I am sitting downstairs alone in the quiet of the 7 o'clock hour on sunday morning b/c the dog barking woke me up and I was unable to go back to sleep. So I made me some coffee and some birthday cake (yeah yeah) and now I am catching up online. :)
The last few days have been pretty busy. Lets see...we will start with Thursday. Joey came back over for thursday night, friday, friday night, and went home on Saturday morning. He is always such a great person to be around. Everytime I see him it hurts to see him leave again because there just isnt enough time with him ever. The kids go ga ga when he is here and he leaves them either wound up as tight as they'll go, or wiped out passed out on him! Laci is his baby monkey, she clings to him like one while he plays video games or anything else. I swear she would build a nest on him if she could! Ha!
Friday was a pretty dull day to start. Laci had eaten something bad and gave her a bad case of the runs from about midnight Thursday night to friday night. She was miserable most of the day bc of it. I was tired and cranky and not feeling very special most of the day. Brian came home and didnt seem like there was anything special about the day and I made it quite clear I was ready to eat and go to bed since the day was sucking so bad. (except for the dunkin donuts coffee and donuts brian go us for breakfast, and having Joey there) We decided to get Chili's to go and I placed the order and Brian took the kids to go get it. About 30 mins after he left the door opened and my mom and steve came in with gifts! I was so surprised...I was sitting there a mess in PJs by this time! They got me a gift card, and a picture frame with pics of them and the kids, and a new serial killers book! I was stoked!!! Then Brian showed up. He kissed me and grinned bc he knew the whole time. We sat around and ate and while we were eating the door bell rang and my friend Buffi from across the street had come over and brought me a piece of coconut cake! (my fav!). My mom said she felt bad I didnt have a big cake and Brian had joked about not being allowed to make one from scratch. I said it was fine, and I loved my surprise bday party even without cake. We finished eating and we all were talking and brian started putting up the food so I didnt notice he went into the garage for a few. He came out with a cake and candles! Everyone started singing and Laci sat on my lap to help me blow out the candles. (trick candles to the kid's delight) Buffi left and we all ate some cake. Then my mom and Steve left and then the kids went to bed. Me, Brian and Joey stayed up playing Ghettopoly and he whipped us both bad. Then me and Brian went to bed b/c we had T-ball in the morning. It was a great day after all!!
Saturday we got a late start. Brian left with Christopher and me Joey and Laci went to get gas in my car and breakfast. We got to the Y and the kids were playing great! The temps were so low it was actually chilly!!! I am LOVING these surprise weather days!!! Joey helped with Laci so I could watch the game better and the parents were cheering more which was nice! Next weekend is the last game and we are having a little party afterwards. I am sad its over so fast, but Soccer starts in September and we will be there!
After T-ball Brian took Laci to Cumming, and me and Christopher took Joey home. Then we spent 6 hours school shopping from Target, to the Mall, to the School Box, to Khols to Walmart! Then after aaaaaaall that, he wanted to go get books at the library too! Whew! I was an exhausted blob last night!
We had an issue with the HOA's BYOB pool party last night but a call into the local cops by us and many others nipped it right in the bud! Loves it! HA!!! HA!!! HA!!!
So now, here it is, a quiet Sunday morning. Today is groceries and playing! Thats it! No big errands! I wanna relax with my family in the yard and just have a nice day! It is one week from Brian leaving for Chicago, and 2 weeks from christopher starting Kindergarten. Tonight we start his 2 week countdown school avent calendar that we got from registration back in may. :) So close now! Tomorrow morning I am getting up and taking the kids early to a place called Field's Landing (you should search it....its here in canton ga). I have a feeling they will love it!
Happy Sunday everyone!
XOXOX!
