Weekend Recap

We had another great family-filled weekend. On Friday I was happy that we were both working from home because around 10 am it started snowing like crazy.


We ended up with about 8 inches. We didn't let the snow ruin our normal Friday night plans with Rich, Tif and the kids though. We made our way through the snow and picked up dinner and headed over to their house. We had fun just hanging out and playing with the kids. The snow mostly stopped while we were there  so going home wasn't bad. 

On Saturday, we got up and went out to breakfast before I headed to the salon to get my hair colored. While I was at the salon, Michael worked on assembling Ethan's closet organizer system. It looks so nice and we have so much storage.


After Michael showed me the closet we headed off to order new carpet for our house. We have needed new carpet for a while now. We have crappy builders grade carpet and it's really worn. We thought this was the perfect opportunity to get new carpet before our little man arrives. So all but one room in the house is going to have the new carpet, it's going to look really nice when it's done. We went with a charcoal gray.


After carpet shopping we headed to Lombard to grab some dinner before going to Arla and Teddy's to baby-sit Lily. We went to Flattop for dinner for some delicious stir fry, it was yummy as always.


After dinner we were on Auntie and Uncle duty with Miss Lily. We had a lot of fun playing with her for a couple of hours before it was time for bed. She was a perfect angel and went right to sleep. 


We just relaxed and watched tv until Arla and Teddy came home. We hung out and talked for a while when they got home before we headed out.

Today we wanted to have a just the two of us day. We got up, had some breakfast and then headed out to do our grocery shopping for the week. After doing some shopping we headed home, unloaded everything and then headed up to the nursery. Michael worked on cleaning up some of the tools and painting tarps since we don't need them anymore. I worked on going through all of Ethan's clothes to see what we have so far. I hung and folded lots of cute little clothes that he got from Christmas. We haven't even had our shower yet and he has a good amount of clothes already! I also put his toys and stuffed animals in bins in his closet. I can't wait to see it all filled up!


After filling Ethan's closet, we had some lunch and decided to bake some homemade cookies. Michael found a recipe he wanted to try for double chocolate peanut butter cookies. They are really yummy!



We relaxed in the afternoon, watched the football games (how about that blown kick by Baltimore) and then Michael made us some yummy chicken quesadillas for dinner. It was a perfect Sunday!


I hope all of you had a great weekend as well. I'm so excited it's our last full week of work before we go on vacation, let's hope it goes fast!
