have extra changes of clothes for both kids, pull-ups, diapers, wipes, and snacks for Thade. Better make a list so I don’t forget anything 😉

I hope that the trip goes well, and I hope my hubby enjoys the well deserved break. Does anybody have any plans for the weekend?

To Do Today

Yesterday I spent all day in the kitchen, and I have the dishes to prove it 😉 I’m going to be cleaning up a lot in there today. Last night I ran out of time and energy, so I didn’t get the 3 loads of laundry put away that I needed to, so that is moving to the top of the list.

Here is the plan for today:

  • Put away 3 loads of laundry
  • CLEAN THE KITCHEN!!!!
  • Go to Walgreens
  • Go to Dollar General
  • Sort through all of the boy’s clothes and get them in to bins (we had a cold snap last night, so it is time to get out the cooler clothes)
  • Wash 2 loads of laundry
  • Empty all of the wastebaskets
  • Take out the trash, and take the trash cans to the alley

Let’s see what I get done today. I had better start with the laundry while the boys are being quiet 😉
