A Relaxing Weekend

The kids and I have been a little under the weather this past weekend. We have all developed little colds that I am sure is from the weather being 80 degrees and then 45. We went from playing outside in shorts and tank tops one minute to freezing cold in sweatshirts the next. As most of you other mothers know, it is so tough to take care of sick kids while you are sick too. So, it’s been a fun few days. The positive side of it? We have definitely caught up on lots of snuggle time and watched cute little movies and shows with the babies. Of course, their attention span when it comes to T.V. is 10 minutes when we get lucky, but Hamp did make it through an entire episode of Paw Patrol.

Getting caught up on sleep, laundry and life in general was so nice last week. Did you guys notice my hiatus? I honestly can’t remember the last time I didn’t post on a week day up until a week ago, but it was a wonderful break and I really needed to get some things done around here.

Last Thursday we were leaving my parent’s house to take a contractor over to another house that we were about to put an offer on. We were so excited about this one. It had 4 bedrooms plus and office and a playroom and just seemed too good to be true. Apparently it was because on our way out the door, our realtor called us and told us that someone had just signed a contract on it. We were once again devastated. This is the second time we have found a home and something crazy happened. We have been very discouraged and are so ready to be in our own house. We have found a third and I’m almost scared to say anything, but we are taking a contractor over there tomorrow because it literally needs to be gutted. The entire house. We aren’t sure if we will be able to do all of the work that it needs so we will hopefully have more answers this week. Please say a prayer that it all works out! It is a cute house with a big back yard and has a lot of potential. Here’s to hoping this is “the one.”

I hope you have all had a wonderful weekend! Did you have any big plans?
