Still buzzing off the performance of “I’m Just Ken,” how about you??

Started the weekend off with a Friday morning manicure then came home to work for the rest of the day. Made sure to print out our ballots before shutting down my computer and then, since it was lightly snowing that day, I made us a cozy pot of chicken pot pie gnocchi. It was really simple and quick to make, plus it totally hit the spot!

Lydia came down with a runny nose and kept me up half the night, so Joey took her downstairs in the morning to get started on waffles, while Dempsey and I slept in 🥰 Afterward, we walked up the street to the Cottage Bakery for pastries and bread and then I went on a run and went a whole 3.25 miles. I think that’s the furthest I’ve run since having kids, so that’s something! Later on, lunch and who knows what else until it was time to head out to dinner with Aunt Bean and Uncle Wayne. Dining out is always so chaotic but sometimes you just give into it and it was nice seeing my sis and Wayne, even if children were crawling all over me the whole time 😂 Got the kids to bed and finished up our re-watch of Oppenheimer. I was definitely more aware of some of the cheesy moments but it’s still so interesting, thrilling and amazing to look at!

Lydia slept so bad again but she at least slept in. I didn’t even want to wake her, she looked to sweet 🤍 Once we all finally made it out of bed and downstairs, Joey made us all breakfast and I had just enough time to eat it and dash out the door for a haircut. Back at home, salads for the week, tent set up, movie time with Dempsey and then we all played outside. It was so nice and made me excited for summer with these two kiddos!

Around 4, we all came in to watch the red carpet, fill out our ballots (Dempsey’s a big Bradley Cooper and Anatomy of a Fall guy apparently 😂) and make dinner before the Oscars started. The three of them sat at the table while I ate from the couch to better see the tv 😂😂 Dempsey seemed to have come down with Lydia’s cold and the poor guy didn’t even make it to the “I’m Just Ken” performance! Meanwhile, Lydia woke back UP just as I was putting Dempsey down, so she watched the rest of the show with us 😬🤪 And what a good one it was! Highlights for me included Cord Jefferson, John Cena, Kate McKinnon and John Mulaney but come on, Ryan Gosling stole the show. I love him so much! In conclusion, “my eyes see Oppenheimer?”
