Monday
We had a pretty uneventful day at home, we didn’t go
anywhere or do much of anything until we had to pick Kaleb up from work to take
him to the chiropractor. He’s been going three times a week so it’s turned into
our Monday, Wednesday, Friday tradition.
It was definitely a second cup of iced coffee kind of a
day….no shame in that!
After the chiropractor we came home, made and ate dinner,
and decided to go for a walk to Starbucks. We sat outside and let the boys play
after a yummy cake pop treat. They loved it.
Tuesday
We spent the day at Papa’s house since I went running with
my sister and we were home in time for the boys to get a nap in the afternoon.
Oliver had gotten in trouble for something and his form of
punishment was not being allowed to play with any sort of weapon for a few
days…this was the confiscated weapon stash from JUST my parent’s house…sheesh!
Pictured above is Harper and I’s nightly cuddle sesh before
bedtime. So sweet…
Wednesday
We got up and enjoyed some breakfast…this was a momentous
occasion that had to be documented…my boys don’t normally eat a whole lot at
any one meal, they like to try and get away with snacking all day. For
breakfast that morning they ate the ENTIRE container of Greek yogurt between
the two of them…that thing costs like 5 bucks! To the poor house we go if they
keep up that craziness…
Harper got lots of brother cuddles once they were finished
eating. The boys love to stop and check on her or give her kisses while they
play, it’s really sweet.
That afternoon Oliver had his first dentist appointment! He
was really excited to go and handled it like a champ! He got his x-rays done
and got his teeth cleaned. He felt like such a big boy and got to leave with a
coloring book and a balloon.
Thursday
We started our morning out by going to Papa’s house so that
I could go running with my sister. We ate lunch, showered, and got ready to
head up to SLO for the day.
I had a couple of gift cards to Forever 21 that I had gotten
for my birthday so we made that our first stop! After a couple of hours of
shopping there we drove downtown to hang out in Starbucks for a bit. It was a
really fun relaxing day hanging out with all of my siblings!
That night we picked Kaleb up from work and he surprised us
by taking us to Olive Garden for dinner!! It’s one of our favorite places to
eat and we don’t get to go there often so that was a treat.
Friday
We decided to have a day at home to relax so the boys got to
finish up their breakfast sitting on the front steps together. They loved it
and were giggling to each other the whole time.
We decided to head outside and blow bubbles, which was most
definitely the highlight of their day! I wish I could have bottled up all of
the giggling that was going on cause it was awesome!
We came inside and decided to color some Toy Story coloring
pages together. The boys had a lot of fun doing that and naming each color they
chose to use.
We ate lunch, watched a movie, and the boys went down for
their afternoon nap. While they were sleeping I got to enjoy some leftover
Easter candy, Les Mis for the first time, and some sweet baby cuddles!
Once the boys got up we had planned on going to the park for
a bit before picking Kaleb up for his chiropractor appointment but it ended up
being way too windy! So instead we burned up some time by stopping at Starbucks
instead….totally a legit excuse right??
Saturday
We loved spending our Saturdays walking all over town before
I got pregnant with Harper and this was the first Saturday since I had her that
we were able to do that for the entire day. We started out by walking to the
bank and decided to head over to Starbucks to grab a drink and let the boys
play outside like they normally do. We always walk past the See’s candy shop
but never go in. This time Kaleb surprised us by taking us in to buy some
chocolate. As soon as we got in line a lady came up behind us and said “This
might sound weird but my friend wants to buy your family some chocolate!” and
she handed us money to do so….sweetest lady ever! She stood and talked to us
for a few minutes and admired the kids. She was very nice!
After Starbucks we stopped at one of the parks nearby to let
the kids play and I’m so sad that I didn’t get any pictures of them. They were
able to do some rock climbing and playing on the playground. We decided it was
time for lunch because everyone was starving so we headed over to one of our
favorite places, Wendy’s, and indulged in some delicious chicken sandwiches!
YUM!
Here’s Oliver looking cool while we wait for our food.
We stopped at a couple of stores on the way home to look
around and we were pretty much worn out from walking all day. We must have done
about 6 miles worth of walking that day.
Kaleb stayed home with all of the kids to give them baths
and watch a movie while I ran to the grocery store. We normally all go together
but I’ll admit it was a little nice to have some alone time even if it was just
the grocery store!
Sunday
We went to church Sunday morning like we always do, had
lunch with my family at Red Robin, and headed home to relax for the afternoon.
It was so great cuddling with Harper and chatting with Kaleb while the boys
napped. We left the slider open to enjoy the fresh air and it was wonderful.
