Plans for the Weekend?
What are you up to this weekend? Anyone doing anything special for New Years?!
Here comes our Pumpkin!
Re: Plans for the Weekend?
Tonight - Staying home, relaxing
Saturday - No plans, possibly a run to Target in the afternoon. Evening will be dinner, put the baby to bed, gym then hoping I can stay up until 12!
Sunday - Gym, football and hanging at home. This will be a very low key weekend for us and I don't mind one bit!!
Tonight: Making pizza and relaxing with DH. We had our anatomy scan today and now that we know what we are having we need to go over our name list again!
Tomorrow/Sunday: Stuff around the house, we should probably finish painting the kitchen since the rest of it is 99% done.
Monday: DH has off and it is my last day of school vacation - We are going to drive to Bangor so I can enjoy some newborn snuggles (visiting 2 of my college friends who both had babies on the 20th).
Today has been a whole lot of nothing!! I'm glad for that. I took the tree down yesterday and cleaned up the living room and dining room. T is having a 3+hour nap (with no pacifier! yay) and I'm looking up flights to FL.
Tomorrow: Christmas at my parents' house. Then visiting with some friends and birthday dinner with some other friends....all in Bangor. It will be a late night for sure.
Sunday: hopefully just cleaning and groceries.
Monday: Happy Birthday to me! Too bad I'm just staying home and doing nothing! DH is working since he'll have to take Wednesday off for a memorial service for my grandfather (who passed this past Tuesday)
How exciting! I LOVED picking out names, my DH not so much.
Happy early Birthday!
I'm so sorry for your loss.
We don't have anything too exciting planned. We are headed over to my aunt and uncles tomorrow night to have chinese and play some board games for NYE and on Sunday we have Christmas with some of my family. Monday I will be doing some cleaning and hopefully some relaxing. I am really looking forward to a new year.
I hope everyone has a safe and happy new year!
Tonight: packing!
Tomorrow: flying back to Boston, driving home, watching DD open all the gifts Santa left behind, not enjoying the bottle of champagne I have in my fridge at home for NYE.
Sunday: rest, recover, and unpack from our trip
Monday: go to the ILs for Christmas part 3, open gifts, then on to DH's aunt & uncle's house for Christmas part 3.5, more food (I got volunteered in absentia to bring an appetizer) and a gift exchange.
Tonight: At my parents' place in MA with James. I'm slacking off as a parent while drinking a margarita (whoo boy, Mom knows how to make 'em- I learned from the best!) We will get take out and watch my "How to Train a Dragon" DVD I got for Christmas
Tomorrow: Heading home in the midmorning, going to the grocery store when I get back, then hosting Jess D. and the fam until the kids pass out from exhaustion!
Sunday: I dunno... probably taking down the tree and you know, stuff.
(No, seriously, Mom makes a serious margarita. I think I'm getting a little loopy here on tequila and Triple Sec.)
We went out for chinese for dinner tonight with the nana's. Marcus just pooped in the tub, and it's all he can talk about for the rest of the night - exciting Friday night! We're going to lay low and hang close to home this weekend. I'm going to try slapping some undies on the kid and see what happens. He is really hesitant to sit on the potty, but I'm curious what he'll do when he feels he's wet. We'll see! I'm thinking I want to get some lobsters and artichokes and eat that for dinner tomorrow...I guess butter is sounding good to me
Tonight is a quiet evening at home.
Saturday - dropping the boys off at my MIL for the night and then heading to NH for a friends annual NYE party.
Sunday - coming home early, picking the boys up, laundry and maybe ordering take out.
Today - errands etc
Rest of the weekend is very lowkey. It's been crazy around here and we've been. Battling colds so we're happy to have nothing going on. May rearrange the basement now that we have new shelves so we can eventually open up the livingroom upstairs dice it's currently a giant finished attic with a million boxes. Although I dread that since it means furniture, tv and heating it $$$
No NYE plans. Heck I was going to make some new, fun foods an thought it was Sunday, got new years day mixed up with NYE
Not much today, we went to Portland to do some returns, Target to pick up some necessities... the boys had speech and we continued undy bootcamp.
Tomorrow: probably more undy bootcamp and then Chinese and movies with the ILs after the boys go to bed tomrrow night... I also need to vacuum the upstairs now that we can actually see the floors again...
Sunday: no plans I don't think
Monday: last day of vacation, maybe head over to the Dover Children's Museum and get our pass that my parents bought us for Christmas... its the one that is good for a whole list of children's museums and science centers!
Hope it's going better for you than for us, it's a lot busier than I would have expected!
I'm at work until 10:30 tonight, DH is supposed to have crab rangoon dip in the oven when I get home and I'm going to whip up a quick fondue to watch the ball drop. Tomorrow a friend of ours is coming up from MA to do one last Christmas exchange! Then we can finally put this holiday to bed.
That sounds soo yummy!!!
