How was everyone’s weekend? Ours was BUSY and I’m already feeling burnt out on May when we’re only 13 days in 😩 I fit in too many appointments on Friday, followed by two Saturday events and then we hosted Mother’s Day brunch at our house. To top it all off, we’ve been doing some sleep training with our Lydi girl and it has me feeling pretty emotional. All that being said, it was a lovely Mother’s Day and I felt so loved and appreciated and thankful to be a mom and have so many wonderful moms by my side 🩷🥰
Got my toes fixed, my nails done, my groceries delivered, dinner cooked and did some work on Friday and then we had a relaxing dinner at home with the kids. We ended up hiring a sleep consultant to help us with both kids so we started with Lydi on Friday and I won’t lie, bedtime was rough 😢 She slept through the night for the first time in a looooong time though and I even had to wake her up in the morning!
Saturday morning, we got ourselves ready and headed out for breakfast at Rise & Shine. Lydi can’t eat eggs or a biscuit but she loves a hash brown! Dempsey wanted a plain biscuit with jam then asked for some of my sausage and egg and made himself a sandwich 😂 Afterward, we took them to the park at Sloan’s Lake to play before the Cystic Fibrosis walk. It was a really nice morning for it 😊 Got everyone back home for lunch and got Lydia down for her nap then packed back up and headed to Senora’s first birthday party. It was such a sweet celebration and what a joy to see all the kids together. Dempsey got nailed in the head by a football but it was otherwise a lovely time. Back at home, leftovers, bath and bedtime for the kids and then me falling asleep on the couch afterward 😂
Happy Mother’s Day to all the mommies! I woke up to presents from my babies (and their dad) then had until 10 to get ourselves and the house ready for brunch. It was a really nice gathering. Crazy to think Lauren was going to the hospital last Mother’s Day and now Landon is days away from turning 1! We all hung out till noonish when Lydia went down for her nap and then everyone else packed up and left. Afterward, Joey, Dempsey and I rested on the couch. Once Lydia was back up, I played with the kids while Joey took over salad making duty for me. Then the sun came out!!! So we spent the rest of the afternoon outside, which was so refreshing. Leftovers for dinner and then the roughest night yet with Lydia at bedtime. She did sleep through the night again though, so I hope we are doing the right thing for her and all of us.
Happy Monday!
