Ha, I actually woke up before everyone else this morning and was going to relax for a few minutes. I'd barely sat up in bed and turned on my iPad before I heard a little voice hollering "Mommy! Mommeeeeeeeeeee!" So much for a little peace and quiet. Lol.
We just got back from shopping with my mom and I did a little more damage than I expected, but I got a few new work outfits, new purse which was desperately needed, new bedspread for MIL, clothes for G, and finally the rest of my elf gift.
I'm waiting for my cupcakes to cool before attempting G's "bright purple race car cake". Wish me luck!
We need to take the van to the mechanic because the engine light keeps coming on. I really hope it's a quick and cheap fix. That's the car that has cruise control, so it's the one I'm taking on my drive tomorrow. As much as I like driving, I'm not overly looking forward to driving 8 hours.
Although, if any Chicago people wanted to get together for an hour, I'm sure I'll want a break as I'm driving through.
We will probably be around tomorrow. Message me if you want to meet up! Where is your interview?

I won't have internet access while I'm on the road, so if anyone wants to, maybe we can pick a place and I'll give you guys my cell number.
I'm guessing I'll be in the Chicago area around 2 or 3.

Ugh. We are at The Little Mermaid and Friends and it's a ballet. It's soooo boring. All v wants tondo is climb the stairs. I don't think I can do 2 hours of this. But I feel like the princess meet and greet is the only way to justify the amount of money we spent on this. Fun for the whole family, my ass.

Sorry! We've been there. Oh this will be a great family activity we are so fun what a great experience...and then it sucks, lol.
Omg. Dh does not handle tantrums and typical toddler behavior well. D had a big tantrum and wasn't listening at lunch. It's over now- she's in quiet time. But he is so mopey and grumpy. It is driving me insane. I tried everything I could to help him cheer up but he won't. I'm sure he will keep this up the rest of the weekend and I'm so sad. I was looking forward to some good family time.

I couldn't take it anymore. We walked to a retro arcade instead. Lesson learned.
I'm glad we never told her Ariel was going to be there, as we never even made it to that part.

My friend is picking me up soon so that the two of us can head out to a special event thing. I don't know much about if, but I involves drinks so I'm excited. My kids have been a little crazy this afternoon so I'm kinda excited to break free and have some adult conversation. Not sure what to wear since I don't get out much these days. Footwear is so confusing in this weather too. I attempted to curl my thick long hair for the first time today, I think I did ok.
Well, I couldn't quite get the color right because I didn't have a purple gel dye, but it's a hit with G and that's all I care about. He got his purple race car and it was easy to do. He may never sleep tonight!
B just finished a major meltdown. It was actually his first of the day which is something. He was throwing everything off the ottoman in our room even after I asked him to stop. I lost patience quickly. The more and more pregnant I get, the less patience I have. I'm officially over it. I can't move and none of my clothes fit.
I actually accomplished some things today though. I cleaned out the closets in the baby's room and B's room, got a bunch of baby stuff ready to wash, did some random loads of laundry, ran the dishwasher, and put up some Easter stuff. Now that doesn't sound like much. Oh well. I want to get baby clothes put away and bring baby stuff up from the basement but we're tearing out our old carpet tomorrow because they're installing Monday. It would be a waste to bring up a bunch of stuff that we'd just have to move again.
