Housework, Giggle and Run, and Babies

June 26, 2008 By Melanie Edwards 3 Comments

Eeek! It’s been almost a week since I posted.

And what a week it’s been!

(Don’t worry, the title will make sense soon.)

Let’s see – we went to a friend’s house over the weekend and stayed overnight.

She has a 3 month old baby girl and a 5 year old little boy and it’s been at least a year since we had seen each other!

Needless to say, the baby is a.do.ra.ble! And, it was hilarious to watch my 2 year old baby girl play hide & seek with her son. It was more like “giggle & run” than actual hiding.

Of course, it was back to the work week after that – and it’s been a busy work week!

Where does the time go when you’re sitting in meetings each day?

But, I do have to say that the husband and I have been trying to stick with our managing housework schedule and we’ve actually kept up with it this week! He’s been great help and took on the sweeping and mopping last night while I cooked dinner!

Thankfully, I have a 3 day weekend coming up and hopefully we’ll be able to organize and paint our office.

Great plans for the weekend, huh? But, when you’ve been having fun the past few weekends, it’s time to take a break and give the house some TLC too.

What are your big plans for this weekend?

    I think we have a busy weekend planned. Birthday party to go to on Friday night, art class for MonkeyBoy on Saturday, D&D Saturday evening, a Tweetup in Omaha Saturday night, and we want to see WallE and Wanted…I’m tired just thinkin’ about it. 🙂
