crazy, crazy busy!

I have been rather busy and I realize I have not posted in awhile so this post might be rather long! lol!!

Wednesday, March 21!
It was my daughter's 1st Birthday! I can hardly believe that I am saying that...but I guess they gotta grow up. We went to the Niabi Zoo...the kids had so much fun, we saw lots of animals and rode the train! If you ask Cole if he had fun at the zoo the only thing he will say is "Ya I ride Train" and "I wanna ride hooseys (code word for carousel lol) I cannot do circles so we did not ride the hooseys..but he sure talked about them alot!!! Then we had a little get together at our house with our family! It was a perfect today, weather and all!!!

Friday, March 23
We went out with Miranda and Pj Pasturczak to Reds in North Liberty....very cool place!! We had already ate dinner so Chad and I just got an appetizer (Queso Dip and Chips) Their Queso Dip is very very good I highly reccomend it! I have heard that they have really good food, so maybe next time we will go for dinner. We didnt get there till after 8, had a few drinks, a few laughs and was home by 10:30...so nice to get out for a little bit for a little adult time!

Saturday, March 24
This morning I opened my fridge and realized I HAVE NO FOOD!! So to Iowa City we went....its so funny when you go to Iowa City its like the town sucks you in and you end up being there ALL DAY! We got to Iowa City around 10 and was there until 5...eeeks! We always have a lot of errands to run when we go there! The kids did pretty good, considering they both only had two 30 minute naps that day!

Sunday, March 25
What a beautiful day!!! I love that it can be 75 in March! Today we spent at home, since from my above post we werent at home at all on saturday hardly and it was very productive. Chad cleaned out gutters and mowed the lawn, and I pulled weeds (yes I had weeds in March blah...) did laundry, cleaned the house, cleaned out the refrigerator! Then we took a family trip out to the mall and got Sundae's! Cole was so excited about the ice cream! Then we went home and had chicken tacos for dinner...yummo!!

All in all it was a very good weekend spent with my family!! I love them so much, its weekends like this that make you appreciate what you have in life!!!!

Weekend Fun!

This weekend I didn't do anything but CLEAN!!! Spring fever hit my house and I took off!! This coming weekend we have Brynn's 1st Birthday Party, so all weekend I cleaned and organized! Lets just say by Sunday night I was exhausted! We finished our bathroom remodel, so that was exciting!! and it looks great (pics to come)!!!! A big thanks to my husband Chad Pasturczak who worked his tail off to get it done in just 3 days!!! Sunday we went to Iowa City to get some decoations for the bathroom, and just enjoyed the rest of the day at home!

This week is going to be crazy! Didn't realize that it was going to be 70 on Saturday, so now I have to clean the garage, patio and deck! uggh....lots of work but should be worth it to see my little girls face during her birthday party!!! Also very excited to see my family!! That is always a good time!

Not to mention it is my baby's 1st birthday party, BUT it is also St. Patty's day and I am part IRISH!! This makes me very excited as well! May have to do a little celebrating myself ;) Have a good week everyone!

Should have stayed in bed this morning :/

So I woke up this morning at my normal time and go to get in the shower and I hear Brynn on the monitor, I then think to myself "what in the world is she doing up already"...so I put my clothes back on go downstairs, get her some cheerios and a sippy cup and bring her upstairs with me. I close the bathroom door so she cant get out, and I get in the shower (not even sure you can classify what I took a shower, I literally put soap in my hair, washed my body and got out, because Miss Brynn was trying to eat toliet paper the whole time...ahhh...really toliet paper?). Once I get out of the shower, I am trying to get ready and she is crying, she wants me to pick her up, so I do, but now I cant get ready, so I literally have to sit on the floor with her in my lap while I blow dry my hair. At this point I decided I am going to have to go to work like this (no make up, hair a mess) because if I waste anymore time, I am then going to be LATE for work. So I grabbed Brynn, go downstairs, put her down (she doesnt make one peep the ENTIRE TIME downstairs before we leave) I open up Cole's bedroom door and say "good morning buddy, get up we need to get dressed" I hear "im tummin mom" a little to close for him to be in his bed, so I open the door a little wider and see that he is actually standing by the door, covered head to toe in POOP, and in case you didnt hear the first time, I will say it again, covered head to toe in POOP. He literally took of his diaper, and pooped on the floor! ahhhhh!!! He looks at me and says "I poop mom", I am thinking to myself "ya no kidding" lol REALLY, so to the tub we go! The day has to get better right?!?!
