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 and 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: Although I did not get any of my goals from last week done and would still like to get them done this week I am going for some different ones. We are going on vacation next week so I need to get everything ready for that: make treats, pack the kids, and pack myself. I wish when we were on vacation special fairies would come into our house and do a great thorough cleaning for us.
Monday-We stayed home all day and played. My nephew came over in the morning and S played with him the entire time. They played inside and outside, and after my nephew left we just kept on playing.
Tuesday-We are going to try to go to the Mud Hens game tonight. I was going to buy the tickets online but there is a $10.50 service charge so I am just going to drive down in the morning and buy the tickets.
Wednesday-S has a tee ball game in the morning and right after that we are going to the library for Nursery Rhymes Olympics. I have no idea what they are going to do, but S is excited to go to the library.
Thursday-I think today is going to be the big toy markdown at Target so I will be heading out first thing in the morning and hitting all four stores in my area. The farmer’s market is today and we will be looking for fruits to take on vacation with us. I am guessing we will get some more corn, too.
Friday-This is S’s last soccer clinic. Last week they played a little game and he loved it. Hopefully they will play again. They looked like schools of fish just following the ball all over the field.
Saturday-We are packing up the car for vacation so the only thing we have to load in it tomorrow is the perishable food and P’s bed (rock ‘n’ play). We are hoping to go the Monster Truck show at the fair. S’s is so excited and has been asking all week about it and the demolition derby.
Sunday-We are headed off for vacation.
Last Week Recap
I did not get any of my goals done that I wanted from the past week. I am going to do a quick recap because really, Monday is almost over and I am tired. Derby got groomed and she looks fabulous! Last week S did great at his tee ball game and his little soccer clinic. Thursday I made a quick trip to Target while B took S to get his first haircut done. (S has gotten his haircut monthly, by either B or me. We just wanted to try to see if they could do a better job. They can’t!) Saturday we ended up going to B’s family reunion. We had a great time, everyone got to meet P and S had so much fun. Sunday was a recovery day and we hung out at home.
Family Reunion Kid Games
Last Week
My Weekly Goals: I still want to get out S and P’s pictures. P has not been cooperating with me so I can put her down and get the pictures done. I also would like to tackle my scrapbook table and be able to put everything away and get it organized so I can start on P’s scrapbook. I also need to get both kids in their photo albums.
Monday-B is home and today we have no plans. I am hoping B can convince S to go to the barbers and get his hair cut.
Tuesday-I made an appt for Derby to get groomed. She has a bit of a skunk smell to her when she gets wet so I am having them shave her and I mean super short. My hope is to get rid of all the hair that could be holding that smell. I will post pictures after she gets cut.
Wednesday-S has a tee ball game in the morning and that is it. Storytime is over with until school starts again. Since S is starting preschool I am not sure if we are going to sign-up again for storytime.
Thursday-Today is the farmer’s market. It is a huge bummer because this is when I normally buy peaches, but because of the cold weather we had in the winter we won’t be getting any peaches this year. That means I can’t make baby food for P and B won’t get his peach pies which he loves.
Friday-S has his soccer clinic and then if B decides to go to the reunion I may have to pack up a few things to make the long day trip.
Saturday-B is having his bi-annual family reunion. As of the beginning of the week we are not planning on going (his choice), but you never know things always change. I could be singing a different tune come Saturday morning. We also have a Lowe’s build to make the Turbo Taco Truck.
Sunday-We have no plans for today so either we will be recovering from yesterday or just hanging out at home.
