I'm getting a mani-pedi today @ 11:30, so I'm taking a half day of work! I then plan on going to buy DH his Father's Day gift.
Tomorrow we are working on getting the nursery finished and baby clothes washed. Oh yeah - I should pack a hospital bag too!

Today: My sister is dropping off my two oldest nieces at my house right after work. Then we'll have dinner and probably just hang out for the rest of the night.
Sat: Depends on the weather. If it rains, we'll probably be taking my nieces to the pool at our gym and then jungle java. If it's nice out we'll be playing outside and maybe going to Liberty Fest. Hopefully the rain will hold for at least for the fireworks at night.
Sun: Hang out w/ the nieces some more - maybe go to a playground. Then Father's Day with my side in the afternoon & sending the kiddos back home with their mom & dad.
Yay! I can't imagine how excited they'll be!

that is so exciting!! you'll have to report on how that went.

tomorrow - DH is going on a charter fishing trip all day so I might do some shopping, who knows. The weather is going to be crappy I think so if that's the case i may just stay home and relax for the day
sunday - who knows, probably going to IL's or out to brunch or something. If it's not too rainy, i will also go out to the cemetary to say hi to my dad and put some flowers or something out there.

Today: packing for stupid trip to GR tomorrow
Saturday: stupid trip to GR to visit MIL. We were originally planning on going to GR to visit FIL (they're divorced) but his plans changed so we weren't going to go (yay, I'm all about being a home body since traveling with DD is such a process). Well yesterday MIL decides she'll go to GR (they live in Milwaukee) and now we have to go again.
Sunday: come home from GR (hopefully early in the day) and spend the day with DH and DD.
I can't wait for next week's TGIF when I am actually excited about the weekend, one of my besties and her H and DS are coming to visit from Chicago.
Today: (while WFH) - work out, do laundry, give the dog a bath
Tonight: grill turkey burgers, drink wine, relax outside
Tomorrow: pack up and head to Milford to drop the dog off at the in-laws. Then going to Keith's best friend's brother's grad party in Royal Oak.
Sunday: hanging out with my dad and sis for Father's Day. Going to Toby Keith's bar at GLC, shopping a little, maybe putt-putt and ice cream after
DH is going to NASCAR and I will drive his drunk_ass back home that night after the race.
?? Baby P: Born 05.23.12 ??

I have big plans on reorganizing the kitchen. I'm just not happy with the way it is right now.
Father's Day...taking FIL out to breakfast, then off to my parents' house.
I am going to my MIL's after work since I wasnt allowed to take the day off
Tomorrow- my BIL, SIL & nephew are coming in from TN so we're spending the day with them

And I have to bake cupcakes & make the cake pops tonight & tomorrow
Today: We spent the morning and early afternoon at the zoo, then they closed and kicked us out. Kids are napping and I should be doing some cleaning.
Tomorrow: We're going to try to do breakfast with Clifford and some other characters at Liberty Fest (anyone going?) and spend some time there. I'm thinking I'll try to keep the kids up late to go see fireworks, maybe. Dh is going to Cleveland to see his friend.
Sunday: I was going to do some fun stuff, but since dh won't be here much of the day, we may just hang out/go to Liberty Fest if we need something to do.
