Tonight - We are taking the boys to my parents house to spend the night with nanna and grandpa. I am hoping even though money is really tight this month due to an unexpected expense M will want to go to dinner just the two of us.
Tomorrow - We get to sleep in! We are going to lounge around and get some laundry done, pick up the house at a leisurely pace etc. We might run some errands that are easier to do without the boys and we might get their new car seats. I finally sold the last thing I needed to on Craigslist so we can do car seats. In the evening we are going to pick up the boys and probably do dinner at my parents if they aren't too exhausted from having the boys.
Sunday - We have a play date with some friends of ours. We will have 5 adults and 6 kids under 2. I am not sure how this will play out but it should be fun! Then we are going to head home in the afternoon and just relax. Might run any errands I didn't do on Saturday. Also thinking of finding a new recipe to try for dinner, that is light and fresh.
Friday - I am leaving work early to take the kids to the dentist. We'll meet L for dinner and then she is going to take the kids home while I go look for yoga pants for our walk/run tomorrow.
Saturday - Out early for out 4k. Leanne and Gray are running while Carter and I walk. If it isn't too late, we are going to go by the kids' school for Beautification Day (parents are volunteering to paint/clean/plant.) That evening we have a new sitter coming over so that L and I can go to a dinner for her company's leadership team. Blah.
Sunday - L is getting a pedicure, we are going to brunch, and then we are spending the day at home doing yard work, finishing cleaning out the garage, etc.

I drove back into town from my ILs' today for my friend's memorial. My wife and son stayed and will ride back tomorrow with my SIL. I have no idea what I'm going to do tonight. I have a feeling I'll want to drink, but not want to because I'm in the TWW. My sister will come over at some point tonight to give me my PIO injection.
I'll try to get some cleaning and things done around the house tomorrow before they get home. We're going to a hockey game tomorrow night.
Today: Painting Apple's new bed, clearing out the garage to make it into a gym, flipping giant tires with DW and BIL, taking A to her dads house, possibly going to Stagecoach!
We're getting 1-year-old pictures done tomorrow afternoon. I got a Groupon so it's $16 for the seating and some number of pictures. We'll probably have dinner at my parents' on Sunday. I have a to-do list of house and job hunting/committee work to do. Need to mow the lawn. Might run away for some me time, although that would be more fun if I had friends here. Need to work on that.

Late to the party...
Well this is a 4-day weekend for my wife and me, and it's rare that we get 4 days off together in a row when we're not actually on vacation (she works retail). We have home improvement plans, yard work plans, fun plans...and what do I do but come down with a nasty chest cold. I feel awful. In addition to the sore throat/pressure in my ears/phlegminess/fatigue/achiness from the cold, my butt muscles are also super sore from PIO shots, and I slept on my neck weird last night so it hurts to move my head. Basically I'm a mess.
She's been cleaning today while I slept and is now out getting groceries. I don't think I'll be doing anything today that can't be done from the bed or couch. I just got a bunch of travel guides out of the library, so I may read those to plan for our upcoming vacation. That will at least feel kind of productive. I'm really hoping that with enough rest, fluids and vitamin C today I can feel better quickly and still salvage some of the weekend (which, by the way, is supposed to be absolutely gorgeous out every day -- very rare for April around here).
Tomorrow somewhat depends on how I feel, but our friend is coming over to help my wife tile our kitchen backsplash, which is long overdue.
If I do start feeling better soon, I am hoping to get out in the garden sometime this weekend. I need to plant more radish and lettuce seeds, weed, and plant carrots. We also have some shrubs we wanted to replace.
And Tuesday (which is part of our weekend) is transfer day!
