We have been a busy family for the last couple of days and you have been SO good! You smile at people, you don't cry when strangers hold you, and you slept through most of the meeting yesterday! You're growing up little man. We love you!

Hello readers! Sorry for absence on Payday Friday but, as you read above, we have had an intense couple of days. On Thursday I pulled almost 12 break-less hours at work, then came home and had to work super late (with the help of a glass of wine and my amazing husband) on my presentation for my work meeting on Friday. Normally I am not a procrastinator but a kid, a husband, friends, and life in general have made a procrastinator out of me. Friday morning I got my little man up around 530am (after such a loooong day on Thursday this was just torture) so that he could eat at 6, then eat again at 10am so that we could make it to my meeting at 12pm and stay there for what seemed like forever! After the meeting, which he did amazing at, we went to Lacey's house and hung out there for a while. Again, he rocked it! Once we got home, we ate, settled the tummy, and we were right out the door again to go to Target and buy the stuff for Liam's dresser, some formula, and a couple of those impulse items that Target is just wonderful for. We then came home, ate dinner, put the dresser together, almost had heart attacks when we realized it was 1130pm and Liam hadn't been fed yet, fed Liam, then went to bed.
Liam's new dresser! I love the little shark cube!
I am tired.
So, today is Simply Saturday. I have no where to go. I have nothing to do. I get to just relax. Today I will be browsing through applications from people who want to come to my house and watch my son (and try to sift through the homicidal maniacs), fill Liam's new dresser (we didn't quite get to the point of putting clothes in it last night), possibly do some housework (maybe only laundry), play some Skyrim, enjoy my time with my son, and enjoy the snow that is, once again, falling. Today is going to be a wonderful day, damn it! ;)
What are you guys doing today? How are you enjoying this Simply Saturday?
Cute!! I love the little cubes! Enjoy your relaxing Saturday! We're kicking it low-key today too, by golly. :) But I'm excited for MONDAY! :)
ReplyDeleteAgreed!!!! :D :D
DeleteGood work on all the prioritizing and working out the tiny mans work feeding schedule around all the things you had to do!! You rocked it!! Now I understand why you haven't answered your phone....so busy!
ReplyDeleteOMG, I have had those moments too where you realize you forgot to feed the baby, or put them to bed, or....your heart falls out of your stomach, and then you right yourself and realize he wasn't complaining...lol...such a good tiny man.
It says alot about you and the efforts you both are putting into tiny man having a normal environment, that he can be at ease in any environment. You have instilled much confidence in your tiny man. Not an easy task. I have a feeling he is going to be much like you guys in how you are laid back about things. Again he takes his cues about things from you. Way to be getting more and more mobile!
The cubes look awesome! So much more Liam, and the blue and red goes with the room theme. Good job there too!
Wow...applications....its really happening huh? Despite how scary it is that both are going to be determining his future caregiver, I am confident your gut will help you make the right decisions.
You have earned your relaxing Saturday. I do want to hear all about your prep work for your new role.
My Saturday? Coffee...of course. Short trip to Walmart to gather a couple more things for my new way of eating. Had lettuce wraps of chicken salad.4 loads of laundry (in MY washer and dryer). Did my first work out to Turbo Jam (Oh Lord I have so much work to do... including getting reacquainted with coordination!, I am determined to be in good shape for my Scotland trip. Read a little more on line about the Scottish culture. Drank a ton of water, and had so much energy from my work out, I cleaned my room, matched up all 3 million sets of socks (you KNOW its ture), organized my closet a little better, vacuumed the upstairs (love being able to say i have an "upstairs"), brought everything down that need to come down. Got 2 sets of packages ready to ship, tidied up the living room, and just now getting ready to go update my HULU que for some new shows. I have a movie (Dan in Real Life) to watch, and I will be making notes in my outline for my paper I will be working on tomorrow. That's all in my day.
Hey, I kinda like Five Finger Death Punch, and the new Staind. See, with your playlist going I am getting to hear some new music too. =o) (I hear Shinedown is back out on tour with their new album!!)
