Re: Freakin' Weekend - Plans?
TWO WEEK SPRING BREAK WOOOOOOOOOOO!!!! And after only getting 1 snow day and one other day off between Christmas and now, the students and teachers need it so bad. Things have been cuckoo.
We're putting the pedal to the metal this afternoon and going to Detroit. H's cousin and his fiancee are having their bachelor/bachelorette parties. His is at a strip club. Hers is at a drag show. I'm so excited.
M said we could do whatever I wanted tonight - so we're having frozen pizza and going shopping for gifts for all the bridal showers I have coming up. I'm pumped.
Saturday there is another mass for FIL. Sunday we're celebrating my sister's birthday.
Kate's Recipe Box || Relatively Bookish
Tonight -Dinner with my ILs because they are watching D today.
Tomorrow - going to the mothers os multiples yard sale to get some stuff for D. Then weather permitting, a trip to the zoo. Finished off by dinner with my BFF
Sunday - no telling.
Today - work as normal, dinner and hanging out at home while M preps for a school presentarion for Saturday
Saturday - I have.a bridal showe I'm supposed to help set up. I really don't want to, but I already agreed. Then probably date night with M.
Sunday - church and sleeping
Today - I have to clean and get the house in order, dinner at home, some laundry, and then packing and relaxing.
Saturday - I have Laura's baby shower to go to! T will be home entertaining one of our close friends and her mom who are both coming into the area from OOT and stopping by for a quick visit. I need to put out some snacks for them before I head to the shower. Then normal house chores and more packing, and vigil mass.
Sunday - packing, getting ready for our trip, relaxing.
Today: dr for B-her GERD is out of control, children's museum and dinner at home (my mom got in yesterday so we are doing some fun things with her!)
Tomorrow: zoo, S and I are going out sans kids with some friends for dinner
Sunday: B's baptism, doing some outside work around the house
Nothing horribly exciting going on here.
- Pack my hospital bag/diaper bag
- fold laundry/clean house
- Meet with our doula
After that's done we'll see how much more I feel like doing, if I get more done it'll be because it's baby things that are motivating me to do them.
- sew binding on crib quilt
- finish painting tree on wall in baby room
- Do some more organizing.

My Blog
Yay!' looking forward to seeing you!!!
I have about 40 papers to grade for online classes. Blah! I think I'll tackle about half of them tonight. Hoping to get out for dinner too with the hubs.
Sunday is a craft day with my mom. We're heading out to find some fabric for a few projects that I want to get started on soon. I can't wait!
Tonight- We are staying in, getting some take-out and probably watching basketball.
Tomorrow- Hopefully just about finishing our bathroom project, eeek! Finally! Tomorrow night I was hoping some friends were going to come over to hang out and watch more bball, but one couple can't make it (for a silly reason if you ask me...) and I haven't heard back from the other one yet, but they are packing to move to their new house in a few weeks, so I don't know if they'll be coming either. Hopefully they'll want a nice break!
Sunday- My parents, sister, and her bf are coming to our house to check out our bathroom and have lunch.
Tonight: Going to my Sister's house because we're frying fish and shrimp. yay!
Tomorrow: In the morning we are going to my cousins t-ball game. They are twins and the whole team is related to me (not kidding, there's 11 of them) so I'm so excited to watch them. After is an easter festival thing for the kids and even thuogh Lucas is too small we are still taking him because Landon and my cousins are going. We are going to a friends son's 2nd birthday party in the evening so we are pretty much busy on Saturday.
Sunday: baptizing Lucas and having a party afterwards. We were expecting 40 people but now it looks more like 60-70 ( i have a huge familly and E's family is all coming SHOCKING!) so we need to get more paper goods.
Tonight: Cleaning
Tomorrow: My Maryland baby shower! then hanging out with DH
Sunday: Baby Care class and packing for INDY!!!!
I'm that excited!!
I'm working Saturday then we're going grocery shopping. Sunday we're doing our date day for the month!
Then making a list of everything I need to get done before Saturday and making plans to hang out with Laura! 
Work has just exploded on me. I had a nice, perfect balance going for a couple of months and now I just can't keep up... so much more put on us at the inner-city charter school... definitely missing traditional school district work load. I will be spending most of the weekend working but hoping for one ray of sunshine:
Saturday: Hooopefully, seeing a special "someone"; Start my formal lesson plan (8-10 pg lesson plan due to my boss on Wed for my formal observation) and at least try to vacuum (dogs shedding their slightly California winter coat), maybe a little baking
Sunday: Church, more formal lesson plan, make a couple power points for Monday and do some paperwork for work as well as go shopping for a picnic we are having at school on Monday....
How oh how will I get it all done? Who wants to fly to California and help?!
