Memorial Day Weekend

We didn't go out of town or plan anything cool, but we had a nice weekend together which is just what I wanted. Saturday we looked at a few more houses. Nothing too enticing. Sunday was spent with church and reading Sunday ads and mostly lounging around. My lesson went well and I made some yummy pasta salad and grilled some shrimp that was pretty tasty. Monday we spent the morning playing with the kids in the backyard. The mornings are still great for playing outside and since we are up by 6 it is no problem getiing back inside before it gets too hot by 10. We spent a good chunk of the day cleaning. The kitchen, living room, Tucker's room, and our bathroom got finished, which is more than has been done for a long time (all at once, anyway). I took a little nap while the kids were napping and decided to hop in the bath for a little me time. Aaaah that felt good. While it lasted. The kids decided they wanted to join me when they woke up.
We needed to take the kids out for some fun, so we did what my Grandpa Jay would have referred to as a "triple treat", three places in one outing. First, dinner at Fuddruckers. Second, playing at Chuck E. Cheese. Third, soft serve from McDonalds. It was such a fun night with the kids!

Glad you had a good weekend and I can't believe you're gonna have a baby in a few weeks!!

Way to carry on the tradition of triple treats. Maybe we should get our dad's to start doing that since its such a perfect Grandpa thing to do while spending some time with grandkids... and then they could make some waffles and mix 8 different juices together

Oh-Grandpa Jay's triple treats-I hope my dad keeps that tradition going with his grandkids-looks like fun.

I want you to know that I am taking notes from you on what I am supposed to do when I have almost 3 kids. You're amazing. I hope by then I will have patience like you. So all the kids in the tub... sounds like fun! Ryan thinks that Jack will be remember things from now on since he claims he can remember a lot at months, so Ryan doesn't walk around naked around Jack. It's pretty funny! Anyway, you are the cutest mommy ever. I'm glad you guys had a good weekend too. Thanks for the tip on the pazooki!
