Going to Maine. The inlaws have a house on the beach. The house is great but small so it will be very overwhleming. I'm planning on some alone time though! Hopefully the weather holds out.
This may all change since DH is in a funk since our argument yesterday. But tentative plans are: Saturday- IKEA to buy a bed and dresser for the boys room. I finally sold enough to cover the cost so I'm excited. Plus going to Target to hopefully buy maternity shorts. (Pregnants- cartwheel is 25% off) Sunday- probably just church, grocery shopping and cleaning Monday- we are walking down to the water where church is hosting a MD event. We just pack a lunch and they're providing drinks and activities. Then of course a BBQ for dinner.

New Orleans Wine and Food Exp started Wednesday and goes through Sunday. DH is hosting our traditional Friday lunch so I will be leaving work early today. We hope to take in part of the grand tasting tomorrow followed by dinner. Sunday and Monday will be all about W and may involve the Zoo, Animal Adventure, swimming or bounce house depending on the weather.
We're having a cookout on Monday, but probably just the usual, plus a deep clean of the house. It's supposed to rain all weekend so MH may smoke ribs instead. We've had more ran YTD than we had all of last year! I need to figure out sides and a dessert, but it should be a relaxing weekend.

Whatever you do, don't go to ikea if you guys are still annoyed with each other. (I missed what you guys argued about, I hope everything is okay!)
Ikea can drive anyone insane, esp on a Saturday! I get mad every time I go in there.. its so confusing!!
hoping tonight one or both the teenagers from up the street will come over and hang out for an hour, get used to the kids etc because we need to start going out sometimes and having a babysitter
They are 17 & 18 I think and they work part time in a daycare and they live three houses down.
Then if that works out maybe one night this weekend we will go out! A dinner and drinks with H and no kids where we can actually talk without Two kids screaming in our faces will be nice
Also there is a party tomorrow with H work friends (kids can come), a block party in our neighborhood Sunday and a parade Monday. Not sure what we'll do yet, we also considering a light hike somewhere

My H took off today- hooray! I'm heading into Manhattan for a derm appt and a few errands soon. Going to a BBQ Sunday but besides that no other plans! Yahoo!
Going up to my parent's tonight. My sister's birthmom & half-brother are in town, so we're having dinner with them, my parents, my sister & and her H tonight. We haven't seen my sister's birthmom & her half-brother in a few years, so it will be nice to see them again! She's the sweetest - she's always sending me messages on facebook, and cards on birthdays and Christmas. No plans for the rest of the weekend. I didn't realize it was a 3 day weekend until yesterday.
Not much tomorrow besides yoga, a short run, and eating mac and cheese. Then Sunday will be crazy. Buffalo Half Marathon in the AM, nap, massage, then heading to a condo an hour away for a small bachelorette getaway. Monday we're going white water rafting. I will need a vacation from my weekend.

Nothing any more we planned a trip to the cabin, but with Mel being sick I don't see it happening.
I'm extra bummed because it is birthing time for the sheep and there are baby lambs and I could have seen a birth. We probably can't go next weekend either, so we'll miss it.
So it'll be me going crazy in the house all fucking weekend. Grr.
Not much. I think on Sunday Emerson and I are meeting my brother for his birthday dinner. Monday we might go to the lake, I'm not sure. I want it to be warm enough for swimming!
With a birthday party on Saturday and a BBQ on Sunday, we're already more social than we were back in Virginia. We also have some open houses to go to and hope to squeeze in a trip to the beach sometime.
Sunday my parents are coming for a bbq. My mom was a little sad we didn't want to get together on the holiday. I don't understand that. What does it matter, which day?
Then Monday h's mentor is renting out the country club for a bbq. So I'll go for about 2 hours with A and then come home for a nap. Dh can stay and shmooze.

So.much.rain. I can't believe how much rain we've gotten. The lakes over here are spilling over.
Not much. We are having a date night tomorrow night and going to a baseball game. The local minor league team just built a new stadium and there is a lot of hype with this being opening weekend. Other than that, hopefully MH will get a few of our house projects started and/or done!

My co-worker went last night. It's a beautiful building! I can't wait to see it.
We are going to my parents' house for the weekend. Saturday DH, my dad, and BILs are going to the lake in the morning and golfing in the afternoon. I'll go visit my grandparents and have lunch with a friend. Sunday, E and I are going to the lake with DH. Sunday night we're going to a shrimp/crawfish boil with my family. Monday, driving home.
Going to the lake cabin Up North!!!!!!!!!! It's the Minnesota way.
It's the Michigan way too! We're headed to DH's family's cabin on a small lake. It will be nice to see everyone and L is so excited to go, but I am less than thrilled. The drive will be long with a nursing baby and then it will probably be too cold to swim, which L will not understand. I'm envisioning lots of crying discussion about why he can't go into the water. It's a small place, so it will be a bit cramped also.
On the positive, though, I should be able to get someone to watch the kids while I nap for a bit and there will be wine!
My best friend is coming to town with her family. We'll have four adults and four boys ages 0-4 in our not-spacious apartment. I can't wait for the chaos! Her kids haven't been to NY before, so we're going to the Bronx zoo (bug carousel!), the natural history museum (dinos!), and maybe the transit museum (trains!). I'm going to channel irishsara and enjoy being steeped in a big pot of boy.
Whole lot of nothing except a couple of hours of massages tomorrow. Huge thunderstorms in the forecast for the whole thing. My mom is finally coming home, but won't be back until late Monday or early Tuesday.

Same here...the water will be too cold to swim. I am not sure the kids will understand.
And yes to the help and wine! My parents and sister will be there with us, so I get to relax a lot.
