Our weekend - April 17-19, 2015

Friday was my day off and we started it with a bang....laundry and lots of it! HAHA! We ate breakfast, snuck in some Scandal episodes, played with toys, and got rid of the mounds of laundry. We played on the back deck for a while, and I uttered the words "If you lick the deck one more time, we are going inside!" The things you says to toddlers! Myla had decided she wanted to pour all  of her water on the deck floor and drink it off of that.....geez!!! Once Brian got home, we all got ready and headed to eat at Pancho Villa. We ate outside and enjoyed the awesome weather! I ate a few too many chips and Myla was slightly cranky since she didn't nap all day until she fell asleep when we were almost at the restaurant. Oh, kids! After dinner, Brian took us to Alum Springs Park. I had never been and Myla was once again a happy camper since she got to go down lots of slides and swing. Bryce loved it too. Then, we all headed to Brian's playoff football game. Brian, of course, dressed Bryce is Myla's hand me down Supergoats jersey and I tried to wrangle Myla into the man made cage we created so she couldn't escape. She met a little girl and they played together for a while....cutest thing ever! Her other little buddy (I use the term loosely as they have only hung out one other time I think) Cameron was there and he was trapped in the cage too. They all fought over toys, snacks, and sippy cups and tried to escape the cage, but all in all, they had loads of fun. And so did I. I got to see lots of my girlfriends and was especially excited to see my preggo bestie and her family. It was so good to catch up a bit with her. Brian won and we headed home. It was way past Mommy's the kids bedtime.

On Saturday, we had planned to have a date day. While we were waiting for the "babysitter", Bryce stayed standing at his play table for a lonnnnngggg time. He didn't stand up there on his own. We placed him there, but he stayed up!

Then we decided to take Bryce's overdue 8 month photos and happened to capture some priceless pics....

We headed out around 10am (yes, that is what time you go on a date when you have 2 kids under 2) We were finally going to see Fast & Furious 7. I needed to see my main man crush, duh! I thought the movie was ok (TONS OF ACTION - a bit too much for me) and it made me cry at the end. Of course, we all saw that coming! After the movie and tons of popcorn, we headed to Outback for lunch. Let me tell you - it was soooooooo nice to have a meal at a restaurant that I got to eat while it was hot and I didn't have to share. Can you tell I like my food? HAHA! Don't get me wrong, I love my babies, but boy was this date MUCH needed! Now, if only I could get Brian to stop watching the Nats game that was playing on the tv above my head - HAHA! We stopped by Charlie Brown's closet on the way home to see if they had anything cute for the kiddos and then headed home to our babies. We headed to the park to play because it was just way too gorgeous not to. Myla played on the slides and the swing and Bryce fell asleep in the stroller on the approximate 1 minute walk to the park. Needless to say, he missed out on park time. Then, we all played in the driveway with sidewalk chalk. This was Myla's first time using it and let's just say it does get a little messy, but she had fun.

Hey Brian, is that a pink bag you are carrying?!?

We headed inside around 6pm, did bath time, and bed time. Then, it was time for Brian and I to continue our One Tree Hill marathon. Why are we hooked on this show?!

I LOVE weekend mornings. I love how we get to be lazy and relax in bed. Myla watches Minnie Mouse and Bryce chugs his bottle and we all just get to lay around. It really is so nice not to be rushed to go to work! Anyhoo, Sunday morning included lots of cuddles and relaxing. My parents were out of town watching D.J. play, so we didn't have any plans for the day. Bryce, Myla, and I headed to the back deck because the sun was shining! Bryce drank another bottle and fell asleep and Myla dumped all of her water on the deck again. (at least she didn't try to lick it up today - WIN) I put Bryce inside to sleep and Brian watched him while Myla and I got our tan on. Ok, just me. Myla had other things to do like dumping her water alllllll over the place and trying to sit on Peanut. (poor dog)

The weather started to cool off and so we decided it was time to head to Walmart to get some groceries for the week. We were suckered into buying wayyyyy too many Minnie outfits and swimsuits for Myla. She is going to have enough clothes to wear at Disney for at least 3 outfit changes a day. She is SPOILED. Bryce didn't get anything! Poor kid. (HAHA! They didn't have anything for him....he isn't neglected, I promise) We spent way to much money and headed home.
We put Myla down for her nap and quickly called in chinese delivery for lunch/dinner. (because of course we didn't have any food from the grocery store) We ate and again started a tv marathon. Bryce played quietly on the floor and we relaxed. Once Myla woke up, we did dinner and bath time for the kiddos and this little cutie tried to escape from his mommy.....

I guess he didn't want a diaper put on or was stalling bed time! We all relaxed on the couch, put the kids to bed, and then headed to bed ourselves around 9.

Toodles!
