Rain, Rain, Go Away...

Happy soaking wet morning to you all!

It is day 5,982 of straight rain.  Ok, duh, that is an exaggeration but it sure feels like.  It was sooooooooo very hard to get out of bed this morning listening to all the rain and thunder.  But, I did what I had to do.  Push snooze until the last possible moment and rush like a mad woman to get out the door on time.  Although I have found it is harder to do those things with a 14 month old demanding all your attention.  (Yes, she is very selfish.)

And to top it off, the girl wouldn't give me a good picture this morning!  Doesn't she know how unbelievably cute she is?  I wouldn't want the camera off of me if I was her!

The closest I got was this moving picture.


And the rest went like so:


She couldn't even give me a break in the car!


She is a handful but I make the hard sacrifice to put up with her.

Well, hoping everyone is staying dry and safe in the Midwest!!!!  Have a happy weekend!

Weekend Recap and Weather Griping

Seriously the Mother Nature, can we pick a season and stick with it?!?!?!  I guess I shouldn't be surprised anymore having lived in the Midwest for 20 years.  Oh God, did I just type 20 years!?!  Please excuse me while I got put on some more eye cream and get my cane.  Anywhoo back to the subject.  Is it too much to ask to be able to actually have a spring and not jump from snow to awful humid heat please?
Rain? Really?  

Despite the fact it rained almost all day Saturday (even though Mr. Weatherman said it was supposed to be sunny) we took Miss Sophia to have some one year photos and did some retail therapy with a bestie and of course had our standard Chinese food lunch date.

Oh hey everyone, How you doin'?

Sunday weather was amazing! It was a non stop day, had errands to do in the morning, cleaning/organizing and then went to a first year birthday for a friend of ours and then more organizing   I didn't realize how tiring it was until 8:30 pm came around and I was nodding off.  Worth it though, got a lot of stuff pulled for garage sale we are going to have in a few weeks.

How was your weekend?  Hope you all had a good one and here's to a great week!

Peace Out Peeps! About to get my daycare on!
