TGIF!!!!
Re: Weekend Plans?
The first full week after the holidays is such a killer!
Tritto TGIF!!! Ugh!
Tonight: I have some party prep to do while DH is at poker. Then I plan on sitting down and watching last night's Scandal before falling asleep early.
Tomorrow: dad's surprise birthday party. I'm so excited!
Sunday: de-Christmas-ing. Don't judge.
We don't have much going on other than brunch with my parents and sibs for my 30th and my dad's 60th bdays. I am super excited for this - I LOVE brunch. I hope DD cooperates so I can actually eat.
We'll probably continue un-decorating/cleaning, laundry, do some gift returns. I also need to run to the post office and finish up DD's Baptism invites.

Finally tAking m to the train museum for his birthday. Last week was busted because he was so sick.
Dont be jealous of my plans ladies.
Sat: De-Christmasing the house--thankfully, it will be in the 60s tomorrow so it will be nice weather to remove the outdoor stuff.
Sun: early run in the morning and then meet friends for Sly Fox 113 day.
Nothing tonight. Probably lay on the couch.
Tomorrow we have an appt in the morning to finalize and order the kitchen cabinets. I'm pumped and slightly scared about all the things that need to get done in 4 weeks prior to their arrival. Then I have to babysit my niece at night.
Sunday I'm going to attempt to sand the dresser for the nursery so I can paint it and be done with it!
My little nuggets
Well, if the plague finally leaves me I have so much I want to accomplish since it's been at least a month since I could do anything remotely for me.
We need to de-Christmas the outside of our house, I need to pack away my summer clothes (and probably all the clothes that will no longer be fitting me for a while aka my whole closet), and start to clear out what will be 'the nursery' which is currently full of clothes that I probably just need to get rid of.
Other than that, I'd like to have some QT with the hubby maybe doing something fun in the city or just a nice dinner out since we had to cancel his birthday dinner ressi's at Amada for 2 weeks running now.
tonight dinner and food shopping then movies with the girls
tomorrow, nothing really, clean a little
sunday, baby shower
Tonight, I have a date with my mom & youngest sister. We have tickets for the Scottish bagpipes/music concert at the Kimmel center.
Tomorrow, my nephew is sleeping over. He's 2 1/2, so our wild night will likely consist of pizza and a movie.
Sunday, I wanted to take him to see his first movie in a theater but the only G movie is Monsters, Inc 3D and I highly doubt he'll keep the glasses on. His mom swears that bowling is a good idea, but I don't know if I'm buying that.
I'd rather take m bowling then a movie.
Tonight I'm hanging at my parents' house with the kids and dogs, since DH is working late at a swim meet.
Tomorrow is swim lessons with DD, then going to a friend's new house to see the house, meet their new baby, and catch up.
Sunday for once is NO PLANS. I am ridiculously excited, though I do have errands that I will probably end up trying to do, and DH needs to patch something in our basement due to a leak last week.
We have a lowkey weekend which is nice for once.
Tonight: I feel like death so I'm sleeping.
Tomorrow: Car is getting worked on. We have some trailing inside de-Christmasing to do. Otherwise probably still sleeping the death away.
Sunday: Plan to head to Ocean City and walk on the boardwalk as long as I'm feeling okay. I'd like to get outside this weekend.
Bowling it is. Between the bumper rails and the dinosaur bowl slide, she swears he enjoys it. <I think I'm just worried that I'll turn around for a split second, and he'll drop the ball on his foot

Everyone's probably gone. Hello? (hellohellohellohello)
Anyway, tomorrow going to NJ. Brunch with some friends I met from the MM board, then off to my parents house. They are getting their house ready to sell so I have to go through anything I have there. Lots of throwing things out.
Sunday I will either be continuing the purge of the house in NJ or at home, taking down the Christmas and Hanukkah decorations and cooking.
