THE LOVELY CRAZY

Let's just say that that the mr and I had a long ass week. 7 days (and some nights) of 2 of the coolest littles. We are pretty f*ing tired, but what a fun week we had.

Our week of advetures included going to Montpelier and having a picnic/stick fight on the State building lawn. Thrift store shopping and bean and flower picking at the farm. We watched a field hockey game and picked up my sister from summer camp. There was also a lot of hiking, river wadding, and rock hunting. Watercolors and crayons have been used on a daily bases and every clean sheet was used to make a sleeping fort up in the loft. And the food. The amount of food these kids can consume is impressive. I made pancakes more this week then I have in the past year (I shit you not, Judah, the little guy, he at 9!!! in one sitting) and lets just say my toilet is inserious need of some cleaning ( 5 year old boy with no aim.. I have sat in a lot of pee)

So much fun, but today no littles. Today I shut my door, turn off my phone, and hide from the world….and catch up on that stack of paper and bills that I have been pushing aside this week. (BLAH) And maybe a few other goals; toilet cleaning, laundry, mopping (everything is dirty and sticky!) Also going to try and spend a little time with the pup. (he gets so jealous when he isn't the center of attention) And maybe even spend a little time sitting alone, grown up drink in hand, enjoying a bit of quite time…. Maybe.

Interent stuff that I have been browsing this week (usually while the littles get tv time and watchi the disney channel.. not cool disney, annoying disney.)

It rained a lot this week, and it was fantastic. I love summer rain. I love to play in rain, I love to watch the sky turn grey and big storm clouds roll through.. Add in a little thunder and lightning.. even better. I think the only issue with I have when it rains is when it floods the basement. That and wet dog.(Washer smells like something died when he is wet)

And as usual, this week we did, we went, we came back. We took in a little for a the weekend and had the greatest of times. Puddle splashing walks, waffles, carrots, and lot and lot of gardening. But now I am tired. So today, like every Sunday, I am going to try and take a little breather and catch up on my, "me time". And maybe I'll get a nap in since last night I got almost zero sleep because the little and the Mr. were all cuddled up and I ended on the edge of the bed receiving a pretty aggressive kick in the back every time I was about to nod off. (She is lucky I didn't make her sleep in a laundry basket).

Anyway, here is some internet fun from the week.
