Weekend Recap…don’t worry, it’s not exciting so don’t get your hopes up…

Friday was a terrible, awful no good, very bad day…at the office. There were tears shed. Drama ensued. Phone calls where made. Whispers spoken.

And all by me. Not by one of my staff while discussing someone hurting their feelings. My feelings were not hurt. But my frustration level was boiling over. In the form of sobs to Linda. Who in no way needs another crazy lady in her life crying. Yet there I was.

It’s more of that fence-straddling thing at which I seem to be getting zippo better at navigating.

Thankfully, Friday ended with me laughing and snuggling with my daughter. So by the time I put her down to bed, I had completely let all the work drama go and was blissfully smiling as I feel asleep.

Chris came in sometime around midnight from the season’s first football game.

Which, unfortunately, they won.

Now, ya’ll remember last year my SIL’s high school football team finally won a game and she was so excited, she cried with joy.

This is why I am not a teacher. To heck with the kids and their victory. I’m only concerned about the impact said victories will have on the continuation of my husband’s marching season.

One day, many, many years from now when Aubrey Kate is in the band or dance team or cheerleading, I will enjoy the games thoroughly. Because I will have the joy of watching my child be a part of that. I loved the experience in high school.

I get it.

Doesn’t mean I’m pulling for them right now though.

Literally, I didn’t find out they’d won until sometime Sunday. Although that was largely because Chris slept all day Saturday.

All day.

I think he woke up to eat and that was it.

Poor guy is wiped.

AK and I had a fairly normal day around him. Bottle, play mat, bumpo, washing dishes, folding clothes, swing, nap, cleaning out refrigerator, bath, making another onesie…you know, general stuff.

The most important thing to note about me and this weekend was it was one of those Friends and Family discount weekends for Gap/Banana Republic/Old Navy.

And I did not go shopping.

I know. Breathe deep.

I’m not sure how the BR Outlet is going to survive without me. Or me without them for that matter. But it must be done.

Sunday was another blissful day with Aubrey Kate. She is giggling up a storm now. For some reason, she finds having her hands cleaned hilarious. And taking off her oneise. We think maybe her hands are ticklish?

She is also doing less talking and more screaming these days. Not sure when she will understand the concept of “inside voice” but I’m gonna keep saying it nonetheless.

So here are some of the latest pictures. Every day I think I can’t love my little family more and then I walk in to find Aubrey Kate and Chris having these precious moments. My heart is just over-flowing.
