FRIDAY!!
TGIF times a million billion! This has been the worst work week ever ... and that is saying a lot, lol. I am so so glad it's almost the weekend.
Weekend plans? I'll start!
Tonight: I want to go out for dinner or go bowling or something, but we haven't talked about it yet. We'll see.
Tomorrow: Late morning/early afternoon - lunch and shopping in Freeport with my girl friends. Afternoon - Irish wake for my friend's dad who passed away right before Christmas. I'm a little nervous but want to pay my respects, my friend is like an extra dad to me. Evening - toddler time.
Sunday: Early morning yoga with my friend who is in teacher training! Midday - driving to Bangor with Matt to pick up a phone he's buying. Afternoon/evening - Super Bowl party at my parents' house, Matt & E are coming with me for at least part of it.
Re: FRIDAY!!
Tonight: MH has a happy hour. I've had a bunch of happy hours myself the last couple of weeks so I think I'll hang around at home until he's done. Then maybe we'll make a fire or watch a movie.
Tomorrow: Washington Auto Show. MH will be drooling over the audis, Mercedes and BMWs. I'll be bringing my checklist of candidates to replace our 16-year-old Impreza and focusing on those. My aunt and uncle are coming over tomorrow night to see the progress on the kitchen and then take us out to dinner for MH's birthday.
Sunday: clean and errands in the morning. Superbowl and Downton Abbey in the evening. We have to come to agreement if we are switching from Superbowl to Downton or postponing Downton until Monday night.
tonight: my mom is picking DD up at daycare and we are having dinner together. She's bringing sushi with her.
tomorrow: spending the day with my 2 bffs and our babies
sunday: superbowl! not sure what else is on our plate.
Today - Dealing with a crabby baby, poor thing is getting 3 teeth. Tonight - gym time!!
Saturday - A friend's son is turning 3 so we will be going to his party. I'll be heading to the gym at some point then hoping to start on some Pinterest inspired decorations for Savannah's B-day party!
Sunday - Watching the game at home. MH & I got our wish -- NYG & Pats Superbowl. Please, please Patriots pull out a win so I can shut MH up until next season!!!
!!!!GO PATRIOTS!!!!
Oh. Thank. God. This has been the longest stinking week ever.
This weekend is relatively uneventful. My personal goal is to go to the gym every day this weekend since I have been horrible about it and I want to bounce back as quick as possible after I birth this turkey. Beyond that, I have to get our tax crud in order. And we're supposedly going to a friend's house on Sunday for the game.
Tonight we are going to see our tax guy and hoping for a nice refund!
Tomorrow we are taking Eli tubing! Well DH will be tubing with him and I'll be watching/taking pictures/drinking cocoa.
Then a low key afternoon and evening at home.
Sunday my friend is coming over to take some maternity/family photos, then I'll be making some treats (ribs, buffalo dip, cookie dough dip) and watching the game.
Tonight: DH and I have a double date set with a co-worker of his and her hubby for dinner at Hugo's...I'm soooo excited! This will also be one of first challenges at keeping my pregnancy a secret, since I'm normally not one to turn down a drink - we'll see how it goes! I don't think I realized how often I drank until now
Tomorrow: Fingers, toes and eyes crossed that I don't have to work tomorrow. I'm the worst, but we've been lacking in Friday night reservations lately, so I was off last Saturday, which was awesome and, as of now, will be off tomorrow. I know I should be wishing for work, but I hate having to work all weekend. So, no real plans because I'm not sure what my deal is, but hoping to be home.
Sunday: Work and then watching the Super Bowl. We don't have any official plans, but our neighbors are huge football fans, so we may just get together with them last minute to watch.
Oooh, we are thinking of going there next week ... please report back!!
GL with the not drinking thing 
I forgot to add ... tomorrow is our one year anniversary (of dating...lol) YAY!!
FRIDAYFRIDAYFRIDAY YESSSSSS!
Today/Tonight: Will & I skipped out on playgroup since he was wiped out from our trip to Biloxi yesterday, so we're just relaxing at home and catching up on some stuff around here. Probably a mellow night- making pizza when Kyle gets home, watching a movie and a little wine.
Tomorrow: The weather is supposed to be pretty crummy, so I think we'll just work on stuff around the house. DH is building an entryway seat/chest, so he's hoping to finish work on it and we're going to try to get over to H&R Block to submit our tax paperwork. Maybe out for a bite at the new Mexican restaurant we found?
Sunday: Attending our first service at the UU Church here on the Northshore, a little brunch and FOOTBALL TIME!!! I'm so excited, I can't even handle it. Our house divided will certainly have its faith tested, and I will more than likely be watching from behind the safety of my pillowfort. GO PATS!!!

Phew! I'm tired FROM Friday!
This morning we closed on our re-fi and met with a lawyer regarding our Will etc. All before 9am. Then I hit Shaw's and did a little extreme couponing
Came home and worked, made lunch and shot that for my blog. Some how, DD has slept for over 2 hours at this point so I'm thankful. I still haven't figured out what I'm doing for dinner and need to find some time to get a work out in. Tonight. Quiet I hope!
Tomorrow- Dropping DD off so we can purchase some living room furniture for our formal living room
Sunday - Gym, shopping and then getting our cooking on for the game!
Someone on my fb posted a link to this recipe the other day and I thought I would try it out this weekend...it sounds so good!
Tonight-Headed over to UMF for a fund raiser concert for the non-profit my friend works for. The theme is classic Hollywood and they encourage people to dress up so we are getting all fancy...it should be fun.
The rest of the weekend is up in the air. I am house/dog sitting my mom's house all week while she is in Mexico (jealous!) so I will probably leave my house Sunday at 1/2 time and head to her house for the night.
Tonight: Takeout and relaxation.
Tomorrow: Grocery shopping, making the final decision on flooring for the nursery, other errands. My DZ little sister, little cousin, and other friend from college are coming down for an afternoon visit
Sunday: House stuff, laundry, projects for Piglet.
Tonight: finishing up the taxes so we can send out for the return and pay the state (booO!!!) then maybe a movie
Tomorrow: the boys (all 3) have hair cuts in Gray at 9AM so we will be boogying out of the house early and then heading to the Children's Museum for a bit when they are done with hair cuts.. maybe a trip to Trader Joe's to pick up Super Bowl snacks
Sunday: hanging with the boys while MIL and FIL are out of town then watching the game!
Tonight I'm on my own, DH is doing a double,
Tomorrow: lounging around the house, have to run to town to get a new shovel b/c DH broke ours the last snowstorm, I also need to make a trip to mardens & walmart & stop at H&R Block to sign off on our taxes
Sunday, I'm making DH be on baby duty so I can sleep in, then we're going to my BIL's for the superbowl (I'm probably going to get shot for this, but GO Giants!!)
Monday = MY LAST DAY OF WORK!!!! I can't freaking wait until it is over!!
Congratulations! I'm so jealous!
