Re: FRIDAY!
Today: DH is getting out of work early, so we are heading to South Portland to pick up the mattress for Eli's twin bed and go out to dinner.
DH is supposed to work this weekend, but we're hoping he might end up with a day off. Eli and I don't really have any plans. Will go a walk, maybe to the playground and to try out a paint-your-own pottery place (which happens to be next door to a cupcake shop!) Probably do some cooking/baking and grocery shopping too.
Tonight I'm just running a few errands after I get Taylor and then head home to do dishes, clean up and eat supper.
Tomorrow I'm meeting a friend and her son at the Children's Discovery Museum for a few hours, then lunch at Whole Foods. Looking forward to getting some grocery stuff there too. Heading home and Nana is stopping for a visit with Taylor (I hope she will have had a nap in car on the way home!). We'll probably go out to eat.
Sunday is cleaning and groceries. No real plans which is fine with me!
YAY for Friday! My favorite day of the week
No major plans this weekend! Tonight, the girls have dance class. Then, home to relax-there may be a dirty martini involved for me.
Tomorrow my main goal is to pack Halloween stuff up and clean my closet! I will also meal plan & grocery shop at some point. Sunday-more of the same. I'm thinking about possibly painting the bathroom, but that may be too much work for this weekend!
Have a great weekend ladies!
Today - first day of PT! Woohoo!
Rest f the weekend is the same as always lately. Ant wait though becaseu Caroline will be home with Daddy and will hopefully take some good naps
Tomorrow: Grocery shopping, going to Augusta for errands at Lowes/Target. I should probably start my X-Mas shopping because we are doing Thanksgiving with my family this year and need to give everyone their gifts then.
Sunday: Cleaning and projects around the house, I'm going to try and keep it low key.
Happy weekend ladies!
Today/Tonight: Trying my hand at some legit Louisiana cookin'- red beans & rice with cajun sausage and cornmeal breaded catfish, the house smells awesome! DH should be home around 5, and I think we'll take a trek on the walking path while dinner finishes cooking. Probably relax and watch a movie or play cribbage if the babe feels like snoozing.
Tomorrow: No solid plans, I'd like to hit up the farmer's market in Covington to chat with some of the farmers and pick up some vegetables. Maybe a long walk on the lakefront? The weather is finally feeling like fall around here, and I want to be outside all the time!
Sunday: Taking our last box of donations over to Goodwill and some general house stuff. I have a bunch of recipes I want to get back up on my blog (since I haven't posted since way before Will was born!), so I'm thinking I'll send the boys out and work on that in the afternoon on the back porch. All in all, a mellow weekend around here.
The aim of life is to live, and to live means to be aware; joyously, drunkenly, serenely, divinely aware. -Henry Miller

This week has flown by!
Today I went grocery shopping with DH & the babe, made an apple pie, and have plans to make baked mac & cheese for dinner. The rest of the weekend is open for the first time in... ever. DH goes back to work on Tuesday so we've been hanging around the house a lot just enjoying our time together.
ETA: Heh, almost forgot my birthday is on Sunday. No special plans, just hanging out with the boys at home.
Today: Relaxing at home, editing, and prepping for tomorrow.
Tomorrow: Doing my last shoot of 2011. I'm sad it's over, but very happy to have my weekends back for a couple months. Only one more after tomorrow before I'm a mom. YIKES!
Sunday: Editing and spending time with DH before he goes on the road for the week.
Tonight: cribbage with the neighbour-friends. Then maybe just chilling out a bit.
Tomorrow: picking up my beef and pork from A Wee Bit Farm in the morning. Then I'm stopping at my friend's restaurant for a private lunch and to meet one of her best friends from NYC who's up to visit. Then it's a hair cut, some errands in Portland, and then a family birthday dinner at my parents' in OOB.
Sunday: off to Manchester to watch MH get a quilt made for him as a thank you for his service in Iraq. I'm so excited to see him get honoured; he doesn't mention it to people, but he's only alive because an IED that hit his vehicle was a dud and didn't explode correctly (unlike the one that hit the vehicle in front of him in the convoy).
And HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO DANIELLE WITH TWO ELLS!!!
Tonight: Dinner, relaxing, maybe some baking. (I have a ton of apples to use up)
Tomorrow: Doing some things around the house. Cleaning and some projects I need to get done. Going to a meeting with a group of people who want to open a dog park near my town. Running some errands.
Sunday: Going wedding dress shopping with my SIL (I'm going to be a bridesmaid in her wedding next summer). Might try and do my Christmas shopping too. I hate that I'm thinking about Christmas so early. I'm normally a "not until after Thanksgiving" person, but I really don't want to be dealing with shopping so close to my due date, so want to get it done early this year!
We're having a mellow Friday night- fish chowder, wine & tv.
Tomorrow James and I are heading to MA to visit my family and see some visiting relatives up from FL. It will be nice and DH gets some quiet time. (I wish *I* could get a weekend of quiet time, hmph!)
Sunday I'll be down south still an dheading back midafternoon. It will be all about take-out that night. Then dentist appt on Monday morning, oooh boy!
