Good morning…it was an early one at our house today.
We snuck out of the house like thieves in the night and headed to the surgery center so G could get new ear tubes and an adenoidectomy. OUCH!
If we were really meeting for coffee I’d have to invite you to our house so I can cuddle my pint-sized redhead while we dish about our weekend and the upcoming week.
So did you do anything fun this weekend?
We went to our last home Hawkeye game of the season on Saturday which will put an end to the football talk until next Labor Day. {I can hear you rejoicing in the streets} Trust me I’m doing a smidge bit of rejoicing as well, because I”M GETTING MY WEEKENDS BACK! Yeah just in time for holiday chaos…SIGH…
Seriously, I think my calendar MUST be wrong, because it’s telling me that next Thursday is Turkey Day. Like REALLY? So soon. I feel like it was just yesterday that we were at the pool, and watching fireworks for the fourth.
Now I’m thinking Christmas cards, turkeys, Holiday decorating…YIKES. Make it stop, make it stop.
Ok…whew…deep breath.
Please tell me I’m not the only one freaking out here…please…One bright and shining spot in the holiday chaos is the fact that my mom will FINALLY be here. They came this weekend to drop off the Corvette {yep, you can’t drive it that far you know… cause it’s like all fancy and stuff}, and my stepdad had a job interview. Wish him luck…it would be THE PERFECT job for him. We enjoyed a family breakfast at the Iowa Machine Shed {YUM} which I’m looking forward to doing more, and then mom and I headed to the mall.

I have to admit that I was quite disappointed in Northpark Mall. It used to be THE SPOT, but now it’s awful…I think I’ll be having mom come to IC for shopping from now on. I’m just sayin’.
And now I’m home today and tomorrow. They say G will have issues eating so I had B2 buy him some smoothies so we can try those. Poor little guy…
Well, I better run. Gotta get a shower in before the little guy wakes up.
Have a great day and head over to Amy’s I’m sure she has something brewing.
>awww, hope your little guy is feeling better here in the next day or so, poor thing. i am in such denial about christmas and all the things i should be starting on…why don't i ever start early!!?? thanks for coffee this morning!
>Man I totally know what you mean by the crazy speed of the calendar right now. We don't even really have plans to celebrate Thanksgiving and I *still* can't believe it's next week. Christmas is ramping up earlier here because we have to ship gifts home. So we've been doing lots of Christmas shopping and I know things are just going to move fast between now and the new year. Ugh, practically hyperventilating just thinking about it!
Anyway have fun with your mom and I hope little G feels better soon!
>NOT a fun way to start the day, hope he feels better soon! Thinking luck filled thoughts towards your stepdad. Also, your mom has the prettiest hair!
>LOVE the sleeping picture. There's just nothing more precious than a baby heavy with sleep.
