Weekend Hijinks

Matt took off Saturday morning for a work conference in Florida, so the rest of us had big plans of a totally boring weekend at home. We are all about the stay-cation life this summer…!

Which, of course, means a visit to the farmer’s market! We may or may not buy anything actually grown on a farm, but we will always buy kettle corn - ha! You can see the boy’s totes they are carrying around. There is always an argument over the tote bags and heaven forbid I don’t fill them equally… although Nonni is also sporting one and I don’t remember her complaining. ;)

One of our friends got their baby girl a cool pair of sunglasses and I went and got a pair too. I was way more excited about them than Natalie was! You can’t really tell from the photo, but I am 99% sure she is zonked out. (She finally stopped trying to rip them off her face once she was asleep…)

The boys discovered frozen bananas today at the Farmer’s Market… For full disclosure - I may have pointed them out even though I am a banana hater. I figured they would like them and I was totally right. Good thing I love them more than I dislike bananas. ;)

Since it was such a nice day outside, the boys even talked me into taking them up to the park to play. Henry was so happy that he even gave me a real smile! :)

One thing that has absolutely been a game changer for my weekends is the ClickList option at our grocery store. I pick out the groceries on the phone app, send an order to the store, show up a few hours later and they bring me all of my groceries. I don’t even have to leave my car. It’s amazing!

Plus I have a cute helper at home to unload groceries with me. Not sure why he’s not wearing socks. But now I know why his socks have been so dirty recently… ;)

I made smoothies with breakfast this morning and the boys were so excited! I haven’t made them in awhile and they both kept going on and on about how we should do them more often. The Rainforest Cafe cups probably helped with the excitement - unfortunately I couldn’t get the smoothie out of them and decided they had reached the end of their lifespan. Hopefully the boys don’t realize they are missing for a long, long time…

Shhhhh!

The only downside to the weekend is that this girl doesn’t seem to be feeling great. She’s much snottier than usual and has definitely been having more reflux issues. Case in point - she’s wearing a blanket at the moment because she just soaked both of us.

Seems happy enough to be chilling with momma at the moment, but I hope she starts feeling better soon!
