Weekends SUCK

1. The chili

We had a good night on Friday night.  We made chili.  The boys helped me mix all the ingredients and then we sat down and actually had something besides chicken fingers.  Dinner turned into a dance party...but what else would you expect out of team awesome?  Soooooo.....I added a picture of my chili this evening before work.  Yes...piled with crackers and cheese and then right below that is a picture of Owen's bowl on Friday night....piled with crackers and cheese.  We are like two peas in a pod.  (At least when it comes to our chili)

2. Beautiful weather
It has been another great fall.  The boys have been able to play outside a lot and we have had a lot of fun enjoying the crisp fall air.  NOT looking forward to big, heavy coats and the winter.  Yay for fall!!

3. My friends
Many times it is difficult for me to spend time with my friends over the weekend.  The past weekend Krista was in town and I had to cancel at the last minute because I was too tired to have a quick playdate, shower, pick up the house, and prepare for the next night at work.  I am still grateful that she calls when she is in town, that we are still able to pick up where we left off, and that I have friends who help keep our lives filled with joy!

4.  Potty training
Owen is done.  I think.  Yesterday he pooped into the potty standing up.  Yes, he turned around and propped his butt onto the toliet bowl and started pooping.  Hey...it made me laugh SOOOOO hard AND at least he is going in the potty and not in his pants.

5. My parents
Really....over the top helpful.  Over the top.  I could not survive life without them.  Extremly grateful and extremly blessed.
