Dear Vacation,

While I loved every minute of you (minus the humidity), I am happy to be home. There is something wonderful about being home and getting back to the norm of life. Mostly I missed my bed.

Dear Starbucks,

I am sorry I broke up with you. I just need a break. It's me, not you.

Dear Fatty Foods,

Why do you have to taste so good? I love you and hate you all at the same time.

Dear Griffin,

You were so good on the plane ride. I really have no complaints. Next time though you will have your own seat.

Dear Hailey,

You will be 6 on Monday. 6! You will have to use both hands now when someone asks you how old you are. Wahhh!

#stopgrowing

Dear Husband,

You are my everything and a rockstar!

#iloveyou


Dear Weekend,

Please don't go by too fast. I desperately need you to stick around a little while longer. You will be busy, but fun.

#pleasedon'tgo


Dear Sleep,

I miss you. Griffin is still not sleeping through the night. Hopefully one day? One can still hope, right?

#wishfulthinking


Dear Job,

I am sorry I broke up with you. It's me, not you. I promise.

#kbye

Loving my new Apple watch band. I found it on Amazon HERE. They have other colors, so I might get more in the future. #cuteaccesory

 
 
 
This has become a regular occurrence in our house. He doesn't actually go potty or anything, but he likes sitting on there. So that's what we do. We sit. And wait. One of these days he will go and I rather have him sit and do nothing than be scared of it and want nothing to do with it. So this is a win in my book. #pottytalk
 
 
 
 
We're going to Claim Jumper for their Mother's Day brunch buffet. I'm so excited!! #brunchislife
 
 
 
 
We're going to Helldorado Days tonight for a bit. Wayne has to host something, so we're gonna make it a family night! #helldoradodays
 
 
 
 
 
We have lots of fun stuff to look forward to coming up:
 
1. 14 days until we move
 
2. 26 days until Hailey is a 1st grader
 
3. 27 days until we take our summer trip to Minnesota
 
 
Hope everyone has a great weekend!!

What's Up Wednesday [Four Five Seventeen]

What's Up Wednesday [Four Five Seventeen]

1. What we're eating this week...

So far we've had McDonalds and I made spaghetti with Garlic Bread!! The rest of this week I am not sure as Wayne's brother and family friend is going to be here. So it might be a lot of eating out, etc.

2. What I'm reminiscing about...

We are missing the pool we used to have at our old house. We had such fun times. We are looking to move come Jun-ish and hopefully we can find a home or at least a community with a pool. Fingers crossed.

3. What I'm loving...

That Griffin is getting more communicative and sleeping a bit better now that he's been in a big boy bed for a few months. Doesn't he look so big and old?



This Hubby of mine and all that he does for our family. And our smart little girl that is crushing all her Kindergarten goals as far as sight words, numbers, shapes, reading, writing and so much more.



4. What we've been up to...

Guitar Pull was last Thursday night. SO. MUCH. FUN. I'm hoping to do a separate post about that soon.

We've been to eat at Claim Jumper a few times this month. Their food is so good and we have plans to go there for Easter brunch.

Hailey and I saw Beauty and the Beast which was the BEST EVER and then we went and saw the premier of Boss Baby. Although Boss Baby was really good, NOTHING can compete with my fave movie. Wayne got me this for an early birthday present for my desk.




Wayne's little brother, Andy, and family friend Josh, are here visiting.

5. What I'm dreading...

We are most likely going to be moving again come June-ish. We are not a fan of the neighborhood we are in or the location of the house in the neighborhood. There is a lot of street traffic where we are, i.e. kids trying to jump our fence so they don't have to walk all the way around. Also, we had downsized to a smaller house from where we were at and are missing a little bit of the room we had. So our plan is to start looking for something a little bit bigger.

6. What I'm working on...

Re-vamping this blog. I love blogging and miss it terribly, so I'm trying to get it cleaned up a bit and updated. Hopefully, I can carve out more time for blogging too now that Griffin is older.

7. What I'm excited about...

Our trip to Minnesota in June. My sister, Kate, and Wayne's cousin, Aly, are both graduating this year. So we are making the trip mid-June to attend their Grad Parties. Woohoo!

Hopefully a bigger house. Hopefully with a (community) pool. We'll see.

8. What I'm watching/reading...

I'm so behind on all my shows, as usual. I've been trying to get caught up on all the Chicago series...Chicago Fire, Chicago P.D., Chicago Med and now Chicago Justice. All my other shows are on the back burner.

9. What I'm listening to...

Pretty much everything. I like to listen to pop/top 40 music in the mornings and then switch it to 95.5 The Bull in the afternoons when my Hubby comes on.


10. What I'm wearing...

Lots of jeans. The new firm I am at allows us to dress casual, so I have been wearing lots of jeans these last couple months. Also throwing in leggings and capris now that it has started to get warmer here in Vegas.

11. What I'm doing this weekend...

Well, Sunday is my birthday, so I might be going out on Saturday night and then hopefully breakfast somewhere on Sunday morning. Other than that, pretty low-key

12. What I'm looking forward to next month...

May is one month closer to us moving to (hopefully) a nicer place and one month closer to our Minnesota trip to see family and friends!!

13. What else is new...

Um... we bought a new vehicle!!! Yup, we traded in our Ford Edge for a Ford F150. Wayne has wanted one since December, when he drove my Dad's in Minnesota and he's been obsessed with getting a truck ever since then. Here she is.


Also, I love this quote:


 Have a good week!
