First Weekend Home

It was so nice to get off of work on Friday and know that I got to go to to my own house and just be with the 3 of us. Of course we didn't sit around, we had lots of good things to do and Jeff did not want to do with any of it. We ran our errands, had dinner, came home and then friends started to show up. Nick went out...of course, and I got to stay with little man. It worked out well though because I got our office almost all unpacked and it's looking great.

Saturday I had an early wakeup call...Jeff got up at 7, which is extremely unusual, but now that he's in his big boy bed, I'm sure the sleeping in will keep dwindling away. I didn't mind though, I got my butt up and headed to the grocery since Nick was leaving to head to the lake to help the guys put up dear stands. I was looking forward to being with Jeff though in our own house! After Nick left, Jeff & I got ready to head to Kohl's and to the zoo. I had to take a trip to the zoo since the weater was amazing, especially for a November day. The zoo was great, although Jeff is getting to big to sit in the stoller and kept wanting to run ahead, after I got a little firm with him, things got settled down. I let him pick out a stuffed animal in the gift shop...he wanted an elephant, and this thing has not left his side all weekend. Let's see, what else...oh yeah, Jeff locked himself in his room during naptime today too...that was not enjoyable, but we managed the situation just fine...lesson learned, no more locks on doors!!! The rest of the day was just the two of us and I spent more time organizing and getting things unpacked, the house is starting to feel like home.

It was another early morning, well 7:30 this time, but we got up and got moving! We headed to Mendards to get a few things, then home to start the projects for the day. Nick was hanging y cabinets in the basement and I cleaned the upstairs...gave the floors another good washing. It looks better, hopefully our feet won't get as dirty now, but we'll see. It was quiet in the afternoon though, I missed having more people around...that was short lived though because John & Steph came over to see how the house was coming along, then Steph H stopped by too. Felt good to have people over.

Jeff & I are both sick though, he's in there coughing right now, I'm hoping it's nothing and just a little head cold, but we shall see. Well here's to starting yet another week...ugh!
