Happy Friday peeps! I am so happy to have made it to the
weekend! This week was extra exhausting with baseball, Jackson’s birthday, a
school field trip, tonight we are going to a family dinner out and I am just
getting over a 24 hour bug that had me pretty well down and out. I feel much
better now thank the Lord! And I am here to tell you one of the worst feelings
has got to be taking care of kids when you are sick. This doesn’t happen often
but man when it does it feels like an eternity and you have a huge pity party
for yourself. Or at least I do. Do these little beings realize how much they
are asking of you or doing to you? You don’t feel good but you don’t want to be
mean to these ungrateful souls. You just want them to stop asking questions
about stupid things like more juice, more chips, or to go outside, until you
feel better. Ugh it’s maddening and this is where I have to pull the
self-control out of the depths of my being and find my sweetest voice in order
to not snap. And then when I feel better I realize I was such a jerk for
feeling this way… but sometimes you just can’t help but feel sorry for
yourself, right?
Tomorrow is Jackson’s birthday party! It’s a ninja warrior
theme and we are having it at a new little gym in Chattanooga where they have
an obstacle course for the kids. It’s called Modern Play. They have been super accommodating and helpful with any request we've had. I am looking forward to seeing how much fun
the kids have.
I would like to tackle some spring cleaning in my house this
weekend. How in the world do we accumulate so much junk so quickly?!? I just
don’t understand. We get rid of stuff multiple times during the year, either
tossing it out or giving it to charity and it just piles back up again. I feel
like I need to throw everything out and start again some times. And kids don’t
make it any easier. They think they have to hold on to everything under the
sun, toys they haven’t played with in half a year, the .50 cent plastic favor
they got from Jimmy’s 2nd birthday party, all the rocks
they sneak into the house after I repeatedly tell them NO! … And they pitch the
biggest fit over it. So basically I just take it all while they are sleeping
and they never know. I know that’s awful but I can’t be the only one who does
this?!? I mean if I don’t do it that way
we will never get rid of it. So I am hoping to have a huge pile of things to
get rid of in the next few days. Wish me luck!
I was feeling yellow recently... and yellow and navy just pop when put together. This SKIRT is from J Crew Factory is so much fun and every time I wear it I get asked where its from. Their side walk skirts come in lots of different colors and patterns throughout the year. Right now this skirt isn't available but check back often because they constantly change up the patterns and colors. You can find some super cute ones. The yellow top (similar) and Navy Cardigan are both from Loft and the shoes are super comfy from Belk, a brand called Hokus Pokus. Happy shopping!
Hope ya'll have a great weekend!
Love Heather
