The One with the Friday's Letters

I am linking up with Ashley over at The Sweet Season for Friday's Letters.

 

Dear Hubs,

Thanks for loving me and putting up with my occasional grumpus-ness.  You mean the world to me and I couldn't ask for a better man to share this life with.  I am very much looking forward to this three-day weekend with you and the boys.

Dear Max,

I love you to pieces crazy dog, but you need to stop the jealous stealing of everything that doesn't belong to you.  I know you don't get nearly as much attention since L arrived, but we still love you and you need to behave!

Dear New Students,

Please be a good group of kids and take it easy on your teacher who will really be struggling to stay focused on teaching while her baby is at home.  I promise to do my best to be an awesome teacher this year if you promise to try your best too.

Dear Weather,

Please cooperate and don't be too shitty this weekend.  I am looking forward to some outside time at some point.

Dear Mom,

Thanks for joining this crazy household and taking care of Liam while we work.  I know it won't be the easiest transition living with your control freak of a daughter but we are so happy and blessed that you can do this for us.

Dear Liam,

You are the best baby in the world.  You make me laugh and smile all day long.  Now please take a nap that lasts longer than 32 minutes so Mommy can maybe catch up on some sleep today.  K, thanks!

Link up with Ashley and post your Friday's Letters.

Enjoy the long weekend!

The One with the GBU

This morning, I am linking up with Kati at Incorporating Color and Kate at Classy Living for a Monday post called "The Good, The Bad, and the Ugly."

The Good: This weekend was pretty quiet and we spent some quality time just hanging around.  My mom is here again visiting so I was able to get some stuff done around the house and went grocery shopping (exciting I know).  The weather was gorgeous yesterday and Liam got to go for a great walk in his stroller.

This is from last week, but Liam loves being outside.  

That's our fire pit above Liam's head btw...we have yet to light it this summer which is highly unusual for us.

The Bad: Uh, can we talk about the weather on Friday and early Saturday?  What a disgusting dumping of rain.  I mean I know we needed some rain, but did it have to come down in sheets?  We were stuck in the house all day on Friday.  Luckily it cleared up for some time outside on Saturday.

The Ugly: I started getting organized for our big Chicago trip next week.  Oh lawd, how will we fit it all?  Why did no one tell me a kid needs eleventy jillion things to leave the house?  I mean I should have known considering what is packed in the diaper bag, but holy bananas we have so much stuff to bring with us.  And that doesn't even begin to cover all the things I am going to need to be ready for this wedding.  I need one of those top of the car turtle shell thingys.  And it doesn't help that I have no where to organize all the stuff I am putting aside...it's all in Liam's crib right now.  Keep you posted on how the packing goes.  I am going to have some serious space-managmatizing to do in my car.

How was your weekend?  Link up and tell us all about it.

Liam wants to hear about it...
