The Weekend- October 17-18

Happy weekend everyone! Is it sunny where you are? If it is go and stand in it for a minute, for me. Maybe if all my readers stand in the sun for one minute for me I'll feel some kind of warmth on this gray, Fall day.

So we had a busy week doing this and that and falling down and this morning we ran to Ikea. I have been wanting to pick LN up a step stool so that she can see what I'm doing at the kitchen counter and help me as much as she can. I also wanted to get her a little tent to play in; somewhere she can get away and read to her baby or just simply take some time away. Let me tell you, she is in love! She ran back and forth from the stool to the tent over and over...who knew a tent and a stool would make a toddler so happy? Why couldn't a tent and a stool make me that happy?

There's not much on the docket for the weekend yet. That's ok by us! Let's see what we've got so far:

Special Saturday morning breakfast tomorrow. I'm trying out quiche recipes for a baby shower I'm co-hosting next month. I'll keep you posted as to how they turn out.
I would guess a walk might be in order since it's supposed to be sunny! Perhaps to the Stone Arch Bridge and around downtown.
The Mr. and I are going to drop off LN with grandma where she's headed to a wedding reception and a sleep-over at grandma's house. Thank goodness for grandparents!
While LN is dancing her heart out the Mr. and I are either headed to St. Cloud to visit some friends or we're sticking around town to do some projects and a little datey date.
Sunday brunch with the grandparents and we'll pick up LN.
Maybe hit up a park since it might be close to sixty degrees AND sunny!
Naps for all (well, Dad and LN...cleaning/computer time for me)
A trip to the pumpkin patch at some point?

What are your plans for this weekend?

Now You See Me, Later You Won't

Although I've been away from this space for quite some time I was surprised to see that people were still reading it. Go me! So, although I am not going to be blogging in this space for much longer, I'm going to leave it up for the time being. If nothing else as a way for people to find me in my next space. Next space you say? Yes, I'm moving. When I started this blog things were very different from what they are now. I thought we were moving abroad much sooner, I was not going to school and there were no definite plans for a second baby. That being said, the last few months I felt like I was not able to really be comfortable in this space. So I'm opting to move someplace else, under a different blog name and start again. I really hope that you will move over with me; I've so enjoyed having you along for the ride! So, sometime soon I will post about my new digs. As soon as I find the time to put something up over...

A Giveaway, A Giveaway!

Well fellow inter-friends, I was going to post today about my experience with the Wii Fit. However, upon looking at my post number I realized that today was post #95. Which means that I get to announce the nifty little giveaway I have planned for post #100. Giveaway you say? Oh yes, just keep reading folks. I'm not going to get too introspective and sentimental today. After all, I have to leave myself something to write for the hundredth post. I'm excited that I made it this far. When I started out I really, really hoped that I'd actually write in this space and feel motivated enough to keep writing here. And I do! I like having something to do everyday that is for me, and really (sorry to disappoint you) only me. We can discuss this at more length next week, when I've actually made it to one hundred. So, the details. I want to know more about who you are. Yes, you! The people that come and read my stuff everyday. Or every week. Heck, if you're just pa...

Lady in the Sky, With Broccoli

We've had a whirlwind, chaotic, hectic, exciting week. It was a week of fixes, car naps, quick meals and heat. Oh, the heat! I finally feel like today we had the chance to tone things down and take a breath. The Little Lady and I were left to our devices for the evening while the Mr. took a much deserved night off. We had a light dinner and then went outside for our favorite pre-bed activity, Bubble Chasing. (Well, she chases, I blow). The following conversation ensued. Laying in the grass: MP: Hey LL, look at all those clouds! LL: Yeah mom, clouds. MP: What do you see up there? I see bunny ears! LL: They just puffy mama. MP: (Humph, this might not work...) LL: Mama, I see Lady! MP: (Getting excited) That's great, what's she doing? LL: Lady in Sky, with Broccoli. I like Broccoli! MP: Well, yes, it does look like broccoli. What else do you see? LL: Poop in a glass. Ha...
