Warm Winter Coat

Well I almost got all of the errands run today, I didn’t get to Walgreens. I forgot to pack along the Snugli, and Walgreens carts are a little small for a toddler and a car seat. Oh well we’ll go out tomorrow when the kiddos are going stir crazy at home.

I did get the Wal-Mart run accomplished, and Thade found a nice Winter coat. It seemed a little funny buying one today, the weather was so nice. It will come in handy tomorrow when it is 44 and cold.

I found a nice white shirt for Thade to wear for the Christmas picture, lets see how long it stays clean 😉 I also picked up a little blue fleece zip-up jacket for Dylan to wear in the picture too. I tried to find items that would look nice for Christmas pictures, but they could wear again for other occasions.

Christmas Decorating Has Begun

On my block the Christmas decorating has begun, but not at my house just yet. Today I have already seen two houses on our block that are completely decorated. When I went out to fix our flag on the flag-pole my neighbor was up on a ladder hanging lights in some pretty gusty winds. Man they are on top of decorating. My tree is still in hiding, and I think I might have the ornaments in the utility room, maybe. And just where did I hide the wreath, and the ornaments for the upstairs tree?

I haven’t even thought about the outdoors, and I keep it pretty simple when it comes to decorating indoors. There is one tree downstairs, one upstairs in the boys room, and maybe a wreath. Sounds pretty sad. This year I’m going to do better, I hope…

How are you decorating for the holidays? Do you decorate outdoors too? Any suggestions to make Nico’s home a little more jolly for the holidays would be greatly appreciated 🙂

Today’s Outing

Today we are out to run a few errands, and the weather is perfect. It is supposed to be 74  today, but only 44 tomorrow. Better get everything done today! Here is the plan:

  • Wal-Mart for Sweet Potatoes and Shredded Cheese (which I forgot last time)
  • Walgreens for Pull-Ups-their brand is on sale this week
  • Visit James at work-hubby is working open to close today
  • Car Wash-the  boy’s might be a little grumpy, but my car is a mess
  • Put away 3 loads of laundry
  • Wash and put away clean dishes
  • Empty Upstairs waste baskets (if needed)
  • Empty Downstairs waste baskets (if needed)
  • Clean the litter-box (much needed)
  • Take out the trash

I wish the warmer weather would stick around just a little longer 😉
