Don’t worry, I didn’t fall off the face of the earth. Seriously, I don’t know how moms could possibly have the time to clean their houses, work, take care of the kids, and blog. I can barely do on of those things a day. The hubby hurt his back in January and has been out of work since then and in case you didn’t know disability doesn’t pay much so I’ve had to work a few shifts at my old job, they’ve all been partial night shifts so it’s not that bad but I’m exhausted the next day and my husband can’t help with Pookie because of his back. The good news is my husband had some diagnostic tests done yesterday and the doctor thinks he knows what the issue is so my hubby is going in for a minor procedure on Thursday, hopefully that’ll be the end of that nonsense.
On Tuesday I’ll be having some ladies from my mom’s group come over for a baby play date.(Check out my past post on Dating Other Moms, and then go join a moms group so you can get your social life back!) I’m having 8 ladies over, 6 that I’ve met before and two new ones who happen to live in my town. I think I’ll make banana bread and I’m not sure what else, probably something more lunch-y since this shindig starts at 11am. Do you have any suggestions as to what I should make, maybe a Pinterest inspired dish?
Speaking of Pinterest I have four more toilet paper tubes for my wall decor project I wrote about a few days ago!(Check it out here!) 13 down, 27 to go until it’s big enough to hang up(I was really hoping to have it finished by Tuesday but I don’t think that’s going to happen :-/)
I’m also going to be getting Pookies 6 month photos done, yes I know he’s really 7 months ::mom fail:: but I want to do them and now he can sit up on his own! I think for this weekend I’m going to make him a super cute bow tie for the pictures, I was inspired by my friend Jessica that sells adorable bows and bow ties in her Etsy shop La Cintre Boutique. I think I’ll make a blue tie to go with this blue argyle sweater vest I just bought for Pookie today(I’ll definitely post on here that whole process, it LOOKS easy enough). This is one of the outfits I’m considering putting Pookie in for the pictures, what do you think? I’m loving the suspenders.
Here’s one of Jessica’s bows that’s available on her site, she can also make custom bows/bow ties if you want one for an older child. This one would be great for Easter!
In other news, I’ve created a Facebook page, go check it out and like it please. I also have a Pinterest page that I just set up, I’ve been very busy as you can see.
What are you going to be doing this weekend and in the coming week? Any craft projects, cleaning, cooking, maybe a night out with your hubby? Let me know and maybe you’ll inspire my next post.
