Ready or not...

So, this is it... my last week of maternity leave....

All of the projects that I have had planned for the past 11 weeks...well, lets just say I'm trying to cram them into one short week. (I'm blaming my friend Beth and our coffee dates for the cramming! Yes, Beth I know you are reading this!)

The biggest project was organizing for the garage sale I'm having the first weekend of August. Today I sorted everything into boxes per price. So, that's one project down... now, back to the other 143,000...

My biggest feat for this week will be planning a menu for the next month to make it easier transitioning back to work and coming home to three children... I say three because Kevin is one of the pickiest eaters I know.

And now, the greatest news yet... I found a blog with pre-made menus! WHOOP WHOOP!

I will share! http://www.confessionsofahomeschooler.com

Summer fun

So my 12 week maternity leave is coming to an end soon... I'm not sure what is harder to believe- that it went entirely way too fast or that Eian will be 3 months old in three weeks.

Now that we have a routine down and it is a holiday week, we are going to go to Omaha for the weekend. We plan on visiting the zoo and we are staying at the indoor water park... yes, we know it is the hottest week this century... good thing the zoo has a lot of indoor exhibits!

In addition to that and Yankee Doodle Pops tonight and parade tomorrow... Avery is officially in sports now! Busy week for sure!

Ok, just Bam Bam tball sports...but still... I am now the mom with the lawn chairs in my trunk.

I haven't gotten completely comfortable screaming for my child as I am spectating... I am used to doing this at Packers games and their is usually a relaxing beverage in my hand making it not so ridiculous to yell. But I'm sure over time my "mom proudness" will take over!!

Have a happy 4th of July!
