whew…it was fun, but i am glad past weekend is over!
Friday…
this almost-32 year old-mom-of-two does not deal well with two consecutive nights of going out, too many adult beverages, and very little sleep! my company holiday party was friday night which i was in charge of planning – so after all of that work for 250 people, i was ready to tie one on!
Saturday…
saturday morning was rough (putting it mildly), but scott was a godsend and took the kiddos outside for a while as we woke up to our first Chicago snowfall! we live on the 2nd floor with lots of trees, so it looks like we are living in a snowy treehouse - so pretty.
then, jack had his first soccer “practice” – it was worth every penny to see the pure joy on his face when he stepped into the complex – more of #9’s first kicks later…
saturday night was my annual xmas dinner/night on the town with my best friends from chicago. it was a blast as usual with these ladies, even though i couldn’t enjoy myself as much as i would have liked from my “overage” on friday. Who knew that we would have to visit 5 different bars to find one open at 12am on a Saturday night in Chicago? Seriously?! Special CONGRATS to Courtney and Ian who got engaged that morning – we are so excited for you!
Sunday…
was the day for NEW TRICKS for Miss Emma Grace!
In the past 2 days she seriously learned how to wave hello, kiss on command (yes, like a puppy), pivot to a sit from a crawl (uh, awesome), play peek-a-boo, eating some solids by picking them up, and is pulling up on EVERYTHING that she can stand! It was CRAZY to watch her do all of these things – AHHH!!!! It is scaring me that in a short 2 months she might be walking around like Jack was.
We also got our Xmas tree (literally one of the last Frasiers at Home Depot...oops!) and are putting up the lights/ornaments this week –Jack walked out to the hung stockings yesterday and said “Mommy! Did SANTA come last night? Is it Christmas Day???!!!!” It made me so excited for the look on his face 12/25!
Here’s to a week of recovery! :-)
