I didn't see any RAWVs or weekend plans so I thought maybe we'd be up for a recap?
We had a nice weekend. The girls played so nicely and we all went swimming on Saturday. DH and I took a yoga class too and I am sooooooo sore today. Like I can't cough and my legs are killing me if I stand up. Sunday we kept waiting for the snow, but it didn't show up until too late to go out and play. We made cookies, taught dd1 a new game and did a bunch of chores. I am feeling good about this week though. I don't feel like I'm behind from the start
H and I took DD to Atlanta to watch the SEC gymnastics championship. She loves gymnastics and loved watching it. We drove back yesterday morning and then hung out at home the rest of the day. DS stayed with my parents which he loves! We picked him up yesterday afternoon.

Went too quick and feels like I did to see dh at all. He worked a side job on Saturday and Sunday I did one on one dates with each kid. Our to breakfast and shopping with ds; open gym with dd.
It was a gorgeous weekend while we waited on terrible storms that never came. We took the boat out Saturday and went to the mall to restock DH and DS1's wardrobe. One is growing and the other is shrinking. Sunday DS1 had soccer and we played at home.
I also started making contacts to get DS2 a service dog. I am obsessively checking my email this morning hoping for some responses. We have talked about it for a while but I accepted he isn't getting better quickly and we could all benefit. It's an awkward mix of sad and excited.
We did some shopping for decor for the bathrooms that we recently remodeled and other general house stuff. We also made an awesome steak dinner last night with rice, roasted tomatoes and eggplant, wine, and baklava for dessert.
Pretty quiet weekend. We got 4 inches of snow Saturday night. On Sunday the temperature was decent so we had a great day enjoying the (hopefully) last snow fall of the year.

Mine was rough. I had a double funeral for a relative and her husband who were killed in a crash and left behind a daughter. It was a very hard Saturday and I was gone all day since it was in a neighboring state. DD got to go to her great-grandparents' house, which is her favorite place in the world, so I'm lucky I didn't have to take her. DH works weekends. Sunday was our friend's 3rd birthday party plus some light shopping. I got cheap sunglasses I like and cleaned the house.
Ours was nice! DH was home. Friday night we had an all-too-rare date night and went out to dinner. Saturday we had my aunt, uncle and grandma over to celebrate my grandma's 96th b-day a bit and to visit. So grateful I can still visit with my 96 year old grandma!! Sat. night DH and I actually managed to watch a movie I'd DVRd. Usually we either don't have time or fall asleep! Sunday I woke up with a sore spot on my breast AGAIN, which was a bummer. I have gotten mastitis a lot and just got done with antibiotics earlier in the week. I think this one might be okay and resolve on its own, though. Crossing fingers. Anyway, we went to church for the first time since the baby was born in January, made a big breakfast/lunch with the kids, they played outside w/ DH, and then we went to BIL and SIL's house for dinner and to watch part of the Wisconsin game. All in all, a very good weekend.

Ours was really busy. Our Cinderella bday party at the movies for DD was a success. It was so exhausting though. The movie was great! she had a blast. Yesterday I was still tired from it so I didn't get much done. Getting back on the cleaning schedule today!
I was playing in the band for a conference at church all weekend. So DS spent the night with my Mom on Friday and was with her all day Saturday. Then I was at church like a regular Sunday. DH is out of town and is coming home today. Yay!
DH was out of town for most of it and I spent most of Saturday morning at DS's school. We transformed the music room to a mock grocery store and then I had to do some work for our fundraising gala next month. Sunday we got some rain (yay! We desperately need it), but were at the beach house so DS was pissed because he had grand plans of burying his pirates treasure chest he recently got. DH got back in time for Sunday dinner with my parents and sister so that was nice. Busy week ahead! Lots of dinners, doctors apts, school meeting and DS's fourth birthday party is coming up!
Picked DH up from the airport Friday at 5:30 and picked up yummy Thai food. Saturday I found a great clearance on diapers at Target and took the kids to the park. They were so exhausted from playing they ate dinner at 4:45 and were passed out at 6:30. (DH worked all day) Sunday DH was off so I escaped in the morning, did some shopping and took myself out for brunch where I indulged ridiculously on a cheese burger with a fried egg on top and a Moscow Mule. Then I came home and we took the kids shopping for some new stuff, made a big family dinner and was asleep by 9. Weekend success.
We moved into our new house this weekend. I love it so much!!! This is the home we plan to be in for the next 20 years and where we plan to raise DD and her future brothers/sisters. It's a very active block with lots of young families and everyone seems so nice. I'm soooo excited (if you can't tell)!
Also, a good friend of mine who has been trying for a while got a BFP! Yay! I, on the other hand got a BFN. Boo.

Thanks for your kind words. I hesitate to share stuff that would make me feel like a pity AW but this death hit me hard. Love your kids every day you have them.
Went to H's work party Friday night-was nice to have time alone and we won an iPad mini 2 in the raffle woo!
Saturday we just rand errands and prepped for DS' bday party.
Sunday we had ds' party and it was a success. It was crazy with over 40 people here and half of them small kids. We had 2 Mickey piƱatas that the kids went crazy for and pin the nose on Mickey was a hit with the big kids. Between all that and corn hole and Mini bowling out back, it looked like we had a frat party lol. DS had a blast, I was so proud of him for playing nicely and sharing and being good-and melt down free yay!
