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-I have two Shutterfly free book codes that expire at the end of the month, so I would like to work on some books.
Monday-B is working, and we are hanging out at home. It is supposed to be semi-nice so we will try to squeeze in some outside time before the rain comes.
Tuesday-Another day of hanging out at home.
Wednesday-Wait for it…….another day of hanging out at home.
Thursday-It is St. Patty’s day, so I am going to make sure the kids wear green but other than that we are again, hanging out at home.
Friday-B is off, so who knows what we are going to do.
Saturday-No plans for the weekend so hanging out at home, as of now.
Sunday-Looks like another day of hanging out at home.
Last Week Recap
I didn’t even touch the basement last week, so no weekly goal accomplishments. We had a fun week with the nice weather outside. It has given P cabin fever and she always wants to be outside weather it is warm, sunny, rainy, or cold.
Monday we hung out at home. It was nice out, and B was off work.
Tuesday we played outside after S got home from school. P took an extra-long nap, so she didn’t come outside until 5:30pm. S had his friend come over for a playdate and they hung Easter eggs on the trees out front. Of course, they played with all the stones in the backyard and both were covered in dirt when they were done. I drilled more holes in plastic eggs and put thread through all of them. S said we didn’t have enough and he wanted more.
Wednesday it was a little cooler outside, but that didn’t stop us from playing. When S got home from school we hung up eggs outside. P got to do it today and loved hanging them up on her own.
Thursday we hung out at home during the day and then B and I went to the Brad Paisley concert in the evening while my sister watched the kids. Of course, P was being P and woke up before we got home and stayed awake until after we got home. She does it when B works over, so why not do it when we are out. She hung out with B and me for about an hour and then went back to sleep no problems.
Friday we hung out at home. I took a late morning nap while B put S on the bus and took P for a walk by himself.
Saturday S had a build at Lowe’s and then B and S went to a toy show in Sylvania. S came home with 10 new Hot Wheel cars. I was not happy about more cars. Like we need 10 more cars to add to the 100s we already have. B and I went to his Christmas party (they rescheduled it twice). This was the make-up party for those who had to work during the actual party back in January. My sister watched the kids and when we got home they were both asleep and stayed asleep all night long.
Sunday B and S went to a train and toy show at Owens Community College. P and I hung out at home and then she went down for a nap. S got invited to go to his “busfriends” house to play. He was beyond excited and I was excited for more quiet time. P took a two hour nap and when she woke up we made cookies. I am going to try decorating the cookies a new way (for me) and if it works out I am going to make a ton of cookies for Easter.
Last Week
My Weekly Goals-I don’t really have any goals for this week, maybe work on the basement some more which I abandoned a few weeks ago.
Monday-It is going to be a nice day outside around 60°. We will probably play outside. Otherwise we are just hanging around the house.
Tuesday-It is going to be almost 70° today so we are spending as much time as possible outside. When S gets off the bus I have a playdate set up with this “busfriend.” S, Baby A, and his friend are going to hang eggs off the trees outside to decorate for Easter.
Wednesday-Not a whole lot going on, just hanging around the house.
Thursday-B took tonight off because we are going to a Brad Paisley concert. The only time we ever go on a date just the two of us is to a concert! It has been almost a year since we have gone out. That was the last time I really let anyone watch P. My brother-in-law did for a few short spurts during soccer practice, but this is going to be hours. Hopefully she won’t cry for my sister.
Friday-Just another day at home.
Saturday-B is taking S for his Monster Truck build at Lowe’s in the morning. (The one I went to last week on accident!) In the evening, if everything went okay on Thursday my sister is going to watch the kids again so we can go to B’s Christmas party. Talk about being late, they had to reschedule it.
Sunday-We are just hanging out at home.
