Manic Mondays are when I let you know what plans I have for the week. Some weeks I may be very busy where other weeks there may not be any plans. Since I now have two little ones to take care of I am going to post weekly goals for myself to try to hold myself accountable. I have also decided to do a quick recap of what we actually did versus what I thought we were going to do.
This Week
My Weekly Goals
Monday-I need to pick up the kids Halloween pictures from JCPenney and get the Halloween cards out. After S gets off the bus we are going to go Trick or Treating at the businesses in Maumee. Later the Historical Society is having their monthly meeting. This month is when they reveal the results of the Scavenger Hunt. I so want to find out the addresses of those few houses I couldn’t find.
Tuesday-No plans for today and it looks like it may rain.
Wednesday-Today is my mom’s birthday so I guess I will send her a text. I don’t know where she lives so I can’t really send her a card or anything.
Thursday-I don’t have any plans, so maybe I will schedule a playdate for S.
Friday-We are going Trick-or-Treating to the businesses in Perrysburg after P gets up from her morning nap and before S goes to school.
Saturday-B has to work so it will just be the kids and me for Trick-or-Treating. S wants to hand out candy at my dad’s but he also wants to go trick-or-treating with his cousin F. I guess if my dad isn’t working we will go there and hand out candy. If he is working then I guess we will go trick-or-treating with F.
Sunday-The time change is happening so the kids will get up at the same time they always do except it will be an hour early in time. Since Halloween is over the kids and I will work on taking down all the Halloween decorations. We will put up the few Thanksgiving decorations we do and I will wait till next weekend to get out the Christmas decorations.
Last Week Recap
Last week wasn’t as quiet as I thought it was going to be. I still didn’t get caught up on my party reviews, but am still maintaining a clean house. It’s more of a long-term goal now instead of a weekly goal.
Monday, Tuesday, and Wednesday were so nice that we played outside every day waiting for S to get on the bus. P and I went walking after P got on the bus. After S got off the bus we played outside until dinner.
Thursday we hung out at home. Go figure the one day we have something to do in the evening and P didn’t take her afternoon nap. We went to Trunk-or-Treat at St. Rose. P did great as a lobster. Since she doesn’t really talk she would walk up to every trunk and hold her hand out moving her fingers basically saying, “Give me.” S had a great time being a Railroad Crossing. He got to see some old friends.
Friday we hung out at home during the day and B’s cousins came over for dinner. It is so nice to be able to talk to other adults with small children. Two weeks in a row we have done stuff with other adults.
Saturday we went hung out at home in the morning because it was so nice we played outside. After P took her afternoon nap we went to my Aunt and Uncle’s. We went to a fall farm where S got to go through a straw maze, pet farm animals and took a barrel train ride. P rain around like crazy checking out all the pumpkins, animals, and decorations. Afterward we hung out at my Aunt and Uncle’s to play.
Sunday we hung out at home in the morning. In the afternoon, we went to a Halloween parade at a local town. The only things in the parade are decorated floats, and people dressed in costumes. They threw a ton of candy. P constantly kept trying to stick candy in her mouth. She managed to bite through a few wrappers. The rest of the day we hung out at home.
Last Week
It is going to be a super quiet week for us. B is working days and we don’t have any plans.
My Weekly Goals-I really need to get caught up on my party reviews and work on my other reviews.
Monday-P, S and I all have a really bad cold. As long as S feels okay (fingers crossed) he will go to school. P and I are just going to hang out at home and recuperate.
Tuesday-It looks like it may be a semi-warm day. If it is a warm high 60s we will spend most of the day outside.
Wednesday-It is supposed to be 72° so I am hoping we can go out and play maybe a bike ride.
Thursday-I really want to go to Target. If P cooperates with her naps we will got after S gets on the bus. Our church is having their annual Trunk-or-Treat so we will go to that as soon as B gets home from work.
Friday-Another day of no plans. B is on his week off so who knows what we will do.
Saturday-No plans whatsoever this weekend. We could do another Trunk-or-Treat. All depends on the kiddos
Sunday-Probably just hanging out at home.
