I'm going to my sister's place and crashing at the pool all day. There's a bar and restaurant at the pool too so I plan on being there until the sun goes down.

My BFF finally got to bring her baby home from the NICU. He was born on May 20th at 27 weeks. I'm so, so happy for her. She's a little worried about everyone descending on her now that he's home so I'm trying my best to give some space. There will be plenty of time to nom on his cheeks.
My FIL has been diagnosed with Leukemia. It may be avoidance or something on my part but I'm fairly sure that they caught it early so I'm pretty confident treatment will go well.
It's my birthday! No plans, we celebrated with my family last night and went to the movies. DH is giving me a list of groceries to go get at the store in a little while so he can cook me dinner, he was pretty sore yesterday so I don't see us doing much this weekend. Jax and I will probably lay in the pool while he hangs out inside.
I'm slightly obsessed with the show, Ink Masters which is strange because I don't have any tattoos and don't necessarily like them. There are so many questions running through my head watching this like, "what happens to the people who are voted worst tattoo and are stuck with this thing on them forever, who would even sign up for this, ect." Please incorporate my ass crack into this tatto- no problem! I'm telling you, this is solid entertainment.
My child informed me last night that DH and I kiss too much and that he would like to kiss his bff, M. LOL. These two have been attached at the hip for two years now and are just too much together. Her mom and I are close as well and we booked a trip yesterday to Orlando next for April. We are going this November for my sister's wedding but the airline tickets were so dirt cheap that I couldn't pass it up. The kids are going to totally freak out, I'm so excited.
We're headed to Baltimore today to mess around at the Inner Harbor and go to the aquarium. First, though, I need a lot of coffee. H's snoring has gotten so much worse this summer, and he keeps waking me up around midnight with his buzz saw impression.
I'm taking C to a dentist appointment this morning while H stays at the house with G. The guys are coming back to finish the last piece of the kitchen project!!
After the dentist, I'm going to go raise holy hell at Home Depot. I went in Monday to order a granite countertop for our new cabinet area. I paid for the rough square footage and was told that someone would call by Wednesday to set up an appointment to come to the house and get exact measurements. Well, no one's called. I've now called the store three times and keep getting put to someone's voicemail. I'm going in person today to figure out *why* no one has called and either get someone out today to measure or cancel the order. So annoyed - this is the last thing before the kitchen is done-done and I can AW it in a PIP post!
Oh - and H and I are going out tonight (kid free!!) for a belated birthday dinner. We're going to do a Chef's Tasting menu at a really well known restaurant in the area. SO EXCITED!

H left for his 2 week summer drill this morning. Tonight my brother and I are going to dinner. Since my parents are oot, he begged me to spend the night so I guess I'm having a sleepover lol
I'm waiting for H to get up - no kids last night and we were out late at the Twins game. So much fun.
Today, we have tickets to a senior PGA championship tournament about 45 minutes from here. H got tickets in to the 3M hospitality tent so I want to hurry up and get up there because free bloody Marys all day long!
We have friends coming to visit in a couple hours. They're bringing their 1-yr-old, & I hate to admit I might be more excited to see him than them- whoops!! H took off to "check something at work;" he'd better be back within the hour. Last minute guest prep is not a one person job!! I can't justifiably be annoyed when I'm still in bed, though- waiting for my coffee to kick in!
We're just helping a friend move today (pretty much as payment because she is watching our dog for a few days while we go to Chicago for our anniversary.)
Other than that, probably being bums ask weekend!
ladystardust - that's awesome that your friend's baby is coming home! My brother and SIL had a 28 weeker last summer (after ending up on hospital bed rest at 25 weeks after going into labor early!), and when she finally got to come home (after 93 days!) was awesome! Congrats to your friend and her family!

I'm away with my girlfriends for the weekend, and everyone is still sleeping. I've been up for 2 hours. Why? No plans today. We were going to hit the beach, but the weather is crap.

Today is Double Wedding Day.
Yesterday, for traditional pre-wedding events, the brides operated on a two-hour delay.
Today, I was reprimanded for not knowing that everything must happen an hour earlier than previously discussed. It's 10:09 am and I'm totally dressed in my bridesmaid sari and made up for a wedding that starts at 3.

I need to bring my son's phone into the Apple store for a repair, but it's in his room and he's in there sleeping, buck nekkid. So I sent my son in to go find it. Because really, he might sleep until noon and I really don't want to sit here waiting for him.

DH is going to a concert tonight and he worked last night so he's sleeping. We are laying low til the baby wakes up from his nap and will probably descend upon one set of grandparents or the other

Today we are going to a birthday party at the Disneyland hotel pool. After I need to blow dry and straighten my hair fort shower tomorrow. I really don't want to. I hate using my blow dryer inThe summer but I want nice hair tomorrow :/
I'm bummed this morning because I was supposed to be doing a 5k this morning but had to back out due to my sprained ankle. So I am making a huge ass brunch and inviting my friend over to drink and eat all day.
I just opened my bin of 0-3 month baby stuff and I'm an emotional mess! I can't believe this is the last time I am going to wash, sort, and organize this stuff for a sweet baby girl. So many memories!!
I have been SO GRUMPY all week. I just realized it is probably directly related to not working out. So I just went on a 4 mile run. Hopefully that improves my mood because I have no patience for my children.
Confession, last night we went to Target and Jack was driving me insane. Walking way to close to the front of the cart, grabbing it, dragging it different directions etc. I corrected him a million times but he is so freaking oblivious. I wanted to badly to just ram the cart right into him to teach him a lesson, but I didn't because CPS.
Left my couch for Urgent Care since I can't take a full breath and my inhaler isn't helping. This is my first visit to this Urgent Care facility and it's really nice - comfy chairs, Keurig, TV playing HGTV. At least my 30-45 minute estimated wait will be comfy
