This is my new nap time. Screaming. Messing. and total mayhem. I am not sure I am going to survive. I am trying to train them to watch a movie and not get up. Is that to much to ask for? 30 min-1hr of quiet time? A break from messing? It's not going to well...
Sorry I have been MIA. I have been swamped. Listing and preparing my ebay is a huge time sucker. You can view my remaining listings here: EBAY . I will be listing more (the second set of the twins clothes - many already sold this time around). Ebay put me behind on everything else in my life (laundry,cleaning, etc). I have tons to do to prepare to enjoy this...
Right now I am feeling so stressed, you know how that goes. I wish it wasn't so much work to get our family packed and ready to go. So much to do so little time.
If you were given these to drive car would you know what to do with them? Would you know to find a hole down by your foot for them to go in? Would you know what to do when the car did not start? Would you know that you could take them out, lock the car and it would still be on? Would you know that the car could be started without those pictured keys and just by pushing the button? High tech devices are very confusing.
By the way I tested the key only needs to be near the car for you to be able to start it, not in the provided hole. Oh and the on and off button is the master. You can actually get out of the car, lock the doors and go away and it will stay on. If you don't hit the off button or notice there even is one. Oh and the car itself... so quiet you can't hear its on even when you try. Craziness.
Last weekend we headed "home" (where I grew up is always home) for a quick weekend getaway...
It was my mother in laws birthday so it was the perfect excuse to celebrate.
We went to the spa. A real treat and something I have never done. I loved every minute. Not sure how some women are comfortable enough to go naked everywhere but to each her own.
We ate at all my favorite spots. Shopped all my favorite stores. You may notice I already cheated on my first hand bag and got another (the deal was WAY too good to pass up). Isn't she cute?
We saw two movies and really enjoyed warm weather.
My favorite vacations end with there being another one planned (remember my upcoming cruise). Somehow it helps to know its not the end. Not to mention I was DYING to so my cute kiddies. I can't wait to take my kids to Mexico. I have to give Alan a lot of credit (and Grandpa) without him I wouldn't get the chance to play like this. It really renews me to get a little break.
1-I have the kind of job when I go on vacation my work piles up. My week has been busy playing catch up.
2-Sydney decided that her new name is "Laura". Flattering huh. Except she was serious. She was sad when her preschool teacher would not call her that.
3-We got a new garage door, that actually closes. Nice feature eh?
4-Coming home to freezing temps, snow and thick ice is hard. After being in warm weather for the weekend. It made me covet spring.
5-Thank goodness we are going on a cruise to Mexico in just a few weeks!
6-Ironing,photographing and preparing to list all my twins spring/summer clothing.
7-Saw Taken and New Kid in town while on vacation. Loved Taken. Liked New kid in town.
8-Got a new cell phone. Love it. Now I have been working on getting people on verizon (lol) so I have more people that are free.
9- I am loving the text keyboard.
10-I have never been so happy to be sleeping in my own bed.
11- or to snuggle my little girlies.
12- or to just be home.
13- Really appreciating Alan these days. I think a "girls weekend" will do that to you.
After returning from a weekend of blue sky and sunshine its REALLY hard to come home to snow and ice. I just hate it.... I thought it would be a good time to share this little tip (more on my trip to follow)...
Because I like wearing my cute shoes (or have to because my jeans would be too long without them)...
Because it there is too much snow and ice around here...
Because my driveway is steep and could kill you...
I love these you can get them here REI
These babies can actually keep you standing on ice on a hill. They are amazing. You will not be disapointed.
