♥ A day in the life of ME

This week has been so busy.. 

I am behind on editing, behind on laundry, behind on everything. and i couldn't even tell you why? I normally am on top of everything :( I think it has something to do with the fact that i had my period last week and i just felt horrible.. yucky miserable crampy.. just yucky. That and Nick got paid so we were out running around a little bit more... any free time i have has been spent with family or doing things around the house.

Last Thursday me and Nick got into a huge fight.. he slept on the couch and i refused to be nice. I do that the day before my period.. and then always feel horrible afterwards. We made up and things are great now. Last Friday I spent the day paying bills, cleaning house, buying groceries, and doing laundry. Fun fun. Then Saturday we went with Kristen to a place called Cakes by Noor which is where the above picture was taken.  Then we went to Kohls and I got some picture frames and such. Nick got home and we went down to Kristens house [his parents live with them] and spent the night. They live 45 minutes south of us so it is a little bit of a drive to get there but it was fun. Sunday we spent the day with family and went to a family dinner where Nick got to see his cousin Brian who he hadn't seen in months. It was a good time :)

Kayleigh [she is 2 months old and was 7.9 at birth and is 10.9 and 23 inches now].

She is Nicks cousins baby.

Monday we just hung around the house because i wasn't feeling really great and didn't feel like getting out and about. Tuesday we went to walmart and got Tangled and some other stuff we needed and then Wednesday Kristen came over in the morning for a few hours until she got called into work. So we went with Nick to eat lunch and then to the party place and to get some more cookies from Cakes by Noor :) Then when he got off work we went over to my mom and dads and then the 3 of us [mom, dad, me] went up to the hospital to see my great grandma who is dying :(. They gave her 48 hours. 

I went today and got me a new dress. I rarely buy myself stuff.. which is probably made clear by the amount of stuff my kids have. [pictures below to prove it!] I really really like it and Nick does too so that made me feel alot better about spending so much on me :) 

MacKenzie [2 year old]'s shirts, a few of her sweaters, and her shoes. 

Kenzie's dresses [65 of them), Mhorgan's short sleeved shirts, and Mhorgan's dresses (45 of them). 

This doesn't include their dressers.. Mhorgan has a 6 drawer dresser full of clothes and MacKenzie has a 4 drawer dresser full. yeah.. too much.

So buying me a new pair of shorts, a dress, and some jewerly really didn't make me feel too bad because normally I spend all my money on my children.  Which is good.. but sometimes a mommy needs some new stuff!!! We are going to go through our clothes and get rid of all the stuff that we {1.} Never wear, {2} doesn't ft us, {3} just don't like. I have a ton of stuff that doesn't fit me because while Nick was in Kansas city in November/ December i gained weight.. 10 pounds to be exact. It was right around the time the new birth control i started took effect so that might have something to do with it but i doubt it. I think i'm just fat. I don't even want to get into self body image because i have a horrible one. 

Moving on.

I have been trying to get out with my kids more and do stuff.. the fact that for the past week it has been super duper cold doesn't help that at all though. Maybe it will warm up this week while Nick is on vacation :)

This week we are hoping to get to go see Finnleigh, Kaya, and Zoey. Finnleigh is his brothers little girl who was born with all the problems from her delievery.. she is 6 weeks old and is getting so big!

Mhorgan is totally in love with her and so is MacKenzie. They are both asking for a baby brother/ sister almost every single day now. :-/

We are having a tangled party for the girls on the 10th. I am looking forward to it. 16 girls were invited so hopefully half of them can come at least :) We have the favor bags... my mom is making a really awesome cake.. and we are planning on movie/ cake/ snacks/ popcorn/ and just letting the girls play :)

I am so tired and have so much to do tomorrow and this weekend is going to be sooo busy.. busy day tomorrow.. busy day saturday.. and busy day sunday. Lets hope i can make it through without passing out :) I will update monday :)
