Weekend Wrap-Up: I Slept A Lot Edition :)

Happy Monday, friends!!!
Well - if you follow me on Instagram you probably know that on Friday I finally threw up my white flag and headed to Care Now... but only after waking up with what looked like pink eye! EWWWW!

 I dropped Luke off at school, ran off some copies for my sub and made my way to Care Now.  It turns out that I had a sinus infection, upper respiratory infection, laryngitis and pink eye.  So much for my "power through" mentality :)  I dropped off my prescriptions and was home and asleep by 9:30.  Sweet, sweet Dave picked up my antibiotics and steroids, brought them home to me and apparently I took them (I really don't remember) and the next thing I knew Mason was jumping on my bed and it was 4:30 p.m.  Seriously.  


Friday night Dave was working and so the kids and I did dinner, baths and jammies - and then Griffin spent a good 5 minutes showing the baby in the mirror her clean teeth :)  #mademyday


The boys and I laid in bed for snuggles and movie time and I was out like a light before 8:30 p.m.

I woke up after 9 a.m. on Saturday (apparently I needed some rest!) and Dave put me on house arrest (my tendency is to start going 100 mph as soon as I feel good again - and then crashing HARD).  He and Griffin ran some errands...


... and the boys played next door with Aiden :)  Aiden's grandma walked them home and I couldn't help but laugh at how messy they were.  My mom always said that how messy you are is directly proportional to how much fun you had.... so I'd say they had a blast :)

What should you do after getting clean in the tub??? Eat a blue cupcake, duh! :) #yesmom


After lunch the boys walked down the street to Gibi and Haha's house.  WHEN did they get this big?!?!?!

Dave brought me a peach tea lemonade (!!!) and I decided it was time to eat for the first time in two days.  #sickgirlproblems

While the boys were having the best time playing, Griffin and I tried on Fall clothes.  Considering that the next 10 days are all forecast to be 100+ degrees I'd say it was a timely choice of activity :) #not

Sunday morning everyone was up bright and early (like PRE SIX AM!!!) due to a big thunderstorm rolling through - and we decided to keep my germs at home and played hooky from church.

In the afternoon we headed to a gender reveal party for Dave's cousin Justin and his wife Mallory.  My boys were all on Team Blue...

and G and I were ALL About the pink! (duh!)


Waiting to open the "reveal box"...

Love these kind of shots :)

 EEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEKKKKK!!!!
Love her reaction!!!  PINK! PINK! PINK!

Claps for Baby Girl Griffin!!!
(So.... Justin is Dave's moms brothers son.... so their last name is Griffin.... sorry - that was probably confusing.  But we named Griffin after Dave's maternal grandparents.  Make sense???)

Team Pink!
(and a photobomb!)
The rest of the afternoon we spent napping, lesson planning and folding laundry.  Glamorous, huh? :)

I'm hoping that this week is boring and uneventful.  I'm praying for lots of rest and "normal".

Lots of y'all asked for a classroom tour, so I'm attempting to pull that together for tomorrow as well!  I've shown you my house - so it's only fitting that you see where I spend the majority of my time, right? 

Hope y'all have a happy and healthy Monday!

  13. I'm so sorry to bug you with this type of question, but would you mind telling me what size Griffin is wearing in the Lovely Garden Leggings? I like that they are full length on her and not cropped. My daughter is about the same size as Griffin. I hope you feel better soon!
